Chapter 745

Glynnis was ranting and raving in front of Marilla like a rabid dog, spewing venom with every word, her actions serving as an unwitting confession of her own downfall.

For a moment, Marilla’s clear, doe–like eyes widened in shock. It was then she noticed the hearing aids hanging on Glynnis‘ ears, previously obscured by her hair, which Marilla hadn’t seen clearly.

“You bitch. I may be deaf, but I won’t let you get off easy before I leave. I’ll make you deaf too!”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Glynnis, with a surge of fury, drew back her arm and aimed a wrath–filled blow at Marilla’s face!

Unexpectedly, the sister who had once been her victim nimbly dodged aside. Then with a sharp crack, Marilla, in a reflexive move she had never made before, slapped Glynnis across the cheek!

Even the passing servants froze in shock, followed by a surge of secret satisfaction. Ms. Marilla Abernathy was finally standing up for herself. It looked like she would be the one calling the shots for the Abernathy family!

“Ah!” Glynnis howled, clutching her face.

This was the first time Marilla had ever hit someone. It might not have hurt much, but her pride was shattered.

“Sis, no, you’re not my sister.”

Marilla curled her fingers and shook her head gently, “The moment you betrayed me, you ceased to be my sister. But I won’t resent or hate you anymore because you’re not worth it. With that slap, we’re even.”

“Even? Ha! Our feud will last a lifetime! I’ll fight you to the end!”
