“Lestic…”
“How many
times have I told you not to call me ‘Lestie’!”
Lester’s voice was icy as he glared at Calista with nothing but disdain in his eyes.
Calista clenched her teeth, seething with resentment.
She absolutely detested Lester’s arrogant demeanor-as if, despite them both being children of the
Peyer family, he was the only one with any real pedigree, and no one else could hold a candle to him.
It was insufferable.
If it weren’t for her needing to manipulate him for her own ends, Calista wouldn’t want to have anything
to do with Lester at all.
But now, needing to stir the pot, she had to swallow her pride.
“Lestie, I’ve come today because there’s something I need to warn you about. You don’t have to be so
hostile towards me.”
Lester felt nauseous just hearing her speak. He hadn’t even done anything to her yet, and she was
already welling up with tears, acting as if he was bullying her-it was utterly revolting.
“You, warn me? Spare me the crocodile tears. What’s the scheme this time? Just spit it
out.”
Calista’s face was a mask of humiliation at Lester’s attitude, but inside she was sneering, eager to see
his face drop in dismay in just a moment-it would be a sight to behold. Calista sniffled and took an
envelope out of her bag, handing it to Lester.
“I know you’re with Sasha now, and even though the family doesn’t approve, I don’t think it’s a big deal.
As long as she’s someone you truly care for, you two should be together.”
Listening to Calista’s words, Lester’s face twisted into a sardonic smile.
He had figured out his little sister’s game-she was here to sow discord, trying to make him doubt
Sasha.
“You wish me and Sasha well, could it be because only then Sasha won’t compete with you for
Jameson’s affection?”
Calista’s cheeks turned a faint red as she feigned annoyance. “Lestie, what are you talking about?
Sasha has already divorced Jameson. There’s no chance for them to get back together, why would I be
wary of Sasha?”
“Oh, you’re so sure they won’t get back together?”
Calista’s expression turned sly, almost pitying, as she glanced at Lester and said, “Lestic, what are you
saying? Sasha is with you now, she wouldn’t turn back to Jameson, would. she?” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lester didn’t respond, just watched Calista leisurely, waiting to see what kind of trouble she was trying
to stir up.
Seeing Lester not biting, Calista wasn’t discouraged and continued to chatter away.
“Besides, Lestie, the relationship between Sasha and Timothy seems a bit complicated too. They’ve
been seen together at hotels and night meetings. I wonder… if you’re wearing the green horn?”
Lester finally reacted, his brow furrowing as he stared at Calista. “What do
you mean?”
Calista motioned for Lester to look at the envelope and then said, “Lestie, I genuinely wish you and
Sasha the best, but she doesn’t seem like a good match. Why don’t you consider someone else? I
could even introduce you to a few girlfriends.”
But Lester was already tired of her nonsense, he tore open the envelope and glanced at the contents.
He froze.
The photos revealed Sasha and Timothy.
They were both wearing bathrobes and towels in a hotel room doorway, and there was a shot of
Timothy exiting and using his key card to enter the room next door.
This… If Lester wasn’t aware of their relationship, he might have been led to misunderstand.
He chuckled inwardly, but his face remained stern.
Calista, thinking he was impacted, offered insincere comfort, “Lestie, don’t be sad. If Sasha is not good
for us, we’ll just move on without her.”
