CHAPTER 56: CHAPTER 56: THIS NECKLACE WON’T DO

Zoe Quinn would consider she was wrong? I fear she still doesn’t think what she did in the past, even the event four years ago, was wrong.

Moreover, those eyes full of smiles only gave Serena Sullivan a chilling vibe.

What is she up to!

"Sis," Zoe Quinn continued, "I specifically bought this necklace for you. You know? When I first saw it, I felt it really suits you."

Serena Sullivan, this useless person, only deserves a trash necklace.

"You’re generous, can you forgive me, please?"

With reddened eyes, Zoe Quinn softly gazed at Serena, "From now on, you can stay by Ethan’s side, I won’t have any objections."

Claire Sullivan is already helping Serena find a man, once they find one, Serena has to obediently leave Ethan.

Hm? Zoe Quinn’s words are interesting; is she planning on having Ethan at home, and another one outside?

"Sis!"

Zoe Quinn leaned close to Serena, her perfume smell was strong, causing Serena to frown.

Serena leaned back, her gaze inadvertently landed on the necklace Zoe wore around her neck.

The necklace looked familiar. Earlier, outside the office, she heard them say that this necklace was Zoe’s gold prize-winning design from "The Brilliance Competition."

Claire adored her so much, she found someone to custom-make it; there’s only one in the world.

"This one won’t do!"

Zoe noticed Serena staring at the necklace on her neck, and quickly stood up straight, using her hand to cover it.

"Sis, this necklace is the design I won the ’Brilliance Award’ with due to my competence."

Zoe turned her back to others, her eyes fixed on Serena.

Under the mask, she spoke the words with a strong smile, eyes filled with waves of mockery, intentionally pausing and emphasizing at the word "competence."

Others didn’t understand the meaning behind these words, but Serena knew.

No one understood why Zoe won the grand prize at "The Brilliance Competition" better than Serena.

Now, wearing this necklace and swaying it purposefully in front of her, is Zoe inviting a harsh slap?

If her leg wasn’t disabled, Serena would definitely stand up and deliver a slap.

"This one really won’t do!"

Seeing the anger in Serena’s eyes, Zoe shook her head, pretending to be scared, saying, "I know you really like it, but it was a gift from mom to me."

As Zoe spoke, memories of the past events at "The Brilliance Competition" came flooding back to Serena.

Back then, she had just been dumped by Ethan, and at Zoe’s instigation, she participated in this competition.

Unaware, Zoe planned to step over her to rise.

In the competition, when she presented her design, Zoe suddenly rushed in, tearfully accusing and questioning why she stole her work.

Moreover, the evidence she presented, especially the witnesses that appeared, pushed Serena into a bottomless pit, tasting betrayal, and heart-wrenching pain!

After all this, Serena finally saw how her seemingly good sister wore a wolf’s hide.

Not to mention, what Zoe did to her afterward!

Sickening! Sickening! Sickening!

Recalling this, all of Serena’s anger and disgust became visible on her face, tightening the hand on the computer mouse, closing her eyes to calm herself, once opened again, the hostility and hatred gradually faded away.

Zoe saw the change in Serena’s expression, recalling last time when Claire wanted to bring her back to The Sullivan Family, Serena’s panic; turns out, her weakness is here.

"Sis!" she deliberately called again, Serena coldly glared back, spat a single word, "Get out!"
