The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 143 One's True Self Is Exposed

There was a sudden noise. For an occasion like that, it sounded like somebody was sawing wood noisily all o f a sudden in the middle of a melodious piano song. Susan’s ears hurt slightly because of it.

She turned around and frowned inevitably.

"Yvonne!” Susan greeted her calmly.

She was never on good terms with Yvonne. When they were young, Yvonne always appeared arrogant whenever they spent time playing together. But they were young during that time. Susan did not even care about the arguments they had during their fights.

But her parents passed away accidentally.

Yvonne's father was her father’s only younger brother. The police hoped that he could adopt both her and her brother.

Her uncle was too embarrassed to reject that suggestion.

When the police were there, they appeared gentle. But when the police left, everything changed.

Her uncle was cold and cruel, and her aunt sneered at them. Besides, Yvonne changed and bullied her in a more outrageous manner.

At that time, her brother left school for work. She was all alone in that home, so she could only be extremely

careful there.

She would endure everything if her aunt wanted to scold her.

She would let it be even if Yvonne wanted to bully her.

Only then she could stay there.

Otherwise, where could she go after losing her parents?

During those days, she would be terribly injured after she was bullied by them. When her brother returned home, she would smile and lie to her brother, claiming that she had enjoyed another interesting game.

Until one day, her brother bumped into the scene where Yvonne was bullying her.

Her brother was extremely angry. He punched Yvonne once directly and held Susan’s hand tightly. Then, they left the Shelbys without any hesitation.

Susan still remembered that all she could do at the time was look at Jacob in a daze. Then, she asked him where they were heading and where their home would be.

Besides, Susan still remembered distinctly that Jacob’s eyes became teary all of a sudden.

He held her hand and said seriously, "Susie, don't be afraid. I'm here with you. I'll certainly give you a home."

He said so, and he fulfilled his promise successfully.

Although they went through such a traumatic change, Susan was only bullied and treated unfairly when she was staying with the Shelbys. Later, she did not face any kind of cruelty or unfairness.

It was because she was being protected well by her brother.

Since then, she almost lost all contact with that family.

However, her brother was in a car accident a year ago. When she had run out of options, she went and begged the Shelbys for help as she wanted to borrow some money from them.

But they made her leave.

Susan thought about the past. However, she still looked at Yvonne calmly.

For her, her family member was only her brother. Although Yvonne was related to her by blood, Yvonne was less than a stranger for her. i

"Yes, it's me." Yvonne raised her head and looked at Susan disdainfully. "Susan, listen to me. You're not suited to attend an occasion like this. Please get out of here immediately."

Yvonne thought that she had a good plan.

Mandy hated Susan extremely. If she managed to help Mandy ask Susan to leave the party, Mandy would certainly respect her.

Then, her entire family would be much more influential and powerful with the aid of the Ainsleys.

"Sister, please stop talking now.” Isabelle reached them and grabbed Yvonne. She looked at Susan apologetically, "Susie, I'm sorry. I didn’t manage to persuade her against it."

Looking at Isabelle, Susan was soon filled with a tinge of gentleness.

Isabelle was the only one who never bullied her at that home. She always helped Susan secretly.

However, she had limited resources and abilities. She was unable to help Susan much.

But Susan always remembered how nice Isabelle treated her.

"It's fine. You’re not wrong.” Susan smiled.

"Isabelle, are you crazy?" Yvonne shoved Isabelle away. "Why did you apologize to her? Did she deserve i t?"

"Sister, she's our family."

"Family? We don't have such embarrassing relatives!" Yvonne smiled coldly. "Susan, do you know what kind of party this is? How dare you sneak in here? I’m going to be outright frank with you. The plate of desserts on your hand might cost your monthly salary! A person like you deserves only to eat the cheap food a t the hawker stalls by the road. You don’t deserve to wear a prestigious dress and put on a show here!"

Then, Yvonne appeared suspicious. "I only realize now that you have quite a good dress there. Don't tell me that you stole it from somewhere else.”

"It’s none of your business.” Susan rolled her eyes. She intended to lead Jacob away.

Yvonne was nervous when she saw that Susan was leaving.

She stretched her hand out and grabbed Susan's hand. She said in a piercing voice, "How shameless you are! How could you do such sneaky and cunning things here? It's outrageous!"

Yvonne's voice grew louder. The others soon frowned and looked toward them.

Susan was extremely embarrassed. She tried her best t o shove Yvonne away.

Yvonne thought that Susan was afraid of her. She could not help but become slightly smug. She said loudly, "Susan, just show me the invitation card if you dare. If not, do you know what kind of consequences will be waiting for you given that you've sneaked into a place like this?”

"Sister, you're crossing the line,” Isabelle advised her weakly at the side.

"Just shut up." Yvonne pushed her harshly.

Isabelle staggered and she nearly fell down on the floor.

"Isabelle, are you alright?" Susan was shocked.

"I'm fine.” Isabelle seemed rather weak. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Susan looked at Yvonne as she was slightly angry now. "What on earth do you want to do?”

The others turned their attention to them. Yvonne became much more excited now.

They could then witness how hard she tried to prove herself.

"What do I want? I want to expose your true identity. I doubt you’re planning to take this chance to steal the things here since you and your brother snuck into the party."

"Steal?" Susan looked at Yvonne in disbelief. She could not help but wonder at how ridiculous Yvonne’s thoughts were.

"That's right." Yvonne felt that she had made a right guess. She looked at Susan disdainfully. "I remember that you came to borrow money from us a year ago just to help cure your brother's illness. It’s impossible for you to have that much money to pay for the medical fees for your brother's illness. You must have planned a scheme here. You want to steal things here just to gain a load of money. Susan, what a good plan you have there! Unfortunately, you bumped into me. I know about your past and identity clearly.”

Yvonne was still messing with Susan, and they were surrounded by quite a number of people now.

Jacob frowned and said in a deep voice, "Susie, it’s

noisy."

"Brother, we won't bother about her. Come, let's go there," Susan said immediately.

She supported Jacob and intended to leave the scene.
