“Add to friends - Ashley Greene?” Chloe’s breath caught in her throat. The image of the girl who used to torment her was as vivid as if it were yesterday. The sharp words, the cutting remarks, the sheer, unrelenting cruelty.

Her fingers trembled as she clicked on Ashley's profile. Decades. She had made a beautiful home, she had created a successful career. She was surrounded by love. It was a long road, one she had walked alone at first.

Her gaze softened. Chloe clicked "Accept." A sense of profound contentment washed over her. She knew that she had come through, and that was all that mattered.
