My Reborn Story Is Insane novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Backfire
He sneered coldly, though the smile never reached his eyes. "Quite different, indeed."

The woman had persistently and fearlessly provoked him. She even had the audacity to offer herself up. How could he let her go so easily?

Didn't she claim she wanted to personally treat his illness? Then he'd give her the chance—let her treat him well!

...

The Nelson Mansion.

Charmaine was packing in her room.

She only had a backpack, a laptop, and a sketchbook when they brought her back to the Nelsons a few months ago.

That was all she took with her.

But no matter how much Charmaine searched, she couldn't find the sketchbook anywhere.

Her gaze roamed around the guest room, barely twenty square feet. It seemed the last time she had drawn a design sketch was when Leah had visited a couple of weeks ago to invite her to choose a birthday dress together.

Charmaine didn't linger. She grabbed her things and walked out.

As she pushed the door open, Leah stood at the entrance. Charmaine didn't know when she had gotten there.

Upon seeing Charmaine with her luggage, Leah bit her lip and resumed her pretentious act.

"Chara."

Charmaine had no patience for Leah's act. Without a glance, she walked past her.

Leah's words caught in her throat; her expression briefly flustered as she almost couldn't hide her reaction.

She turned to watch Charmaine's graceful figure walk away, her eyes cold and malicious.

Since Charmaine returned to the Nelsons, she had always been humble, compliant, and eager to gain the family's acceptance and affection. She even generously tried to be sisters with Leah while maintaining harmony.

But Leah would never let Charmaine have her way.

With a few tricks and calculated tears, Leah successfully convinced the family that Charmaine was two-faced, pretending to be nice while secretly targeting her and bullying her. This stirred up the family's sympathy for Leah and deepened their dislike for Charmaine.

Every time Charmaine suffered such injustice, hadn't she obediently endured it?

But tonight, Charmaine was acting like a completely different person—so out of character!

She had insulted their brothers, talked back to their mother, and even brazenly declared she wanted to cut ties with the family.

Could it be she had found something out?
