Chapter 121Are you willing to tell the truth?
After making the appointment with the Giordano family group, Serena freshened up.
She had said earlier that she would invite Matteo to dinner, but never got the chance. Alice said her older brother was very busy, so he seemed really busy. With only half an hour, then it was also a lunchtime.
Serena used the time to check Matthew’s eating habits, and then she ordered a restaurant.
When he confirmed the reservation, she was worried again. She didn’t have enough money….
It was obvious. Since it was for work, it should be reimbursed by the company. But she still cared a little about her previous business with the Romano family group, so she didn’t dare to ask the company for reimbursement at all. She thought she would pay from her own pocket.
There was no money now, so how could she invite Matteo to lunch?
After thinking for a long time, Serena called her sister Aurora.
Since the last time she left the Gallo family home, she had not contacted her family, and her family had never contacted her as if she had disappeared, nor had she ever asked her if she was okay with the Ferrari family.
Therefore, when Aurora received Serena’s call, she hung up without hesitation.
Because of her conscience, she was afraid that Serena would ask her to get her money back from last time.
A sneer appeared on Serena’s lips when she saw that her sister hung up the phone.
Did she think she couldn’t do anything if she hung up on her on the phone? Serena went directly to the school gate to find her.
At this time, there should be no one in the school. But Aurora was different from the other girls. She finished classes and still had to go to dancing rehearsal, so she only came out when she finished the rehearsal.
Serena saw her sister from a distance; she was hanging out with some of her fellow students who were dancing with her.
“Aurora!” Serena called her name.
Aurora froze for a moment and looked at her, and her face changed slightly after seeing her.
“Aurora, isn’t that your sister?”
“Your sister came to visit you. Are you still coming to have dinner with us today?”
Serena calmly stepped aside and waited. Aurora was a little impatient, “Go to the nearby bubble tea shop to wait for me. I will come over after I talk to my sister.”
“Okay.”
After her dance partners left, Aurora looked at her dissatisfiedly and said, “Big sister, when you come to see me, can you let me know first? You suddenly appeared in front of my school, so you make it difficult for me, okay? My friends are waiting for me. ”
Serena’s face was nexpressive, and she looked at her coldly, “I want to tell you in advance, but will you answer the phone?”
As she spoke, Serena pulled out her phone and raised her voice, “I called you for several times. Did you answer it?”
Hearing this, Aurora’s eyes tried to escape her gaze, “Because I was practicing for the dance lessons. I muted the phone, so I didn’t hear it. Serena, didn’t you always know I was going to practice? And you still call me!”
“Muted you phone… Don’t you look at your phone after you finish class?” Serena’s face became even colder, and her tone was low, “Last time you took my savings book I don’t want to scold you for this anymore, but I have a few hundreds euros in it, now I just ask you to give me back a hundre euros.”
Aurora could not help but go wide-eyed, “Give you back a thousand euros? Serena, have you lost your memory? Didn’t mom tell you that she took that money? Should you go to her if you want that money back? Why come after me?”
Serena sneered, “You know perfectly well who took that money.”
“Anyway, I didn’t take it, and I’m not going to give you the 100 euros you’re asking for.”
“Are you sure?” Serena lifted her lips, “Actually, Aurora, I don’t want things between us to become too terrible. Ever since I was a child, whenever you wanted something I always gave it to you. But this time, look at you. You are stealing, as your sister, I have an obligation to educate you.”
When she finished speaking, Serena grabbed Aurora’s sleeve directly, “I’ll take you to the police station, or, let’s go in front of your teachers and show them what you learned during your school time.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
She did not have much strength, but she was on par with Aurora, who had a guilty conscience. When she realized she was going to take her to the police station or in front of her teachers, her beautiful face turned pale with panic.
“Serena, don’t do this, Serena. I didn’t take your money. I really didn’t spend your money.”
“Never mind, we will talk to teachers or the police.” Said Serena coldly.
Aurora: “Serena, you have loved me since I was a child. You have always given me the best of everything. Forgive me. If you take me to the teacher, I won’t have the face to be with my boyfriend anymore. My boyfriend, if he knows, he will leave me. Serena… you are the best, forgive me this time.”
“Finally, are you willing to tell the truth?” Serena paused, “Where did the money go?”
“Last time, to celebrate my birthday, I said I would invite everyone to a party. As a result, everyone came. I wanted to save face, so I took your money and spent it. You know, if I ask parents about so much money they surely won’t give it to me. And if mother knew that I spent so much money on the party, I would definitely be killed by her. But my sister, I didn’t did it on purpose. I didn’t expect so many people to come. And I also invited so many friends. I had no choice. Please forgive me Serena! We are sisters, this time — I didn’t mean it, otherwise how could I take your hard-earned money! ”
Aurora burst into tears and cried in pain as she hugged Serena’s arm.
Serena: “…”
She seemed to be softhearted again.
However, she was her sister. She only came here for an attitude, and now Aurora bowed her head to admit her mistake. And after telling her the story, Serena realized that she really couldn’t be angry anymore.
“Serena, aren’t you angry with me anymore? Sorry, I really didn’t mean to.”
“Even if I were angry? Is it possible for me to kill you? ” Serena was really angry. She had been saving money for a long, long time, but it was spent by her in an instant. Now even though she was in urgent need, there was no money left.
“I’m really sorry, Serena. I still have two 200 euros. I’ll give it to you now.” After that, Aurora quickly took out her wallet and gave it to Serena, “This is the remaining money. I wanted to give it back to you, but when you asked me last time, I was a little scared and didn’t dare to admit it.”
Looking at the 200 euros, Serena felt a little uncomfortable again, “You gave me all the money, so how about you?”
Aurora wiped her tears and smiled, “It’s okay, Serena. My classmates have meal vouchers. I can eat together with them. If not, leave me 10 euro to buy bread to eat. This matter is my fault, and I should be punished.”
In the end, they were sisters. They had a good relationship when they were children, until now for so many years…. Serena did not feel willing to let her suffer. She gave up.
“Forget it, half per person. Take the 100 euros to buy food. I really have no choice. I urgently need the money. After I take my salary, I will give you some more.”
Hearing all this, Aurora’s smile was a little more condensed: “Serena, after you got married and went to live in the Ferrari family home… are you living badly?”
