Chapter 443 An Exchange Between Two Sides
Once Yara stepped into the room, she beelined for Scarlett’s bedside.
At that time, Scarlett was concentrating on reading a Snow White-themed comic with an IV attached to
the back of her hand.
“Ms. Scarlett.” Yara stared at Scarlett pointedly. “I heard you got into an accident two days ago. How are
you feeling now?”
Scarlett’s hand paused in flipping a page and turned her attention to Yara.
“Do I know you?” Scarlett asked naively, with her head tilted to the side.
“Don’t you remember who I am?” Yara held Scarlett’s hand and uttered softly under her breath, “You
used to hate me because I gave birth to Samuel’s children, Franklin and Sophia.
“It doesn’t matter whether I’m married to Samuel because my son will be the heir of the Bowers family.”
She wore a gentle smile on her face as she spoke. It was a stark contrast to the ruthless words coming
out of her mouth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZayden couldn’t hear the conversation between Yara and Scarlett and merely assumed Yara was
treating Scarlett like a child.
Scarlett’s pupil constricted.
“What is an heir?” Scarlett clung onto Yara’s arm, then asked Zayden, “Uncle, do you know what is it?”
Yara pointed at Zayden with a gaping mouth and asked Scarlett with disbelief, “You call him uncle?”
“Yeah.” Scarlett nodded her head and answered naively, “He’s nice to me. He bought many storybooks
for me and fed me a lot of yummy food. I want to marry a man like him when I grow up.”
Zayden is Scarlett’s biological brother.
Then wouldn’t her words be defying morality?
Zayden’s expression turned somber at Scarlett’s words. “I’m your brother. You can’t say such things in
front of others.”
“Have I said something wrong?” Scarlett rubbed her eyes and looked at Zayden with teary eyes.
“Th-That’s not what I mean.”
Scarlett was his elder sister, yet her mind was of a five-year-old. She even called him uncle. He was
turning mad too.
“Don’t cry. Sorry, I shouldn’t have scolded you.”
Scarlett didn’t let the tears drop and instead folded her arms and turned her face to the side with pouted
lips.
Yara merely observed silently from the sides and came to a conclusion.
Even though Scarlett is alive, she has lost her mind. She is nothing but a mere fool…
I used a brick to hit her head, yet she didn’t recognize me. Also, Zayden’s troubled look didn’t seem fake.
Well, it doesn’t matter if she’s dead or crazy. The results are the same.
She’s pitiful enough. I don’t need to add more salt to the wound.
After achieving her motive, she flung Scarlett’s arm off hers then got up from the bed.
“Mr. Zayden, it seems like you will need a lot of effort to take care of your sister.”
Yara left after leaving that comment to Zayden with a smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the door shut behind her, Scarlett lowered her head and dropped the storybook in her hand.
Zayden walked over and bent down to pick up her book from the floor. As he returned the book to her, he
noticed her eyes were full of unshed tears.
“What’s wrong?”
“Brother…”
It was the first time Scarlett had recognized Zayden as her brother and not as an uncle.
“Scarlett, do you recognize me?” Tears filled Zayden’s eyes. He cried, “Do you know you had scared me
to death!”
“I didn’t want that.” Tears were streaming down Scarlett’s face as she laughed. “The Bowers family won’t
let me go. What more that person. Pretending to be crazy is my only way out.
“I finally realized that Grandpa isn’t cruel. He had to chase me out of the Hamilton family to protect our
family. I know this now after going through a life-and-death situation.
“If I want to live in the Hamilton residence safely and quietly, I have to pretend to be a crazy person. So
the others wouldn’t pay any attention to me.”
