What?
After hearing what Kendrick said, Nevaeh was like a deflated balloon. Her knees went weak and she took a step back.
The threats and warnings she said to Vera earlier all appeared in her head immediately. ‘Let me tell you, Vera Quinn, this is how I disfigured Niamh back then. If you dare to cross me again, I’ll let you have a taste of that pain she felt!’
Nevaeh’s face turned even paler than before while her heart raced furiously.
She had indeed said those words just now.
She was so infuriated by Vera, so her true self came out and she revealed her past misdeeds.
Kendrick looked at the changes in Nevaeh’s eyes and expression. He said in a disappointed tone, “You told me that it was your father Sean who hired someone to slash Niamh’s face. I guess that’s not the truth. You’re the one who did that.”
“N-No, that’s not it…” Niamh grabbed Kendrick’s arm. She shook her head to deny everything. Her eyes were filled with tears at this moment. “I didn’t hurt Niamh. I really didn’t…
“I’m terrified of blood. Why would I hurt Niamh with a knife? Niamh was the one who harmed Jack and that’s why my dad hired someone to teach her a lesson out of anger. This has nothing to do with me…
“Kendrick, you have to believe me. You have to believe Niamh…”
Kendrick’s brutal intentions were suppressed after she mentioned Niamh. He recalled the relationship he had with her back then.
When Nevaeh saw that Kendrick’s anger had dissipated, she leaned against him aggrievedly. “Kendrick, you have to believe me. I was forced to do so. I don’t have a reason to do those immoral things. I lost my cool just now all because of Vera. I was only trying to scare her. I would never hurt her, Kendrick…”
She tried to gain Kendrick’s pity, but Kendrick only pushed her hand away coldly. His charming eyes were piercing and icy now.
“You’re not the girl I knew back then anymore. I’m so disappointed in you.”
His voice was deep and there was a fit of intense anger in it. After he said that, he turned around and left.
Niamh’s body turned cold. She ran over and grabbed Kendrick, saying, “Kendrick, don’t go! You can’t leave me like this! Why are you blaming me? What did I do? I’m only scared to lose you because I love you so much! You don’t even want to look at me now because of that Vera Quinn!
“My face is now ruined because of you. I’ll even have a hideous scar from now on. Are you going to abandon me because of this? Do you know how important a woman’s face is?”
“Heh.” Kendrick chuckled lowly after he heard Nevaeh’s complaints when she was in the midst of her emotional breakdown. “So you know how important a woman’s face is as well?”
“…”
“Did you ever think that Niamh would be in pain and also fear disfigurement when you slashed her face?”
“…”
Nevaeh’s expression froze as she speechlessly looked at the man who was questioning her.
Niamh.
He kept on calling her Niamh, but he had not called her Nevaeh lovingly in so long.
That b*tch Niamh was indeed occupying his heart as if her spirit was still alive.
That b*tch!
When Nevaeh was contemplating while being stuck in a daze, she suddenly felt that her hands were empty.
Kendrick had removed himself from her without hesitation. He was not even looking at her anymore.
Rose had been eavesdropping outside the door. At this moment, the door opened. When she saw Kendrick appear with a terrifying aura around him, she lowered her head and did not dare to say anything. She could only watch on as Kendrick left before going back into the ward.
“Nevaeh,” she called out to Nevaeh anxiously.
Nevaeh gritted her teeth before pushing everything off the table and cabinet.
“Niamh, you b*tch! You’re dead but your damn influence still lingers on!
“One Niamh wasn’t enough, and now, there’s another Vera Quinn! Btches! They’re all btches!”
Her eyes were red as she screeched at the air around her.
Rose closed the door of the room quickly. She was worried that people might see Nevaeh’s true face.
Rose had heard Kendrick and Nevaeh’s conversation earlier, but she did not expect it to get exposed so quickly.
She comforted Nevaeh, saying, “Nevaeh, you can’t admit defeat now. You have to get the position of Mrs. Waldburg! Not only is it a symbol of status, but it’ll also give you limitless wealth!”
Rose’s eyes were filled with greed. There was a hint of savageness in her eyes. “I’ll take care of that Vera Quinn for you.”
After venting for a while, Nevaeh touched her wounded face while she gritted her teeth.
“Of course, I won’t admit defeat so easily! I’ll kill anyone who dares to steal my man away from me!”
Her eyes were filled with venom. Sinister ruses were starting to appear behind her eyes.
“Hmph, Vera Quinn, I’ll let my mother teach you a lesson. But it’s not you, Mom. It’s Eloise!”
…
Kendrick drove away from the hospital and arrived at a location somewhere.
During his drive here, he felt like a puppet with no senses nor thoughts. He drove apathetically while his brain was only filled with what Nevaeh said just now.
She was the one who ruined Niamh’s face.
Heh.
Kendrick was expressionless, but he was smiling sarcastically deep down.
