The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 803

Bonnie scoffs inwardly. Without the Dennis family footing the bill, Jade must be strapped for cash. If she doesn't have the money, she shouldn't be trying to get cheap cosmetic work done—probably just to hook a rich husband, Bonnie figures. How embarrassing.

Reading the absolute disdain on Bonnie's face, Jade easily guesses what the spoiled heiress is thinking. She seethes silently, wondering how she could possibly share blood with a dimwitted brat like this. They look nothing alike, each taking after their respective mothers, and Jade has always despised this emotionally stunted, arrogant princess.

But remembering her master plan, Jade swallows her pride. She has endured worse humiliations lately. Once she secures her rightful place in the Sinclair family, she will slowly but surely push this idiot out of the picture.

Taking a deep breath to suppress the rising bile of anger, Jade forces a tight, fragile smile. She softens her voice, injecting it with just the right amount of sorrow. "Bonnie, you're overthinking it. I really didn't get any work done. My face... Tara did this to me."

She acts deeply distressed, delicately tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear to hide the flash of cold malice in her eyes. Now is not the time to burn bridges. Bonnie might be an idiot, but she is still the legitimate daughter of the Sinclair family. Until Jade firmly plants her own feet in the estate, any misstep could ruin everything. She sneers internally: Enjoy your arrogance while you can, Bonnie. The higher you hold your head, the harder you'll fall. I will take back everything that belongs to me, piece by piece. Without the Sinclair family propping you up, let's see how long you survive in this circle.

"What? Tara beat you up?" Bonnie asks, her eyes widening in sheer shock.

"I can't believe she's that vicious! Does Danny know about this?" Bonnie demands.

"Probably not. And even if he did, he wouldn't believe it. He spoils her too much," Jade sighs, a bitter pang of genuine jealousy twisting her gut. She still can't fathom why the universe favors Tara so heavily, gifting her everything, including a flawlessly perfect man.

"Ugh, no way. I have to let Danny know that the woman sleeping next to him is a toxic snake!" Bonnie declares passionately. "He needs to see that Julianna is the only one truly meant for him!"
