Taking Back What My Sister Stole novel Chapter 302

Chapter302

“I told you, Corrine took her own life. That had nothing to do with me.”

“Larissa, karma will catch up. Don’t look so smug.”

Cecilia gave a cold laugh. “Whether she jumped or you pushed her–you know the truth.”

“Oh, I certainly know the truth.”

Larissa chuckled lightly. “I know you’re recording this. Don’t think you can trick me into confessing.”

Without evidence, denial would make it seem like an accident.

Cecilia tightened her grip on the phone in her pocket. She really was recording.

Larissa was too alert.

“Cecilia, you really are a bad omen. Look, your parents died, Priscilla died, grandma died.

Now Corrine is dead too. They all died because of you.”

Larissa whispered, “Everyone around you seems to come to a bad end. Oh, and Johan, Johan almost lost his life too.”

She looked at Cecilia’s belly. “Now the only ones around you are that child called Gwendolyn and the one in your belly. I think with your bad omen constitution, they’ll end up dead sooner or later.”

Cecilia’s face turned pale, her heart aching as if torn apart.

But she held it in.

“Larissa, you said all that just to upset me, didn’t you?”

Cecilia knew Larissa’s intention.

She wouldn’t fall for it.

“If I’m a bad omen, then are you a jinx?

The people you love and the people who love you, it seems none of them love you now.”

Larissa’s smug expression vanished. That’s right, now the person in Johan and Wesley’s hearts had become Cecilia.

Even Johan had made a will early on, leaving all his property to Cecilia.

Every time she thought of this, she felt particularly stifled,

After all, she had gone to great lengths to marry Johan, but got nothing.

“Larissa, you’re so pitiful.”

Cecilia sneered and went to the car behind.

Larissa was left alone, her face darkening.

Cecilia.

Everyone surrounded Cecilia.

Forget Johan and Wesley, even Yue Chu urged her to please Cecilia. Feifei Chu wanted Cecilia back managing the perfume R&D.

All this should have been hers.

It should have been Larissa’s.

Cecilia stole everything.

Bitch.

Cecilia leaned back in her chair. Weariness washed over her. She closed her eyes, propping her head as she drifted into sleep.

When she woke, she was already in her room at Chaston Villa.

Dim light brought fleeting stillness.

Cecilia sat up, rubbing her forehead.

She’d slept, yet felt even more tired.

Glancing at the clock, she saw it was already ten in the morning.

The door creaked open, and Gwendolyn’s little face peeked in. Spotting Cecilia awake, she bounded inside happily.

“Mommy.”

She held up a toy. “I finished the blocks.”

With a shy smile, she added, “Wesley helped me.”

Cecilia ruffled her hair: “Did you thank Wesley?”

Grown–up troubles shouldn’t touch the child.

Gwendolyn nodded. “I said thank you.”

“Pack your favorite toys now,” Cecilia said gently. “We’re going home

soon.”

Gwendolyn cheered, “Yay! Going home!”

After a joyful skip, she asked, “Is Wesley coming with us?”

In her heart, Wesley was already family.

Wherever they went, he belonged.

Cecilia shook her head with a soft smile. “Wesley has his own work. If you miss him later, we can visit. Okay?”

Gwendolyn looked a little down but agreed.

She hopped back to her room to pack.

After Cecilia finished freshening up, she found Wesley waiting in the

room.

He stood by the window, turned at the sound, and looked at her.

“Gwendolyn said you’re leaving?”

Cecilia had long found peace within.

After all, her priorities now were work and finding Corrine.
