Chapter 4

It seems that because he was afraid that I would suspect their relationship, Melvin really did accompany me for the past few days after he got home from work.

And today Shirley and I have been allowed to return home. Melvin also preferred to help me rather than Shirley.

Even though I could feel Shirley's sharp gaze on me. If a gaze could kill, then my head would be blown off by Shirley's gaze right now.

In the past, I wouldn't have noticed a small thing like this, but after finding out about the affair between Melvin and Shirley, I could see it so clearly.

I no longer trusted Melvin or Shirley, and that made me wary when they were around me.

Moreover, I realized that Shirley was very dangerous with her great ambition to replace me.

"Honey, my legs still feel stiff, can you help me?" I asked Melvin to help me, I did that on purpose to see how Shirley would react.

Melvin was surprised to hear my request, but he had to do it to avoid arousing my suspicion.

Of course I noticed the awkwardness, at a glance Melvin was seen glancing at Shirley who was staring in disbelief.

I could hear Shirley stomping her feet. I'm sure she was very annoyed when she saw Melvin embracing me to help me down the stairs.

Shirley also quickened her pace to catch up with me and Melvin. When Shirley was right behind me, she pushed my shoulder hard, causing me to fall forward.

Fortunately, the stairs we were going down were almost over, so I only rolled over twice. Even so, my legs were in a lot of pain this time.

As I was about to scold Shirley and ask what she had done, I could hear Shirley's muffled screech with her eyes watering.

"Oh my goodness, sister. I'm so sorry, I tripped on my foot and accidentally bumped into you." Shirley's soft voice sounded trembling, and her face looked like she was about to cry.

Melvin, who saw Shirley's pitiful appearance, immediately felt sorry for her and approached her with a panicked face.

"Are your legs okay, Shirley? Why aren't you careful? You tripped, didn't you?" Melvin held Shirley's shoulders and stroked her hair lovingly.

I, who was slumped on the floor with a bruised leg, could only stare at them in amazement and disbelief. Fortunately, my assistant, Steven, promptly helped me back to my feet.

Melvin embraced Shirley's shoulders, which were visibly trembling, then they walked over to me. To be honest, I was sick of looking at them both, it made me feel sick to my stomach.

"Sister, are you okay?" Shirley's hand reached out to touch my arm, she looked at me with a guilty gaze.

Unwilling to be touched by her, I brushed Shirley's hand away quite forcefully. Shirley moaned softly while holding the hand I had just brushed away.

Melvin, who saw that, became angry and displeased with my actions.

"Eleanore! Why did you treat Shirley so rudely?! "Melvin threw a sharp look at me, then immediately switched to checking Shirley's hand.

"I'm fine. You're going to make Shirley even more angry, Melvin." Shirley secretly blinked her eyes to squeeze out a tear.

I rolled my eyes lazily at Shirley's hypocritical behaviour. Why couldn't I see all these lies before?

This time, I really felt stupid. How could I not have realized Shirley's abnormal behaviour before?

"Stop acting childish, Eleanore. Didn't Shirley already say that she didn't mean to? "Melvin frowned unhappily as he looked at me.

"If she didn't mean to, how could I have fallen like this?" I replied loudly to Melvin, I didn't want to keep giving in like before.

"Eleanore!" Melvin yelled at me so loudly that some passersby looked at us.

Shirley jumped back into action, taking Melvin's arm and trying to calm his overflowing emotions.

I waved my hand at them, intending to drive them out of my sight.

"Go away, I'll go home by myself." Luckily, I deliberately told Steven to bring my car so I didn't have to travel with those two bastards.

Melvin quickly turned away and walked away, hugging Shirley carefully as if she would crack if he touched her too hard.

"Take me to the car."

Steven immediately took me to my car; at least this way, I could be a little calmer.

. .

When I got home, it turned out that Melvin and Shirley had arrived first. Without any hesitation, I entered the house with Steven's help.

However, when I entered the house, I felt an unusual atmosphere. I could even clearly feel that my stepmother was staring at me sharply at that moment.

My stepmother walked towards me with an angry face. I was about to greet her when a slap landed smoothly on my cheek.
