Chapter 136

When Evadne got back to her private villa, it was already the crack of dawn.

Nydia had been worried sick about her sister, staying up all night. Her eyes were red and swollen, and it looked miserable.

“Nydia, don’t beat yourself up. I’m fine. Don’t you have cla**es tomorrow morning? Get some sleep.” Evadne sat next to Nydia, giving her a hug.

“Evadne, am I useless? You’ve always protected me when we were little, but now that I’m grown up, I can’t do anything.” Nydia pouted, her eyes brimming with tears.

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about?” Evadne gently knocked on her head. “Because of you and Myra, our home is filled with harmony. You’re the baby sister that we all adore. You are like our own little mascot. If you really want to do something for me, then go and chase your dreams. When you make it big in the entertainment industry. I’m going to have you endorse my products. That way, I can save some money. Sounds good, right?”

“Evadne, I believe in myself. I’ll definitely make it!” Nydia wiped her tears, nodding fervently.

After a quick wash, Nydia fell asleep almost instantly as soon as she hit the pillow.

Evadne tucked her in before leaving the room.

In the study. Jason was already waiting for her.

“Tonight, Acacia was sent to the hospital for some reason. Have you found out?” Evadne’s eyes turned cold as she asked, sitting on the sofa.

“We found out. Acacia attempted suicide. She slit her wrists but was saved in time. She’s out of danger now.” Jason paused, a glint of coldness in his eyes, “and Thaddeus has been by her side the whole time.”

“Well that’s a no–brainer. Acacia almost killed herself for him. Even if he’s a corpse, he’d have to stick by Acacia’s bedside.” Evadne said carelessly, not bothered at all.

“Ms. Evadne, what is your take on this Acacia situation?”
