Chapter 155
Tiffany’s face lost all color and life. She never thought that Charmine would get the backstage
closed-circuit television footage and printed the photos. She knew it would be over for her once the family lost faith in her.
Hastily, she rambled, “Mom, you have to trust me… Please trust me! …. I was just practicing the pose and looks for the show! As you know, they needed cool poses for the exhibition, so I was just practicing and getting in the mood!
“As for the transaction record, Veronica told me she needed the money, so I paid her without knowing what she was using the money for!”
Who would believe what she said? They sounded absurd!
Even if Veronica wanted to borrow some money, she would have asked for a whole number something like 20,000 bucks-instead of the exact 19,500 bucks, which just so happened to be the price for the halophilic bacteria! 1
Joey’s train of thoughts was all over the place. This was the first time she doubted Tiffany; the first time she had doubts about her judgment. Could it be that the daughter she trusted the most had a personality she never knew of? Did she even know this woman standing in front of her?
Drake glared at the photos and barked, “Someone, come and lock Tiffany into the prayer hall. She’ll be kneeling there to self-reflect for three days and nights. Nobody is allowed to send her food!”
‘Locked in the prayer hall for three days and nights’, kneeling consecutively’? ‘No food and drinks’?
Tiffany’s legs turned jelly instantly, and without Joey holding onto her, she collapsed onto the floor. She had never been punished before! Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
People would eventually find out if she got locked up in the prayer hall, and it would make her the laughingstock of the masses! How would she be looked at for the rest of her life? Terrified, she pulled on Joey’s arm and begged, “Mom, you have to help me! Please help me!
“I’m telling the truth! This isn’t who I am, and you know it! You raised me! You know I wouldn’t do such a thing to my sister, right?
“It was Charmine! She must be jealous of me getting all of your attention, so she captured these photos at special angles and used them to destroy me!”
Joey’s frown never left her face. She took a closer look at the photos and felt a chill when she looked at Tiffany in the photos. How were these taken at a special angle? Even if it was the angle, the fact that Tiffany could make such an evil look was downright terrifying!
Joey had always thought Tiffany was the sweetest and kindest girl ever since she was a child, yet she had such an evil side of her look…
Appalled, Joey sighed helplessly. “Tiffany, perhaps it’s best for you to have some alone time i n there,” she muttered. “I need some, too.”
Tiffany’s grip on Joey’s arm instantly loosened, and she collapsed onto the ground once again in despair. It was over. Even Joey lost faith in her.
Some maids came forward, ready to carry her away as no one intervened for her. Even Drake who had always been fond of her-had a serious face on as though in deep thought.
Tiffany knew it was over. This time, nobody was on her side.
“I’ll go if this is the case; I’ll be fine kneeling for three days. Grandpa, Dad, Mom, please take care for the next three days. Don’t be sad because of me, it’s my fault for worrying you…”
Tiffany knelt on the floor and slammed her head heavily against the floor, and the impact caused a dent to appear on her forehead. She did not seem to mind the pain as she sobbed quietly while being carried away by the maids. The silhouette of her weak and shaking body was painful to watch.
It was the hardest for Joey, she wallowed in misery as tears rolled down her cheeks. Tiffany was her favorite daughter! She had never punished her before yet had become so cruel, though it was not too late to correct her. As a mother, she could not do anything. She had to fix this.
Drake let out a long sigh. “Alright, you’re all dismissed. Nobody is allowed to talk about what happened today.”
The crowd was gathered today to get back the ten percent share, but now it seemed unlikelyt o get it back. They went away in disappointment.
As Joey walked toward the door and passed Charmine, she could not help recalling what Charmine said to her yesterday: ‘You’re always defending Tiffany and supporting Tiffany, but have you ever asked or listened to a word that I said?’
