Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 550
During Tatiana’s four years at the Solana Film Academy, Brie had worked with other schoolmates to give.
her trouble. Tatiana was a meek personality, so she endured the bullying to avoid escalation.
However, Tatiana’s fear gave way to a surge of anger after she witnessed Sean being humiliated by Josh
and saw Brie making advances toward Sean.
Tatiana had a steely look in her eyes and continued walking, completely ignoring Brie’s provocation.
“Cheap bitch! Tatiana Taylor, stop right there!” Brie called out, but Tatiana maintained her stride.
Tatiana eventually halted and turned around slowly. She grinned as Brie panted and limped toward her
with bruised and bloodied knees.
She questioned, “Cheap bitch? Who are you talking about?”
“The nerve to ask! It’s you, of course!” Brie momentarily brushed aside her physical pain to seek
vengeance.
“Oh, I thought you were introducing yourself for a moment,” Tatiana teased her without any change in
expression. That caught Brie by surprise, for she wasn’t used to Tatiana talking back.
Seizing the chance, Tatiana went for the kill, “You should take a long, hard look in the mirror before you
judge anyone. You are an escort to Josh Schmidt, the president of Schmidt Group. Is that right?
“Everyone in this city knows he’s a married man. His wife is a lovely, well-bred young lady. You can hardly
compare to her. I wonder what Mr. Schmidt saw in you. I had expected him to have better taste in women.
Infuriated, Brie barked, “You know nothing! He fell for my youth, beauty, and charm!”

“Well, perhaps he’s tired of haute cuisine and needs to take some junk food once in a while. It’s a cheap pleasure,” Tatiana
mocked.
“Junk food? Are you comparing me to junk food?” Brie’s face had turned a deeper shade of red.
“The nerve to ask! It’s you, of course!” Tatiana mimicked Brie’s remark.
As Brie couldn’t win the verbal argument, Brie resorted to slapping Tatiana across the face. Tatiana’s cheeks immediately
swelled with the searing pain coursing through her.
This wasn’t Tatiana’s first time being slapped by Brie. Brie always took advantage of her roles in theater rehearsals or
performances every semester to slap Tatiana,

She even bribed the instructors and the class president to assign Tatiana roles of sexual violence victims,
all just to satisfy her twisted desire.
“You think I won’t hurt you just because you’re now dating a rich man driving a cheap Porsche?” Brie put
on a dangerous smile. “Do you really think he can protect you? It’s all talk. When you join the
entertainment industry, only connections and money matter!
“I’m dating Josh Schmidt. I will have endless wealth to splurge for my career in the industry. If you get on
my wrong side, I might even ask him to blacklist you and end your career in Solana City.”
Tatiana listened to Brie’s hilariously delusional speech. Little did Brie know that the Schmidts and the
Taylors were family friends. Victor Schmidt had even held Tatiana when she was a baby.
Tatiana replied, unfazed, “Is that so? I hope you get me blacklisted. That will be a dream come true. Who
knows if you’re still in favor with Josh Schmidt by then?”
“You-”

Tatiana paused with a deadpan look in her eyes before leaving. She muttered, “By the way, I’ll return this
to you.”
Before Brie could process the situation, Tatiana had slapped her hard in the face. The sound reverberated
in the space.
“H-How dare you?” Brie covered her cheek in astonishment. She was shocked by Tatiana’s change in
demeanor.
“I’ll slap you when I feel like it,” Tatiana retorted and lifted her chin pridefully. The sharp look in her eyes
sent a wave of panic through Brie.
Tatiana continued, “I want you to know that I’m not a doormat. I didn’t fight back, not because I was
powerless. I simply couldn’t care enough to do that.
“Oh, and the man driving the Porsche is my lover. If you try anything funny on him, I’ll make you suffer.”
