Chapter 2 Zachary caught the viciousness in her eyes and felt a wave of disgust . " What's with that attitude ? You think I wanted to come pick you up ? Mom and Dad made me come ." " You're just an ex - con . Be grateful we're even letting you come home . Don't push your luck ! " " Stella's waiting for you at home . She made you a cake . Don't disappoint Stellar Hearing this , Yvette sneered : " I went to prison thanks to all of you , didn't I ? Especially you , my dear brother , Attorney Zachary . " [ When she'd taken the fall for Stella , Zachary had played no small part . ] Of course , it wasn't just Zachary . Her other three blood brothers and biological parents had all been in on it . ] Zachary froze , his expression immediately darkening . ] The old Yvette had always been completely submissive around him , desperately trying to please him . What was this about ? Zachary pinched the bridge of his nose and explained impatiently : ] " We didn't have a choice in that situation . We had to protect Stella . " ] " Stella's different from you . She's been sheltered her whole life . She couldn't handle prison . " ] ] Yvette's chest tightened , her throat feeling blocked , making it hard to breathe . Stella couldn't handle hardship , but she could ? They'd never cared whether she lived or died during those eighteen years she was on her own . ] She said coldly : " So I deserved all of this ? Her eyes were ice - cold as she stared straight at Zachary , a mocking smile playing at her lips . " That Yvette died the day of the verdict . " ] " I have nothing more to do with the Summers family . " ] Zachary was stunned . [ ] Seeing Yvette turn to leave , he snapped back to reality and called out with a frown : [ ] " Don't forget your place ! Without the Summers family , you're nothing ! You're worse than a street beggar !" Yvette stopped , her shoulders trembling slightly . [ ] Tlunking she was backing down , Zachary was about to press his advantage when he saw her slowly turn around . [ ] " Zachary , are you confused about something ? " Her voice carried a bone chilling coldness as she stepped closer . " Worse than a street beggar ? Isn't that exactly how I lived at the Summers house ? " Zachary's pupils contracted as he shouted angrily : " What are you talking about ?! Without us you would've starved to death out there ! " " If we hadn't brought you back , you never could've dreamed of such a luxurious lifer " ] ] Yvette suddenly laughed , her laughter cold and piercing : [ ] " Luxurious ? Zachary , so sleeping in the basement and eating your leftovers counts as a luxurious life . " " I really was worse than a beggar … " She paused , looking at Zachary's furious face , and said word by word : " At least nobody forces beggars to go to prison ! " ] Just as Zachary was about to respond , a Maybach pulled up in front of Yvette . A man stepped out quickly , bowed , and spoke with deep respect . " Are you Miss Yvette ? " " I am . " 1 His tone grew even more deferential . " My apologies for being late , Miss Summers . Please , get in the car . " ] ] Zachary's expression twisted in shock . That car model … if he remembered correctly , there were fewer than five in the entire country . Yvette hummed quietly.As she stepped in , she glanced back at him , still frozen in place . " Oh , and one more reason I'm not going back to the Summers house - I don't like being around livestock . " With that , she slid into the car in one smooth motion . ] The driver shot a cold glance at Zachary before walking around to the driver's seat . ] As the Maybach drove away , Zachary's eyes darkened . ] Who was it ? Other than the Summers family , who else would come to pick her up from prison ? ]
