Chapter 3110
Before Megan's father died, Garret would at least pretend to be a caring stepmother.
As soon as he passed, Megan's nightmare began.
The villagers all had vicious tongues.
They put out the rumor that Megan was cursed; that curse had supposedly led to the death of her mother followed by her father.
Garret had hated Megan before, but she became even more brutal in her abuse when she heard the villagers’ impression of Megan.
Megan did not blame anybody but her own luck.
Garret kept up her verbal abuse the entire journey.
The other villagers pointed at them openly, but nobody stood up for Megan.
She was cursed; nobody dared approach her for fear of contacting her ill luck.
Megan smelled the sharp scent of nail varnish before they entered the house.
With a frown, she peered through the door and found Mia busy with painting her nails a vivid red.
Megan had no love for her half-sister either.
In her previous life, Megan had received more than her fair share of abuse from Mia.
She was also the one to have leaked Megan's scandalous photos to the public.
I'm not going to be that naive this time.
Megan stared coldly at Mia with a knowing smile on her lips.
When Mia had completed the last fingernail, she held up her hands and strode towards Megan.
Examining Megan's torn clothing, Mia chuckled.
"Don't feel bad about the new clothes that my mother had bought for me.You were supposed to receive a new set of clothes, too, but I told my mother that nothing you wear would look good, so she saved herself some money.Besides, you're a middle school dropout.You wouldn't need to use any makeup, am I right?"
Mia's arrogance was the same as it had been in Megan's past life.
However, Megan wasn't affected this time.
"Oh, really? Well then, enjoy your new clothes!" Megan said with cold indifference.
Upon hearing her, Mia's jaw dropped in astonishment.
She could not believe Megan could appear that apathetic and emotionless to the point of sounding disdainful.
Mia watched in a rage as Megan walked past her.
Having failed to provoke and upset the other woman, she felt frustrated and angry.
"Megan, you're only fit to be my servant for the rest of your life! You're uncultured and ugly!" Megan did not feel stung by Mia's tirade.
The only thing she felt was exasperation at her sister's immaturity.
Megan grabbed the ax and headed up the hill for wood.
At the village entrance, she saw a group of girls in the distance.
They were led by Mia, who was clad in a light green jacket with two red flowers in her hair.
Though Mia didn't have the glamor of a movie star in Megan's previous life, she was still pretty in a girl next door sort of way, which drew people to her.
Megan knew she was unable to do anything to Mia at that moment, so she fought hard to control the rage within her every time she caught sight of her sister.
Thankfully, the days were long.
Megan had plenty of time to take back everything that Mia robbed from her.
Mia was not the type who would leave one alone if one stayed out of her way.
The scars of a whip on Megan's body were proof of that.
When Mia caught sight of Megan walking toward them, she led her friends over. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"Hey, isn't that my dear sister? Are you feeling better?"
Megan knew where Mia was heading with this.She clenched her fists and glared at the other woman.
"Hmm, she appears to be mute.Never mind, Mom will marry you to that dimwit Leeroy" Mia said.
Her friends laughed delightedly at that insult as they always did.
The air up on the hill was crisp.
As Megan ascended, she schemed on what she would do next.
Judging from the rate at which Garret was preparing, the arrival of the film crew over the next couple of days would be her best bet.
Megan had been working in the show business for eight years.
Though she had been coerced by Herman for not being able to film a good pilot, all of her auditions had fallen short with people taking advantage of her one way or another.
However, that didn't mean Megan was not shrewd.
AS an actress, she was conscious of her posture and knew how to create, handle, and navigate emotional chemistry.
Megan had always wanted to be an actual actress, but her talents were never utilized fully.
