After hearing Clara's words, tears filled my eyes.
After calling out, Clara chuckled and continued, "I've been calling you, but you're acting like you didn't hear me. Are you stunned? You should try it for yourself, and I promise you won't be disappointed."
Zora headed straight for Clara, who was lounging on the couch. A fight was about to break out. But Clara didn't move an inch, completely unfazed. She even dared to point at Zora, shouting, "If you dare hit me, Zora, you're done for. I can get you arrested in a heartbeat. I have my backup just like you have your dumb buddy Maddox. Just try it, I dare you. In half an hour, I'll have the cops at the door."
Clara swung her slim legs, pointing at her face, and she was confident in her threat.
Zora's hand, which had been raised, eventually dropped in defeat.
Clara laughed wickedly, "Zora, we're sisters. Why do you treat me as your enemy? I'm doing this for your good."
It hit me and I immediately sent Clara the video of Marissa shopping with that kept man. Whatever Zora was up to, I could screw her anytime. This was a golden opportunity that I couldn't miss.
Clara heard the beep and grabbed her phone. The image on the phone shook badly and settled on a corner of the ceiling. And then I heard Clara laugh weirdly. She asked, "Zora, do you want my help?"
She added mysteriously, "I've got some really useful information. After all, we are sisters, so we should help each other. I can help you deal with Marissa. What do you say?"
"What are you up to, Clara? What are you planning?" Zora's voice was laced with fatigue, evidently worn out by Clara.
"I won't hurt you. I genuinely want to help you because you're my sister, and unlike you, I don't have a heart of stone. We're related." Clara's voice was filled with taunting, "I can give you something very valuable I just got. Don't believe me?"
I was sure Clara had seen the video I sent and was now setting a trap for Zora, especially with the emphasis on the video being fresh.
"Look!" The next second, the sound from the video of Marissa started playing, then abruptly stopped.
"Give it to me." I heard Zora's voice. She was clearly hooked.
