Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1018

When Kira heard that voice, an immense fear crept up on her face and she stopped crying at once.

“Sha… Shae?”

“Shae? You don’t have the right to call me that!”

Kira screamed in pain as the woman tugged on her hair again. Just then, a very attractive woman stepped in front of her.

The woman, who was adding fuel to fire, making the situation worse for Kira, was Shanae. Kira had previously told Devin and the others that Shanae had held her hostage and handed her over to the smugglers.

However, currently, Shanae looked completely different from how she looked when she was in Jadeborough.

The woman was wearing an extremely revealing tight-fitting slip dress and had also gotten a perm, the large curls in her hair flowing in the wind.

She looked hideous with her heavily made-up face. It seemed like a distant past that Shanae was still that pure and innocent daughter from a scholarly family. In fact, the woman looked no different from those girls working at nightclubs.

“I have never imagined that you would turn out to be the most vicious and scheming person in the Woods family. It must be hard on you to pretend to be harmless and innocent over the years, huh?”

Shanae pulled Kira’s hair forcefully once again, picking her up from the ground.

Kira let out a piercing scream in agony at once, feeling as if her scalp was being detached from her head.

The woman was terrified and started pleading, “You’re mistaken! It’s not what you think. Shanae, I can explain! I wasn’t the one who did that.”

“Who was it if not you?”

“It’s… It’s Sabrina who incited me to do that!” Kira exclaimed. It had suddenly occurred to her that she could make Sabrina the scapegoat.

However, right after she finished speaking, Shanae slapped her face hard.

“Do you think I’ll believe that? You persuaded me to drug Devin in Coldbridge, saying that it’s for my own good. It’s actually for yourself! I was at risk of being exposed after the plan failed, but in order to protect yourself, you sent me to Drakon instead. You wanted to spoil my reputation and push all the blame to me, didn’t you?” Shanae bellowed at Kira hysterically at the entrance of the hospital, wishing that she could rip the woman into pieces right then.

She would give anything to return to that day before what happened in Coldbridge.

That night, Shanae had not originally planned to drug Devin. It was Kira who had approached her, telling her that Sabrina had been harassing Devin and suggested that she should take advantage of his emotional state and sleep with him, sealing the deal since his parents had passed away.

That way, Shanae would be able to become the lady of the Red Pavilion, which was what Shanae desired.
