ine’s appearance caused a flicker of panic to pass through Clifford’s eyes. Immediately, he
cleared his throat. “It’s nothing. We were just talking.”
Clifford was naturally feeling guilty. He dared not let ine discover the matter he spoke with
Zendaya.
“Zendaya. I need a clear answer from you,” Clifford hinted vaguely.
After all, the people around them had no clue about what his conversation with Zendaya was about.
The others were still clueless as to what Clifford meant.
Clifford naturally assumed that Zendaya would not speak of what had just happened. After all, it
wasn’t something worth showing off. Zendaya will keep this to herself and then leave to mull over
my proposal. She might be heartbroken initially, but as long as she’s smart, she’ll understand I’m
offering her love, a worry–free future. children, and a home. The only thing she won’t have is a
proper title and my open acknowledgment of our rtionship. This is the best option I can think of
and the best oue for her.
Clifford was brimming with confidence, feeling as if he had solved a significant problem and that he
didn’t need to use Zendaya to provoke ine anymore.
All he needed to focus on was reconciling with ine.
As his train of thought ended, Clifford turned to look at ine, lowering his guard, ready to speak.
However, ine didn’t even spare him a nce. Instead, she furrowed her brows and looked
toward Zendaya, questioning, “What’s going on? What is he talking about?”
The crowd was still wondering if ine suspected Zendaya of trying to snatch Clifford away.
Only Isabe and Alexander knew that ine had already received the DNA test results, confirming
that Zendaya was her half–sister from the same mother..
Wow, such a protective stance. So, ine isn’t actually angry at Zendaya, but rather, she’s excited
because she found her sister. As expected of ine. I’m impressed. Isabe smiled.
Alexander also grinned. Indeed, her magnanimity is impressive.
Zendaya, on the other hand, didn’t notice anything off about ine’s tone. She was still so upset
that she felt a tightness in her chest.
It wasn’t just that Clifford’s ideas were repulsive. She didn’t expect he would scheme against a good
woman. like ine and n to keep her as a mistress behind ine’s back, and that truly
disgusted her. She was ufortable being made a substitute in the past, but she thought perhaps
Clifford was so deeply in love with ine that he was acting abnormally.
Yet, that wasn’tpletely true, and Zendaya was sickened by his actions. The gratitude she once
felt toward him for employing her at a high price hadpletely faded away.
Zendaya didn’t respond to ine’s question. Instead, she stared at Clifford sharply. “Listen
carefully. I don’t need to think about it. I refuse.
For a moment, Clifford didn’t react in time. “What?”

Just as Clifford was about to show impatience, he saw Zendaya turn around and pull ine aside.
“He ims he wants to reconcile with you, marry you in the future, and then expects me to be his
mistress. He wants to have the best of both worlds.”
Her loudint immediately made the entire venue fall silent.
Everyone was stunned. They couldn’t believe Clifford was saying stuff like that to Zendaya and that
she brought it up in front of everyone.
They didn’t think Zendaya should say such a thing out loud, but the fact she was willing to do so
proved, she was absolutely unwilling to ept that proposal.
Before, everyone assumed Zendaya was hopelessly in love with Clifford, so they thought Zendaya’s
tantrum with Clifford at that moment was fake.
Due to the atmosphere frequently created by Clifford, everyone had been subtly brainwashed by
him. When they were suddenly hit with that shocking twist, they were dumbstruck. At the same time,
due to the turn of events, everyone was so embarrassed that they wished they could dig a hole in
the ground with
their toes.
They weren’t sure if they should listen to that and thought they should leave.”
However, they couldn’t resist the gossip.
Everyone was waiting with bated breath for things to unfold.
Isabe hugged Alexander in response to witnessing Zendaya’s outburst.
Yet, she feigned surprise, eximing. “What? Why would Clifford do such a thing?”
While Alexander allowed Isabe to hold him, he simultaneously raised his hand to steady her,
ensuring her excitement didn’t lead to her falling off the chair.
The expressions on the faces of Clifford’s friends varied greatly. Even though they knew Clifford
was a bit of a wildcard, they had never expected him to make such a decision.
After all, ine was their friend, too. If Clifford truly fell for Zendaya, they wouldn’t have minded.
However, it was uneptable for Clifford to pursue Zendaya while simultaneously humiliating
ine.
After hearing that, ine was stunned for a full thirty seconds.
She then mechanically turned to look at Clifford, who stood there as if petrified. How dare this
dumb“ss want to im both of us! Just how bold had he be? I must’ve been stupid to have
fallen for him in the past. Not only did I tarnish my reputation, but I also brought trouble to my
younger sister.
Originally, ine had mixed feelings toward Zendaya, She was thrilled to,discover they were
rted by blood, but it was undeniable that Zendaya was born out of her mother’s affair. It was
impossible for ine not to feel upset about it somewhat. That said, it couldn’t suppress her
excitement at finding a sister.
Her guilt for causing her sister such trouble by once falling in love with Clifford overpowered any
disgust she experienced.
How dare this shameless “sshole scheme against us and piss off my little sister! He’s courting
death! ine red furiously at Clifford. Not giving him a chance to react, she rushed forward,
raising her arm.

Clifford pressed his hand on his check,pletely dumbfounded and unable toprehend why
things.
you out of your mind? Who asked had taken such a turn. Almost reflexively, she turned to Zendaya.
“Are you to spill the beans? Do you even want to be with me anymore?”

My goodness! It seems those ps weren’t enough to make him are. Isabe shook her head.
“What’s the matter? Do you not have the guts to take responsibility for what you did?” Zendaya’s
anger red up even more upon hearing that. “Be with you? Can you drain all the sh*t in your brain
and take a good look at yourself? What makes you think I would ever be interested in a dumb
“sshole like you? Please, stop fantasizing and stop being so narcissistic. I’ve never liked you. How
many times do I have to say it? Are you just not getting it, or are you choosing not to understand? If
you keep harassing me like this, I’m going to call the police!”
Everyone was shaken once more after listening to that,
In the past, no matter what Zendaya said, Clifford always thought she was being sarcastic or
speaking out of anger. When others asked about it, he would always adopt a superior demeanor,
iming that Zendaya was throwing a tantrum at him.
At that moment, Zendaya had practically stripped him of all his dignity and ego.
“How dare you… You better not regret saying all that!” Clifford said, clearly upset.
“Zeya couldn’t have made it any clearer, yet you still think she’s throwing a tantrum with you? I
never realized you were so deranged before. Tell me, what does Zeya have to do to prove to you
that she’s not into you? Or are you so narcissistic that no matter what she does, you’ll believe she
still likes you? Please, get some help. You’re probably suffering from love delusions!” ine showed
no mercy toward Clifford.
