Chapter 534: 185: A direct slap in the face, instigation fails! (Second update)



How did Sylvia Thompson know about her pregnancy and abortion?

Only she, Viola Thompson, and their two sisters knew about this.

In this moment,

Rachel felt as if all her strength was drained from her body.

She could barely stand.

She had thought that she could keep this secret from everyone forever, but unfortunately…

What now?

Rachel Barton clutched the railing by the road, her knuckles turning white from exertion.

“Yes,” Sylvia Thompson stared at Rachel with a triumphant expression, “You guessed right. The person who told me everything was none other than Viola Thompson – your so-called close friend, best sister.”

Sylvia Thompson’s voice was gentle, but her words cut like a knife, slicing into Rachel’s heart one strike at a time.

Bleeding profusely,

She tried hard to calm herself down, not to let anger cloud her judgment.

She could not let the villain exploit her weakness.

“Miss Si, you should have realized it early on – Viola Thompson is a two-faced person. In front of others, she seems innocent and harmless, indifferent to everything. In reality, she is the most disgusting person!”

Sylvia Thompson intended to sow discord between these close friends.

Viola considers herself above everything, doesn’t she?

Then Sylvia would make her experience the feeling of being betrayed by her best friend.

Everything was under her control.

At this thought, Sylvia narrowed her eyes.

The bond between Rachel Barton and Viola Thompson seemed deep, but it was in fact fragile as paper.

Just pierce it gently, and their true nature would be revealed.

Rachel took a deep breath, “Sylvia Thompson, you are trying to sow discord.”

Sylvia Thompson chuckled softly, her tone still gentle, “Actually…whether I am trying to sow discord or not, deep down, you know the truth. You just don’t want to admit it.”

Sylvia Thompson changed the subject, “Miss Si, I can understand how you feel right now. You and Viola have been good friends for many years. I’ve heard that you grew up together. But you have to understand that you are not in the same world as her now. She is the noble Young Miss of the Thompson Family, and you? You are nothing but a joke to her, something to laugh about in her leisure time. Maybe, in her heart, you’re not even worth a joke!”

At this point, Sylvia Thompson paused for a moment and continued, “The truth is that not only do I know about your secret, our entire family knows.”

“You, on the other hand, are still clueless, believing her to be your best friend and confiding everything in her.”

In the end, Sylvia Thompson pretended to sigh:

“How pathetic.”

At this moment, Rachel Barton had completely lost her composure, her eyes red with anger as she stared at Sylvia Thompson, “You are lying! It makes no sense for Viola to do this!”

“How does it not make sense? Miss Si, have you heard of the saying ‘green leaves set off red flowers’? Without your stupidity, how would anyone ever realize how kind and outstanding she is?” Sylvia Thompson continued, “Also, Viola has known for a long time that your biological parents swindled $150,000 from you. Do you know why she never exposed them?”

Rachel furrowed her brows, wondering why Sylvia knew so much?

Even the $150,000!

Rachel stepped back, her face as pale as a sheet.

Her body was ice-cold.

“Because from the beginning, she never intended to help you. She never considered you as a good friend.” Sylvia Thompson watched Rachel’s reaction with satisfaction, “If she valued your friendship as much as you do, she would never have let you board that train back to Rimount City.”

“The reason you suffered abuse and even got pregnant with that scum’s child is all Viola Thompson’s fault! Yet, instead of reflecting on her actions, she puts on a smug face!”

Rachel clenched her fists tight, “Shut up! Viola is not such a person! She isn’t!”

Sylvia Thompson heaved a sigh and spoke earnestly, “Miss Si, to be honest, I don’t want to meddle in other people’s affairs. It’s just that I feel that you are truly being deceived by Viola Thompson. After all, you and I are the same. We are both pitiful people. I sincerely treat her like a sister, but what about her? She has never given me a proper look. I know she looks down on me because she is the true Young Miss Thompson and I am just an adopted daughter of the Thompson Family.”

In the end, Sylvia Thompson’s eyes flashed with resentment.

So what if she’s just an adopted daughter?

Didn’t adopted daughters also deserve to be treated as human beings?

She would make Viola pay the price.

And Rachel was going to be her pawn – a pawn that would bring about Viola’s downfall.

Rachel Barton looked up at Sylvia Thompson.

Memories of the past played out before her eyes.

She and Viola hadn’t been friends for just a day or two.

It was Viola who had constantly guided her towards the light and gave her hope.

In those dark and hopeless days,

Viola was the only one she could rely on.

Just then, everything suddenly clicked for Rachel.

She looked at Sylvia Thompson calmly, “Listen! Sylvia Thompson, don’t think you can succeed in driving a wedge between us. Viola and I grew up together, and no one knows her character better than I do. She would never stoop to doing such a thing! The reason you’re saying this is simply because you want to use me against her and make us turn against each other.”

Realizing that her intentions were exposed, Sylvia narrowed her eyes, “Miss Si, after all that has happened, do you still want to deceive yourself? If it wasn’t Viola Thompson, how would I know all your secrets?”

“When someone harbors malicious intentions towards others, anything is possible. Besides, you are now the Second Miss Thompson of Capital City; nothing is beyond your reach if you want to know about it. You have no right to speak of Viola!”

After pausing for a moment, Rachel continued, “Yes, I am very stupid. If I had a little bit of intelligence, I wouldn’t have been fooled so miserably! But Sylvia Thompson, just because I’m stupid doesn’t mean I can’t tell right from wrong! My foolishness does not mean I can be used as a pawn by others. One day, the Thompson Family will see through your true colors and throw you out!”
