Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Get Started

Aylin and Robert exchanged glances, both well aware of who “those people” referred to.

Aylin lifted her chin, “Bring them in.”

The servants promptly opened the door, and Sariah walked in with a mournful expression on her face.

She had clearly freshened up a bit before coming, but it couldn’t hide the traces of her long and tiring journey. Her dark circles were so prominent that they almost reached her cheekbones, showing her extreme exhaustion.

It seems like they’ve been through quite a bit of hardship in the countryside.

Sariah was led in by the housekeeper and politely greeted Aylin, “Good evening, Aylin.”

Aylin’s expression was cold and indifferent. She didn’t even invite Sariah to sit down, nor did she glance at her. She just nonchalantly responded with a curt reply.

Only silence is the greatest contempt, and this behavior undoubtedly deeply hurt Sariah’s self-esteem.

Aylin, dressed in her dazzling and splendid attire, stood in front of her, making Sariah feel like a dull, grey potato in comparison. The huge contrast clenched Sariah’s fists in frustration.

Aylin ignored her and shifted her focus back to Robert.

Sariah’s eyes glistened as she squeezed out two teardrops, trying to get closer to Robert. “Ro, what are you looking at?”

Robert suddenly stood up, as if repelled by something filthy, and distanced himself. “Who do you think you are, Ro? You must be dreaming! Stay away from me!”

These words were spoken without any reservation, almost like a reprimand.

Sariah’s face flushed red and then turned pale, feeling extremely embarrassed.

She forced a smile and said, “Why doesn’t it count as Ro? Don’t we have some blood relation too? Why are you so heartless towards me…”

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her face, filled with sorrow. “You have no idea what my life has been like in the countryside. Aylin forces me to do chores, like cutting ragweed and chopping firewood, and I can’t even get enough to eat for three meals a day. I’m like your sister too, but I’ve never felt your concern for me.”

After she finished speaking, she looked at the man with a pitiful expression.

She considered herself not too shabby either. When she cried, her tears fell like raindrops on pear blossoms, making her the type of woman who could easily tug at a man’s heartstrings.

But no one knew.

“I know, you deserved it!”

Robert glanced at her coldly with his arms crossed, his mockery showing no courtesy, “Who told you to overestimate yourself and try to frame Aylin, coveting things that don’t belong to you?

I’m telling you, this is considered mild.

If it were up to me, I guarantee you’d never be able to return to New York in this lifetime!”

She was dumbfounded.

Sariah looked at Robert in disbelief. She thought that by crying, she could gain some sympathy from him. She had used this tactic on many men before, and it had always worked.

Ironically, Robert took a big tumble here!

Robert’s eyes were filled with disdain and contempt, “And, I only have one sister, Aylin. Don’t try to claim any sort of relationship with everything!”

After saying that, he worried that Aylin might be angry, so he gently coaxed her, “Aylin, in my heart, you are the only sister.”

That tender affection and gentle words were just like pampering the most beloved princess.
