She’s Back, and Hell’s Coming with Her novel Chapter 61

If she claimed, just like Celine did, that the injury was her own doing—what would happen then?

Of course, no one would believe her.

They’d probably accuse her of lying through her teeth.

Celine had calculated this perfectly.

If Desmond and Sommer didn’t believe her, then Sabrina would be branded—once and for all—as the heartless daughter who tried to hurt her own sister and struck her mother.

But if they did believe her, it would only enhance Celine’s reputation. After all, here was a girl sobbing through her pain, still desperately protecting her big sister. Who wouldn’t love a daughter like that?

In her previous life, Celine had mastered this very trick, slowly pushing Sabrina to complete isolation, until everyone turned their backs on her.

Sabrina spread her hands. “She stabbed herself with the scissors.”

Desmond and Sommer nearly exploded at Sabrina’s nonchalant, almost indifferent attitude.

A glimmer of triumph flashed in Celine’s eyes. She immediately stepped in front of them, spreading her arms as if shielding Sabrina from their anger.

“Dad, Mom—Sabrina’s telling the truth. Why won’t you believe her? I hurt myself, I would never lie to you…”

As she spoke, her head drooped lower and lower.

Tears spilled down her cheeks.

Her arms fell limp at her sides.

She choked out, “Please, stop blaming Sabrina. It’s all my fault. Can you just… leave, please?”

The first part sounded so normal that even Sabrina almost thought Celine was finally admitting defeat.

But then she heard the last line.

And she laughed.

A leopard never changes its spots.

See? With just one sentence, Celine managed to drag her straight back into the storm.

That was the brilliance of a fake angel.

Desmond’s voice was icy. “Sabrina, I’m so disappointed in you. Apologize to your sister. Now.”

Sommer was already considering sending her right back to the countryside.
