Chapter 400 Disappointed Me

"I... I didn't. Benedict, I really didn't... How could I..." Yelena paled with fright.

Meanwhile, Benedict, bristling with anger, abruptly stood up! "So this is how you act when I'm not around? What kind of stepmother are you? I trusted you! You've truly disappointed me!"

After speaking, Benedict glanced at Calista but didn't say anything out of guilt toward her and went straight upstairs. He did feel sympathy for Yelena, but if her past actions were brought up, he would still be angry. It was just that he couldn't bring himself to drive her away. Seeing that Benedict wouldn't listen to her explanation and had already assumed that she had done such a thing, Yelena was in a state of panic and confusion. She was both angry and afraid, but more than that, she was filled with a sense of despair and the painful realization of her reality!

It had only been two years. Before, when she was in that family, she had everything at her beck and call. How did everything change so suddenly?

"Are you satisfied now?" In a fit of uncontrollable rage, Yelena yelled at Calista. She knew she shouldn't have spoken, knew she should have held her tongue! However, seeing Benedict leave and her meticulously prepared dinner, which was a whole afternoon's work, ultimately benefiting Calista, she felt a surge of bitterness rise in her chest. She regretted not having poisoned the food!

Calista was sipping stew from a bowl, her eyelashes casting a downward shadow. "I find you to be quite peculiar."

Faced with Yelena, who was raging like a storm as if about to lose her sanity, Calista remained as calm and indifferent as a block of ice. "Are you not being a bit too hypocritical when treating others and yourself? You had me washing clothes in the dead of winter, saying it was to encourage my independence. You made me eat leftovers, claiming it was my duty. Yet, when the tables are turned, you act as if you've suffered the greatest injustice. Do you think everyone in the world is your mother?"
