Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1098 Pretend to Be Weak

In just a few moments, she had concocted a plan. Since the police have no evidence yet, I can deny everything they say. Plus, I can stay home and act miserable in front of Mom. Things will soon die down. Then, after the love bug is ready, Colton will be mine, and Nicole won't be a threat to me anymore!

As Evelyn thought about it, she immediately applied more powder to her face, making it paler. Seeing that her face had lost its glow, Evelyn left the room in satisfaction.

When she saw Siobhan and Rita in the living room, she coughed to attract their attention. "Mom, Grandma, you guys are back." She smiled weakly.

Initially, Rita and Siobhan wanted to ignore Evelyn when they heard her voice. Yet, they eventually turned their heads around. When they saw her pale face, they were shocked.


Siobhan was slightly worried when she saw Evelyn. A mixture of emotions flashed in her eyes as she asked, "What happened?" Although her tone was cold, Evelyn was still the daughter she raised for about twenty years. Thus, she couldn't help but want to care for her.


Evelyn was slightly relieved when she heard the concern in Siobhan's tone. I knew that Mom still cares for me, she thought. Then, she pretended to be weaker than she was and staggered as she walked down the stairs. "It's nothing. I brought this upon myself." She smiled weakly at Siobhan.

When Rita saw Evelyn, she knew that the latter was faking it. However, she didn't expose her. Rita had seen all kinds of people in the business world and was used to all sorts of tricks. Thus, how could she not see through Evelyn's lies? To put it bluntly, only Siobhan would fall for this foolish trick.

As expected, Siobhan was distressed when she saw how weak Evelyn was.
