Chapter 12
 

Yeva was blinded by rage. With her hands held high, she was confident that Sage would be badly injured.

However, it was as if Sage had eyes at the back of her head, she tilted her head just as the vase would have made contact. She turned around and grabbed Yeva’s hand, which still clutched the vase.

Immediately after that, the vase had somehow ended up in Sage’s hands. Leaving Yeva no time to react, Sage landed a hard slap on Yeva’s right cheek, causing her to fall to the ground with a screech of pain. “Aaah!”

Yeva felt slightly dizzy before feeling the burning sensation on her right cheek. She could not bring herself to get back on her feet.

“How dare you?!”

With a cold expression Sage threw the vase to the floor, and, with a loud bang, the vase shattered. Yeva curled up and yelled another terrified scream as she covered her ears.

Sage, on the other hand, approached her. Yeva inched back as Sage advanced. Eventually, her back was against the wall, and she stared at Sage, terrified. “You… don’t come any closer…”

“Weren’t you just about to attack me a few minutes ago? Giving up already?”

Sage reached out her hand and Yeva thought that she was going to hit her again so she closed her eyes tightly. However, Sage had only intended to mess her hair.

“You are a cousin that I was fond of, and I’m sure that I had never treated you badly. So, tell me why you hate me to the point that you and Julian came up with a plan to get rid of me?”

It was only after that did Yeva open her eyes and stared into Sage’s eyes. Then, she scoffed, “You really don’t know, do you?”

Sage studied Yeva carefully. She knew that there must be a reason for Yeva’s hatred.

Staring at Sage, who still looked beautiful under the dim yellow light, Yeva was slowly engulfed with jealousy and resentment. So shocked was she, that she was unable to say what she felt.

“You, me, and Leah, we’re supposed to be cousins, but how did we grow up in very different environments? Your dad is the chairman of Norah Group, and you are your parents’ only child. You were their precious little girl, the apple of their eyes. They made sure to give you everything that you want; everything that you asked for. They hired a private tutor when you didn’t want to go to school, and they even bought an entire rose garden just because you like roses. Everyone in Salem City knows of you, but what about me? My parents had divorced when I was still very young, and my dad was a mere manager at a state-run company. All my clothes were your hand-me-downs.”
