Chapter 309

Yara hated stray cats and dogs.

The thought of those appalling creatures coming close had bile filling up her throat. Her disgust

intensified at the thought of rabies vaccinations after getting scratched or bitten by one of them.

“Sophia, do you understand what I’m saying?”

“I don’t.”

Sophia shook her head vigorously, yet she still carried the stray cat gently in her arms.

“Meow.”

“Are you hungry, Kitty?” Sophia gently caressed its head.

“Meow.”

“I’ll feed you, Kitty.”

Sophia picked up the freshly-peeled shrimp with her little hand and fed it to the kitten.

The kitten took a bite into the shrimp when it caught the sweet yet fishy smell. Its eyes sparkled at the

taste as it gulped down the rest of the shrimp down. In a blink of an eye, the entire shrimp was gone.

Peeling the shrimps had Yara’s hands covered with the nasty smell. Her pretty manicured nails were

also peeling off on the sides.

The twins didn’t want to eat it, but they fed it to the filthy cat. Have they done it on purpose just to spite

me?

“Franklin, Sophia, I peeled all these shrimps for you. How can you guys feed all of them to the cat?”

Yara’s temper spiked, and her voice turned shrill.

“Didn’t you say earlier that you wanted us to be happy?” Franklin raised his eyebrow and asked, “Can’t

you see Sophia likes Kitty? Why are you getting mad at her?”

Yara’s face was burning red from Franklin’s challenging tone, then her gaze turned dark as she tried to

keep it in check.

“You guys are playing a prank on me, am I right?”

“This doesn’t even count as a prank.” Franklin folded his arms over his chest and continued speaking

like an adult. “Don’t even think about becoming our mom, simply because we’re blood related. We

won’t agree to it, even if Daddy did.”

His defiant words had pushed Yara’s anger over the edge.

I have waited for five years. I have plotted for five years. I had been thinking every moment and trying

my best to marry Samuel these five years. I thought the twins were my key to the Bowers family.

However, they turned out to be my obstacle.Vile spawns!I should’ve left them to burn to death with their

mother in the fire so they wouldn’t be my obstacle.

Yara clenched her fist tightly then slammed it on the table.

Her violent action startled the kitten in Sophia’s arms.

The kitten meowed from shock, then jumped away from Sophia’s arms to land beside Yara’s foot.

Yara jumped away from the kitten, disgusted with the dirty creature. A stabbing pain burst through her

back when she turned. She looked over her shoulder and realized her back slammed into the corner of

the dining table roughly. Tears filled her eyes from the pain.

“You!”

Feeling pissed and hurt, the threat holding her rationale snapped at that last trigger.

She stomped with angry strides to Sophia and grabbed the latter’s arm, holding her in place. She then

raised her hand, prepared to slap it across Sophia’s cheek.

Before her palm could fall, Kenneth’s furious yell came from the entrance.

“Stop! What do you think you’re doing to Sophia?”

With her hand still in the air, Yara wanted to complain to Kenneth.

But, this time, Sophia began bawling before she could even open her mouth.

“Great-grandpa, she wants to hit me!” Sophia screamed with all her might.

Sophia was truly terrified.

If Great-grandpa hadn’t arrived then, I would’ve to brace for Yara’s abuse. Recalling Yara’s cruel

expression, tears began to flow continuously from her reddish eyes.

Sophia wrapped her arms tightly around Kenneth’s leg with teary eyes.

“I’m scared of pain. Great-grandpa, save me.”

Sophia had always been like the bright, shining sun to Kenneth. His heart clenched, seeing the tears

flowing from her eyes.

“Don’t cry. There won’t be any pain. Now that I’m here, no one can hurt you.”

“I’m scared, Great-grandpa.”

“Don’t be.”

Kenneth picked up the wailing Sophia into his arms, gently patting her back, trying to calm her down.

Despite his gentleness with Sophia, he sent a cutting gaze at Yara.

Yara’s stomach lurched at his sharp gaze.

He must have misunderstood.

She opened her mouth to explain, but Kenneth simply whirled around and left the dining room with

Sophia.

“Isn’t it enough if you just focus on singling me out? But you even brought harm to Natalie. She got hurt

trying to protect me.” Franklin paused, then snorted, “I will pay you back for all the tricks you have

played in front of Great-grandpa.”.
