Chapter 147 Rivae Vargas


    "What are you doing here?"


    Alisa red at me impatiently. She even tightened her clothes around her.


    I was pretty envious of her figure, so I couldn''t help but nce at her. Alisa backed away from me while watching me warily.


    "Don''t you have your own apartment, Eva?"


    "But this ce is my home too. Oh dear, what should I do? I own half of the penthouse, after all."


    I shoved Alisa away in a fit of irritation. Leonard quickly released his grip on the doorway in order to let me enter the penthouse.


    Then, I turned around to look at Alisa. "Since you showed up at my home in that outfit, does that mean you''re going to do what I think you''re going to do?" Ever since I found out about Alisa''s tendency to act innocent, I started putting on an act as well.


    I realized that Alisa would do her best to destroy everything that I cared about. Seriously, what was up with her tendency topete with me?


    It was all thanks to my sarcastic words that Alisa decided to not overstay her wee. After all, she wasn''t shameless enough to hang around.


    After watching Alisa enter the elevator, Leonard closed the door immediately. "Eva, I put my life on the line just to defend our home from getting breached!"


    I stared at him,pletely speechless. "Yeah, I saw that. The thing is, our home almost got breached.


    Leonard pulled me into a strong hug. He kept sniffing me as well.


    "Why do you smell of disinfectant? Did you go to the hospital?"


    I didn''t expect Leonard''s sense of smell to be that keen. I quickly glossed it over, saying that the airport I was in was being disinfected. Of course, Leonard didn''t doubt my answer. When I brought Rivae''s incident up, he fell silent.


    "Randall hasn''t shown up in so many years. Not to mention, Alisa is adamant that Randall will never appear ever again. Something smells fishy here. Right after she investigated the whole thing, she came up with a verdict that Randall would never have gotten a hold of your fund. That''s why I forged the evidence."


    Over the past few days, Leonard had busied himself with forging the evidence rather than working. There were many personal funds being set up in Eucratia. For the time being, the Greens wouldn''t know if the evidence posed was legitimate. This was the value of my existence as well as the problem which frustrated Alisa the most.


    What frustrated me, on the other hand, was the fact that''I had to pick Rivae up tomorrow. It had been many years since west met, so I had no idea if she still recognized me, or if she realized that I''d be the one picking her up.


    Rivae had been away from the country for so many years, after all. So much had changed over the course of time. I had no idea just how much of her childhood she could still remember,


    I even changed into a white shirt and a pair of jeans before heading to the airport. That way, I''d look the same as I did when I was still a university student.


    Chapter 147 Rivae Vargas


    Thest time I had seen Rivae was during my university days. Hopefu this getup.


    she could still recognize me in


    What I didn''t expect was that Alisa would approach Rivae right away the moment thetter exited the airport while dragging her suitcase behind her.


    Both of them started chatting with each other animatedly. Clearly, they had known each other for a long time. In fact, they seemed to be friendly with each other.


    Alisa and Rivae were shocked to see me approaching them. Then, Alisa rolled her eyes at me.


    "Let''s go, Riva. Just ignore her."


    Rivae just stared at me, clearly stupefied. Suddenly, rage filled her eyes. "Eva Green? How dare you show your face in front of me, you fucking bitch! You and your family are all monsters!" "Riva, why are you acting like this? I''m here to pick you up! Your parents... Well, you should stay with me for the time being."


    I had no idea why Rivae was acting like this. She used to call me "Evie" in the past, after all.


    Rivae let out a cold huff. "Still pretending to be the good guy, huh? Your family is the reason behind my parents'' deaths! Why do you and your shitty family still get to live? Why, God, why?" Rivae hoisted me by my cor angrily. As I stared at her lip and nose rings, I felt that she hadpletely changed as well.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    "Riva, my parents are dead too." My eyes reddened at that statement.


    Rivae was stunned by my words too. Then, she released my cor angrily. "Serves you right!"


    She bumped against my shoulder forcefully before leaving with her suitcase in tow.


    On the other hand, Alisa shot me a cool nce. Then, she ran after Rivae. "Hold up, Riva! You should stay with me for the time being."
