The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill novel Chapter 12

Scarlett held a fork in one hand while her other hand, still poised as if holding a bowl, hovered in mid-air.

Looking surprised, she said, "Nadia, if you dislike Lily, just say so directly. There's no need for such extreme revenge, is there? Plus, you wasted nearly all my instant noodles."

Nadia's expression was filled with panic and stress. "What nonsense are you spouting? Scarlett, you did this on purpose!"

Her family's business was completely reliant on the Quinn family, and she couldn't risk upsetting Lily. She hurried to help Lily remove the instant noodle container. Seeing the mess all over Lily and her clothes, Nadia was so worried that she felt helpless.

"Lily, let me take you to the bathroom to get cleaned up first."

Lily's hand by her side tensed into a trembling fist. With clenched teeth, she shouted, "Nadia Hayman!"

Nadia's face turned ashen with fear. "It wasn't intentional. Scarlett was the one who put the instant noodles in front of me. I swear I didn't mean to..."

"So, if it wasn't accidental, you did it on purpose, didn't you?" Scarlett intentionally exacerbated the situation, eager to watch them clash.

After all, one of them was openly causing trouble for her, while the other did it behind her back. In her past life, she hadn't been able to stand up for herself, but that didn't mean she'd let them push her around this time.

She said, "It'll probably take a lot of body wash to clean up this mess. Isn't it curious how Nadia just happened to spill all the body wash on the bed?"

Lily shot Nadia a menacing glare, making Nadia even more nervous.

"It was purely accidental," she stammered. "When body wash combines with milk tea, beef jerky, and oil, it solidifies and becomes impossible to clean. I only intended to mess up Scarlett's bed linens and quilt."

"Oh, is that so? Well, that's quite a coincidence. Shampoo can definitely work as a body wash substitute."

"Just stop!" Nadia tried to explain again, "We use a lot of shampoo, so that's why I ended up using the body wash..."

In other words, with Scarlett's intentional steering. The more Nadia attempted to clarify, the more tangled her explanations became. She reached out to grab Lily, but Lily shook her off. This caused the noodle soup that had dripped onto her sleeve to splash onto Nadia's face.

Feeling disgusted, Nadia instinctively wiped her face with her hand. This action only fueled Lily's anger further. She stormed toward the bathroom.
