Chapter 140
After hearing Clara's words, tears filled my eyes.
After calling out, Clara chuckled and continued, "I've been calling you, but you're acting like you didn't
hear me. Are you stunned? You should try it for yourself, and I promise you won't be disappointed."
Zora headed straight for Clara, who was lounging on the couch. A fight was about to break out. But
Clara didn't move an inch, completely unfazed. She even dared to point at Zora, shouting, "If you dare
hit me, Zora, you're done for. I can get you arrested in a heartbeat. I have my backup just like you have
your dumb buddy Maddox. Just try it, I dare you. In half an hour, I'll have the cops at the door."
Clara swung her slim legs, pointing at her face, and she was confident in her threat.
Zora's hand, which had been raised, eventually dropped in defeat.
Clara laughed wickedly, "Zora, we're sisters. Why do you treat me as your enemy? I'm doing this for
your good."
It hit me and I immediately sent Clara the video of Marissa shopping with that kept man. Whatever Zora
was up to, I could screw her anytime. This was a golden opportunity that I couldn't miss.
Clara heard the beep and grabbed her phone. The image on the phone shook badly and settled on a
corner of the ceiling. And then I heard Clara laugh weirdly. She asked, "Zora, do you want my help?"
She added mysteriously, "I've got some really useful information. After all, we are sisters, so we should
help each other. I can help you deal with Marissa. What do you say?"
"What are you up to, Clara? What are you planning?" Zora's voice was laced with fatigue, evidently
worn out by Clara.
"I won't hurt you. I genuinely want to help you because you're my sister, and unlike you, I don't have a
heart of stone. We're related." Clara's voice was filled with taunting, "I can give you something very
valuable I just got. Don't believe me?"
I was sure Clara had seen the video I sent and was now setting a trap for Zora, especially with the
emphasis on the video being fresh.
"Look!" The next second, the sound from the video of Marissa started playing, then abruptly stopped.
"Give it to me." I heard Zora's voice. She was clearly hooked.
Clara must have shown her a glimpse of the video and then stopped it. Clara was sensible because
this move was sure to convince Zora that Clara had some powerful backup.
"I'm hungry, Zora." Clara's coquettish voice came through the phone. "I can't take it anymore because
I'm famished."
"You..." Zora was probably fuming. After a few seconds of silence, Zora's voice came again, "Wait a
moment."
The sound of footsteps followed, and I was sure Zora had given in and gone to make some food. Then
the video was cut off.
I sent Clara a message, "Be careful and delete our chat history. Zora can't know where the video
comes from. Be wary of her revealing this with Jaylan."
Clara replied with two words, "Get it."
I knew Clara was sharp. This was the quickest and most direct way to get the video to Jaylan.
Zora was impulsive. She would see this as her trump card and wouldn't leave herself any room for
retreat.
An hour later, Clara sent me a message, "She's seen it, and she's riled up. Now we wait and see."
I couldn't help but smile, imagining Zora's expression when she saw the video. Clara knew how to
torment Zora, but I had to admit, she also had a knack for being endearing.
Two days later, Jaylan returned with a beaming smile on his face. Upon entering, he plopped down on
the couch, even his fatigue seemed out of place. He looked at me and said confidently, "Sweetheart,
it's done."
I abandoned the aloof demeanor I had put on before he left and rushed over, excitedly asking, "Did it
go well?"
"More than well!" He said, full of confidence, and started teasing me, "Guess how well it went?"
I playfully slapped his leg, "Spill it, what happened?" NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
He laughed triumphantly, pulling me into his arms and planting a kiss on my face. He then wanted to
kiss me, but I pushed him away, "Don't do that. Get to the point."
