Chapter 156


    “Oops! I didn’t think of that.” Yvette covered her mouth with her hands as if she were aware of her


    mistake. Then she pleaded pitifully, “I’m sorry, Yvonne. I didn’t mean to offend you with the truth. I


    mean, everyone knows Lyle loves Crystal. I didn’t expect you to be so slow-witted. Sorry.”


    “Are you done talking? Should I treat you to some coffee to take a break for a moment? I feel bad to


    put you on a drama like this, you know.” I refused to let them bully me anymore. I asked the shop


    attendant for my shopping bag and turned to leave.


    As expected, Yvette dashed forward and blocked my way with her hand on my shoulder. “Yvonne, I’m


    not done yet. We’re sisters. How could you just leave when I’m trying to be nice to you?” she fumed.


    She was inches from my face, so I pushed her away. She lost her bnce and fell.


    “You brat! How dare you push my daughter! I’ll teach you a lesson!” Scarlett immediately raised her


    hand to p me.


    Expecting her reaction, I grabbed her wrist. “Don’t go overboard. Remember, karma exists.”


    Scarlet pulled her hand back. Perhaps my stern re intimated her. She helped her daughter up while


    she swore at me. “Yvette, are you okay? Gosh, that witch just pushed you slightly. How could you fall


    so easily?”


    Yvette stood up and massaged her knee. “Yvonne, stop being so stubborn. You’ll need our help


    someday. When that dayes, I might not agree to help you even if you beg on your knees,” she


    chided.


    She reminded me of Crystal. However, I was no longer afraid of both of them.


    “Don’t worry. I won’t. So please, never show up in front of me again. I’m so sick at the sight of you.” At


    that, I walked past them and left.


    I was hesitant to return inside to buy Christopher’s shirt and tie because I didn’t want to bump into the


    wicked mother-daughter duo again. However, I just couldn’t go home without it, so I went back in and


    headed to the third floor.


    I chose a silver tie that I thought would highlight his deep and crescent-shaped eyes. It was expensive,


    but perfect for him.


    I used my savings with no hesitation. I have a job anyway, I can still save again. This is nothing.


    I entered an elevator and stood silently as the door closed. Suddenly, I regretted my purchase. It’s


    really expensive! I spent my youth saving up all this money. Most of my outfits are hand-me-downs.


    At that moment, I realized I had fallen so deep in love. I decided to spend the rest of my life with him


    and he would be my major support.


    A shop attendant squeezed herself between the closing doors and hit me by ident. She immediately


    apologized profusely at my frown. “It’s okay.” I waved at her, and we rode in silence.


    With the tie in my hand, I walked to the cashier counter to settle the bill. Suddenly, two police officers


    stopped me.C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.
