Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 200

“If the hypocrisy in the world all have a mask, then Sky Song is definitely one of them. She can be called the Queen of Fake Faces.”

Cathy pulled her trousers down and sat on the sofa, with her legs crossed. She was watching at the door angrily, as if the woman whom she called the Queen of Fake Faces was still outside the door.

Jenny sat opposite to her, kind of confused, “Is your scar on your leg caused by her?”

“Nobody will believe me. When I was a kid, I liked to go to the places where there was fire. People cooked on the stoves, which was the place that I liked to stand near.”

At that time, Cathy was a guest when she came back from abroad, while Sky Song and others were hosts, who were very familiar with these places. Therefore, everyone took care of Cathy -- the youngest sister among them.

Especially Luke. Cathy was his cousin, whom he paid much more attention and took extra care of. Thus, Sky Song, originally the center of them, was ignored by them.

“I remember that was on a Winter Solstice, when several family gathered together in Luke’s home to make dumplings. Luke’s father had not come home, and aunts were all in the kitchen making dumplings. We were in the hall playing, while my brothers and sisters were in the study room on the second floor. I was thirsty and wanted some water to drink, so I pulled her sleeves.”

“Then?”

“She told me that the kettle was on the stove, and I needed to get the water myself. Otherwise, I would not have the right to eat dumplings.”

Cathy at that moment was so obsessed with dumplings that she believed it. Then she ran towards the stove on which there was boiling water. She was to touch the handle of the kettle.

The water in the kettle was boiling, so the kettle was hot enough to harm hands. When she touched it, she screamed out, and the next moment, Sky Song rushed towards her.

“I thought she was rushing towards me to help me or ask me what was the matter.”

“So she did not?” Jenny frowned.

“She was so selfish that she would not care about others.” Cathy snorted angrily. “She should have come over to overturn the kettle.”

“My God...” Jenny covered her mouth with her hands, feeling it unbelievable.

“There was something more serious.” Cathy smiled coldly. “She bent over me, so that only my legs were hurt, but her back was hurt more seriously. My parents, aunts, and the servant maids in my home all thought that it was she who saved me...”

“Didn’t you explain it to them?”

“I was too painful to say anything.” Cathy lowered her head and was playing the tassels on her clothes. “If it was happening right now, I would tell everyone the truth even though I was hurt to death.”

After that, Cathy recovered, but she was inevitably scolded by her families. She felt wronged, ans told them the truth, but the elders in her family thought she was wronging Sky Song. After all, nobody would hurt herself to wrong another person. In addition, Sky Song had gone to France, her families just thought she was making up a story because Sky Song was not there to defend herself.

The early Spring in Beijing did not has the warmth brought by the season. It was still freezing, even more freezing than the wind in the winter.

Cathy also said that she herself was not sensible enough and she liked telling lies to not shoulder her responsibility, which made Sky Song play a trick on her.

Jenny could not help holding her hands, but she did not know what to say to comfort her.

“But every thing is fine right now!” Cathy’s eyes flashes some lights. “She always thought that nobody but herself could match Luke. But you are here right now. I want to see how arrogant she can be. Well, my aunt has not come back yet. When my aunt comes back, she will not dare say anything, not even breathe.”
