Chapter 196
Jarvis scoffed, “Everyone’s saying you’re too harsh on your sister. Why don’t you talk about that?”
“Harsh?” Celeste chewed on the word before suddenly asking Angel, “Angel, since you came to our family, have I treated you badly, or have my parents mistreated you?*
Angel was still thinking about Celeste’s recent changes, and was caught off guard when her name was mentioned. Wasn’t this exactly what she had been thinking?
She immediately pretended to be scared, “No…no, everyone’s been good to me. You always think of me and let me have my share. Jarvis, just drop it.” The more she acted like this, the more Jarvis felt he was upholding justice and showing his heroic spirit. “She lets you have your share, but she also lets you wear old clothes and eat leftover cake? Celeste, did you think that just because so many years have passed and Angel deleted the posts, no one would remember all those things?”
“I’m also puzzled, Celeste suddenly put on a heartbroken expression, and said sadly, “Angel, ever since you joined the Campbell family, I’ve treated you like my own sister. I share everything with you, my favorite dresses, my favorite cakes, anything I think is good, I want to give to you. Even the jewelry set my husband gave me when we got married, aren’t you wearing it right now?”
Angel was startled and unconsciously tried to hide her hand.
The necklace she wore, the bracelet on her wrist, and even the earrings were all part of the Reed family’s gifts to Celeste.
Of course, the jewelry set wasn’t given to her by Celeste but rather by Shawn, because Celeste thought it was ugly.
Angel resented Celeste but loved the jewelry set.
Worth over three million, the set is very rarely worn. She had only put it on today for the special occasion, only for Celeste to recognize it and use it as leverage
Her face turned ugly. The Reed family members were all present, and there was no denying the truth.
Celeste, that bitch! She really underestimated her!
She gritted her teeth to suppress her anger and whispered, “I remember all the good things you’ve done for me, sis.”
“Why did you put those comments on the internet if you remember? Celeste’s tone changed suddenly, exuding sharpness.
Angel panicked, realizing that she was being counterattacked by Celeste.
But Celeste turned the tide and relentlessly pursued her, “If you have any problem with the way you’re treated, you can talk to me directly. Why do you have to make such statements? Because of those words, I was alienated at school and then rejected by my dream school. I don’t blame you for that. I just can’t understand why you did it?”
In fact, the dream school issue was made up by Celeste. They actually did grant her an offer, but she decided she didn’t like the school very much and gave it up herself.
But what does the truth have to do with it, as long as people believe whatever they hear?
Celeste’s series of counter-questions steered the conversation in a different direction.
“I heard about that incident back then. I have a cousin who was classmates with Celeste. They were close and often hung out together. When Celeste went shopping she would always get two of everything. My cousin asked her why, and she said it was because she had a sister at home. After the incident blew up online, my cousin was quite surprised because just a week before the incident, she and Celeste were out shopping for a birthday present for her sister”
