Elisa anticipated the reaction and looked indifferently at her.
Elisa mocked, “I’ll be pleased to assist you if my cousin wants to be that self-deprecating.”
There was a tinge of disappointment in Elisa’s tone. The remark did not play well with the Benett’s.
So, this is what she perceives!
Elisa made it her mission to have Linda spend the rest of her life in this mental institute.
Rose made a bitter expression. She breathed, “Elisa Benett, how could you utter such a thing? She is your sister!”
“Strong prey on the weak because that is how the world is. You will be discarded if you lack any abilities. Why is my cousin unhappy if she is exemplary? Why not exemplify her? Sad and depressed.” She smiled sickly to her aunt, “Being disillusioned to conserve what little happiness she pretends to have.”
She turned to her cousin, “So, dearest cousin, don’t let me down.” Elisa whispered, “Otherwise, one day, when you slip up, everyone will see right through your cracks…”
Linda had her hands clenched under the quilts.
I’m going to kill this b*tch.
To not expose her anger, she lowered her gaze.
“Do I detect some anger?” Rachel’s eyes flickered with excitement.
Elisa smiled, “That seemed to rile you up. You’re so pathetic.”
Linda: !!!
