Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

They knew they shouldn’t be laughing about it, but they really couldn’t help themselves.

A scowl clouded Yasmin’s face as she heard the laughter surrounding her. After that, she immediately pulled a small mirror out of her pocket, and noticed her teeth–or rather, her missing teeth.

There was no way she could show up at Dominic’s audition in this state!

Yasmin couldn’t bear her current disheveled and comical appearance. She was furious to the point of nearly passing out. Yet, when she noticed Yvette standing idly by, watching the scene unfold, her gaze was filled with malice and spite.

She wasn’t going to let that bitch escape unscathed for her humiliation!

After glancing around, Yasmin immediately burst into tears, feigning a pitiful demeanor. Unfortunately, with her two front teeth missing, her crying was more comical than heartbreaking. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Why did you trip me on purpose, Yvie? You’ve ruined my appearance.”

Yvette regarded her from above, her voice indifferent as she said, “What evidence do you have to suggest that I tripped you?”

Yasmin’s carefully crafted accusations were cut short by Yvette’s retort, and her face immediately became stiff.

She indeed had no evidence to back up her accusation. She recalled feeling a forceful shove on her back, resulting in her collision with Nora, but she couldn’t prove who had pushed her.

“Are you actually accusing me of something with no evidence to back it up?” Yvette’s voice was laced with a hint of danger, despite her casual

tone.

Everyone present couldn’t help but voice their agreement as well.

“She’s accusing Yvette of pushing her without any evidence! Isn’t that a clear case of slander?”

“You’re right! She’s clearly trying to pin the blame on Yvette. They’re supposed to be family, right? Who does that to their own family?”

As she listened to these questioning volces, Yasmin’s face immediately fell. She couldn’t let the kind and gentle persona she had built up for so long at Jubilife University be ruined just like that.

“Y–you’ve got it all wrong, Yvie. I wasn’t trying to say it was your fault.”

Yvette shot her a languid look, her nonchalant voice laced with sarcasm as she said, “You’re whistling as you speak. It’d be better if you kept your mouth shut.”

There was truly no crueler act than to add insult to injury. Everyone around couldn’t help but burst into laughter again.

At that moment, Yasmin was genuinely angered to the point of tears. She wanted nothing more than to escape this humiliating situation. Thus, she scrambled up from the ground, covered her mouth, and fled the scene.

Meanwhile, Nora was also overwhelmed with embarrassment. She covered her head where Yasmin’s teeth had sunk in, and shouted angrily,” Break it up! Stop crowding around!”

Before long, everyone dispersed, and only Nora and Yvette remained.

With her gaze filled with malice, Nora glared at Yvette and said, “You’re not fooling anyone, Yvette. I know damn well that you’re the one whe pushed us! Mark my words, Yvette. You’ll pay dearly for it!”

Yvette responded indifferently, “Oh I’ll be waiting for you, then.”
