My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 

What a clever plan. 

The corner of her mouth Lucille’s mouth twitched and she sneered. “My surname is Jules, while yours is Johnson. We have nothing to do with each other. How dare you call yourself my sister?” 

Zoey’s eyes darkened. In disappointment, she said, “Lucille, I know you hate me, but we grew up together. From the day Dad adopted me, we are sisters, whether you admit it or not.” 

“It seems that you’re thick-skinned, but you have a terrible memory,” Lucille stated flatly. “I’ve severed my ties with your family, so stop trying to act like we’re close. You sound ridiculous.” 

“I know you’re still angry, so let’s not talk about that first. Zoey sat down and sighed, acting like a kind and tolerant sister as much as possible. 

Even the parents beside her shook their heads, muttering that Lucille didn’t know what was good for her. 

bear Zoey added, “Lucille, the people who were sent to the detention center are all our classmates. Even if they have done something wrong, they recognize their mistakes. Do you really want them to go to jail? How can you it?” 

“Hear me out. Let them go, okay? When they’re released, they will definitely thank you. We can still learn and improve together, just like we used to,” she added. 

Learn and improve together, she said. 

Lucille couldn’t help but laugh. 

Putting everything else aside, Zoey was certainly talented when it came to manipulating people. The original host would have already been nodding her head in agreement by then. 

Even the parents around them sighed. “If Lucille were half as sensible as her sister, she wouldn’t have caused my 

child to suffer in prison.” 

That’s not true. At the end of the day, it’s just that one of them is kind-hearted, while the other is selfish and narrow-headed!” One of the parents even rolled their eyes at Lucille. 

Zoey immediately piped up, “Don’t say that, everyone. My sister is very kind. She is definitely not the kind of person who is unreasonable, selfish, and cold-blooded!” 

It sounded like she was defending Lucille, but in reality, she was digging a deeper grave for her. 

Zoey was putting her up on a pedestal, which meant that Lucille would be selfish and cold-blooded if she didn’t agree to let the students go! 

Lucille’s expression didn’t even change when she heard those words. 

She opened her mouth, and her voice was relaxed and casual. In an unyielding tone, she replied, “No. I refuse to compromise.” 

Her words were loud and clear. 

All the parents were furious. They had already begged her for mercy, but unexpectedly, she was still unwilling to let go. 

“What? Do you want us to kneel down and bow to you before you are willing to compromise?” 

“We give you compensation and apologize to you, yet you still refuse. We humble ourselves and beg you, and you still don’t agree. Let me give you some advice. Things will be easier for you in the future if you stop being so stubborn. You’re so hell-bent on making an enemy out of everyone. If you ever get into trouble someday, everyone will hit you while you’re down!” 

Almost all the parents present criticized Lucille and attacked her together. 

Turning away so that nobody could see her face, Zoey’s lips curled into a smug smile. 

That was the result she wanted. 

Even if Lucille refused to let them go, Zoey would still gain the reputation of being kind and gracious. 

As for Lucille… she would become the target of everyone.
