S3| 140. Same Party
“So Jeremy''s guess was correct? You were kidnapped? And you were free because you agreed something with Mrs. Moore?”
Ava''s voice turned hoarse.
“Yes! | have no other choice. | have to agree that now is the time for me to destroy you!”
“Eval”
Everyone turned towards the sound. Bryan turned out to be bringing Mrs. Connor towards them. The woman in the wheelchair
seemed to be having difficulty catching her breath.
“Tell me it''s not true. Tell me you''ve never had such evil thoughts!”
Eva gasped. Her mouth was agape, letting out a gasp of disbelief. Mom?”
A secondter, she nced at Ava with deeper hatred. “You brought Mom here on purpose?”
“Eval”
Eva looked back at Mrs. Connor. Her mother’s tears made her chest
tight. Her hands clenched tightly into fists.
“Please understand me, Mom. I''m doing all this for you. | don’t want to be separated from you.”
Mrs. Connor shook her head faintly. “I am really disappointed in you, Eva. All this time, | have put all my love on you. | hope that
you can grow up to be a loving person, without jealousy or revenge. But turns out, all that isn''t enough? You even intend to
destroy your own sister?”
“I haven''t done anything, Mom. See? Ava is still standing here. She''s

fine.”
“But you secretly have bad intentions towards her.”
Eva grimaced in pain. “Now you''re defending her too? You choose
Ava over me?”
“It''s not a matter of choosing, Eva. | love you as my own daughter. You even get more than Ava.”
“No! You''re wrong, Mom. Life is all about being chosen or thrown away. When | was kidnapped, | called Ava. Mrs. Moore asked
her to choose. Me or Jeremy. Apparently? She preferred Jeremy. She threw me away! Then what could | do?”
Eva spread her arms briefly. Her shoulders were shaking. Tears
flooded her cheeks.
“Only | can save myself. So, what''s wrong with me agreeing to Mrs. Moore''s conditions? | also want to survive. Why do you
me me? Why is everyone cornering me?”
Ava sighed tiredly. Her hand was raised to hold her head. “If you were kidnapped, you should be honest, Eva. We will definitely
help you.
Jeremy can offer you protection.”
“Protection for me?” Evaughed dryly. “He only cares about you. It''s impossible for him to protect me. Moreover, he hates me.”
“Okay. I''m sorry for dragging you into a difficult position. But please... you don''t have to face all this alone.”
Ava tried to touch Eva''s shoulder. However, her sister brushed her
hand off.
“You''ve thrown me away, Ava. You chose your lover. Remember? You were the one who left me alone. And now, don’t bother me
anymore. | won''t bother you either again. Be happy with Mom and your lover.”

“Then Patricia? How do you face her alone? She’s too dangerous.”
Eva pursed her mouth tightly. Her chin was slightly raised. “She and | have the same enemy. What do | have to fear? She''s on
my side.”
“Don''t be fooled by her sweet talk. That two-headed snake never considers anyone a friend.” Jeremy reminded.
“But siding with her is much more profitable for me. | get payment, guaranteed safety, and the chance to see my enemy fall.”
Eva nced at Ava with a different look. Ava had never gotten that impression before-cold and murderous. Realizing that,
Jeremy gritted his teeth.
“If you side with Patricia, you have to be ready to face me. | won''t y around when ites to protecting my family.”
“Go ahead. I''m not afraid,” Eva challenged with a terrible smile. When her gaze returned to Ava, her eyebrows rose. “This is what
you''ve been waiting for, right? Seeing everyone attack me. Even Mom doesn’t care about me anymore.”
“No, Darling-"
“Shhh!” Eva straightened her index finger and turned to face her mother. “Don’t bother persuading me. Just save your energy,
Mom. Aren''t you going to get the therapy soon?”
While everyone furrowed their brows, Eva casually wiped her face.” Okay. That''s enough for now. I''m leaving this pce and
probably won''te back. Where''s my phone?”
With a heavy heart, Jeremy returned her phone. “Remember my warning carefully. Patricia is not your friend.”
However, Eva didn’t pay attention. She left gracefully. She no longer cared about her dress. She just needed to change clothes

peaceful house. Without Ava. Without having to bother thinking about how to take him down. All she needed to do was wait to
contact Patricia and report the current conditions. That woman must have a million ways to make her wishe true-ruining
Ava’s happiness.
“Uncle, will Eva be okay?” Emily asked in a small voice. She wasn''t crying anymore, but she was still pouting.
Jeremy took a deep breath. “It''s hard to say. Let''s hope Patricia will let Eva go.”
“Is Patricia a dangerous person?” Mrs. Connor sighed with a face full of wrinkles. Seeing Jeremy nod slightly, she looked down
and clutched her own trousers. “Why is everything like this? Have | failed in raising that kid?”
Ava quickly approached. “Mom, don’t me yourself. It''s her mistake that her thoughts are always negative.”
“After all, she is also my daughter-your little sister. She is in danger

“You don''t need to worry, Mom. | will find a way to protect Eva.” As her hand rubbed her mother’s shoulder, Ava looked at
Jeremy. “Are you willing to help me again?”
“I will send a secret guard to follow her. Even though he can only watch her from a certain distance, | can guarantee that your
sister is safe.”
Mrs. Connor looked up at Jeremy. Her eyes filled with tears. “Thank you.”
Jeremy jerked an eyebrow. ‘I jus

her what she had just experienced.
Eva thought she would get support. But apparently, the woman was
furious!
“What did you say? You were kicked out of the house?”
“Yes, Madam. They identally found the rope marks on my wrist. They knew that we were in cahoots.”
“Fool! I told you not to do anything before | gave you order. You should y it safe and not appear before them too often!”.
With pursed lips, Eva looked at the wound. “I''ve covered it with foundation, Madam. They had looked at my wrist previously.
They believed there was nothing. Everything became a mess when those brats came. If only they hadn''t provoked my anger, |
wouldn''t have been hit by the water. My secret is safe.”
“Then what can you do now, hmm? You''re not in their house anymore.
How can you attack?”
Eva gasped. She just realized that Patricia was really angry and t she had made a big mistake.
“You can still use me to attack them, Madam. Even though I''m not i that house, | can still meet them. They won''t dare to hurt me.
That
weak woman won''t have the heart. And neither will Mom. She will definitely urge them to protect me.” Eva swallowed bitterly.
Patriciaughed disdainfully. “I shouldn''t rely on you. You are indeed
brainless.”
Eva''s eyes widened. Her mouth trembled. “What do you mean,
Madam? We''re on the same side, right? | can still be your weapon.”
“Not anymore! | already gave you a chance. Since you fail to carry out the mission, you have to ept the consequences.”

Eva exhaled quickly. Her head shook spontaneously. “No, Ma''am. This is not our agreement.”
However, the phone had been turned off. Eva could only tremble at the thought of what woulde to her.
