Chapter 1 of After Rebirth, Tear Off The Illusory Mask

1

A loud crash.

Before I knew it, a glass of wine was thrown in my face, along with the food in front of me.

Ashley quickly stood firm. The sound of her panicked explanation and apology reached my ears.

"I'm sorry, Evelyn. I know you won't blame me."

After my rebirth, I now knew that Ashley Taylor was my fake sister.

Because I couldn't find my sister in the past few years, I doted on her very much out of guilt towards her.

She was spoiled, thinking that I wouldn't do anything to her.

I looked down at the large oil stain on my white dress and clenched my fists.

I got it.

It was because my father thought she had too little experience and would be deceived.

Instead of giving the family company to her to manage, he gave it to me since I already had two companies.

Therefore, Ashley wanted to see me make a fool of myself in front of so many people.

After she came back, I always tolerated her bad temper, so she thought I was a gentle person.

But now I knew that she was not my sister at all. I would never spoil her.

I sneered, picked up the glass of wine in front of me and poured it back over her head.

"It's okay, Ashley. I'll throw it back." I tilted my head and showed her a fake smile.

She exclaimed, not expecting me to do this.

Although my parents understood my temper, they thought I would always be so tolerant of Ashley and were scared by me.

They stood up and handed us tissues.

Kevin Sullivan and the people around me were so frightened that they dared not speak.

But he continued to act and walked over to me and asked me if I was okay, but his eyes were still looking at Ashley.

I rolled my eyes at him and threw my wine glass to the ground, making a sound of breaking glass.

I stood up and was about to leave. "I think I've finished this meal."

Ashley realized that I was really angry. She ran over to me in fear, grabbed my arm and tried to act coquettishly.

I shook her hand away in disgust. "Don't touch me."

When she heard what I said, she let go of my arm and said, "Evelyn, don't leave. Everyone is still here."

I turned my head and looked at her coldly. "Okay, I won't leave, then you go."

Ashley was frightened by my sudden change, turned around, and hugged my mother's arm.

"Mom, I was careless, but Evelyn splashed wine all over me."

Everyone in the room was silent and dared not speak.

My mother looked at me, then glanced sideways at Ashley, and told us to change our clothes quickly.

At night, I woke up in the middle of the night and found that there was no one by my bed.

I touched the pillow. It was cold. Kevin had been gone for a while.

Because of the stress, I take sleeping pills before going to bed. Tonight I pretended to take them in front of Kevin.

In my previous life, I was kept in the dark by this couple, and my real sister was hurt because of it.

Ashley had assumed my sister's identity.

In the end, my parents and I didn't notice it. And by the time we found out, it was too late.

I picked up my phone and tiptoed to Ashley's room.

The two people inside were entangled with each other passionately at the moment. It seemed that they had done this many times.

They were so skilled that it seemed like this was not my home but theirs.

I clenched my fists, leaned against the wall, opened my phone and found the camera, not forgetting to turn it to silent mode.

The camera was pointed at the crack in the door, just in time to capture their crime.

When I got up in the morning, I pretended to stay in bed for a while and went downstairs.

I was so kind that I gave them time to clean up.

Those two people were having an affair while having breakfast so blatantly. When I went downstairs, I saw Ashley feeding Kevin a piece of bread.

Their actions were very intimate.

I had installed surveillance cameras in every place in my house, including every corner.

After all, there were bad people in the house, so I had to be on guard.

When I saw the two people, I instantly lost my appetite and felt nauseous.

When Kevin saw me, he came over to me calmly, put his arm around my shoulders affectionately, and asked me what I wanted to eat.

Ashley said, "Evelyn, try this. What happened yesterday was all my fault. I cooked these. Try it."

I found it funny that she was so good at lying. "Really? Didn't our butler drive out early in the morning to buy these?"

Her expression froze for a moment, and she began to act coquettishly.

"I'm just kidding, Evelyn. Come and sit down. I bought the ones you like the most."

Of course, these were my favorite food. I asked the butler to buy it this morning.

The meal was over, and we could get down to business.

I wiped my mouth and said, "Kevin, you must go to work as usual from today on. You must be on time and not be late or leave early. We cannot break the company's original rules just because of you."

Kevin was confused by my sudden change, but he still nodded and agreed.

I suddenly thought of something. "Oh, right, didn't you say that you don't want special treatment and want to be treated equally? So according to your academic qualifications, you should start from the grassroots level and be an intern first."

I also told him not to say he was related to me in the company, otherwise others would think he was getting special treatment.

Kevin couldn't stand it, because I had promised him that he would be the manager when he went to the company.

He was anxious.

"Who will be the manager then? It will take a while to find a suitable person. For the sake of the company, I am willing to work a little harder."

After he finished speaking, I saw him and Ashley exchange glances.

He pretended to be responsible, but I wanted to expose his ugly face.

I resisted the urge to slap him, but I still frowned at him and said, "It's none of your business who gets the job of manager."

Finally, I finished and got up to leave.

When I got to the entrance, I turned around and said to Kevin, "The company has a dormitory for employees. Move there today. Stop living in the villa."

At noon, a large bouquet of flowers and a necklace were delivered to my office.

Kevin thought I was angry, which was why I said those angry words today. He sent me a message.

[Baby, don't be angry. If I do something wrong, just come back and beat me. I hope you like the flowers and gifts.]

I opened the jewelry box and saw a familiar necklace. He had given it to Ashley, but she didn't want it anymore, so he gave it to me.

I just threw it into the trash can and asked my assistant to throw the flowers away as well.

I turned on my phone and contacted the butler to ask Kevin to leave quickly. I didn't want to see him when I got home from get off work.

These two people living in my house, eating my food, and doing all those disgusting things.

Afterwards, they set up to seize my property and kicked me and my family out of our home, leaving us with no food to eat.

They also made me hurt my own sister. I want them to go to hell immediately.
