Nevaeh stared at Niamh in suspicion. “What you mean is that you’re not Niamh?”
Niamh smiled, adopting a casual posture as she stood in her high heels in front of Nevaeh. “Miss Delgado, you’re free to take a good look. Do I really look that much like your dead sister?”
Niamh was a little taller than Nevaeh, and she was smiling as she looked down. Nevaeh looked up for a while before slowly composing herself. After a few seconds, she let out a cold laugh like nothing had happened.
“You do look quite alike, but you’re very different from Niamh.” Nevaeh’s attitude changed drastically as she looked at Niamh in contempt. “My sister was obedient and mindful. She wouldn’t have seduced an engaged man like what you’re doing now!”
Nevaeh made sure to shout that last sentence loudly, causing the workers and customers in the store to look at Niamh curiously.
“Vera Quinn, I’m here today to tell you this. If you care at all about your reputation, you should stop seducing my fiancé. I’ll never let anyone destroy my marriage!”
“Miss Delgado, you’re free to shut up if you don’t know how to speak properly. No one will think you’re mute if you don’t talk. Mr. Delgado and I have done nothing out of the ordinary. Even if you don’t trust me, surely you should trust your own fiancé?”
“You…”
“If my memory serves me right, even Miss Delgado was a mistress before this. Don’t you think the words that are coming out of your mouth are quite funny?”
Nevaeh was speechless as her face soured. She saw that the gazes surrounding them were quickly changing, so she adopted a look as if she was wronged.
“Miss Quinn, I don’t know where you heard those rumors from, but I’ve always been together with Kendrick. It’s my sister Niamh who fell in love with him and hatched a plot to sleep with him, forcing Kendrick to marry her. Now, Niamh is already dead, so I don’t enjoy bringing this up, but I won’t allow anyone to insult me like that!”
“You won’t allow anyone to insult you, but it’s fine if you insult me to my face? Miss Delgado, I heard that you’re the daughter of the Montgomery family. Does a noble lady like you think she’s above basic manners?”
Nevaeh was speechless, but she reacted quickly. She reddened her eyes as she gently said, “Miss Quinn, I didn’t mean it like that. I just love Kendrick so much, which is why I… I’m sorry, I’ve troubled you.”
Nevaeh said those words and walked away tearfully.
After a while, two other people walked into the shop. Niamh would never forget the evil faces of Rose and Jon Delgado.
She once believed that they really did treat her as their own daughter. However, it was all proven false in the end. She had treated them with such loyalty, but they still decided to beat her up, even almost costing her her life.
Niamh naturally knew they were here to question her under Nevaeh’s orders. The moment the two of them stepped inside, they were looking around frantically.
A young worker politely greeted them. “Do you two need any recommendations?”
Rose and Jon dismissively looked at the jewelry on display. “We want to buy a bracelet for our daughter, but we don’t know how to pick one out. Ask your supervisor to recommend something to us.
Their goal was obvious, and when Niamh heard their words, she casually turned around.
When the staff saw Niamh, he greeted her. “Miss Vera, the two customers here wish to pick out a bracelet for their daughter. Are you free to help them?”
Niamh smiled. “Of course.” She walked toward Rose and Jon after that.
When they looked at the source of the voice and saw Niamh walking over, they were instantly surprised.
They had done so many wicked things, so it was hard not to be frightened when looking at Niamh’s face.
“Niamh!”
“You… How are you still alive?!”
Rose and Jon said at the same time.
Niamh furrowed her eyebrows when she heard that and proceeded to put on a casual smile. “It seems like I really do look quite a bit like this woman named Niamh. Did the two of you come here because you were curious about how I look?”
“Look like? You’re definitely Niamh!” Rose pointed at Niamh accusingly. “I’ll never forget your face even if I die! Speak up, why are you not dead? What have you come back for? Are you trying to ruin Nevaeh and Kendrick’s relationship? How could you be so despicable?! So what if you’re alive? I’ll kill you anyway, you despicable b*tch!”
A slew of insults flew out of Rose’s mouth as she raised her hand up and aimed it right at Niamh’s face.
Smack!
Smack!
Not only did Rose’s slap not hurt Niamh at all, but she was currently holding onto her wrist tightly.
Niamh still vividly remembered all those slaps and beatings she had suffered before.
The moment she regained her sight, she had sworn to herself that she would never let anyone bully her again!
“You, let me go!” Rose shouted as she struggled in anger.
However, Niamh was quite strong. Thanks to the strength her hatred had given her, she was no longer a weakling anyone could pick on!
“Madam, please watch your tone! If you’re here as a customer, I’ll welcome you anytime. However, if you’re here to cause trouble, then get lost right now!” Niamh’s eyes were piercing as she put force into uttering every word, looking very imperious.
Rose stared for a few seconds, seemingly shocked into silence by Niamh’s imposing manner.
At that time, Jon started to get angry. He reached out to help Rose.
However, Niamh did not give him a chance. She immediately pushed Rose’s hand away. Rose did not manage to stabilize herself and her fat body went tumbling into Jon.
Jon had wanted to avoid the crash, but he was not quick enough. Rose caused him to slam into one of the counters as the two of them fell down, even causing the accessories on the counter to fall as well.
“Ouch!” Rose shouted in pain before shouting, “Niamh, you b*tch!”
Niamh sneered as her eyes lit up in anger.
Was she going to make a scene just because of that?
That was barely a scratch compared to everything the two of them had done to her!
Rose and Jon angrily stood up before turning around to prepare to curse at Niamh when a staff member next to them picked up the broken accessories. “Two of you, you’ve broken our accessories. According to the law, you need to pay for all of them!”
“Pay for what?! I only fell down because that btch pushed me!” Rose pointed at Niamh. “Niamh you btch, you don’t even know how to die properly! You dare push me? I’ll kill you right now!”
Rose was preparing to rush over, but Niamh stepped forward without even intending to retreat. She could not bother to put up with any more nonsense and took out her phone right away. “Officer, I’m here at First Crystal Street. There are two crazy people causing a scene here. One of them is saying that she wants to kill me. I’m scared, so please send someone here immediately to take care of them.”
“What? You dare make a police report?! You even said we’re crazy people?! Niamh, you seem to have forgotten how we taught you last time. How we lacerated your skin until you didn’t even dare to lift a finger! Look at you pretending right now! You…”
“So you treated Niamh Delgado like that in the past? I’m quite curious, who exactly are you? Did Niamh kill your entire family? Why are you still holding onto your grudge against her even though she’s dead?”
“Niamh, stop pretending! You’re obviously Niamh!”
Rose was going to make a move again, but security came just in time and stopped both Rose and Jon.
Not long after that, the police arrived as well.
Nevaeh had been sitting in a car outside waiting for the results, but she did not expect to see the police.
She did not know what happened, but she saw Rose and Jon being taken into a police car.
Only after an hour did Nevaeh finally see Rose and Jon walk out of the station.
She immediately brought Rose and Jon to the little villa they stayed in nowadays which was given to them as thanks for raising Nevaeh.
Rose cursed and swore as she recounted the events in great details to Nevaeh.
After understanding the matter, Nevaeh was deeply suspicious, but Jon shook his head.
“That’s definitely not Niamh. Niamh was never that bold!”
Rose was originally certain as well, but she was wavering since stepping out of the station. “Nevaeh, I think that woman just looks like her. She definitely isn’t Niamh. She’s been dead for three years and even her corpse would have rotted by now. Kendrick personally brought back her ashes, so how could she return to life?!”
Even if that was the case, Nevaeh was still full of doubt. “Could there really be two people who look so much alike on earth?”
“Maybe she somehow saw a picture of that woman and felt that she looked good, so she did plastic surgery to look like Niamh. No matter what, that Vera woman is definitely not Niamh! Your dad is right. How could that idiot ever be this imposing?! It’s impossible! That piece of trash was never able to fight us!”
Listening to Rose and Jon, Nevaeh’s doubts slowly disappeared. A smile returned to her face.
“That’s true. Niamh was just a useless idiot, so how could she be so imposing? Furthermore, she could never have gotten enough money to buy that shop on First Crystal Street. She even got the trending brand, Miss L.ady, into the shop.”
Rose could not help but complain. “What kind of rotten brand is that? Just a stinky breast pin cost me 300,000, and a diamond even fell off it!”
Nevaeh proudly showed off her bracelet and ring. “That’s not a rotten brand. It’s the most popular jewelry brand among women in these two years. The designs are impeccable and highly sought after. Mom, I’ll give this to you. That Patton woman insisted on giving it to me some time ago, and it’s worth 100,000!” she said that as she passed the bracelet to Rose.
Rose’s eyes lit up as she hurriedly received it. “What a filial daughter I have. Anyway, what’s going on with Kendrick? I feel like he’s been neglecting you recently. Your fake birthday is almost here, so why don’t you get Kendrick to propose to you on that day? There’ll be a lot of people there. If we pressure him together, he won’t have a good reason to refuse!”
Hearing that, Nevaeh smiled happily as a sinister glint flashed through her eyes.
“Kendrick is mine. It doesn’t matter if it’s Niamh or Vera. I’ll kill anyone who tries to steal my man!” Nevaeh said as a plan began to hatch in her mind.
This time, she would succeed!
After the two incidents in the morning, Niamh felt quite refreshed.
Remembering the shocked and frantic looks on Nevaeh and that couple’s faces, her determination to get her revenge strengthened.
She looked at the time and was about to leave when Kendrick’s car stopped in front of her shop.
Kendrick stepped down, his tall body a picture of elegance.
“Miss Vera, would you like to have lunch?” he said warmly as he walked toward her.
Niamh smiled coldly. “I don’t think so. Your precious fiancée might run over and accuse me of seducing you.”
As she said that, she turned around to leave.
Kendrick frowned as he quickly understood what Niamh meant.
He immediately chased after Niamh and saw her accidentally stepping on a rock. She was falling right in front of his eyes.
Kendrick did not know what came over him as his heart stopped. He immediately rushed over as he grabbed onto her tightly. “Niamh.”
