Chapter 357


    I turned and red daggers at her. “Crystal! Does your shamelessness know no bounds?”


    “The show is about to start, Yvonne!” Crystal said while giving me a friendly pat on the shoulder. I saw


    the bodyguard next to Benjamin whisper something into the woman’s ear, and she began making her


    way toward the stage. Her tummy seemed really huge and looked like she was in her third trimester.


    With no other option left, I was about to shout out loud and get everyone’s attention on me when I saw


    Christopher running into the hall. He seemed to be in a hurry with sweat all over his forehead, and I


    also saw Monica following behind him.


    For some reason, seeing Monica here gave me the feeling that she had something to do with this


    incident.


    I then turned toward Crystal and shed her a faint smile. “You know what, Crystal? I just remembered


    something! It’s like you said, I’m Christopher’s woman. Do you really think you can just walk away after


    stabbing me in public? If I die, you’re joining me in death!”


    “Don’t threaten me! You think I won’t do it? Try me, b*tch!” Crystal shouted coldly.


    I calmed down a little when I saw her panicked response which confirmed my theory. “This isn’t like you


    at all, Crystal. You’re so desperate that you can’t even think straight. You should’ve had someone else


    stab me, and I’m sure those from the Miller family would be more than happy to do it for you. I’m pretty


    sure you don’t have the guts to stab me, so this is checkmate for you!”


    I then grabbed her hand holding the knife and headbutted her in the nose. Crystal reeled from the pain


    but managed to stop herself from crying out. Seeing as people have noticed ourmotion, I raised


    my hand and pped her hard across the face.


    “Ah! You b*tch! How dare you hit me?” Crystal shrieked.


    “That’s not all I’m going to do!” I seized the opportunity to break free of her grip before grabbing a ss


    of red wine and sshing it all over her face. “You should’ve prepared yourself for the consequences


    when you decided to seduce a married man! Being Lyle’s first love doesn’t give you the right to just


    label me as a homewrecker, you know? What do you take us for? Complete id*ots or something?”


    “No, that’s not true! I swear!” Crystal was quick to catch on and covered her face while looking at me


    helplessly. She even tossed the knife onto the table behind her without anyone noticing.


    I mmed my fist hard on the table and shouted, “You know what you did, Crystal! And I haven’t


    forgotten how you stole Autumnal Panorama and imed it to be your own work! Recing my name


    on it with yours doesn’t automatically make it yours! I painted the Autumnal Panorama, and I was


    supposed to be the one attending the Eastsummer art exhibition! You’re a fake, and you’ll always be


    nothing but a fake!”


    People began gathering around us when they heard themotion, and I saw the pregnant woman


    making her way onto the stage. However, nobody noticed what she was doing as everyone had their


    eyes fixated on my confrontation with Crystal, much to my relief.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    “Shut up, Yvonne! I’m your cousin, for goodness’ sake! I know you really love art and all, but that


    doesn’t mean you can just nder me like this! I’m an acknowledged apprentice of the great Mr.


    Sawyer! I can’t believe you’d use me of such horrible things, all for the sake of fame and fortune! Do


    you even have any passion for art? Or do you just see it as a mere tool for you to get rich and popr?


    It’s my dream to be an artist, and I will not allow you to insult it like this!” Crystal sobbed as tears


    began rolling down her cheeks.
