Doted by Many: I became the Top-Tier Celebrity!-Chapter 493 - 492: It’s Not You 4

It seemed that the guests, at that moment, felt her emotions, causing a shiver within them.

Tiana Thorne appeared to speak of these things casually, each sentence sounding unimportant yet shockingly impactful.

But for the first time, everyone sensed the anger that emanated from her bones, along with the suffocating sympathy.

Margarett Vance’s face turned pale, intimidated by this aura: "She was already dead anyway..."

"Margarett Vance, you speak those two words so lightly and disrespectfully. Have you forgotten that the dead person you mention was the same one who, when you were bullied by seniors and beaten up at the beginning of school, endured it with you despite her illness, helped you fend off all the bad guys, sheltered you from storms, and helped you get through three years safely!"

Tiana chuckled coldly, "Since you’ve forgotten, let me remind you bit by bit, help you recall."

Margarett staggered back a step, and suddenly the scene of being blocked and beaten in the hallway by a couple of seniors during her first year flashed in her mind.

It was Mandy who saved her, and said she would protect her for life.

"You were an arts and sports student, practicing piano and guzheng made your fingers stiff and painful, sometimes missing meals because of practice, she would get meals for you and deliver them, would massage your aching fingers every night."

"She would comfort you when your parents scolded you for poor exam scores, even changing her report card name to yours so you could give it to your parents as your own."

"She would accompany you for a run and diet with you when you were losing weight."

"She would go shopping and watch movies with you every Sunday afternoon, never complaining of being tired, happily spending those high school years with you."

"She had leukemia since she was young, facing death with every illness, yet she went wild with you and dared to build snowmen with you in the dead of winter."

"In her short life, all the love and joy were given to you alone. In the end, all she amounted to in your words were two words: a dead person?"

Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to understand why Tiana was angry, and some couldn’t help but shed tears.

This kind of girl, she had already passed away, she treated Margarett so well when she was alive, and in the end, she wasn’t even worthy of having a name in Margarett’s mouth.

Tiana took a deep breath, raising an eyebrow slightly: "Now, do you remember who Mandy is? Do you need me to continue?"

Margarett’s eyes turned red, biting her lip, murmuring: "She said that living one more day was a blessing, no one wanted to be friends with her but me, her life felt truly alive, vibrant because of meeting me, that I gave her those joys and laughter, let her live like a normal person..."

Everyone listening to the words Tiana spoke felt discomfort, but refrained from saying much more, so the banquet hall was very quiet, extremely quiet. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Therefore, Margarett’s words were particularly clear, and everyone didn’t understand what she wanted to express.

Suddenly, tears fell, drop by drop: "Since I gave her a happy three years, her treating me so well is repaying me, expressing gratitude, I don’t owe her, don’t owe her, don’t owe..."

This statement was like a bomb, causing the girls who felt sympathy to explode in anger.

"She treated you so well, and not only are you not grateful, but you think it’s only natural, how can you be like this?"

"If there was a girl who treated me this well, I’d never marry anyone else."

"Even if you think you made her happy in her last three years, and she gained, can her kindness to you be erased for that? Now mentioning her, with such disrespect, how can you say it?"

Margarett bit her lip, looking up, everyone was condemning her, louder than the last.

Since her fame, who has not looked at her with admiration and envy?

How did it turn out like this...

Just because she blurted out the word dead?

Memories of certain people and things suddenly surfaced in her mind, causing her immense inner pain, her eyes reddening even more than before.

Her parents always said: "Look at Mandy, how sensible she is. If you were half like Mandy, we’d feel reassured."

Teachers also said: "Look at Mandy, her grades are so good, Margarett Vance, you two are good friends, you should learn more from her."

Classmates also said: "Margarett Vance, you can’t even compare to a leukemia patient, you and her being friends just make you her foil, if I were you, I would have stopped being friends with her long ago."

Even when she confessed to the senior she liked, he said: "Thanks for your affection, you’re great, but, I already have someone I like, she’s your good friend Mandy, can you give me her phone number?"

Mandy was better than her in every aspect, despite being a leukemia patient, she was a sick person! She should have the demeanor of a patient!

She should just wait to die every day, why work so hard, why outshine her everywhere, why overshadow her in everything?

She was just Mandy’s foil, even now that she’s dead, she still overshadows her, why, why?

"Shut up, all of you!" Margarett suddenly screamed.

Now, things were very clear, it didn’t take much thinking to know what had happened, Margarett must have stolen Mandy’s perfume to become famous, then Mandy found out, how could a girl with leukemia endure such a blow?

Eventually, betrayed by her good friend, she died in pain...

Even though the voices became quieter, they were still mocking her, whispering among themselves, every word criticizing her.

Margarett, eyes red, glared at her, angrily saying: "Tiana Thorne, you say it was her who concocted the perfume, show me the evidence! Without evidence, relying solely on your words, how can anyone believe you?"

Tiana’s face no longer carried the prior smile, colder than before, word by word she said: "The evidence is that you can’t create it, you don’t even know the key to this perfume, Margarett Vance, do you know? You’re actually ridiculous."

"Then tell me, what is the key?"

Tiana turned to everyone, at this moment, her heart was heavy, seemingly recalling Mandy’s mindset when she was formulating the perfume, slowly explaining to everyone: "The name of this perfume is actually very ordinary, it’s called Calming Fragrance, but to make it requires a lot of effort and energy, only one bottle can be concocted a year. Do you feel a flow of energy within your body right now, very comforting, making even your nerves relax?"

Everyone followed her guidance to feel, and it really was so, they nodded unanimously, looking very seriously at her, waiting for her to reveal the true meaning behind the Calming Fragrance.
