Chapter 333
If Neil was not present, she believed that Mindy would have already hit her.
“Mrs. Pond, you allowed Ada to spread rumors about me threatening you to only make my favorite desserts. So, why can’t I give my side of the story? I’m not the one embarrassing the Pond Family. It’s you and Ada.”
“How dare you!”
Mindy gritted her teeth, but Idris came to his senses. He turned around and glared at Mindy.
“What dessert? Explain yourself!”
Mindy knew that if she came clean, it would be over for her. In response, she covered her face and started crying. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“I don’t know what she’s talking about. I asked her to come home for her birthday, but she told me that she wouldn’t return if I didn’t prepare her favorite food. That’s why I prepared all the food based on her liking. Isn’t that enough? I don’t know what else to do!”
Silvia sneered. “Mrs. Pond, did I threaten you and stop you from making anything for Ada?”
Mindy stopped crying for a moment and glared at Silvia. “I don’t remember, but you said that you didn’t want to eat chocolate cake. Doesn’t that mean you don’t want us to prepare Ada’s favorite food?”
“What a lie. If I hadn’t recorded the phone call, you would’ve been able to frame me. After all, it’s hard for people to believe that a mother would plot against her daughter.”
Mindy’s face turned ghastly.
However, Silvia did not give her any opportunity to react. She immediately took out her cell phone to play a recording.
Everyone had different emotions after they heard the recording. The one they shared was the disgust in their gaze as they looked at Mindy and Ada.
After Silvia saw Mindy’s defeated face, she walked toward her and said, “I believe everyone heard that I was just asking you to prepare me a vanilla cake. I didn’t threaten you to not make Ada’s favorite.
“But Ada’s your favorite child. You couldn’t possibly forget about her favorite food. You did it so that the guests would misunderstand the situation and believe that I’ve always tried to steal your love and attention from Ada. That way, the guests would hate me.”
Mindy’s lips were trembling, and her eyes were filled with anger. “What are you talking about? It’s not like that!”
Silvia’s calm expression suddenly changed into disappointment. “Mrs. Pond, since you hate me so much, why did you ask me to come home for my birthday? If you wanted me to stand on the sidelines, you didn’t have to do this. I’m not that sixteen–year–old girl who craves love from her family anymore, My birthday will pass with or without my family members celebrating it with me. Why did you have to choose this day to plot against me?”
Mindy grew extremely embarrassed when she felt everyone looking at her with disgust. As a result, she lost all rationale.
“Because I really hate you and I hope you die!”
Idris realized that things had gotten out of control so he yelled, “Mindy, shut up!”
However, it was too late.
She was not listening anymore. Her intense rage had clouded her mind. Right now, she only wanted to hurt Silvia with vicious words.
“Every time I see you, I feel so much hatred. You and Ada are worlds apart. Ada’s great, but you? Apart from looking like her, you don’t compare at all!
“You’re disobedient, and nothing you’ve done is good enough. You’re like a stain in my life!
“You’re rotten inside out, and I should’ve killed you when you were born! You’re causing the Pond Family so much trouble because I didn’t do it back then! Why aren’t you dead-”
Before she could finish, Idris slapped her.
The entire living room fell silent.
