Chapter 132: Mastermind (1/2)
Shirley widened her eyes as she lifted her gaze up and glared, ”Gart! You! Do you know the consequences of your actions!?”
The ghastly silhouette formed and materialised into a young man with noble features. He looked sharp and had a charming trait to his face. He smiled amiably and spoke, ”Oh, I do know... Hehe, other than getting beat up a little by some of your elders and your father, you will be promised to me at the banquet tomorrow!”
”You!” Shirley shouted, but felt her body go limp and hot. It was even getting difficult for her speak as she felt her mind go hazy.
Her breathing hastened slightly, she looked at Felicia with a heated gaze before she muttered sadly, ”Why?”
Obviously, she could tell that without Felicia's help, he couldn't have made his way inside her palace.
Gart chuckled lightly before he grinned, ”Felicia, why don't you say why you fed a Peak Earth Grade aphrodisiac to her?”
With tears still flowing down her eyes, dripping onto the ground, Felicia shouted, ”How dare you!? How dare you collude with our twenty-seventh brother to drug me!? He! How could you!?”
Shirley looked at her tear-filled eyes, she gathered up her last bit of strength to utter, ”I don't know what you're talking about... Nor did I collude... with any brother to drug you...”
Hearing that, Felicia cried out in hate, ”Don't play dumb! I know for a fact that you did it! I have evidence! He! Our twenty-seventh brother raped me! Why did you do it!? I thought we were close sisters! I thought we were family!” Sobbing out her emotions, she collapsed as she kneeled.
A few seconds passed before suddenly, a mocking laugh rang out as both of their heads turned to look at its direction.
”Hahaha, this is so hilarious! Hahaha!” Gart kept laughing like a madman.
”What?” Felicia felt disconcerted.
”You people dance on the palm of my hands so much like a puppet that I can't get enough of it! Hahaha!” Gart kept laughing as he pointed at her.
He suddenly grabbed Shirley's hands as he lifted her up, letting her hang while her knees touched the ground, ”You know what!? The evidence I presented you is fake! You'd seriously believed the Imagery Crystal that was given by me?”
”...What do you mean?” Felicia felt her mind go dull, she felt incredibly confused and bewildered right now.
”The Shirley that you saw in that Imagery Crystal was just a person that was disguised as Shirley.” Grinning to his ear, Gart smiled as he looked at the fool who fell for his plot, that even a 10-year old could see through.
”... No... No...” Felicia muttered as she shook her head.
Even though he thought that a 10-year old could see through this plot of his, the situation and the circumstance he gave the fake evidence to her could even make an experienced person not doubt the faked evidence.
Smiling at her in derision, Gart spoke in a deranged tone, ”How do you feel betraying your only closest sister? Oh, she is also your closest friend, right? Please forgive my humble self for trampling on your feelings in this manner.”
