Chapter Text
"How can you be such a fool!?" Lila said when they were alone in Chloé's room, "It really isn't that hard to lie to all those idiots, but you still fail, I don't know how!"
She thought Chloé would be useful to her and could teach her how to manipulate well, but apparently she was wrong. She was too emotional, she would lose her temper at the sight of something she didn't like and screw up to the core. Her reputation, her past, didn't help either. She thought she could fake redemption, but no, she couldn't. And after manipulating her by bombarding her with love, she was the only person outside her family whose words of humiliation and disappointment could make her cry because they hurt so much.
"I really try hard, but it's not as easy for me as it is for you," she defended herself by hugging herself and looking away, though she would rather be hugged her after apologising and taking back what she had said, along with the compliments she used to give her.
