Wicked Plan

"You said that kid dared to threaten Evan with a knife when that guy finally wanted to visit her?!"

In a room, a man's roar was heard after the man finished listening to the report given by his wife. The man's breath was slightly out of breath, after he had just suddenly spilled his anger with his old body.

The wife carefully tried to calm her husband's anger by hugging the man's arm in a spoiled way. Her beautiful face that was polished by make-up was trying to be as sad as she could be, as the woman spoke to her husband in a pitiful tone.

"I did manage to get her to stop. But after that, she just vent out her anger on me, Honey. Nola is not usually like this. I do not know what went wrong, until she had to oppose this engagement so hard when we were just trying to think of her own good."

The man quickly took his wife's hand when the woman finished speaking. "She dare to vent her anger on you?! Such an ignorant child, she even dared to do something like that to her own mother?! As expected from a lowly daughter. No matter how hard you try to educate her, she will still act like an uncivilized woman," said the man annoyed. His voice began to sharpen as he berated his own daughter. For that man, no one has the right to hurt his beautiful wife. Especially Finola. His daughter should be grateful that he still wants to take care of her, even though the child is just an illegitimate child created because of his one night stand with some random woman.

Ah, no. If that woman had not begged him to look after her daughter at the end of her life, he would not have bothered to spend a penny for a child he did not even know when she was born. At first Max's feelings were not too bad when he saw that the child who claimed to be his daughter had a cute pretty face. But who would have thought that not long after he took care of the child, the girl who originally looked obedient would turn into a little devil who always gave her family some headaches.

"That kid. Just see what I am going to do when she gets home later. As if making trouble with his actions is not enough, she also dares to scold you now? Who does she think she is! We give her a house and a meal, but see what kind of reward she gives us instead."

Sarah secretly smiled as she saw her own husband's annoyance because of Finola. All this time, she had tried to contain his emotions when she saw Finola's face at her house only to see that the girl was hated by her own father. There was no greater hatred for Sarah than her hatred for that annoying girl.

When Max, her husband brought young Finola to their house, Sarah tried hard to hold herself from tearing young Finola's face at that moment. Finola should just be an ordinary lowly girl who was not special at all. But for Max, it seems impossible to sleep with a woman with an ordinary face when she already has someone as perfect as her. From her mother gen, young Finola has a sweet face that is easily liked by many people. Even her child, who was always called cute, had nothing to do with the natural beauty that Finola had emitted since she was very young.

Sarah was really afraid that her child would be easily replaced because of the beautiful face of the little girl. But Sarah was grateful that Finola was just beautiful and did not have a shrewd brain. With a bit of a plan, Max who initially had little care for the child easily turned indifferent to Finola under the slow instigation of him and their daughter. Sarah and her daughter have always been good at playing the good person in front of Max, but turn into the bad person behind the guy. Many years have passed since Finola lived with them, but Max has not yet returned to being willing to look at Finola as his own daughter.

This, of course, satisfied Sarah. Because even though she could not tear the face of the woman who had been playing with her husband behind her back, Sarah could at least see the seed born of their illicit relationship suffer for the rest of her life.

"Do not be so hard on her, Honey. She's made Evan mad now. Instead of asking him to apologize to me, wouldn't it be better if we made her apologize to Evan first? They will be getting married soon. Our plans will be ruined if the engagement broke just because of Nola's actions earlier was not it?"

Max was silent. Sarah was right. The most important thing for them right now, was to find a way so that Evan would not be offended by his daughter's actions and still want to continue with their wedding plans.

Max gently stroked his wife's fine hair. "You are right. You are indeed the best. Thank you for trying to understand for the good of all of us Sarah," said Max, kissing his wife's forehead lovingly. Sarah smiled gently in response to her husband's words. "You are welcome, Dear. You are welcome," she replied softly even though her heart was as dark as the night sky.

In the future, Finola must marry a crippled man who would not be able to survive for more than three more years. Not to mention that the man was also a very cold and hard to approach by people. Sarah was really looking forward to the moment when, Finola would turn into a widow with the fortune they would take after the man's death. The girl would be alone with nothing left for her. Finola would be in torment in her marriage, and she would not even find peace after her husband's death.

Sarah really could not wait to see the pained expression on that smug face later.
