The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 318 Stop Pretending

When Aaron made this statement, Jodie couldn’t believe it.

Even the others were taken aback.

It was the first time they had heard Aaron speak so harshly to his beloved sister.

But his words were true.

Had he finally seen through his kind sister’s true nature, so he became harsh?

Jodie, who was still crying in sadness, suddenly froze.

She couldn’t continue crying, nor could she stop.

She also started to resent Aaron. How could he mock me like this? Andrew treated me so well. Of

course. I’m worried. But I know he won’t die, so what difference does it make if I come to see him

earlier or later?

She pressed her lips together and looked at Aaron, saying, “Aaron, I know you blame me. But I really

wanted to do the vault with Andrew at that time. You misunderstood me.

“I was truly scared and guilty because I was the one who caused Andrew’s injury. If you want to blame

me, I accept it. I just want to wait here until Andrew comes out.”

She said firmly, “I can only let go of my worries when I see him come out unscathed.”

Her words seemed very heartfelt, but no one present believed her.

Aaron smirked. “How could Andrew come out unscathed when he’s so badly injured? I don’t know if

you’re too naive or if you simply don’t care about him. What’s the point of saying all this? When you

threw him out to protect you, I didn’t see you worry like this.”

He took a deep breath. “Jodie, don’t treat us like fools. Your actions have shown us that we have loved

an ungrateful thing for so many years. You’re just a snake to us now. We really can’t afford to provoke

you.

“We’re afraid of you, so we want to keep our distance. Can’t you understand that? If it were someone

else who did what you did before, they wouldn’t have the audacity to come here and pretend to be

worried. Only you, a heartless and ungrateful person, would have the audacity to continue pretending.

This time, Andrew not only suffered physical injuries, but you also hurt him emotionally. He won’t trust

you anymore, so don’t try to deceive him. He said he didn’t want to see you before going into the

operating room, so just leave.”

Chapter 318 Stop Pretending

Aaron spoke his mind, feeling relieved and refreshed.

He had been holding in his anger for so long.

Secing Jodie still pretending, he couldn’t bear it anymore. How could there be such a shameless

person?

Hearing Aaron’s sarcasm, Titus and Luca, who were watching the livestream, felt satisfied.

Among their brothers, Aaron had always been the most gentle and rarely got angry or made

sarcastic remarks.

They had to admit that Aaron had also expressed their thoughts, as they also wanted to curse Jodie

like this.

They felt like begging her to stop pretending to cry like this.

Did she really think tears could always be used as a weapon against them? They were not that foolish.

And looking at her crying like this, they felt disgusted.

Andrew hadn’t even died yet, and she was crying. It was really inauspicious. Was she hoping for

Andrew to die quickly?

In the hospital, Jodie was being scolded by her beloved brother for the first time.

She widened her eyes, truly unable to accept it, and looked at Aaron in disbelief.

“Aaron, how could you say that about me? I’ve been your sister since we were little! I feel sad about

what happened to Andrew, too. How could you say such things about me?”

In front of so many people and the live-stream audience, Aaron actually called her heartless and

ungrateful.

He said he didn’t want to provoke her anymore and just wanted to stay away from her.

Jodie was truly panicked at this moment, feeling her brothers were completely out of her control.

How could this be? She regretted even more that she had acted too quickly before. She should have

waited for Andrew to protect her.

That way, they wouldn’t be able to blame her like this.

Upon hearing Jodie’s words, Aaron first looked cautiously at Sinione, who had a calm

expression.

Then he said to Jodie, “It’s precisely because you grew up with us that we love you even more than our

own sister. And it’s because of your insinuations, provocations, and manipulation. that our sister’s

relationship with us has been severed.

“But how have you treated us in return? Every time, you show concern with your words, but you never

take any action. Every time something happens, you’re innocent, and we are the ones who have to

take the blame.

“And you even threw Andrew out to protect you. After going through so much, we have seen your true

colors. So, stop pretending. Everyone knows who you really are.”

He looked at the people around him and said, “You can ask anyone here. Who doesn’t know what kind

of person you are?”

Zac chimed in. “We do know; that’s why we always keep our distance from your dear sister. Otherwise,

we would be the unlucky ones.”

He knew best how to use cutting words.

Tina looked at Jodie with a hint of fear. “She’s truly malicious and terrifying. She intentionally caused

me to fall off the horse before. If it weren’t for Simone saving me, I would be in the operating room right

now. Jodie, you’re like a poisonous flower. Everyone knows it, so there’s no need for you to pretend

anymore.”

Zac agreed. “You always act like this. Even if you’re not tired of acting, everyone is fed up with it. It’s

not just us. Even the viewers in the livestream know what kind of person you are. Your innocent

persona has completely collapsed. You’re probably being criticized and trending right now. Why don’t

you just show your true colors and do whatever makes you happy?”

Jodie was rendered speechless. She wanted to silence these two people.

She also knew that she didn’t have a good reputation now. So, she decided to fully embrace the dark

and rebellious route since she couldn’t clear her name.

She glared at Zac and Tina and sneered. “You two are always targeting and isolating me because of

Simone. Say whatever you want. I’ll wait here for Andrew to come out so I can feel

at ease.

Simone rolled her eyes in disbelief. “Are you crazy? How does this have anything to do with

me:*

Zac was also feeling frustrated. “What does this have to do with Simone? Isn’t it because of your

personality that everyone dislikes you? You participate in a variety show but put on a facade. Who

enjoys that?

Haven’t you heard Jonah say that this variety show is supposed to be genuine? Among all the

guests, you’re the most insincere and artificial. It’s only natural that everyone rejects and dislikes you.

Don’t you think you should reflect on yourself?”

Even Keira couldn’t hold back this time. “Exactly. Why do we not reject Tina and others but keep our

distance from you? That’s because you’re too pretentious and too fake, and you have too many hidden

motives. We simply can’t like you.”

Chapter 319 Would They Handle This Matter?

Leon felt as though he was meeting Jodie for the first time.

What’s going on with her way of thinking? He frowned and asked, “What does Simone have to do with

any of this? Why are you involving her? For over a decade, you took on the role of the Gray Family

heiress and used various schemes to drive her away.

“And that’s not enough. Do you still want to keep tabs on her? Also, in these three episodes of the

variety show, it was always you who provoked Simone first, and then she fought back. You’re truly a

double standard. Just good at blaming others.”

How did he ever think that Jodie was a good person just because his mother said so? He had to admit

that, just like the Gray Family brothers, they were all deceived by her acting, and their judgment was

clouded.

Aaron also said coldly. “Jodic, this is a matter between you and our brothers. Why do you have to

involve Simone again? We have already hurt her for you. Don’t you think that’s enough? And do you

really think we are fools? After being provoked by you so many times, do you think we will still believe

you?”

Disappointment and coldness filled his eyes. “I never expected that the sister I loved for over a decade

would have such an ugly side.”

Impatiently, he asked again, “Can you stop causing trouble?”

Jodie’s expression changed when faced with accusations from so many people.

What she found most difficult to accept was that Leon and Aaron, who used to stand by her side, were

now all accusing her and siding with Simone.

She only said one thing about Simone, but they mocked and scolded her so much to protect Simone. It

was really enough.

Especially that sentence, ‘Can you stop causing trouble?’ It used to be directed at Simone.

But now, they were all directing it at her, making her feel hurt and unfairly treated, wanting to cry out in

frustration.

She couldn’t hold back and shouted, “A-All of you are bullying me. You’re all too much!”

Just then, a nurse came out with a cold face and said, ‘Please don’t make noise outside the operating

room. Be quiet!”

After she finished speaking, everyone looked at Jodie with disapproval and disgust.
