Taking Back What My Sister Stole novel Chapter 278

chapter278

Yue sensed something off in their interaction. Offering a few polite words, she pulled Fangfei aside.

“You like him?”

Yue’s tone turned grave.

Fangfei admitted openly, “Yeah, I do.”

‘Absolutely not.”

Yue’s face hardened, her opposition immediate and fierce. Her reaction was startlingly intense.

Chu Fangfei found it strange. After a moment’s thought, she burst out laughing. “Mom, we’re just classmates. I had liked him, but he didn’t like me back.”

After having her confession rejected, Chu Fangfei deliberately distanced herself from Luciano.

Even seeing him again today made her heart race, yet she felt no urge to marry him at all costs.

Hearing this, Chu Yue felt somewhat relieved.

She instructed Chu Fangfei, “Your priority now is building up the perfume business properly. Hand it over to your brother when he

returns.”

Chu Fangfei’s expression fell. “I know.”

She’d always known her mother would leave everything to her brother.

Still, she couldn’t help feeling resentment.

She simply didn’t dare voice it, unwilling to argue with her mother.

The atmosphere here was tense.

Over there, things were perfectly harmonious.

Wesley asked Luciano for his opinion, “What do you think of Fangfei?”

Luciano lifted the corner of his mouth, “Just as I remember…”

He paused thoughtfully before adding, “Just as beautiful.”

Cecilia almost thought she’d misheard.

Was Luciano implying he was interested?

Wesley quietly sighed in relief–this was exactly the outcome he’d wanted.

He glanced at Cecilia, his tone mild. “You’ve stayed single for three years because of Gwendolyn. It’s rare for someone to catch your eye. If Fangfei is willing too, you two could try spending time together.”

Luciano raised his phone. “Then I’ll trouble you to get her contact information for me.”

Cecilia hesitated before finally saying, “Are you sure you want to get involved with Chu Fangfei?”

Considering the Wilkinson family’s situation and Chu Yue’s temperament, she advised, “Honestly, you could keep looking. There’s no rush to pursue Chu Fangfei.”

Luciano met her gaze and smiled. “I’ll have to marry eventually

anyway. Might as well choose someone I already know.”

“You only met her in university. You don’t know her that well.”

“Alright, Cilla. I think Mr. Wilkinson knows what he’s doing.”

Wesley urged.

He was delighted to see this development.

He instructed a passing servant, and soon Chu Fangfei arrived.

“Looking for me?”

She asked, trying hard not to let her gaze linger on Luciano.

Luciano opened his phone directly. “Old classmate, let’s exchange contacts.”

Chu Fangfei blinked, stunned for a few seconds before reacting. She pulled out her phone, and they added each other.

Luciano saved the contact. “Next time I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Chu Fangfei: “Oh, okay.

She felt dazed. It seemed plausible, yet she couldn’t quite believe it.

Luciano took a call and left.

Chu Fangfei couldn’t hold back, whispering to Wesley, “What did he mean by that?”

Wesley didn’t hide it from her, explaining the matchmaking arrangement.

Chu Fangfei’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You mean… he liked me from the matchmaking?”

Wesley patted her shoulder. “Fangfei, you’re not inferior to him. No need to accommodate him.”

He could tell Chu Fangfei liked Luciano.

Stunned by the news, Chu Fangfei walked away in a daze.

Cecilia felt uncomfortable, her voice unusually cold. “Congratulations. You got what you wanted.”

One sister married Johan, another sister matched with Luciano.

Really putting everything to good use.

Wesley was in a great mood. “That was his own choice. Nothing to do with me.”

Cecilia swallowed her retort, remembering Luciano’s words that morning.

“Can we go now?”

She asked.

“Let’s go.”

They had barely moved when commotion erupted at the entrance.

The crowd soon parted, revealing Larissa.

Her pristine white gown looked starkly simple as she approached.

“Cecilia.”

Larissa’s eyes were red–rimmed, fingers clutching her skirt desperately.

Begging Cecilia’s forgiveness felt like swallowing the bitterest

humiliation, yet she had no choice.

“Cecilia-”

Her voice trembled as she repeated the name.

Cecilia regarded her coldly. “What do you want?”

The sight of Larissa resurrected the memory of that deleted recording from Chu Yue.

Cecilia felt sick.

The next moment, Larissa knelt before everyone.

Tears streaked her pale, upturned face. “Cecilia, I’m apologizing for what I did. Can you forgive me?”

Cecilia flinched backward, startled.

Why kneel? An apology should suffice.

With all these witnesses, it looked like she was tormenting Larissa.

“Get up.”

Larissa’s tears flowed harder. “I’ll rise only if you forgive me.”

She’d thrown caution to the wind–anything beat prison.

Larissa was silently crying, “I just… I just want Cecilia to forgive me. Over the years, out of jealousy, I bullied her. I truly regret it now.”

“Cecilia, please forgive me. I’ll do anything if you forgive me. I could even serve you.”

She was throwing caution to the wind.
