Bonnie crossed her arm and regarded the middle-aged woman with nothing but sarcasm.
“If a dog bites me, would I have to bite back? This crazy dog might have rabies for all I know.” “W-Who are you calling a crazy dog?” The middle-aged woman’s face turned red from rage.
Bonnie responded nonchalantly, “Well. You answered me. So, I guess you’re it.”
“Why, you little…” The middle-aged woman knew she couldn’t win against Bonnie. So, she started to get the onlookers to verbally attack the latter instead.
“Look at me, everyone. I’m just a common housewife, and yet I have to suffer such humiliation! I can’t even keep my husband with me.
“I wouldn’t even use conditioners that are worth more than a hundred dollars. My intention was to save as much money as possible. That way, maybe my husband would love me more. Little did I know… I can’ believe that he…”
All of a sudden, tears started streaming down her cheeks.
As far as the others were concerned, this was the final straw. The onlookers started lobbing insults at Bonnie.
“Bonnie has got a messed up private life. Nothing is beneath her, I guess.”
“I have good reasons to believe that she’s constantly skipping classes for days because she went away to do some wicked stuff.”
“Of course she did. Why would so many people look for her today if she didn’t do it?”
Meanwhile, Trina had been recording the entire scene with her phone while he stood at the corner. She almost couldn’t hold herself back and burst into laughter. ‘Hahaha! This is just phenomenal. Is this my lucky day or something? How is it that I managed to capture not one, but two embarrassing parts of Bonnie’s life?
‘Now, I’ve gotten enough footage. I can share it in the family WhatsApp group and show everyone Bonnie’s true color.’
She uploaded the video to the family chat group. All it took was a couple of texts from Trina and the entire family went mad.
Normally, the family chat group was silent. However, it was flooded with texts in less than five seconds.
Gresham wrote, “Damn, that Bonnie. She could’ve spent her time more wisely. Instead, she chooses to dabble in immoral stuff!”
Grant wrote, “This is outrageous! There’s a lesson for the young people in our family here. Don’t do anything Bonnie would do. Otherwise, you’ll be kicked out of the family! Go ahead and become a beggar, for all we care!”
Harold’s text read, “It’s a good thing we made the wise decision and disowned this bastard much earlier. Otherwise, she would’ve brought shame to our family right here and now.”
Now that the old man mentioned disowning Bonnie, all the Shepards couldn’t help but think back to the fact that she was Kieran, the master painter.
‘Back then, all of us felt pity that we missed out on someone we could benefit from. However, it was fortunate that Bonnie turned down the offer to rejoin their family. ‘Otherwise, we’d be humiliated so greatly that we’d never recover from it.’
Vera sat on the couch while she watched the clip. She couldn’t help but sigh. “How is it that Bonnie became worse? Who could’ve kept her in line, I wonder?
“She has gone ahead and ruined her reputation at such a young age. What’s going to happen to her if she keeps going down this path?”
Gresham, who was sitting next to her, uttered coldly, “We’ve disowned her for a long time. She’s not one of the Shepards anymore. So, why do you care about her? So, what if she’s actually Kieran herself? She’s still the same piece of garbage. No one could’ve saved her!”
