A Vengeful Girl

Lisa's words made Linda feel like throwing up.

After sending all the servants away, Linda threw aside the comic book and said,"Cut the crap. Say what you have to say!"

Startled by Linda's sudden outburst, Lisa tried to hold down her anger and replied,"Sister Linda, how could you say that? I am still your sister. You have not married into the Mu clan yet. Surely you still remember your own family."

"What do you expect?"

Linda had no idea what this so called "sister" had up to her sleeve. They had never been on good terms. Back in the Xia clan, Lisa had on multiple occasions tried to screw Linda over.

And that step-mother May Shen even tried to kill her, so naturally Linda didn't take kindly to her faked friendship.

"Linda Xia...You Sister Linda, it was all my fault. I was young and naive. I beg your forgiveness for whatever inconveniences I might have caused you."

Thinking about what her mother had said, Lisa begrudgingly apologized while grinding her teeth. She was about to swear something like Linda being a shameless mean old woman, but then she changed her mind.

Linda was confused. What's got into her? That venomous girl actually apologized! Where was that ingratiating attitude coming from?

"Lisa Xia, what do you want? If you have no other business, I would like to take a nap now."

Linda did not want to beat around the bush with this so called "sister".

"Nothing in particular. It is just that our parents say I am your only sister. They want me to come over here to keep you company before the wedding, lest you get lonely."

What kind of a lame excuse was that? Who came up with this idea? "I know no other sister but Cindy Xie," thought Linda.

After thinking for a while, Linda was convinced that it must have been the idea of her wicked step-mother.

While she was thinking, Linda beckoned a servant with a wave of her hand.

"Get a room for her to stay for a couple of days,"

Said Linda.

"Sister Linda, would you mind if I take a tour in your room?" asked Lisa out of the blue.
