Chapter 37 Fake’s Fake
“Yvette, you’re despicable!” Even through the phone, I could feel Moore’s teeth clenching
Her unhappiness was my joy. I chuckled. “I couldn’t possibly be more despicable than you. You’ve brazenly moved into the Youngs” old manor as a mistress. How could I compete with that? Tell me, what do you want?” I had no intention of engaging in pointless banter with her.
Perhaps sensing that Idris was not with me, she snorted coldly, no longer hiding her ambition, and said straightforwardly,” Yvette, for the sake of our sisterhood, I’m giving you a choice. Terminate your pregnancy and leave the Youngs. Then we can still be sisters in the future.”
n’t know a
v about what
I almost laughed, replying to the phone, “Sisters? Moore, you must be jolding. Do you think I don’t happened five years ago? Do you think you’ve covered your tracks so well that no one can find out?”
She seemed fearless, her voice sharp. “Find out? Yvette, what can you even find? No one believed you back then. Give up on that
I laughed. “I appreciate your concern for this kinship, but no thank you. The Young family isn’t so easy to get into, Moore. Madam Young might’ve let you into the old manor, but do you really think giving birth to a child will elevate your status? You should have more realistic dreams. Just a reminder that Madam Young cares about the incident from five years ago, so what more will she care about you, a woman who’s been married before?”
“Married before?” She practically spat the words through clenched teeth. “Yvette, if it weren’t for my last marriage, do you think you could’ve stepped into the Young household? The position of the Youngs‘ daughter–in–law should’ve been mine. You’ve usurped my place for two years, and it’s time for you to step aside now.
Listening to her, I could not help but want to laugh, “Usurped? Yvette, do you really think you’ve managed to fool everyone about what happened back then? That no one knows? Do you really believe that no one knows how you got that gunshot wound? Do you think you can manipulate Idris for the rest of your life with that wound?”
“You What do you mean?” Her tone had lost its arrogance, now tinged with panic.
Noticing her reaction, I was even more convinced of my suspicions and scoffed. “You must’ve been surprised about how quickly you were found and taken to the hospital that day, weren’t you? And even more surprised why the Youngs were so attentive to you, right? I guess you still don’t understand why Idris fell for you.”
Hearing her panic, I smiled faintly and slowly said, “I don’t want to say much. I just want to tell you that fake pearls will never shine. You can’t deceive everyone forever.”
I was amused. “If I was just acting, why would you be so nervous? Idris might have been blind to everything back then, but do you think he wouldn’t carefully think about what happened after the fact? If the details don’t match up, do you think he wouldn’t be suspicious?”
My forehead throbbed with pain. I originally thought that Moore and Idris got together because they were in love and attracted to each other. However, after discovering Moore’s gunshot wound at the Youngs‘ and considering Mr. Zachary’s words, I could not help but connect it all to what happened five years ago.
