With that in mind, Xavia remained calm as she retorted, “…Had you not forced me to give birth to that child back then, there wouldn’t have been any chance of me replacing you. Had you not f*cked Keith and gotten your video leaked out, I wouldn’t have had to appear before the Burtons. And lastly, had you not stolen my design before this, I wouldn’t have designed such a masterpiece that would end up aweing everyone…”
“Come to think of it, I guess I should be the one thanking you instead, sister,” concluded Xavia.
“You…!” roared Jenna as she lifted her hand to slap her!
However, Xavia caught Jenna by the wrist before saying, “As I said before, never hit me again. That aside, if you truly want things to remain peaceful for you, then stop while you can. Just because I’m not pursuing your theft now, doesn’t mean that I won’t do it later. Now, if you’ll excuse me… Actually, there’s one last thing… You look hideous when you’re angry.”
After saying all that, Xavia then smiled before calmly walking off, knowing that she had been completely victorious over that savage of a woman this time…
Once Xavia was gone, the fuming Jenna couldn’t help but stomp her foot on the ground! That f*cking b*tch…!
It took a while, but after sorting her emotions out, Jenna finally walked out again… It didn’t take long before she just so happened to run into Ava who was being wheelchaired by Louisa.
Quickly putting on her gentle façade, Jenna then ran over to the old woman before saying with a smile, “Where are you off to, Grandma…? Allow me to wheel you…”
“There’s no need for that. Speaking of which, learn more from your sister when you have the time. She, for one, had natural talent, and you can’t compare to her when it comes to ambition and aspirations… Now then… Louisa, bring me to my room,” replied Ava in an icy tone…
Even after Ava had left, Jenna remained petrified on the spot. It felt like someone had just poured a basin of icy water over her on a winter night…! To think that Ava—who used to hate Xavia the most—now thought that that woman was good…!
This was bad. She had to suppress Xavia’s momentum, one way or another…!
Moving back to Xavia, after leaving the storage room, Xavia had made her way back to the North Court, clearly in a good mood. After all, now that she had secured the green space project, all that was left for her to do was continue accompanying Keith to cure his illness. Following that, victory was hers…!
Her train of thought was cut short when she heard Keith’s voice call out, “Xavia.”
Turning around, she saw the svelte man walking up to her. It almost made her feel as though what had happened that night was all just a bad dream… Unfortunately, the scars and bruises that still remained made it evident that this was the harsh reality of it.
