Out Of The Shadows Tilda’s Brilliant Second Life novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Two Stalkers

To Howard, messing with Rebecca was the same as messing with him.

There was no way he could take that insult lying down!

“Howard, don’t!”

Wade moved quickly to block Howard.

Howard stared at Wade in disbelief. “Wade, why are you stopping me? You’re just going to let her keep yelling like that?”

“Howard, don’t do anything rash…”

Wade bit his lip, giving Howard a pleading look, silently begging him to cool it.

He was genuinely scared that, with Howard’s temper and everything Tilda had done to the Jensons lately, Howard would lose control and actually hit her.

Seeing Wade like this, Howard’s anger slowly faded. It was like someone doused him with a bucket of cold

water.

Wade, could it be that you …

“Why are you stopping him? Wade, are you afraid Howard will actually hit me and end up in jail?

“At least you’ve got some brains. You know Andy and I are tight–if Howard tried to lay a hand on me, he’d lose his wrestling world champ title and get stuck with an ex–con label instead!”

Tilda sat where she was, arms crossed, smirking.

“I … I didn’t mean it like that … Tilda…

Wade looked stunned.

Honestly, he hadn’t really thought it through just now.

He just didn’t want Howard to hit Tilda.

But now, he didn’t think Tilda would even believe him–not after everything he had done.

In Tilda’s eyes, she had probably labeled him, her so–called brother, as a useless and shameless liar.

“Tilda, don’t talk like that! Wade is just trying to protect you!”

Howard was stung by Tilda’s sarcasm and spoke up in Wade’s defense, clenching his jaw.

Wade, really, what’s so great about Tilda that you’d feel guilty or want to protect her?

It’s all Tilda’s fault. If she hadn’t been so petty, if she hadn’t resented Kyla, cut off the Jensons, and even turned on them with lawsuits, none of this mess would have happened.

Chapter 118 Two Stalkers

Even if Wade lied, it was for the Jensons. Everything started with Tilda.

No one has any right to blame Wade.

Not even Tilda!

“What’s going on here?”

The security guard heard Tilda calling for help and rushed over.

A crowd had started to gather as well.

Tilda spoke up right away. “Help! These two are stalking me and threatening me! Please, call the police!”

“Uh… well… ”

The guard looked at Wade and Howard. Even though he didn’t know who they were, they didn’t look like stalkers at all, judging from their clothes, their faces, and their whole vibe …

“She’s my sister. This is a family dispute!”

Howard was totally floored by how easily Tilda could lie and keep a straight face. It was unbelievable!

No wonder Dominic had warned him that Tilda was a master manipulator and told him to be careful with her.

If it had been Kyla, she never would have done something this shameful.

The more Howard dealt with Tilda, the more he realized how pure and good Kyla really was… and how much Tilda fell short.

And yet, Tilda was his real sister by blood. Kyla wasn’t! It was almost like some cruel joke from the universe.

“A family dispute?”

The guard looked at Howard and Tilda again.

Tilda looked kind of familiar to him.

“Aren’t you guys…

the Jensons?”

Someone in the crowd recognized Tilda.

“I’m not a Jenson. I have nothing to do with them, so don’t say that. I’ve already cut all ties with the Jensons.”

“These two are just strangers who keep stalking me!”

Tilda denied it flat–out, three times in a row.

Her gaze was icy.

Any connection to the Jensons made her feel sick these days–just the thought was enough to make her want to puke.

Chapter 118 Two Stalkers

The security guard hesitated.

No matter how he looked at it, this was just a family drama.

There was nothing he could really do.

“Tilda, stop making a scene. If you delete the video of Rebecca, we’ll leave right now!”

“You’re just keeping that video so you can ruin Rebecca, aren’t you?”

If it hadn’t been for Rebecca, Howard wouldn’t have bothered with Tilda at all.

Finished

Just seeing Tilda made his blood boil, especially with how sharp–tongued she was–she always knew just how to push his buttons.

It took everything in Howard not to lose it and strangle her right then and there.

“Ruin Rebecca?”

“You sure sound close, judging by the way you’re standing up for her.”

Tilda narrowed her eyes, something dangerous glinting in them.

“So, in your eyes, Howard, even someone not related to you by blood is a little sister worth protecting …

Her tone was flat, but there was a clear self–mocking edge to it.

A thick self–mocking edge, actually.

Wow, Tilda. Looks like you had been a failure in your past life.

Not only were you no match for Kyla, you couldn’t even measure up to an outsider like Rebecca.

You should have realized this a long time ago.

Instead, you ruined your life, chasing after some family affection that was basically non–existent. You even got yourself killed for that!
