Furious, Willa replied, “Fine! Do you think I would want you back anyway? Don’t flatter yourself.”
She signed her name on the papers and threw them at my face.
I quietly picked them up and put them away. Then I looked at her and said, “One last thing, call your sister. Ask how she’s doing.”
Willa put on a proud smile. “What now? You want my sister to talk me into taking you back?”
“You’re dreaming, Yohan Frost. My sister went abroad. She’s busy with school and hasn’t replied to my messages in a while.”
“She doesn’t care about your stupid problems. Even if you two used to get along, I’m still her real sister. She’ll never take your side.”
I simply nodded. “Alright.”
At that moment, Kevin’s phone rang. He answered, said a few words before hanging up.
Then, with a smug look on his face, he spoke to me, “Yohan, I just got a call. Your sister died while giving birth in that mountain village. I’m so sorry for your loss.”
I stayed silent. I knew then that Quincy hadn’t made it through after all.
But Willa didn’t care at all. Instead, she quickly asked Kevin, “Yohan’s sister is dead, but what about the project? It won’t be affected, right?”
