The Heiress’ Return & Revenge 55% Chapter 10 Don’t Play The Victim Card On Me Again Witnessing Simone finally confronting her, Jodie couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction. “Simone is becoming more and more irritable. This is great!” she thought to herself. Apologizing with a hurt expression, she said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize you would mind the living conditions here. I assumed you would follow the production team’s arrangements and stay with us.” In doing so, she implied that Simone couldn’t handle hardship and disliked the poor living conditions.

Aaron also looked at Simone with a frown and said, “If you don’t want to stay here, you don’t have to. There’s no need to speak to Jo like this.” “Simone is so jealous; she can’t stand the sight of Jo and keeps picking on her regardless of the situation,” he thought to himself. He continued, “The production team mentioned that we would be filming in the countryside. If you find the conditions here unsatisfactory, you shouldn’t have come.” “She even deliberately fought with our family for this spot. What’s the point of it, anyway?” he wondered. Simone raised an eyebrow and told Jodie, “When did I say I disliked these living conditions and refused to follow the production team’s arrangements?” Then, she turned to Aaron with a cold expression and said, “I was simply expressing my opinion, telling your sister not to speak for me. Is that wrong? If you want to defend your sister, that’s your business, but please don’t take sides without reason and deliberately twist my words.

isn’t law here, and this isn’t your home either. Not everyone has to cater to you and your your sister.” Zac let out a whistle, adding fuel to the fire. “Well said! No one here is obligated to cater to you guys.” Aaron glared at him for provoking the situation. He then turned to Simone in displeasure and asked, “So, what did you mean?” Simone pointed to the bed in the room. “This bed consists only of wooden boards and has no mattress or bedding. How are we supposed to sleep on it? You and your sister can endure hardship and sleep on these bare wooden boards for three weeks, but I’m not capable of doing so. That’s why I told your sister not to speak for me. My original intention was to suggest that we discuss this with the production team and

to prove that she could endure hardship and follow arrangements, but she hadn’t noticed the lack of a mattress on the bed, making it impossible to sleep at night. This allowed Simone to mock her, and she couldn’t refute Simone since Simone herself had claimed she couldn’t sleep on it. Zac chimed in with a laugh. “I can’t even stand sleeping on such bare wooden boards for a day, let alone three weeks.” Keira echoed, “Sorry, I can’t do it either.” How could anyone sleep on this bare wooden board for three weeks? Even though it was summer now and the weather here was bearable, cooling down at night, one would still need something to cover themselves to avoid catching a cold. Besides, sleeping on a wooden board like this would make one’s whole body ache the next morning. “That’s easy for you to say, Jodie.” Eric also stated, “I can’t do it either. Plus, my body won’t be able to handle it after sleeping like that for a few days.” He hadn’t wanted to get involved at first, but if they didn’t discuss this with the production team and instead let Jodie decide that they would sleep on these bare wooden boards for three weeks, 1/2 who could endure it? This wasn’t about being pretentious or enduring hardship. It was simply unrealistic, and there was no need for it. Jodie didn’t expect her words to provoke discontent among the others. She cursed Simone inwardly for intentionally stirring things up. Her eyes welled up with tears, and

Jodie and said, “I didn’t say anything just now, did I? But your eyes have welled up with tears, making it seem like I bullied you. I was just being honest, so please don’t play the victim card on me again.” Back in the Gray Family, Jodie would often play the victim card on her like this; after just a few words from Simone, Jodie’s eyes would well up with tears as if she had been bullied. In reality, Simone hadn’t done anything at all. However, even with the entire Gray Family present, they would blame her without any reason, assuming she couldn’t tolerate and thus mistreated their dear Jo… Now that Jodie was resorting to the same old trick again, Simone had to point it out intentionally. Of course, once Jodie’s actual relationship with Aaron came to light in the future, her ‘playing the victim card again’ would be exposed for sure. Simone had planned from the beginning how to set traps for Aaron and Jodie continuously. Of course, these two had only
