Even after Her Death by Rita Bond

Chapter 347 Just An Impostor Chapter 347 Just An Impostor

The day of the charity concert.

For the past few days, I had been busy handling matters related to the Gardner Group's branch office Today, I made sure to arrive early for the rehearsal. Holding my gown, I was heading to the changing room when I spotted Sadie and Ashley arguing around the corner of the hallway.

"I heard Bill is back in Snowville. It's been a long time-is he still angry with you?" Ashley asked.

Sadie's face darkened at the mention of Bill. She tried to hide it, but I could tell she was probably remembering the day she almost got strangled. "Yeah," she responded casually, brushing it off.

"You're father and daughter. There's no reason to hold a grudge. I heard he's starting the project with the Bolton Group soon. Could you just apologize with him? You know, things haven't been going well for me at home. I'm counting on Bill to give me a way out," Ashley pleaded. Apologize for what? I haven't done anything wrong." Sadie said, her voice growing impatient

"Sadie, I heard Zoey has been shadowing Bill lately, getting to know all the company processes. Bill's even introduced her to some of his business partners. I'm worried he's planning to hand the branch over to her. And here you are, still sulking-if you keep this up Sadie slapped his hand away, growing annoyed. "Are you done? I have a competition to attend. We'll talk later."

"Sadie....

Ashley hesitated, unwilling to let this go, yet dared not push her further. He still hoped to get in with the Gardners.

Unfortunately for him, his plan was about to fall apart.

In just a short while, a major spectacle would unfold.

We had rehearsed several times. Now, whenever Sadie saw me, she started to avoid me, clearly not wanting any trouble.

The group went a few rounds, and everything went smoothly. Although Yael was present, he never had the chance to speak to me, with too many classmates around.

Still, his eyes dccasionally drifted toward me, sending achill down my spine.

It felt like he was sizing me up like prey.

Before we went on stage, a classmate whispered, "Sadie, I heard the president of the Gardner Group is here today. Is your dad coming to support you?"

At the mention of Bill, Sadie's face turned pale. "M-my stomach hurts. I think I need to get some rest."
