From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 810: 405 Threat (Fifth Watch) _2

Peter Aria stared at her coldly. She had been with the Arias for over a decade, and her mother trusted her immensely; it wasn’t hard for her to know these things.

“And your sister, even more pitiable, used to be a noble lady, but now she’s fallen to such a state. Truly lamentable… ”

Peter Aria’s gaze was icy. Suddenly, he grasped her arm. His fingers were embedded into her, like iron, and Vanessa Aria could not break free.

“Speak, where is my younger sister?”

Vanessa Aria laughed gently, “It seems that in your heart, your sister is more important. Well, of course, after all, you were the one who lost her….”

Peter Aria’s fingers pressed down hard, his eyes cold and sinister. His handsome face was incredibly cold, and it had a deadly allure.

In his eyes, however, was a chill that went down to his bones.

Looking at Vanessa Aria, it was as if he was staring at a dead person.

Vanessa Aria was taken aback; this man always appeared calm and aloof to others, but she realized when he got brutal, he was even more attractive.

She wasn’t lying. She truly envied that woman, and she envied his sister even more.

To receive such a man’s undivided protection, it would make life worthwhile.

If only she had truly been his little sister…

The sharp pain in her arm snapped Vanessa Aria back from her scattered thoughts. Cold sweat appeared on her forehead, but she smiled dreamily.

“Brother, if you give me a kiss, I’ll tell you.”

She looked mesmerized at the handsome face in front of her.

I have waited for you for over a decade, only to receive your cold-hearted warning.@@novelbin@@

What a joke.

Peter Aria lost patience, his gaze resentful. He suddenly yanked his hand away as if he touched something repulsively filthy. “Get lost.”

Vanessa Aria was thrown onto the sofa, her bun undone, her hair messily scattered over her shoulders.

She was crying with laughter, her voice bitter: “If you hadn’t lost her that year, she’d still be with the Arias, being the envied noblewoman, instead of leading a life worse than death. You ruined her life. You owe her, for the rest of your life, you will never know her whereabouts.”

“Peter Aria, you’re so proud, respected by all as the heaven’s chosen son, praised by the world as the angel in white. However, you’re a failed man; you couldn’t protect the woman you loved, let alone your own younger sister. You’re a coward, drowning in guilt and forever repentant.”

Peter Aria took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he reopened them, the fury in his eyes had dissipated, leaving only clarity.

“What do you want?”

Vanessa Aria swept the hair off her face, walked to his side with graceful steps, raised her hand to stroke his face. Her fingers painted with flamboyant red nail polish gently brushed over his fair skin, creating a bizarre collision of colors.

“Brother, why don’t you like me?” she pouted, her breath as fragrant as an orchid, her eyes seductive, almost clinging to his body.

Peter Aria closed his eyes, muscles tightened, veins bulging on the backs of his hands.

“Appearance is but a reflection of the heart.”

Vanessa Aria covered her mouth and laughed charmingly. “Brother, do you know? I transformed my face to resemble your sister. So you don’t like it, huh? If your sister knew, she’d be heartbroken.”

Peter Aria suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as a blade, piercing the delicate face in front of him.

This face, at first glance might appear to be beautiful, but upon a closer look, it was disjointed, as if hastily put together, unnatural.

He tried to find a trace of his little sister in this fake face, but to his disappointment, all he saw was artificial allure and revolting flirtation.

Vanessa Aria hugged him, burying herself in his chest, inhaling his scent deeply and closing her eyes contently.

Sensing his repulsion and disgust, Vanessa Aria laughed. “Brother, do you know? The first time I saw your picture, I thought to myself, my brother is so excellent, no man can compare. He must be the best brother in the world. He lost me and must feel terribly guilty, he will try to make up to me a thousand times over. I didn’t expect you to dislike me.”

“Where did I go wrong? Brother, can you tell me?” she asked in a soft tone.

“You brazenly stole another’s nest and claim it as your own. You’re the most shameless woman I’ve ever met,” his cold mockery came from above her.

Vanessa Aria didn’t seem to mind, she simply laughed coquettishly.

“Brother, if you were nicer to me, I might soften and tell you all the secrets. Even if you were pretending to be nice to me, I would not mind one bit.”
