Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession-Chapter 41: Your sis is suffering from success
Chapter 41: Your sis is suffering from success
A few years ago... Her younger self had bad-mouthed Ruby terribly in public, amidst a group of elites and coincidentally...
Not so coincidentally, Ruby overheard everything. And then, not so coincidentally again... Esther also happened to come to her and gaslight her into believing that there was nothing wrong in her actions.
Ella wanted to know where her last two brain cells had gone during that time when she caused all this mess that she was having such a difficult time fixing.
’’Sister... Sister...’’
On her way back, Ella heard the panicky voice.
She continued walking.
Suddenly a hand grabbed her backpack in an abrupt movement that made her stagger.
Ella grabbed the hand and yanked it off.
’’Ah!" Esther staggered a few steps back while grabbing her wrist, ’’Sister...?" Her eyes filled with tears.
The onlookers stopped to watch the drama of the ’kind little sister’ being bullied by the ’evil elder sister’.
It seemed to Ella like although Esther was not as popular as the Imperial Goddess Ruby but she was still a campus beauty whom people adored.
’’Ah, it’s you?" Ella patted her shoulder like a kind elder sister who had just been startled earlier, ’’You caught me off guard, grabbing my backpack out of nowhere so I acted on my instinct...’’
Esther lowered her gaze and her eyes dimmed. Seeing that this foolish woman was walking in a daze, she had merely wanted to catch her off guard and get her to fall on the ground.
It was entertaining to watch her struggle there like a pest. Since she had already texted Adrian, she felt like making Ella suffer a bit more would be entertaining before Adrian makes her suffer even more.
But who could have known that she would react so violently?
Suppressing her anger, Esther smiled gently, ’’Sis, you were absent-minded and I wanted to stop you so I chased up to you as fast as I could...’’
Seeing that all was good between the sisters, the onlookers who were in for some drama, gradually dispersed.
Ella and Esther were the only people left in the area.
’’Oh? Was it something urgent?"
’’Sis, I just wanted to ask you... Are you going back to your room now?"
"Of course not, I have a date later this evening!"
Esther’s initially excited little face suddenly paled. If it was before, she would have been happy just thinking that Ella got herself involved with some other man.
But these days, she was talking about Adrian endlessly. She had even visibly learnt to fear and be cautious of the man.
Didn’t that mean she was going on a date with Adrian?
How could he go on a date with her after she had shown him such a humiliating side of Ella?
"Sis, you... you must be joking...’’
"At least you realize!"
’’Ah...?"
’’Of course, I am going back to my room. It’s not like you don’t know me. What kind of a question is that?"
Esther would have been angry for being led by the nose like that but hearing that, she was happy instead. Her suspended heart finally returned to its place.
’’Yes.. yes... It was silly of me..."
"I have to study so I will see you later! Bye~" Ella had barely taken a step when her hand was grabbed.
"Sis, I wanted to talk to you about something,’’ Inwardly, Esther was shocked.
Study? Since when did this fool start paying attention to studies? Hmph! Was she pretending to be all that great now?
Ella blinked, ’’If it’s nothing important, it can wait. My studies cannot wait.’’
Esther gnashed her teeth, ’’It is important,’’ Inhaling a deep breath, she said, ’’Sis, don’t you think you should go back to the Eve Mansion?"
Ella was a little intrigued.
Logically, Esther should be throwing a party thinking that Adrian was finally bored with her and he sent her away.
However, not only is she not celebrating, but rather, she genuinely seems to want her to go to the Eve Mansion.
’’Sis, Mr. King...’’
Ella raised a finger, cutting Esther off, ’’Brother-in-law.’’
Esther was stunned for a moment, but then her face turned red. Her blood was boiling.
She gritted her teeth, ’’B-Brother-in-law...’’ Let’s see how long you can be this cocky! "He... He is a paranoid person. And with his past actions, don’t you think he would chain you back to him if you don’t pay him any attention? Sis, I am afraid that he will drag you back to the Eve Mansion and you will be missing out on your studies...’’
After speaking, Esther felt more assured. No matter what, she would gaslight Ella into visiting the Eve Mansion. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
With Adrian’s noble identity, there was no way he would visit this lame person in the university.
If these two people did not meet, then how would the drama she had orchestrated play out?"
However, Ella’s response rendered her speechless.
’’Nonsense! What paranoid?" Ella waved her hand back and forth as if she heard a joke, ’’Your brother-in-law is just extra clingy with me just like a big soft koala. Stop making it sound like I am suffering a crisis.’’
Esther’s jaw dropped,"But, sis... he...’’
’’He is handsome and rich. Cares for me and is loyal to me. Has no eyes for desperate banshees who float around him. He is absolutely all that I need in my ideal man,’’ Ella patted Esther’s shoulders, ’’Such a cutie~"
’’But you...’’
’’Me? Stop worrying about me. Your sis is suffering from success! Now be a good girl and don’t bother me with such trifles. Bye~’’
"Wait, sis!"
This time, Ella did not even stop as she walked away with urgent footsteps.
Esther was stunned. Ella was obviously as foolish and sweet as usual but why did her words sound like—
Stop worrying about my man. How we get along is none of your business. Also, stop talking nonsense with me and scram quickly.
Esther shook her head. No way it could be like that... She was probably overanalyzing things.
She clenched her fists. You bitch, just you wait... I will see how long you can play safe.
...
After reaching the room, Ella completely cleansed the interaction with Esther out of her mind.
It was obvious that the girl had come with some ulterior motives but Ella was unafraid as of now.
She hadn’t messed with Adrian in any way as of recently so Esther couldn’t really dig a problem out of nowhere, could she?
