Chapter 67
Both of them fell silent after speaking, then urgently blurted out in unison. “Who believes your c*p?” “*You’re really good at painting a rosy picture!”
Shakira looked at them and found it quite ironic. In a past life, even not long ago, one of them had been hysterical towards her, while the other treated her like dirt. Yet at this very moment, one was offering to accompany her, and the other wanted to collaborate with her. Wasn’t that ironic?
The mockery was plain on Shakira’s face, without any attempt to hide it.
Similarly, upon hearing each other’s words, they both showed an shock and contempt face. Each snorted and glared at Shakira.
Compared to their tense rivalry, Shakira was quite at ease. Suddenly, an idea came to her, and a subtle smile appeared on her beautiful face.
“Mitchell, did you pass on what I told you that night to Finn?” Mitchell came to his senses, “I haven’t had the chance to tell Finn yet.”
Shakira nodded understandingly, then said, “Of course, it’s normal for you not to trust me.”
Mitchell explained, “I do trust you, it’s just that something happened when I went back last night.” His voice gradually lowered.
After going back last night, Yvette had cried in his room and pleaded with him for so long that he indeed delayed this
matter.
Now facing Shakira’s open and honest attitude, Mitchell couldn’t help but feel guilty.
He thought, ‘After all, I was tender-hearted towards Yvette last night and promised to keep her secret.
Both of them were my sisters, and I didn’t want Yvette to be heartbroken. And likewise, I also felt remorse towards Shakira
I admitted that I had been too impulsive before, misunderstanding Shakira and saying many mean words, but now that I knew I was wrong. It would be fine if I make it up to her properly.
As for those past matters of the Smith family, they had nothing to do with my family. If it escalated now, it would only make Yvette more awkward.’
Seeing Mitchell with his head down, not saying anything and seemingly lost in thought, Shakira tapped the table. “Since you say you trust me, shouldn’t you back it up with action?”
Mitchell raised his head up. His eyes sparkled as if he suddenly understood Shakira’s intention.
“Of course, I trust you. You mean, if I go and tell Finn about this, you’ll let bygones be bygones with me?” said Mitchell.
Shakira’s tapping on the table paused, but her smile was even brighter. “It’s your business, it has nothing to do with me.”
But Mitchell took this as an admission. He was filled with energy and stood

abruptly.
Xanthe, sitting next to him, almost got knocked over by his sudden movement.
“I’m going to the company to find Finn now!” said Mitchell.
Shakira reminded him kindly. “Don’t forget your tray.”

things and hurriedly left.
Xanthe was stunned, taking a while before she looked at Shakira in disbelief. “Are you that easy to appease?”
Thanks to Yvette, Xanthe and Berry had also heard quite a bit about Shakira’s affairs. Honestly, she now felt a bit of sympathy for Shakira.
What Yvette had done were so disgusting. For the injustice that left one speechless, Xanthe felt it was unbearable after just one experience, let alone Shakira, who had even been betrayed by her closest kin.
Just at Yvette’s birthday party, how rude Mitchell was when he scolded Shakira. It’s like that he didn’t treat her like a human being at all.
Could Shakira just let bygones be bygones with just this one request?
Shakira leaned back in her chair, looking chill and indifferent. “Did I say I’ OK with that?”
Xanthe realized her intention and gave Shakira a thumbs-up. “I knew it, if you said you forgave him just for this, I would really look down on you.”
Shakira replied, “When have you ever looked up to me?”
Xanthe was embarrassed.
After Mitchell, and now it’s Xanthe’s turn to be blushing and flustered.
Thinking about how she was used by Yvette as a pawn to do wrong things to Shakira like an idiot, she even want to bang her head against the wall. It’s utterly embarrassing!
At the same time, she felt even more angry. “Who knew that double-faced b***h was such a good actress, I was completely fooled by her!”
Shakira was also curious. “Aren’t you not afraid of her?”
Speaking about this, Xanthe got angry. “I don’t know what she and Berry are plotting, my parents actually told me not to cause trouble for Berry. Even if we can’t be friends, I shouldn’t offend her. It’s really p***g me off!”
Shakira frowned slightly. “For so many years, it seems like you’ve always gain the upper hand in this relationship, right?”
“Of course! Although Berry is one of the Whites, her family has no connection to the main White family at all. For so many years, they’ve barely managed with some resources from my parents. Now she’s h***k up with the main family. So she get bold now, and act evilly in collusion with Yvette!” said Xanthe.
The more she talked, the angrier Xanthe became, as if her eyes were about to blaze with fire. “After all these years, my family has given her so many benefits, and now that ungrateful b***h is conspiring with Yvette to frame me, she deserves no good end!”
Shakira was shocked slightly, and she
t expect there to be such things.
banquet for Kyle, but she didn’t pay much attention to her at the time.
She remembered that Berry was also at the
A foxy idea came up in Shakira’s mind as she looked at the indignant Xanthe. “You want to cooperate with me, but why should I trust you?”
“If you can trust Mitchell, why can’t
you trust
me? At least I really want to tear those two b***es apart now!” said Xanthe.
Shakira nodded and said, “What you say does seem to make sense. There’s something that
can you
do.”
“Hurry up, I know you’ve got a whole bunch of bad plans to get yvette, and I can’t wait any longer!” Seeing Xanthe’s

She thought, Xanthe’s always in such a hurry. She was hurry when she stood up for Yvette and trouble on her, and now she’s also hurry when she turns her back and seeks revenge.’
Shakira intrigued her deliberately. “I have my own plans, which are not the same as your desire to just seek revenge, and it’s difficult for you, do you really want to join in?”
Xanthe’s eyes widened, she clenched her fists and waved them in front of Shakira, “As long as it can bring them big trouble, I can even pick up dog poop for you!”
Shakira was a little bit speechless.
What a nonsense!
Sure enough, Mitchell and Xanthe are Yvette’s good helpers. Both of them are reckless.
Shakira rubbed her forehead and whispered to Xanthe. “You should persuade your dad to bid against the Smith family for the Southville Project.”
Xanthe opened her mouth, but Shakira didn’t give her a chance to speak. “Don’t ask the reason.”
Xanthe hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded firmly. “Alright!” Shakira smiled and said, “Then I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
