From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 809: 405 Threat (Fifth Watch) _1

“Second Brother,” a touch of grievance appeared on Vanessa Aria’s face, making it seem like Peter Aria was bullying her.

“Mother always said that you loved me the most when we were little. I’d always believe that my disappearance during my childhood wasn’t intentional on your part. I have always been convincing myself that you, my Second Brother, had your own untold difficulties, but always treated me as a true sister in your heart. I don’t know what I did wrong to make you dislike me so much. If that’s the case, I might as well leave the Aria family,” Isabella Foster said, wiping away her tears, her expression filled with sorrow.

The light in Peter Aria’s eyes turned icy in an instant, giving her a deep, penetrating gaze.

This gaze made Vanessa Aria’s scalp tingle and her back shiver with cold.

Faking a few sobs to mask her panic.

With disgust, Peter Aria frowned. First there was Virginia Frost, and now Vanessa Aria… No, he didn’t want to tarnish his little sister’s name. Vanessa was not worthy.

If only they would try to be movie stars. It’s a big loss for the Oscars.

“I decided not to expose you out of respect. But if you insist on disgusting me, then don’t blame me. I don’t know what your ultimate goal is, but as my sister, you are far from worthy. The name Vanessa Aria, you don’t deserve it either.”

With the cold and unfeeling voice of Peter Aria, the woman across the table turned pale.

“Second Brother…”

“Don’t call me Second Brother!” Peter Aria rejected her without mercy, his face hardened like frost.

Feeling aggrieved, Vanessa bit her lip and a tear slipped from her eye, making her look pitiful.

But inside, she was terrified. She’d always thought her facade was perfect, even Madam Aria hadn’t discovered it. How did he know?

“Mother misses her daughter, your appearance has comforted her. For mother’s sake, I won’t expose you. But remember who you truly are. Don’t get too immersed in your act and forget that you are not the real Mistress of the Aria family. Be a good daughter as you should be and I will give you the respect and honor you deserve. Don’t nurture any delusions.” Peter Aria warned coldly.

Vanessa Aria’s face turned ghastly pale, filled with humiliation.

It felt like a slap in the face. Her dignity stomped into the mud by the man in front of her.@@novelbin@@

Her pitiful self-esteem was shattered.

All these years, she was flattered by the sons and daughters of nobles in Lostswa. Everywhere she went, she was the honored guest. As time passed, she actually start to believe that she was a noblewoman, until today when Peter Aria tore off her mask, making her face burn with shame and stirring her to the realization.

Turns out she was just an imposter.

“Where is my sister?” Peter Aria has no patience to beat around the bush.

Vanessa Aria stared blankly a moment before laughing.

Her laugh was exaggerated and terrifying, echoing like a malevolent spirit.

Peter Aria watched the woman in front of him, who acted like a lunatic.

“If you tell me where my sister is, I can forget the past. If not…”

“Or what?” The woman’s laughter abruptly stopped, her eyes full of mockery and scorn.

“Peter Aria, since you’ve made it clear, I need not pretend anymore. I’ve been playing the act for so many years and it’s exhausting. You can now tell your mother, tell everyone in Lostswa that the Mistress of the Aria family is an imposter. Let’s see who will believe you?”

He was away from Lostswa for over a decade, during which time she used the power of the Aria family to create name for herself, which was far more significant now than before.

If Peter Aria wanted to ruin her reputation, then he is just daydreaming.

The woman finally ripped off her mask, revealing a hideous face.

This face, Peter Aria felt sick even at a single glance.

Suddenly, Vanessa seemed to think of something. A glint of excitement flashed across her face as she eagerly said, “Peter Aria, I wonder who among your own sister and your beloved woman means more to you? I am incredibly curious.”

“If you only had one choice, who would you choose?”

With a gleeful smile, the woman watched the changing expressions of the man across from her, a sense of successful retaliation on her face.

If you cherish your sister so much, which of her and your beloved woman is more important to you?

“What exactly do you know?”

If looks could kill, Vanessa Aria would probably have been dead a thousand times over by now.

Vanessa Aria leaned back leisurely into her chair, played with her hair, and said somewhat indifferently, “You used to be the pride of the heavens. But you fell in love an actress of a lowly background. Madam Aria naturally disapproved. Not long after, your beloved woman left without saying goodbye and her whereabouts remains unknown. Angry about this, you went overseas never to return. It was a touching story. You have been faithful all these years, such love is unparalleled among men. I really envy that woman.”
