Chapter 1023
Always Been Yours
Chapter 1023 Letâs Talk At this very moment, she hated Tessaâs guts in her heart. This b*tch is simply the bane of my life! âNo, I canât sit on my hands like this.â Gnashing her teeth in hatred, she worked her brains at full speed before an idea soon came to her mind. She picked up the phone on her bedside table and dialed a number, saying, âEunice, letâs talk.â
After a momentâs silence, Euniceâs nonchalant voice sounded through the phone. âI donât remember having anything to talk about with you.â
Susan sneered. âIs that so? Well, it seems that I have no choice but to talk to Tessa then.â Just as she pretended to hang up the phone, she heard the sound of Eunice clenching her teeth. âHold on!â
âIâll be waiting for you at the hospital. If youâre not here in half an hour, Iâll have no choice but to call Tessa instead,â Susan said before hanging up right away.
Less than half an hour later, Eunice showed up in the ward with a rather sullen expression. âWhy did you ask me to come over? Shoot!â She looked at Susan while holding her head high arrogantly.
Without beating around the bush, Susan came straight to the point, asking, âIt was you who caused what happened to the stage elevator, wasnât it? Also, it was you who bribed the stage operator to frame me, no?â Despite her questions, she sounded very positive about it.
Euniceâs eyes flickered for a moment before she warned in a serious tone, âSusan, stop throwing mud at me here, or I can sue you for slander.â
Susan stared at her maliciously. âHa! You know very well whether Iâm throwing mud at you.â
Eunice was creeped out by her stare, feeling as though she were being stared at by a venomous snake. Even so, she kept on playing dumb while refusing to admit it, saying, âWhat do I know? Didnât you purposely drug Tessaâs cosmetics out of jealousy and bribed the stage operator into causing the stage incident for fear that the drug wasnât potent enough?â
âThatâs f*cking bullsh*t!â Susan swore at once in a fit of rage. âIt was you who plotted the stage incident, but you worried that your reputation would be ruined if you were found out by Tessa and others. As it happened, what I did was found out, so you decided to shift the blame onto me and make me a scapegoat for you. Iâm telling you, thereâs no way you can make me take the blame for you!â
Feeling somewhat unnerved at first, Eunice was instantly relieved as she looked at the angry woman before her. She thought the latter had merely guessed the truth without finding any evidence of it.
Instantly, she smirked with disdain, saying, âYouâd better have proof to back up your story. If you have no proof of it, then everything you say is just a slander against me.â
Seeing how the woman wouldnât admit what sheâd done, Susan gnashed her teeth in resentment. The next instant, she rolled her eyes as an idea sprang to her mind. âWho told you that I have no proof of it?
Iâve found proof of what you did, and itâs in my fatherâs hands. Otherwise, what do you think gave me the courage to confront you here?â Holding her chin high, she looked at Eunice with a sneer and continued, âIt doesnât matter if you donât admit it now. The police will arrive very soon, anyway. And besides, I know why you did it. You did it to have Nicholas to yourself, no?â
As soon as she finished her speech, Euniceâs face instantly changed color, and her expression darkened.
At the sight of this, Susan narrowed her eyes, becoming even more certain that this woman was the culprit behind the stage incident!
A brief silence reigned over the ward. A moment later, Euniceâs voice rang between clenched teeth.
âWhat do you want?â
âWhat I want depends on the choice you make.â Susan smirked smugly, knowing that Eunice had admitted it at last. âI can refrain from giving you away, and I know that you dislike Tessa. As it happens, I donât like that woman either. I think we can work together to drive her away, but on condition thatâ¦â
She intentionally paused for a moment to look at Eunice.
Eunice asked with a look of displeasure, âWhatâs your condition?â
âYou have to give me a place in Group Two when my arm is fully healed,â Susan said. She knew full well that she wouldnât have the chance to stay in Group Six anymore after this timeâs incident, so she had to find the best way out for herself.
Naturally, Eunice also thought of this, and her brows furrowed. âThatâs not up to me.â
