Chapter 1188 Shameless
Ava placed her hand on her lap, gradually moving it up to grab the hem of her dress. "Which orphanage was it?"
"The one next to Starhaven, what's it called? I don't remember."
"How can you not remember? Tell me which one it is!" Ava's voice was harsh, and she was visibly agitated.
Seeing this, Bishop immediately took her hand and gave her a comforting look.
Ava's mood calmed down significantly, and she took a deep breath.
Evelyn was quite frightened. "I really don't remember. It's been so many years, and I wasn't the one who adopted you. How would I know? I only know it was the one near Starhaven. Also, when they adopted you, you had a bracelet on your hand that looked quite valuable."
"Where is that bracelet? Where?" Ava asked immediately.
"Your parents hid that bracelet."
"Where did they hide it?" Ava pressed.
"How would I know!" Evelyn said.
Ava angrily retorted, "Liar! Did you sell the bracelet to pay off your gambling debts?"
Evelyn had already taken all the compensation money from her parents, let alone the bracelet.
"I really didn't take that bracelet. Your parents knew I liked to gamble, so they hid it to prevent me from finding it. That's the truth, I'm not lying to you. I even secretly searched the house but couldn't find it anywhere."
Ava continued to press, "Are you sure my parents hid that bracelet in the house?"
"It must be hidden in the house. They wouldn't have given it to someone else. That bracelet seemed very valuable, unless they sold it themselves."
"Impossible, my parents weren't like that!" Ava believed in their integrity. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been saving others in times of crisis.
People who could sacrifice themselves to save others wouldn't sell her bracelet for money.
Evelyn said, "Then I don't know. That's all I know. They hid it, and they died so suddenly that they didn't have time to arrange anything."
Ava leaned back in her seat. "The house has already been sold by you. Even if it was hidden there, it's gone now. Evelyn, you!"
Ava was so angry she didn't know what to say to her.
"I had no choice. I did take care of you for a while, and I left you at the door of SK Group. If I were really that heartless, I would have sold you to the mafia. You were so pretty, you could have fetched a good price, and then you would have been truly miserable. Thanks to me, you have a good life now. Even after your divorce, you got a lot of money. Even if I had bad intentions, I did a good deed. You should thank me."
Evelyn epitomized shamelessness.
"Shut up!" Bishop couldn't listen anymore. "You think you did a good deed? Look at yourself, you're despicable and ugly!"
"Why are you yelling at me?" Evelyn trembled with fear. "Am I not telling the truth?"
"Evelyn, Bishop is right. You are despicable and ugly, and you still have the nerve to defend yourself." Ava sneered. "You didn't sell me to the mafia, but don't think I don't know. You left me at SK Group to get money, and then you asked Grandma for more money. You're disgusting!"
Bishop, with a stern face, said, "Ava, do you need me to teach her a lesson?"
Ava really had bad luck, surrounded by such abnormal people.
