No matter how thick-skinned Cara Preston was, she couldn't completely deny what she had just said in such a short time and in front of so many witnesses. So, she looked at Vera Xavier with an aggrieved expression and said, "Sister..."
"Don't call me sister!" Vera's expression turned cold and severe. "We're not related by blood in the slightest, and you are not my little sister. Every time you call me that, it makes me sick!"
After she finished speaking, she stared coldly at Cara Preston and said, "Every time something happens, you try to stir up trouble and sling mud at me. I used to put up with it, but not this time! I won't endure it anymore! Have you ever thought about what kind of situation your words would have put me in if I hadn't been with Nathaniel Nathan that night? My reputation would be in tatters, I'd be scorned by everyone, and I'd end up dying a miserable death! Cara Preston, is that the outcome you wanted to see?"
