The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 140 The Cruel Reality

Yasmin couldn't wrap her head around the fact that Allison was being nice to her. She was practically obsessed, insisting that Allison cover everything up and clear her name. But Allison had had enough of her nonsense. "Yasmin, what happened five years ago was your doing. You can't hide from it, but you were only thirteen then," Allison said, leaving Yasmin speechless.

Teachers and classmates tried to comfort Yasmin, but she pushed them away and stood in front of Allison. "Allison, I was wrong. Please forgive me, for the sake of us being sisters."

Allison crossed her arms, her eyes cold as ice.

"Yasmin, I will never forgive you, and you will pay for what you've done! And another thing..." Allison leaned in and whispered something in Yasmin's ear, making her go pale with shock.

"Don't ever think of provoking me again, Yasmin, or you'll lose everything you have!" Allison warned.

With that, Allison walked away without a second thought, ignoring the judgmental stares of others.

"Allison, you're too much! You slander your own sister. I think you're just jealous of Yasmin being better than you, so you want to ruin her!" an onlooker shouted indignantly.

Before Allison could respond, Mia jumped in, "You all must have wasted your education. The evidence has been verified by the court; it's all true. Yasmin framed Allison at thirteen, using such vicious means. She's the real devil, yet you still defend her. I hope all of you end up like this!"

Mia stormed off angrily.

The crowd on the rooftop dispersed, and a teacher took Yasmin back to the office. Soon, Yasmin's guardian arrived, but it wasn't Blair; it was Helena.

"Yasmin, are you okay? You scared me to death!" Helena's voice snapped Yasmin back to reality. When she saw who it was, her eyes widened, and she pushed Helena away. "Don't touch me!"
