Revenge on My Sister and Ex-Husband (Adelaide) novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Adelaide smiled more brightly. “You schemed so hard to sleep

with Garrett but still couldn’t make him choose you. You tried

your best to tell Dad what you wanted but still couldn’t get me

kicked out of the Pierce family. You want me dead, but I’m still

here. It must be killing you. All that effort these past few days.

was all for nothing. It must hurt.”

“AAAAHHHH! ADELAIDE, SHUT UP!!” Amanda lost it and

flipped the entire table.

Dishes and cutlery clattered to the floor, but not a single staff

member showed up.

“ADELAIDE! I’M GOING TO RIP YOUR MOUTH OFF!” Amanda

shrieked, lunging at Adelaide like a madwoman.

But Adelaide had already stood when Amanda flipped the table.

She dodged easily again.

At this point, Amanda’s rage had tunneled her vision. Her only

focus was Adelaide’s face. She couldn’t think. So when Adelaide

shifted again, she couldn’t react in time and tripped, falling face-

first onto the floor.

Looking down at her, Adelaide calmly pulled out her phone and

dialed a number. “Hello, is that Evercrest Mental Health Center?

A patient with a mental illness is attacking me.”

Amanda froze for several seconds, unsure if she was hallucinating.

Who was Adelaide calling?

Evercrest Mental Health Center?

Only after Adelaide hung up did Amanda fully process what had happened. Her face contorted even more grotesquely. “ADELAIDE! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!”

She lunged again, only for Adelaide to dodge effortlessly once

more.

Just as Amanda picked up a shard of broken plate from the

floor and was about to strike again, a police officer in uniform

shouted, “Hey! What do you think you’re doing?!”

At the sight of the police officer, Amanda was startled and

quickly dropped the shard from her hand.

Adelaide was surprised that the police would show up, and she

guessed the staff must have called them.

Two police officers walked over and scanned the scene. One of them, a middle–aged officer, asked sternly, “Who made this

mess?”

She did,” Adelaide replied, pointing at Amanda.

“It wasn’t me! I didn’t do it!” Amanda frantically shook her head

and glared at Adelaide.

Adelaide sneered coldly, “Do you think the overhead cameras

are just for decoration?”

Amanda was stunned.

“You damaged private property. And just now, I saw you

attempting to assault this lady,” the middle–aged officer said as

he took out the handcuffs. “You’ll have to come with us to the

station.”

“I’m innocent! I’m mentally ill! I can’t handle provocation! She

deliberately triggered me, and that’s why I lost control and

smashed things!” Amanda screamed, her voice trembling with

fear.

Adelaide chuckled.

What a character. Always ready to pull the “I’m mentally ill”

card at any moment,

“We’ll need you to come with us as well, miss,” the officer

turned to Adelaide.
