A Rose 204


    Hearing the Murphys‘ offer to her, Yvette quirked a sarcastic smile. “50,000 dors? How generous


    of you.”


    Recognizing the sarcasm in Yvette’s tone, Lynda felt like Yvette was looking down on them.


    She retaliated, “Who are you to criticize us, Yvette? Look at your pathetic outfit. How dare you


    comin that 50,000 dors is too little? You know what, you won’t even get this 50,000 dors!”


    “Why get angry with her, Lynda? We’re rich now. If we argue with a poor girl like her, it’ll make us


    look bad,” Tyler said arrogantly.


    “Since it’s too little for you, I can give you more, but only if you promise to note to us anymore!


    Remember, Yvette. We’re not rted anymore. You’ve been kicked out of the family, so stop


    bothering us! Take the money and leave!”


    Yvette’s gaze turned even colder. She challenged, “You know we’re unrted, so who gave you the


    permission to use my design?”


    Yvette had found out, after all! Tyler felt guilty, but Amy spoke boldly as if Yvetter wasn’t even there,


    “So what if we used her design? If it weren’t for us, she would’ve died multiple times. She can repay


    us for raising her with her crappy design!”


    “Mom’s right!” Lynda agreed immediately. “Dad, you have no idea. Yvette, that bitch, did so many


    shameless things for money. She sacrificed her body for money, sleeping with many men! Also, she


    was the one who beat Mom and Lucas. You mustn’t give her any money!”


    Hearing that Yvette was the one who hurt Lucas, Tyler’s expression darkened. Tyler only had one


    son, but Yvette had ruined Lucas. He couldn’t help but hate Yvette for what she’d done.


    Noticing Tyler’s expression, Lynda continued, “Dad, she’s a bitch. You mustn’t give her a single


    cent–Hey!” Before Lynda could finish her usations, a dagger flew past her eyes and sunk into


    the wall behind her. It was very close to stabbing her in the eye.


    In shock, Lynda almost fell to the ground. She released a shrill scream.


    “What’s going on?”

    Themotion attracted the interest of the people in the hall. People walked outside and began


    murmuring at the scene.


    “I think they’re fighting over the design!”


    “The design? Why would they fight over that…”


    Hearing their discussions, Lynda panicked. She refused to let them know that Yvette had been the


    true owner of that design.


    Lynda needed the design to gain Nancy’s favor, and for Nancy to introduce her to Yves. Lynda


    absolutely refused to let Yvette ruin her future!


    Lynda immediately said, “I’m so sorry, everyone. She used to be an adopted child of our family, but


    we’ve disowned her. She’s not rted to us anymore!


    “She must be thinking ofing back to us after seeing how we became rich. We’ll take care of this


    matter, so please head inside!”

    “Don’t believe what she says, everyone. Her biological family is extremely poor. Now that we’re rich,


    she’s here to deliberately defame us.”
