The pain in my chest felt like being cut again and again with a dull blade,far worse than the wound I got that night.
“And there’s more,”Natalie’s voice cut back in.
“Did you ever wonder why Ethan was so eager to take you to that new French restaurant last year?”
“It was because he lost a bet with me.The bet was that he would take you out for seafood.Honestly,I didn’t think you would survive it.”
I snapped my head up,my eyes wide with shock.
That was when I suffered a severe allergic reaction.I had spent a whole night in the hospital.The doctor said that if I had arrived a few minutes later,I could have died.
He had stood outside my door,his eyes red,looking helpless.In the end,it was all just a bet?
“Why...”My voice shook as I asked,“Natalie,why?I never did anything to you.”
“Why,you asked?”She laughed and then her tone went cold and cruel.“Because you act so arrogantly.It’s disgusting.”
“The only daughter of the Sinclair Family in town,so special.But you and your family have been nothing but used.Everything you have should be mine.Ethan loves me.He says I make him feel like a real man.Besides having a rich father,what do you even have?”
