Chapter 46
After everything that had happened with Derek earlier that day, Evelyn was mentally exhausted and wasn't in the mood for any more drama. The last thing she wanted was to waste her time trying to figure out what Sandra was thinking or plotting
int me to know where you live! Why? It's me, Sandy. Your best friend. What's wrong, Evie?" Sandra asked with a hurt expression on her
"You don't want
face.
"You're not my best friend, Sandra. Maybe you were when I didn't know better, but you're nothing to me now. You mean nothing to me, so please leave me alone, and cut the act.""" Evelyn said, not bothering to hold back anymore.
Sandra blinked in surprise, "Evie, Did I do something wrong?" She asked as a tear dropped from her eyes.
Evelyn sighed in exasperation, "Save your tears, will you? You're really getting on my nerves with this whole performance you have going on. Why not become an actress! Your performance is top notch and I'm sure you'll win multiple awards," Evelyn said, and Sandra frowned, wondering why Evelyn was talking to her in that manner.
"What do you mean, Evie? How can you refer to my desire to reconnect and bond with you as a performance!" Sandra asked and Evelyn broke into a humorless laugh
"I must have been so naive and gullible to not have seen through you," Evelyn said with a self-deprecating smile and then shook her head.
"You're
're confusing me,
Evie...
"Please stop. Sandra, please, just stop, okay? I'm not the gullible fool I once was. So, stop wasting both my time and yours." Evelyn said, and hearing that, Sandra narrowed her eyes.
"Gullible fool? What do you mean by that?" Sandra asked and just then, the spotted Derek and Michael coming since she was facing the door, while Evelyn had her back to the door.
"What do I mean! Why don't you tell me something, Sandrat Tell me why you're not married to Michael yet. Why are you interested in Derek when you have Michael!" Evelyn asked, and Sandra blinked, taken aback by what Evelyn said.
If Evelyn was asking her that then it only meant one thing: Evelyn knew of her affair with Michael
How did Evelyn find out about it! When she did find out? All these years, she and Michael had done their best to be careful, so how did she find out? Was that why she called off the wedding and left! Sandra mused.
Evelyn smirked when she saw the flicker of surprise on Sandra's face and in that moment, she couldn't help the smug feeling she felt watching as Sandra slowly realized that she had been making a fool of herself the whole time.
"Don't look so surprised, Sandra. Did you think I'd never find out about the both of you?" Evelyn asked with a smirk.
Wanting to know how much Evelyn knew, Sandra shook her head. "I didn't know my feelings for him were so obvious, Evie. I'm so sorry. I promise I never told him how I feel. '
Evelyn sighed and shook her head, "Perhaps you shouldn't become an actress. You're too dumb and stupid to be one if you can't even tell when your audience is no longer enjoying your performance. I'm so disappointed."
Sandra scowled. "What exactly do you know, Evie!" Sandra asked, coming out straight.
"What or rather, how much do you think I know?" Evelyn asked with a wry smile.
Tired of the games, and seeing that Evelyn knew about her and Michael, Sandra decided that there was no need for her to keep pretending in front of her. It was tiring for her since she hated Evelyn with every fiber of her being
"How long have you known?" she asked as she glanced behind Evelyn, in Michael's direction, to see that he was still busy introducing Derek to some of the guests
"What does it matter how long?" Evelyn asked with a perfectly arched brow.
"Is that why you called off the wedding and left!" Sandra asked and Evelyn shrugged.
"I'm sure you never wanted me to return. You must have thought I'd disappear forever and you can have all that is
is mine." Evelyn said with a smirk.
"If you know that, why did you return? You should go back to the hole you crawled out from," Sandra hissed, annoyed that she had been making a fool of herself this whole time when Evelyn knew everything. Evelyn, who had been waiting for Sandra to reveal her true color, smiled, "Finally, you've dropped the act. I was beginning to worry that you've

pretended for so long that you no longer know how to be real, Evelyn said, with a shake of her head and then tsked.
"Why did you pretend you knew nothing? Was it fun to watch me make a fool of myself?" Sandra asked irritably.
"I should be asking you that since it was you and Michael who made a fool of me. But unfortunately, I don't have the time to do this with you. Now that we don't have to pretend to like each other anymore, stay away from me, Evelyn said, wanting to walk past her.
Seeing as Michael and Derek were approaching them now, Sandra immediately fell to the ground with her glass of wine which shattered beside her. "Why are you doing this, Evie?" Sandra cried out loud to get the attention of everyone and the place became silent as all eyes turned to the sisters.
Evelyn stared at Sandra in shock, taken aback by the show she was putting on and feeling embarrassed when she felt all the eyes on her.
"What did I do to deserve such hatred from you? I've been nothing but a good sister to you. Why are you being mean to me simply because I remained friends with Michael!" Sandra asked before breaking into a sob.
Derek, who had seen Evelyn and had been wondering what she was doing there, suddenly made the connection after he heard Sandra's statement about being a good sister.
And then his heart skipped a beat when something else suddenly hit him.
Evelyn Quinn.
If she was Sandra's sister, and her name was Evelyn, that meant she was Michael's Evelyn.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
