Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession-Chapter 130: Not invited but she will still go

With a groggy mind, Ella dragged herself to the door.

When she opened it, she was greeted with an abrupt hug. Soon, her night suit had patches of wetness as Esther squeezed all the water content out of her eyes.

"Sis, how could this happen!"

Ella was fully snapped awake with that shriek.

"I am not dead yet, Essie. What are you crying for?"

Esther pulled back to look at Ella. But for a moment, she froze.

It was past midnight and Ella had obviously woken up from sleep but her skin seemed to be glowing. Her face looked thinner, and unlike before where her features were covered in her face fat, they were prominent.

"She rushed here as soon as she heard that you are in trouble and this is how you treat her? Quite ungrateful," A voice sounded from behind.

Ella tilted her head to the side and noticed Violet, Esther’s roommate standing near the door.

Esther snapped out of her reverie, "Sister, if you don’t want me here, I can leave..."

’’Since you are already here at this hour, it must be something urgent. Come on in."

Ella opened the door wide, welcoming the two girls inside.

Esther pulled out a few tissues and dabbed her tears, "Sis, these days, our parents were missing us so I was not in the dorms. After exams, I used to leave early. I only moved to dorms today and learnt about your bet with Professor Jenny from Violet..."

Ella sat on the chair near her study table.

Esther sobbed, ’’Sis, you have recently made it back to the university. How can you be the class topper? They are obviously bullying you... I want to ease your worries but...’’ she cried even harder.

With such great acting skills, who would ever be able to know that Jenny and Esther are related in a weird manner? Jenny was Dean Mo’s mistress, not his daughter, Dean Mo was secretly the head of the Mo Family that had taken over Mo Entertainment and Mo Jun was the heir of Dean Mo. As for Esther, she was Mo Jun’s fiancee...

Truly an eye-opening family.

’’And Professor Jenny, how can she be so evil to pick on you! I used to look up to her but she... she is such a disappointment!’’

Ella yawned.

Violet, who was acting like a bystander, could not stand Ella’s attitude, "She is crying because you are in trouble and you are not taking her words seriously at all!"

’’I am taking her words very seriously. I was just thinking," Ella turned to Ether, "There might be a way you can help."

Esther perked up, "Really? Sis, quickly tell me about it. Don’t hesitate. You should know that I can give away my life for your sake."

’’No, your life won’t be necessary. How about this? You take my place in the bet and fulfill the conditions. If you top, Professor Jenny leaves. If you don’t, then you take my place and leave the university."

Esther was taken aback when she heard that.

She looked at Ella but from the calm expression on her face, she could not figure out whether she was serious or joking.

From the corner of her eyes, Esther looked at Violet who was frowning slightly.

A glint flashed across Esther’s eyes and she meekly nodded, "That’s a good idea... if that will help you then I can... I can..."

"You can’t," Violet shot up to her feet and turned to Ella.

’’I don’t get you," Violet muttered. "Is this how you treat someone who rushed to check on you? As the elder sister, you should be the responsible person. Yet, you recklessly stepped forward to make a bet. And now that you are in trouble, you want to drag Esther into it as well."

Ella glanced at Violet. The girl was beautiful but what made her shine more was her fierce yet pure personality.

In their previous life also, she was fiercely protective towards Esther to the very end. Not knowing that her good friend would be the cause of her ultimate demise.

Feeling her lingering gaze, Violet frowned, "What are you looking at?"

Ella laughed, "I was just thinking those frowns don’t look good on your pretty face. What else?"

Violet: "_"

Esther: "_"

It took Violet a moment to realize something, "You were not serious earlier..."

"Of course, I was joking. How can I bear to push my sister into trouble?"

Outwardly, Esther squeezed out two more trails of tears. But her fingers curled slightly around the tissue. No one noticed how it tore between them.

The reason she had visited Ella was to see her crying after this mess. But not only did she look calm, she almost dragged her into this matter.

However, suddenly Esther’s lips curled, ’’Sis, this matter was so untimely. Since your situation is better now, I was hoping that you’d be there for our parents’ anniversary but..."

Esther lowered her head.

With Violet present, she kept her words vague but the ’situation better’ referred to how Adrian finally let Ella out of the Eve Mansion.

"It’s a pity that you won’t be there..."

’’Who said I won’t be there?" Ella cut her off.

Slightly stunned, Esther looked up at Ella, "But their anniversary is in 2 weeks and in 3 weeks, your results will be out..."

"So what? I have already written the answers. Staying here and sulking till the result week won’t increase my marks."

Esther’s fingers curled slightly. No, she could not go there. She should not! "Sis, our parents have not even invited you... Would it be appropriate for you to show up?"

She looked at Ella, expecting her to look disappointed or even sad.

On the contrary, Ella was not bothered, "I am their elder daughter. Why would I need an invitation for their big day?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

A vicious glint flicked in Esther’s eyes when she heard the terms ’elder daughter’.

When Ella’s words registered in her head, Esther was bewildered. In the past, Ella resented their parents for abandoning her during her scandal. Why did she seem to hold no grudge against them?

No matter what, Ella should not show up there. Just at the thought of that, Esther opened her mouth, "Sis, you really... really shouldn’t go..."

Just then, a firm grip closed around Esther’s wrist.
