Chapter 5
“Dad, I’ll prove to you that I wasn’t lying” Flora, expressionless, took Carina’s phone and connected it to the computer with a USB cable. A flicker of contempt and disgust passed through Carina’s eyes. Flora was just putting on a show. She was a nobody. What could she possibly achieve?
Flora’s slender, pale fingers flew across the keyboard, leaving only afterimages as the computer screen flashed with rows of code.
Raul and Henrik were stunned, while a sense of foreboding suddenly mose in Carina’s heart. She pressed down on Flora’s hand on the keyboard. Her instincts told her that she had to stop Floral
Carina actually felt a sense of fear towards Flora, feeling ridiculous yet unable to control the panic within her. “Flora, stop this nonsense. You’re blaming everything on me. I won’t hold it against you. Unele Raul isn’t in good health and can’t handle this stress.”
Flora’s gaze slowly moved from the hand pressing on hers to Carina’s face, a playful and mocking light in her eyes. “Are you scared?”
“Flora, what’s gotten into you today!”
Carina’s face turned shades of green and white. How could she be afraid of this loser? But today, Flora seemed like a completely different person, truly unsettling.
Flora used to be so obedient, but today…
Flora
just looked at her for a while. Her direct gaze made Carina feel uneasy. Then Flora withdrew her gaze with utter calmness. Her fingers topped swiftly on the keyboard again.
Watching Flora’s serious face, Raul and Henrik felt a bit excited, even though.Flora might just be causing a scene.
Turned out Flora had a talent. She could be steered towards computer science!
Slowly, many chat records appeared on the screen, with more popping up. Carina’s eyes widened in disbelief, and
nd her panic increased.
Under her panicked gaze, Flora pressed the last key forcefully. “Done”
The screen had flickered too violently just before, making the content unclear, but now, the chat records were fixed on the screen, with several messages enlarged.
They were messages from Carina to Flora
Carina told Flora if she didn’t want to be with Connor, there was a way out. Flora could have him severely injured, better yet, bedridden forever. That way, she wouldn’t be tied down to him. Carina also suggested most of the things Flora did to hurt Connor
After reading all the chat records, Raul felt a chill down his spine. Carina had always seemed gentle and quiet in front of others, but behind the scenes, she was horrifying. It was like harboring a snake that might bite you at any moment.
Carina had no way to argue with irrefutable evidence in front of her. Tears welled up in her eyes as she knelt on the ground
ing with emotion, she begged, “Uncle Raul, I’m sorry, II was worried about Flora. I know she doesn’t like Connor, so I gave her that advice… I know what I did was wrong, but Flora is my cousin. I just want her to be happy, even if all the consequences fall on me.”
She was smart, knowing that arguing was futile, so she chose to downplay the situation and take on the title of a caring sister.
“Is that so? For my sake?” Flora sneered mockingly “Dad, you clearly told me you didn’t want me to be with Aaron, but Carina always deliberately brings up Aaron in front of me and even tries to stir up trouble between you, Henrik, and me!”
The more Flora spoke, the deeper the hatred grew Memories of her past life flooded back, and her voice was filled with sorrow.
Her fingers tapped on the keyboard, bringing up a large batch of chat records and phone recordings.
Most of them were about Aaron. Every time Flora lost interest in Aaron, Carina would deliberately mention his recent activities in front of Flora, even intentionally creating opportunities for them to be alone.
Besides, there were many conversations about Raul and Henrik.
Carina stirred up trouble, speaking ill of therd behind their backs, exacerbating conflicts between Flora and her family during times of disagreement, which caused Flora’s relationship with Raul and Henrik to deteriorate further.
Raul could forgive Carina at first, but now, she’s just totally unbearable.
