Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 233 Speak Against Your Conscience

Rayna released a sigh of relief when she didn’t see any news that tarnished her name and returned to work.

The other person who saw the news was Stephanie, who was still in the hospital.

The acid splash had left visible burn marks on the left side of her face and her arm, which tremendously scarred her psyche.

When the doctor told her no skin grafting technology could hide her scars completely, she broke down.

She had prepared the acid as a contingency. Back then, when she removed the cap of the bottle of acid after being infuriated by Rayna’s words, she didn’t expect Rayna to push the bottle toward her.

She had thought that she, as a victim, could accuse Rayna and have her thrown into prison forever. However, to her surprise, Rayna recorded their conversation.

Everyone now believed she had wanted to use the acid on Rayna. Essentially, she was hoisted by her own petard.

Stephanie smashed any objects with reflective properties in the room and cried for the whole night.

When she saw Theodore arrive in her ward the next morning, she pounced on him and wailed, “My face is ruined, Teddy! What do I do?”

With a firm attitude and a cold expression, Theodore pushed her away. “It’s your fault for attacking her.”

“She won’t let you go, so I asked her to leave,” Stephanie sobbed and pretended to be weak. “I was a little harsh with my words, but she spoke impolitely to me too. Then I got angry…” She grabbed Theodore’s shirt. “I did this because I like you, Teddy! Now that my face is ruined, how am I going to meet other people in the future?”

“If you hadn’t taken out that bottle of acid, you wouldn’t have turned out like this.” The look in his eyes was grim. “I treat you politely solely because of our family’s relationship.”

“Teddy…”

Gripping her wrist, Theodore warned, “I hope this incident will teach you an unforgettable lesson. You know who’s protecting her, and I don’t think you’re stupid enough to want to see your family fall.”
