A Rose 363
Tyler and Amy trembled in fear at Yvette’s icy tone, stammering in response.
“It was her! It was Serena who ordered us to do this! Yvette, if you had to blame someone, blame her!”
“Exactly, exactly! It was all her idea; you should blame that woman! This has nothing to do with us!”
They immediately shifted all the blame onto Serena, trying to absolve themselves completely.
Upon seeing their faces, Yvette’s striking eyes glinted with a deeper chill, her slender fingers clenching tightly.
She wondered how these people were the son and daughter–in–law of her Movely grandmother. If it weren’t for Kayla’s kindness, they would have long
since lost their lives!
Noticing that Yvette was silent, Tyler and Amy grew bolder.
“Since when did we spread rumors?” Amy glared at Yvette fiercely. “You’re the one who abandoned us after you found your wealthy biological parents! That’s the truth; we didn’t say anything wrong.”
“Exactly! If you hadn’t left us with nothing and turned us into beggars living in misery, how could we have agreed to do this for Serena? Ultimately, it’s still your fault!” Tyler agreed with his wife.
Listening to their shameless words, Yvette felt a mix of anger and amusement. Her fingers tightened into fists.
Seeing her expression, Jacob’s eyes filled with concern. He looked at Tyler and Amy with a chilling glare. “Yvie, don’t get upset. I’ll handle these shameless idiots,” he bellowed.
“Please, no…” the couple cried.
Tyler and Amy were trying to cling to the kindness of the late Kayla toward Yvette, which gave them the audacity to act brazenly in front of her.
They knew that Yvette wouldn’t kill them out of respect for Kayla. But they also
knew that if they fell into Jacob’s hands, it would be the end for them. “Yvette, you can’t treat us like this! Have you forgotten that we’re your adoptive parents?”
“No matter what, we have raised you, and you owe us for that…”
Tyler and Amy tried to play the emotional card.
“You have the audacity to talk about raising me?” At those words, Yvette’s expression turned frosty, radiating an air of hostility.
“After Grandma took me in, you wanted to abandon me, and you did it more than once,” she cried. “One winter when I was five, you took me out to the wilderness and left me in the snow. I nearly froze to death. If Grandma hadn’t found me and brought me back, I would have died in that blizzard.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
She was aware that their desire to abandon her never diminished; it was only Kayla’s attention toward her that prevented them from having another chance. “What?” Jacob’s expression changed instantly, his heart aching. He glared furiously at Tyler and Amy. He wished he could kill them on the spot.
“How could you treat Yvie like that?” he bellowed.
He could hardly imagine how much suffering Yvette had endured in such a family. No matter how they tried to make amends, they could never compensate for what she had gone through.
Wilson’s handsome face darkened, a violent air radiating from him that sent chills down everyone’s spine.
He didn’t know that Yvette had suffered so much. Killing them wouldn’t even be enough to relieve his anger!
