Chapter 667
Meanwhile.
The night was deep, and the streets of the United Realmon States were ablaze with neon lights.
A pink supercar tore through the darkness, its engine roaring.
Inside the cabin, the bass of the stereo was deafening.
Anna drove with one hand on the steering wheel, waving the other excitedly as she laughed. “Isabella, you gave that hillbilly way too much credit! Did you see the stupid look on her face? She swallowed everything I said. She actually thought I’d accept some hick as my cousin p>
Her expression was twisted with undisguised mockery and disdain. “What an idiot. A few sweet words and she lost all sense of reality p>
“A peasant who grew up in the sticks thinks she deserves to step into our social circle p>
Isabella sat in the passenger seat, offering soft words of caution. “Anna, don’t say that. She’s your cousin after all p>
“Bullshit!” Anna yanked the steering wheel, executing a flawless drift as the car glided smoothly into another lane. “I only have one cousin, and that’s you! Who does that random woman from the middle of nowhere think she is p>
The revulsion in her voice was practically spilling over.
Isabella watched her blatant disgust with intense satisfaction, though she carefully maintained a worried facade. “Anna, you’re too sweet to me… But she’s actually quite clever. She might not have completely bought your act p>
“Clever? Her?” Anna scoffed loudly. “How smart can a high school dropout be? She’s been poor her whole life-she’s trashy to her core! Now that she’s finally wormed her way into a wealthy family, what do you think she wants most? Acceptance and validation, obviously! I butter her up a little, and tomorrow I’ll toss her some out-of-season handbag I don’t want. Just watch, she’ll be groveling for scraps and eating out of the palm of my hand p>
Imagining the scene, she let out a triumphant, malicious laugh.
A glint of dark triumph flashed through Isabella’s eyes, though her tone remained perfectly anxious as she sighed softly. “But Anna, she did save Grandma earlier. Grandma is incredibly grateful and treats her like an absolute treasure right now if we do this… won’t it look bad p>
“What are you afraid of?” Anna sneered. “Saved Grandma? What kind of skills could a hillbilly possibly have to save my grandmother? If she was actually capable of that, would Grandma have been stuck in that private medical center for years? It was just dumb luck p>
Anna’s laugh grew even colder. “She really thinks she’s somebody now. She even had the nerve to say she’s going to give our grandparents a full medical checkup tomorrow it’s hilarious! Who does she think she is? The only reason she got away with it is because Grandpa and Grandma are old and confused enough to be tricked by her p>
“Just you wait. Tomorrow, in front of everyone, I’m going to rip off her fake mask and show Grandpa and Grandma exactly what kind of incompetent fraud she really is p>
Anna grew more fired up the more she spoke, slapping the steering wheel hard for emphasis.
Seeing Anna’s hatred for Serena reach its peak, the corners of Isabella’s lips twitched upward in an imperceptible smirk.
She lowered her eyes in deep satisfaction.
She deliberately chose not to tell Anna the truth: that Serena was, in fact, a brilliant medical talent.
Let Anna be the weapon.
Serena was a tough bone to chew.
If Anna swung the axe, she was bound to suffer some blowback.
But as long as it destroyed Serena, what did a little collateral damage matter?
“Don’t you worry, Isabella. I have plenty of ways to make sure that
hillbilly suffers endless humiliation t
during her stay in the United
Realmon States!” Noticing Isabella’s silence, Anna spun the steering whee sharply and sneered. “I’ll show that bumpkin the clear difference between a peasant and high society p>
