Chapter 37 Fake’s Fake

“Yvette, you’re despicable!” Even through the phone, I could feel Moore’s teeth clenching

Her unhappiness was my joy. I chuckled. “I couldn’t possibly be more despicable than you.

You’ve brazenly moved into the Youngs” old manor as a mistress. How could I compete

with that? Tell me, what do you want?” I had no intention of engaging in pointless banter

with her.

Perhaps sensing that Idris was not with me, she snorted coldly, no longer hiding her

ambition, and said straightforwardly,” Yvette, for the sake of our sisterhood, I’m giving you

a choice. Terminate your pregnancy and leave the Youngs. Then we can still be sisters in

the future.”

I almost laughed, replying to the phone, “Sisters? Moore, you must be jolding. Do you

She seemed fearless, her voice sharp. “Find out? Yvette, what can you even find? No one

to cling to Idris shamelessly, don’t blame me for not considering our kinship.”

I laughed. “I appreciate your concern for this kinship, but no thank you. The Young family

isn’t so easy to get into, Moore. Madam Young might’ve let you into the old manor, but do

you really think giving birth to a child will elevate your status? You should have more

realistic dreams. Just a reminder that Madam Young cares about the incident from five

years ago, so what more will she care about you, a woman who’s been married before?”

“Married before?” She practically spat the words through clenched teeth. “Yvette, if it

weren’t for my last marriage, do you think you could’ve stepped into the Young

household? The position of the Youngs‘ daughter–in–law should’ve been mine. You’ve

usurped my place for two years, and it’s time for you to step aside now.

Listening to her, I could not help but want to laugh, “Usurped? Yvette, do you really think

you’ve managed to fool everyone about what happened back then? That no one knows?

Do you really believe that no one knows how you got that gunshot wound? Do you think

you can manipulate Idris for the rest of your life with that wound?”

“You What do you mean?” Her tone had lost its arrogance, now tinged with panic.

Noticing her reaction, I was even more convinced of my suspicions and scoffed. “You

must’ve been surprised about how quickly you were found and taken to the hospital that

day, weren’t you? And even more surprised why the Youngs were so attentive to you,

right? I guess you still don’t understand why Idris fell for you.”

“Yvette, what nonsense are you spouting?!” Moore screamed into the phone, “What

exactly are you trying to say?”

Hearing her panic, I smiled faintly and slowly said, “I don’t want to say much. I just want

to tell you that fake pearls will never shine. You can’t deceive everyone forever.”

“Shut up!” She almost roared the words, her emotions barely under control. “Yvette, don’t

try to scare me with your little

I was amused. “If I was just acting, why would you be so nervous? Idris might have been

blind to everything back then, but do you think he wouldn’t carefully think about what

happened after the fact? If the details don’t match up, do you think he wouldn’t be

suspicious?”

After that, I hung up the call.

My forehead throbbed with pain. I originally thought that Moore and Idris got together

because they were in love and attracted to each other. However, after discovering Moore’s

gunshot wound at the Youngs‘ and considering Mr. Zachary’s words, I could not help but

connect it all to what happened five years ago.

After I fell off the cliff back then, I had prepared myself for death and had not planned on

having anything more to do with Idris. So even after returning to Lake City, I did not revisit

those days at the border. Also, whenever I thought about that time, I would become

emotionally and mentally unstable. Over time, I buried those memories deep inside,

unwilling to recall them.

I had thought Idris felt the same, that after returning, he did not want to remember those

days and had let them fade from his memory. However, Mr. Zachary said that Idris and

Moore had been together since they returned from the border. Knowing

Idris‘ character, having gone through so much cruelty, he would not have fallen for

someone else so quickly. Could it be that Moore confused him and took advantage of his

vulnerability?
