Chapter 3 Missing Rose Earrings
"Stephanie made me lose my virginity. How could you even justify that?" Margaret replied in a
trembling voice.
"If you're angry, just direct it at me. Don't try to frame Stephanie for things she did not do," Zachary said
unpleasantly.
Margaret felt disgusted and vented, "Really? Then I wish the both of you, both sl*t and swine, a long-
lasting relationship!"
She turned around and left with her dignity intact. She returned to her room, and then slammed the
door shut.
Margaret felt as though all her strength had been used up entirely. She fell weakly onto her bed.
Staring at the snow-white ceiling, cold tears flowed out of her eyes and down her ears.
Margaret reached out to touch her ears, only to find that the earring on her left ear was gone.
She walked to the mirror and realized that there was indeed only one earring left.
These rose-shaped earrings were self-designed and of her own creation, so she liked them very much.
But, she had lost one.
And she had no idea where she left it.
Margaret took the remaining piece of earring off and carefully placed it in the box.
She wiped off her tears, took a deep breath, and went to the bathroom.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She showered and rinsed herself thoroughly. Only then did her senses slowly return to her, and she
could only smile in vain about everything that had happened.
Time went by in a blink of an eye. A month had passed and it was now morning.
Margaret examined the test paper she was holding. She pursed her lips and flushed the toilet bowl.
She was pregnant but she did not suffer any mood swings. Margaret decided to give birth to the baby.
The reason being, this was her own child.
Margaret's father, William Simons was surely not going to approve her decision, so she had to keep it a
secret.
However, the truth could never stay hidden forever. In the end, the Simons eventually found out about
the child's existence.
William yelled in disgust, "Margaret! Why did you get yourself pregnant before getting married?!"
Margaret's fingertips trembled but she still managed to stare ironically at her father. "What's wrong with
getting pregnant before marriage? After all, you did have an affair with someone else as a married
person."
Margaret and Stephanie were not biological sisters. Stephanie was the child of William and a house
servant.
Margaret's mother was the daughter of an elite family with a good background. If it was not for
Margaret's mother, William would still be a small-time employee.
However, this iron lady had committed suicide by jumping off a building a year ago.
Margaret was in deep grief from losing her mother. When William found out Stephanie's true identity, he
brought her into the Simons family.
This has caused Margaret and her mother, Melissa, to become jokes among the upper-class society.
"Shut up!" William snapped as Margaret's words reminded him of his past. It reminded him of the days
when he was teased by others who told him that his wife was the one who paved his road to success.
Thus, because of Melissa, he never liked Margaret. She was too much like her mother.
On the other hand, the obedient and well-mannered Stephanie brought him a sense of satisfaction for
being worshipped like a father.
Stephanie reprised, "Margaret, I know you still blame me for snatching daddy's love away, but you can't
do something like this. It is way too embarrassing for the Simons family!"
Margaret was so furious that she gnashed her teeth. "Shut the f*ck up, Stephanie. If it wasn't for your
drug..."
Before she could finish her words, William slapped Margaret's face hard. "How can you blame your
sister when you are the one with a messy, private life? I don't have such a toxic daughter like you. Get
out of here. Get out and don't you ever return to the Simons family."
Margaret covered her face. No one believed her. Zachary didn't, and neither did her biological father.
They only believed Stephanie.
"Fine, I'll go." Margaret turned around insolently and walked towards the gate. She left with firm, yet
lonely footsteps.
