For an extended period, I became very silent. Even with Christopher’s care and affection, my emotions didn’t change much. Humans were social animals, so when everyone rejected them, only those with a strong heart would not waver.
I was never someone with a strong will. I would be lying to say that I wasn’t affected by this incident.
Sometimes, I even felt that I hadn’t made any progress compared to ten years ago. When Crystal framed me ten years ago, I was alone and helpless. I knew the truth, but I couldn’t say it out. Now, even if I said it, no one would believe me.
I knew everything had to do with Crystal. I even knew the identity of the person who set me up. But I had no way to resolve the situation, and I had no choice but to be manipulated by their schemes.
“Eve, come and see me. I have something to tell you.”
I wasn’t surprised when I received Sharon’s phone call. What she did that day put me in such a devastating situation, and it had been going on for almost a month. Additionally, Lyle and Crystal’s wedding would be held at the end of the month.
Whatever was going to happen would happen, and there was no way to prevent it. Sharon must be anxious, and she wants to make use of me again.
“Sharon, I think I’m no longer useful to you. What more can I do for you?” I calmly faced my troubles.
Humans would become resilient when faced with an unfavorable situation. It would also make them steady and not be rash.
“Yvonne, come over. I’m begging you,” Sharon pleaded on the other side of the phone.
I held on to the phone and remained silent for some time before nodding in agreement. “Hang in there. I haven’t finished my painting yet. There’s still a little bit left to do. How about tomorrow afternoon? I will be free tomorrow.”
