I forced myself to reach for the painkiller from the bedside table and swallowed it. Then, I waited quietly for the pain to ease.
I could hear Spencer gently coaxing Kate from outside the door. I couldn't help but cry non-stop.
Two days later...
Lying in bed and resting, I was half asleep. Then, I heard knocking and banging outside.
I put on my slippers and opened the door, only to see Kate directing two workers to remove the wallpaper.
"Stop it! What are you doing?"
I rushed over and pushed the workers away, but the wallpaper had been torn halfway.
I was furious. I had personally put the wallpaper up bit by bit, and it was Spencer's favorite style.
"How did you get in?"
Kate hurriedly went forward, trying to grab me, but I dodged away.
"Ava, Spencer said that the decoration of this house was outdated. He asked me to redecorate it according to my preferences."
"Don't worry, we will pay for the decoration... Your room can be decorated according to your preferences or keep it the same..."
"You are Spencer's sister, which means you are my sister too. We will take care of you together!"
I stared at her, gritting my teeth until I tasted the taste of blood.
I couldn't help but ask, "Did Spencer send you here?"
Kate raised her chin, looking proud. She said, "Of course, ask Spencer if you don't believe me!"
"I will do that, but for now... please leave my house immediately!"
I firmly drove away the two workers. Kate looked at me with hatred in her eyes.
When I went out to throw the garbage, I deliberately chose the time when Spencer got off work.
I didn't want Kate to laugh at me, nor did I want to cause unnecessary disputes.
For some reason, I didn't take the elevator. I walked down the safe staircase.
When I was about to reach the first floor, I heard a familiar voice. It seemed to be Spencer talking.
I tiptoed and peeked around the corner, only to see Spencer gently wiping Kate's tears.
"Don't cry. Your make-up is ruined! Of course, we should listen to your voice when it comes to the style of the decoration. The decoration style Ava chose isn't my thing. Besides, it is we two who will be living together in the future!"
Kate pouted and looked up at him. Acting like a spoiled child, he said, "I just don't like the way she looks. Can't we sell this house and buy a new one?"
Spencer suddenly frowned and impatiently said, "This house cannot be sold. You better not have this idea!"
