The shoe on the right is done! Hana's joy showed on her face, the crowd was still holding their breath, not surprised that so many people were wearing the right shoe. With one more shoe left, Sarah hesitantly raised her foot but dared not put it on. She's afraid something terrible will happen, she'll be fine but Hana doesn't deserve to be involved because of her. Seeing that her sister was uncertain and worried, Hana impatiently bent down to use force, forcing Sarah to put on her shoes.
Knowing that she can't resist Hana, her reason can't overcome weakness, Sarah closes her eyes and surrenders, whatever comes will come, and she will accept it with the strongest mentality.
"Just now! Did you see?"
Hana's scream made Sarah startle her eyes open, the crowd stared at her with wide eyes.
How is it possible? It's a strange thing to believe. It shouldn't be that surprising, it's clear that the distance from the crowd to the pool is also about 5 meters, visibility is limited plus no ghost dares to come forward to take a closer look, moreover, Hana has loudly affirmed It's okay even if there's doubt, it's nothing to worry about. What these people care about is Zane being disfigured by what he did, not who is telling the truth and who is lying.
From the outside, it seems to fit perfectly, but it's obviously not, Sarah is the clearest of all, her feet are uncomfortable in the left shoe. The noise hummed again, everyone wondered why two girls could fit in the same pair of shoes, and they were curious to know what Zane would do next? Sarah looked at the crowd bewildered, extremely confused, she really didn't want to deceive anyone any more.
"No..."
"You see, my sister is the real Cinderella. This girl is just lucky to have her shoes on."
Hana realized her sister's intentions and she immediately stopped her when Sarah confessed everything.
"Hana," Sarah screamed, her eyes begging her sister to stop, there would be no chance to turn back to the shore.
Hana didn't listen, looked proudly at the crowd, then suddenly she turned to glare at Clara - who was looking at her with indifference.
"What are you looking at? Shameless, who are you to steal Zane from my sister?" Hana snapped back to get everyone's attention. As expected, the crowd silently looked at the actors on the stage. At this point, Hana decided to take off Clara's mask. She wanted to see who had the guts to fight for the prince with her sister.
"Say something? Why don't you speak up? Huh! still wearing a mask, who do you think you are, so mysterious? Why should you cover your face, will you be able to hide your despicable actions? ?"
With that, Hana aggressively rushed to grab Clara's mask, a decisive, rough move, she pulled it off to reveal Clara's ugly face with her ugly birthmark.
Too suddenly, neither he nor she had time to react to prevent what happened, the crowd gaped at the girl standing behind Zane, Clara immediately lowered her face, extremely embarrassed and humiliated.
"It's you," Hana exclaimed in surprise, her fiery anger exploding even more.
"So it's you, I get it." Hana ignored Clara again and turned to the crowd: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's clear now, she's just a shameless imposter."
Hana pointed her finger at Clara accusingly. Her voice was as steely as what she said was believable. Knowing that the crowd was still in disbelief, she continued to take off Sarah's mask. Without warning, Hana suddenly reached out and grabbed Sarah's mask, with a quick and decisive moment she jerked, causing the mask to fall, revealing Sarah's beautiful face.
One was in awe, some immediately recognized Sarah as the girl Zane had claimed to be having an affair with.
"Do you have anything else to say, Clara? I didn't expect you to be such a vile, vile person." Hana turned to look at the crowd, loudly cursing and insulting her: "Do you know what kind of person this girl is? Her name is Clara Jane, an ugly, rural girl, everyone looks at her scars. The indigo on her face is enough to understand, she is the daughter of our father, my family is kind enough to take care of her, let her stay after her father died, but she doesn't know how to carry Thank you, five times seven times trying to harm my sister, now pretending to be Cinderella so that she can take her place. Do you find her disgusting, despicable?"
Hana's tone was sharp, contemptuous of Clara.
"Hana! Stop talking." Sarah intervened.
"Why stop it, someone like her isn't worth your pity." Hana pushed Sarah's hand off her body and approached Clara. Regardless, my sister lost her balance and almost fell to the floor.
"Clara! You're so despicable. If I were you, I wouldn't have the face to look at other people's faces. What's the point of you living in this world when you're both ugly and cruel at the same time, you? How long will it take to hurt Sarah? It's best if you die for me." Crazy Hana yelled at Clara.
In response, Clara stepped back and silently resigned. She was used to these horrors. She knew she was useless, but she thought she had reason to give in.
"Hana." Sarah desperately hugged her sister and pulled her away. Then she looked at everyone apologetically: "Everyone please forgive, my sister was drunk and what she said is not true."
"I sincerely apologize to you two." She bitterly looked at the two people, one was silent and did not object. A killing ferocity as if wanting to eat people alive.
"I'm not drunk, you better not get involved in this." Hana roughly pushed Sarah and this time, out of luck, she fell into the panic of the crowd.
Everyone was witnessing a shameful sight. After this incident, surely the Hana sisters had water to dig a grave, but they could be at peace before the cruel words of the world.
"Say something?" Hana knew there was nothing that could be done. Zane quickly turned to Clara again, she asked her and then as if she remembered something, she quickly turned to look at everyone: "Yes, I forgot about pepper, there's one more thing I haven't told everyone, Ms. I'm dumb. Not only is she ugly, but she's also cruel, and she can't even talk. She's also very pitiful, but don't show pity for her because of that, it's all just pretending, everyone doesn't let her cheat."
Hana said loudly and repeated many times, even pointing directly at her face: "You are so pitiful, Clara."
"Have you said enough?" Zane glared at Hane indignantly.
"I'm not scolding enough." Hana countered, "She deserves to be punished for her despicable and despicable acts."
"You'd better keep your mouth shut for me." He cried out involuntarily, many people were startled by him.
Zane showed his explosive rage. He prevents Hana from getting close to Clara.
Undeterred, despite Zane's attitude, Hana still showed a defiant face to challenge him.
"And you." Hana turned the target to attack him again: "Are you feeling guilty when you mistake Cinderella for her? Are you expecting forgiveness from Sarah, just apologize sincerely, I trust Sarah will forgive you generously. You should be grateful that I helped you see the real face of that liar. Without me, you would have been deceived, can't blame you, because of her. I'm just too crafty, a fox that's both evil and sinister."
Hana hasn't stopped yet. She just hit and rubbed, so cunning! But the cruel words are uttered from the beautiful mouth, the face is also good-looking, and the crowd somewhat sympathizes with the feeling of a sister when suffering injustice, but for those who understand and know, In fact, Hana's actions deserve to be condemned and accused of slandering and defaming other people's honor.
"That's enough, while I'm nice, shut your mouth and get out of here." Zane coldly asked Hana.
"What are you going to do, Zane? tell everyone how are you going to handle her? or you... don't tell me you don't believe what I say?"
Hana borrows heat from the crowd to force Zane to punish Clara.
"That's right, I don't believe a word you say, immediately apologize to her for the mockery just now, or I will make you unscheduled in prison."
He threatened, his voice hoarse, and Sarah gulped as she looked at him hoping it was just a threat. On the other hand, Hana was completely indifferent to his statement.
"In the end, how could she make you lose your sanity? Do you think I'm that easy to bully? sorry but you look down on me too much, I'm not as gentle and resigned as my sister. You don't believe it. Why don't you try asking her if what I said is true or not? And how dare you do that right in front of my sister, dare to defend, defend her?"
"Hana please stop, I'm begging you, you've gone too far."
Never had she cursed herself like this, she was useless, weak, and cowardly. She didn't have the courage to put an end to the farce that was going on.
"Why, you don't dare to ask? Or is this your intention? It was clear that from the very beginning you intended to leave my sister when you knew our family fell into bankruptcy, so you made a trick hey, get a girl at the party, give her some money to pretend to be cinderella? you really don't know if she's a fake or you're just pretending not to know ."
What's the matter again? Zane is in a dilemma, his honor is about to go up in smoke. He stands between two choices, one is to force Clara to do what she doesn't want, and the other is to lose his honor when he silently admits that Hana is right, he broke up with Sarah because her family just had a difficult time.
As always, Clara showed the courage to face all bad things with a cold, somewhat indifferent look. Perhaps her life has encountered too many unfair, unjust and indignant things, so she looks very calm. Although there was a slight fluctuation inside, she looked at him clearly and realized the concern he was carrying. She wanted him for her on the one hand and didn't want him to sacrifice many things for her. She was afraid. pay off his debt.
Everyone in the guild realized that Hana intentionally pushed Zane into an awkward position. She wanted everyone present to have an excuse to laugh at Zane's unwise actions.
"Am I right? It turns out that Zane Uchiha is just that bad of a man."
Hana continued her attack.
"Zane! The more you hesitate, it just proves you're a coward who doesn't dare to face your mistakes. She's just a fake, after all, so you have to protect her, while Sarah being the one who is grateful to you, you have paid her back for your own sake. Is the price you have to pay worth it? think carefully. Be careful, Zane."
After a few moments of silence, he turned to look at Clara. Obviously, he has made a decision, Zane is not forcing Clara because of Hana's insults, he is for her, and for himself, Zane really wants Clara to bravely refute Hana's accusations, he wonders if you don't have a bit of resentment, why do you always keep quiet when people insult and insult you? Last time too, when he was pressed and accused of bullying Sarah, she just kept quiet and left. Why don't you answer or justify? Are you really noble or a fool? It's confusing, sometimes he detests her kindness, not her weakness, everyone thinks so, not only him. Her honesty sometimes makes others misunderstand her as a weak person, unable to protect herself. In order to end this peacefully, he was forced to take action, as long as Clara objected and denied Hana's words, everything would be resolved.
In a gentle voice, he began.
"Clara. Are you really what this girl says?"
Clara looked at him, truly stunned. Obviously, he knew she wasn't like that, but he still deliberately complied with Hana's wishes. Zane slowly approached her, his eyes were so scary as if he was cornering his prey. Clara unconsciously stepped back, keeping a safe distance from him.
"Answer, if it's not true or says something against her, justify yourself, tell everyone here, that's not the truth, that I'm not a coward, a liar. "
Clara still maintained her attitude, neither denying nor admitting anything. Just don't know how to handle this unexpected situation?
Didn't expect Zane to do it like it was real, even though Clara thought through the fact that Zane would come up with this solution, but she couldn't believe he did it, his expression and attitude were so genuine, he seemed to be angry when being deceived, Zane just wants to force Clara to get rid of the fear and weakness she has built up over the years, he really wants Clara to tear the cover, step out bravely and loudly scold the person who smeared her. dishonor your honor.
His strong hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, and pulled Clara closer, he repeated the sentence again, his eyes angry.
"I asked her, are you really that kind of person?"
Zane snapped, startling Sarah. Before his determination, although she didn't want to Clara had no other choice, but a nod of recognition, Zane couldn't believe her eyes, Clara had just admitted those slanders were true. Why don't you deny or refute?
A common question of all. Why did Clara end up acting like that?
Sarah did not expect that until this moment, Clara still wanted to protect her to the end, it seems that Clara had a calculation, considering the current situation, Sarah has more disadvantages than her, tomorrow she will leave and no one will mention it. all this, and if bad luck comes to Sarah, she will lose everything. Not to mention she just wants to protect Zane's honor and dignity, if she denies the accusations against Hana, it means that Zane is right as Hana judges, he deliberately staged everything to kick Sarah. The reason is that he is afraid Sarah is a burden, and he will have to solve the troubles of Sarah's family. Although Clara knows that someone will believe him, and the truth will be clear later, the world's tongue is a very scary thing, it can cause Zane's future to be buried by the scandal of this love scandal.
"Does that mean you're an imposter? you're not Cinderella?" The shocked Zane confirmed again.
Clara did not hesitate and nodded immediately. She quietly lowered her head not wanting to look into his eyes, she was afraid she could not stand it. Zane's heart just skipped a beat, Clara was really too honest.
"Is it really like that?" Zane asked for the third time.
"I'm not Cinderella." Clara decisively sketched the answer with a finger gesture. Then she bowed again. Clara wants to get out of here but doesn't know how.
"Then this doesn't mean anything to you anymore, does it?"
Clara raised her head and looked up, Zane had somehow reached into her pocket and pulled out her lanyard. He showed it to Clara. She immediately recognized this as a memento of her mother. What she didn't expect was that he would pick up this rope.
Clara was touched with trembling hands and tried to take the rope, but he shouted angrily.
"You're not Cinderella."
Clara startled her trembling hand and stood still. With that, Zane raised his hand and threw the rope into the pool. Clara panicked, followed his hand, then immediately jumped into the pool to everyone's shock.
Zane was dumbfounded and could only watch Clara slowly sinking. It was not until consciousness returned to Sarah that she cried out in horror.
"Clara can't swim, she's afraid of water."
Immediately, a figure jumped into the cold lake.
Everyone held their breath and waited.
