The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 153

Rebecca stormed in, with Yvette trailing behind, holding her right hand and looking aggrieved. Even though there were plenty of staff backstage, Rebecca had no intention of controlling her temper. Her eyes blazed with fury, like a vengeful spirit, eager to consume Shakira entirely.

"To boost your image, you broke Yvette's hand. Get out with me. I want everyone to see how evil you really are. Rebecca shouted angrily, her long, sharp nails slashing through the air menacingly toward Shakira. The force behind them seemed enough to draw blood if she wasn't careful.

Shakira narrowed her eyes and replied coldly, "Mrs. Nelson, are you trying to make a fool of yourself in front of everyone?"

Rebecca was speechless. Her hand stopped in mid-air as she met Shakira's cold and merciless eyes. She recalled their previous encounter when she had been overpowered without even a chance to fight back.

Rebecca angrily dropped her hand and pointed it at Shakira's nose. Seeing Shakira's arrogant stance and ignoring her completely, Rebecca felt a deep hatred but was helpless to change it.

Shakira smirked, with her gaze shifting to Yvette, who was hiding behind Rebecca, and let out a silent sneer. "Did Yvette tell you that I broke her hand?" Shakira asked with a casual tone that was enough to make Yvette feel like a frightened bird.

Yvette quickly pulled down Rebecca's hand, whispering almost desperately. "Mom, my injury has nothing TO do with Shakira. Let's go home"

Rebecca angrily shook off her hand. She had faced great humiliation, and now Yvette was even standing up for Shakira. Rebecca was furious.

Her disappointment in Yvette was clear, and her gaze was filled with blame and frustration. "How are you going to defend her! If she hadn't locked you, you wouldn't have gotten hurt?"

If you had performed, all the cheers and applause would have been for you. The photos with the seniors would have be of our family. Dad and I wouldn't be the laughingstock, continued Rebecca.

Hearing these words, Shakira found Rebecca's way of thinking truly fascinating. No wonder Yvette was so loved by her; birds of a feather flocked together.

As Rebecca's sharp, loud voice faded, a sneering laugh came from outside the door. It wasn't cold or indifferent, just very mocking, and it was startling in the quiet room.

Rebecca turned her head viciously and snapped. "Who dares to laugh!"

At some point, Walter appeared outside the door, with his overly confident, handsome face smirking. "Mrs. Nelson, do you even want to scold me?"

Rebecca's expression suddenly changed.
