Chapter 936: The Highest Level of Being a Pretentious Woman
A threatening and gloomy expression appeared on Avrora’s face. Beneath the bright light, it seemed as if there was a coat of white flour on her face which made her look terrifying like an actual pale-faced ghost.
Wen Xinya swirled the gla.s.s of red-colored fruit juice which looked like beautiful gemstones beneath the strong beam. “Miss Avrora, you won’t be able to save yourself today.”
Pangs of panic engulfed Avrora, but she soon suppressed her emotions and barked. “Don’t spout any nonsense. My grandpa stamped that doc.u.ment himself.”
She pretended to be composed.
Wen Xinya snorted with laughter and gibed. “Simple. I’ll just ask Duke Moville if he was the one who stamped it on himself.”
She’s already on the verge of death and yet, she still thinks she can fool me.
Avrora was at a complete loss for words.
Supporting her arm on the armrest while c.o.c.king her head sideways to put on her earring, Wen Xinya said, “Back in China, there were plenty of women who would frequently try to provoke me because of how much they adore Rex. They even try to threaten me and sow discord between me and Rex.”
Of course, she was just making it up. As a man who respected himself, Si Yiyan had never been in promiscuous relations.h.i.+ps and she had never encountered such things before. However… she was provoked by Avrora’s words and decided to take revenge!
There was a deeper meaning to her words, and it was as if she was trying to say that Avrora was just like those women who tried to come in between her and Si Yiyan. A sullen expression formed on Avrora’s face.
Sulking, Wen Xinya said, “Whenever that happens, I always wish I could just give those shameless b.i.t.c.hes a few hard slaps. In China, s.n.a.t.c.hing the boyfriends and husbands of other women warrants harsh criticism and castigation. You will be looked down upon and labeled as a shameless and brazen hussy.”
Wen Xinya gritted her teeth angrily while speaking as if she had really encountered such incidents. However, she kept her eyes glued on Avrora.
Avrora turned pale and thought to herself, This yellow-skinned chicken is obviously just chastising me. If I were to get agitated, that would mean that I’m admitting to it.
She turned red, feeling frustrated about the dilemma that she was stuck in.
Staring at Avrora with a look of sympathy, Wen Xinya said, “I know you adore Rex and I can understand your intentions for saying those words to me just now. However… Rex and I are truly in love with each other, and we have gone through thick and thin in order to be together. So, I hope that I can have your blessings, Miss Avrora.”
Hypocrisy was the most disgusting level of being pretentious. Wen Xinya was certain that the simple-minded Europeans definitely would not understand pretentiousness.
As expected, Avrora flew into a rage after hearing her words. However, there was nothing she could do. With anger written all over her face, she screeched. “Bella, seems like you’re asking for a hard time!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she pressed a gun against the back of Wen Xinya’s head while staring at her with a cold and derisive expression.
A menacing look formed in Wen Xinya’s eyes and she quipped. “Miss Avrora, what do you mean? Aren’t you willing to give me and Rex your blessings? Are you trying to break us up?”
Avrora burst into maniacal laughter and retorted smugly. “It’s exactly what you’re thinking, Miss Bella. So don’t bother being pretentious.”
Does she think that I won’t dare to do anything to her just because she has Rex to back her up? Hmph! How naive. She’s just a woman. Does she really think Rex will take her seriously? Rex wouldn’t fall out with Grandpa just because of her. Even if Rex is unhappy about her death, the matter will blow over once Grandpa offers him something in exchange.
Wen Xinya glared at Avrora and said, “Miss Avrora, how could you treat me like this?”
Avrora turned pale in exasperation and ordered in a high-pitched voice. “Miss Bella, stop pretending. You must hand the doc.u.ment over today.”
Wen Xinya’s face also grew sullen and she retorted. “Miss Avrora, what do you plan to do to me if I don’t hand the doc.u.ment over? Are you going to hurt me or kill me? Aren’t you afraid that you’ll make Rex displeased with Duke Moville?”
Avrora indeed has some scheming tricks up her sleeve.
As pale as a ghost, Avrora behaved like a fl.u.s.tered child. “Miss Bella, your trap has really landed me in hot soup! What should I do?” She then flaunted her teeth and glowed like a vibrant flower. “So, even if I die, I must drag you down with me.”
Wen Xinya could not help but be amazed by Avrora. She was indeed a vibrant, carnivorous flower. She was beautiful, vicious, menacing and prideful. She also possessed the confidence of a true aristocrat. She showed her prowess and a.s.serted her dominance as a wealthy heiress. First, she a.n.a.lyzed the pros and cons and made Wen Xinya worried, before using Si Yiyan to attack her vulnerable spot. Lastly, she resorted to a physical threat.
She had never considered raising the white flag.
Smiling vibrantly, Avrora fiddled with her fingernails before saying, “Miss Bella, I’m sure you know that I don’t want to hurt you. So… how’s the consideration going? Do you want to hand the doc.u.ment over?”
She was confident of getting her hands on it. After all, no one would put their life at risk.
Wen Xinya waved and pretended to look apologetic. “Miss Avrora, you’ve got great tricks. However, I’m sorry to say that I won’t be handing it over.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Avrora pressed the gun even more tightly against her head in a bid to give her a warning.
Wen Xinya’s body stiffened.
Still grinning coldly, Avrora gibed. “Miss Bella, it seems you won’t be afraid until you face your death.”
Shaking her head, Wen Xinya said, “Miss Avrora, don’t be mistaken. It’s not that I’m not willing to hand the doc.u.ment over, but rather, it’s not with me at all!”
She had no idea how things were going on on Gu Yuehan and Liu Yanhua’s side. Avrora was truly vicious.
In fact, she was much harder to deal with than Xia Ruya, who would succ.u.mb so long as she found out her weakness. However, the deadly beauty Avrora was tougher.
Avrora finally realized that Liu Yanhua had gone missing. At this moment, she knew that she would never get the doc.u.ment. She smiled menacingly and said, “Miss Bella, you’re really something. You managed to s.n.a.t.c.h the stakes away before anyone could react and you handed them to your bodyguard…” She then continued in an intimidating tone, “Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing that?”
The clear and crisp sound of the gun barrel rang in her ears.
Wen Xinya immediately lost her rationality. She closed her eyes and thought to herself, Si Yiyan, I hope we will meet again in the next lifetime!
