Chapter 77 

As Clara observed Zora’s panic, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She smoothed down her messy hair and eyed Zora, who looked as if she’d been struck by lightning. “Scared, are you?” 

My heart tightened. So, Zora did have secrets. No wonder she had asked Maddox to keep his mouth shut. But how did Clara know? Could it be… 

shook my head. What a chaotic family this was. 

“Clara you shut your mouth!” Zora clung to Carl, her eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at Clara, “Shut up!” 

“Alright then!” As Clara adjusted her torn dress, she suddenly strode forward and slapped Zora across the face. Zora, still clutching Carl, stumbled and fell onto the sofa. 

Carl, who hadn’t been crying before, was now bawling, having been startled by the sudden commotion. 

I was seething with anger 

Zora, however, was quick to comfort Carl, not caring about her own throbbing cheek. She scrambled to her feet, picked Carl up, and soothed him. Then she turned to Clara and yelled, “If you scare Carl, no one will forgive you!” 

It was clear to me that Zora truly cared for Carl. 

Clara glanced at Carl, whose little face was flushed from crying, and let out a cold huff. “It’s your negligence that you can’t take care of him properly” 

“You Zora was so infuriated by her sister that she was shaking like a leaf. 

But Clara was nonchalant, playing with her hair. “Zora, from now on, if you dare lay a finger on me, I swear you’ll be ruined! You think I don’t know about your ambitions, that you’re trying to be the lady of this house? Dream on!” 

“Why are you acting so high and mighty? You’re no better!” Zora shot back, her anger evident. 

“I’m nothing like you!” Clara retorted shamelessly. “I just want what you want, and don’t think I don’t see through you. Look, anything you want can easily 

be mine! 

I don’t want to steal the title of Mrs. Dawson, just a night’s sleep. As long as the Mr. Dawson wants it, I’m more than willing to open my legs!” 

As she spoke, she twirled a strand of her hair and added slyly, “Oh, do you think I should remind Mrs. Dawson? I wouldn’t want to disappoint her, she’s such a kind, naive woman. I’d love to help her out.” 

Overwhelmed by Claras blatant threats, Zora was visibly shaken. She glared at Clara, but her eyes lacked the fierceness they once had. 

“Stop talking nonsense, Clara! Don’t push me” Zora warned, her eyes fixed on Clara. 

“Push you? You think this is pushing you? You think nobody knows what you’ve been up to? But remember, what goes around comes around!” Clara was quite the tricky one. Her expressions were hard to read. 

“What did you do to Maddox? Zora’s words confirmed my suspicions. 

“Hahaha! Maddox? What could I possibly have done to that dumb ass?Clara flicked her straightened hair arrogantly. “Do I even need to do anything? With just a little beckoning, he comes crawling to lick my boots! Hahaha! How else would I know about your dirty deeds, your failed attempt to sneakily get rid of someone else’s daughter Tell me, what do you think Mr. Dawson would do if he knew about your nasty tricks?” 

Hearing this, I felt a chill down my spine. I stared at Carl in Zora’s arms, wondering if she would harm my children if she couldn’t get what she wanted in this house 

In the scene, Clara was no longer the innocent bunny, her demeanor was more like a cunning fox. But Zora, on the other hand, seemed to have lost the fight 

She despised Clara, yet she dared not touch her. 

What should have been an easy win was ruined by Clara. 

And I had seen Clara’s dark, cunning, and ruthless side. 

“Zora, do you think it’s time for me to leave, or for you to leave? Or should we live peacefully like a loving family?” Clara advanced threateningly towards Zora “Also, sis, $300 is not enough for me! If you can give $2,000 to Maddox, I should at least get the same, right? You’re my older sister after all. Oh, and what information do you want to get… that woman and her child? She’s Mr. Dawson’s woman, is she?” 

Upon hearing this, Zora was rendered speechless.
