How Death Became My Rebirth

“Oh, my goodness! How could there be such people who wear fake items to attend the gala dinner? It’s so ridiculous!”

“| knew something seemed off when | saw her. The dress looks familiar and turns out to be Angel’s Wing. Is that a counterfeit?” “Do you even know the price of Angel's Wing? There’s only one piece in the world. And now Cassandra is wearing it. Do you think that’s possible?”

“She’s really uncultured and such a snob. She’s not worthy to wear Angel’s Wing!”

“| find it so embarrassing. Even if she wants to wear counterfeit items, she should at least choose a brand that’s not well-known. Wearing something so recognizable is just pure vain.”

“This is just the result of vanity. Since the Yates family doesn’t buy her good clothes and she’s not favored there, she can only turn to these knockoff items.”

Yulissa lowered her head and smiled.

She thought, ‘Cassandra, let's see how you turn this around!’

The person questioning Cassandra was Yulissa’s friend. Initially, the woman did not pay much attention to Cassandra, but Yulissa’s feigned grievance and tearful complaints ignited her anger. So, the former decided to teach the latter a lesson., Yulissa said, “Maybe we should let it go. Cassandra seems to have befriended some wealthy people. The gown she’s wearing is Angel's Wing. The person who can afford Angel’s Wing is not one we can afford to offend.”

“Hmph, who can’t we offend? That gown of hers is fake. | saw Angel’s Wing on display just yesterday!”

That was why the scene took place just now.

Kenneth’s cold gaze fixed upon the troublemaker. He thought, ‘She’s definitely asking

for trouble.

Jeremiah let out a contemptuous snort and looked at her. “Do you have any evidence to prove this Angel’s Wing is fake?”

He pondered, ‘Elaine designed this gown. It’s such a joke if she’s wearing a fake one.

“| saw Angel's Wing at the exhibition just yesterday. How could it suddenly appear on Cassandra? Everyone knows how pricey Angel's Wing is, so | bet even this fake one is

worth a good amount.”

With the help of Yulissa’s friend, Cassandra was now in a difficult situation with no easy

way out.

So, Yulissa stood up and professed gently and considerately, “Cassandra, you just got deceived by others. It’s okay. Come with me! | brought an extra gown for standby. Why don’t you change it?”

Once she suggested that, everyone praised her for her kindness and willingness to let bygones be bygones. She felt she had redeemed her reputation.

Cassandra stared at that group of ignorant people who staged the scene themselves, and her eyes were filled with contempt. “Do you have any evidence to prove that this is fake? If not, I'll have to sue you for defamation.” There was a strong undertone of warning despite her casual tone.

“Do we still need evidence for this? Can you even afford it?”

“Morgana, don’t say that.” Yulissa pulled the hand of Morgana Woolridge, her friend.

“Lisa, you're just too kind. That’s why she bullies you at home. She still doesn’t spare you even after she’s gone. Are you still going to speak up for her?”

Morgana wore a righteous and resolute expression. She thought, ‘Justice must be served for Yulissa today!’

Yulissa wondered, ‘Is she the legendary idiot?’ She was profoundly grateful for Mogana. The latter managed to articulate everything the former wanted to say. The former was determined to make everyone see Cassandra's malicious nature.

“Don’t say that. Cassandra just returned home and hasn’t gotten used to it yet. | just... | don’t feel aggrieved, and she has never bullied me.”

With that, she began to so b.

“Cassandra, look! Lisa has been defending you all this time. And what about you? You wear fake goods to embarrass yourself, and you even bully her. You’ve really gone too far. You must apologize to her!”

“Show me the evidence if you want to accuse me of wearing fake goods. Show evidence if you accuse me of bullying Yulissa.” “Everything Yulissa said is true. How dare you reckon it’s right for you to bully her!”

“Are you that stu pid? Why do you think whatever Yulissa tells is the truth? If she tells a judge that you’ve committed murder, does that mean you’re a murderer? Are you

brainless after growing up for more than 20 years, devoid of any ability to distinguish right from wrong? Which eye of yours saw me bully her? Did | say anything to her from start to end? Since she likes to cry, do | have to kneel and catch her tears? She’s like a goody two-shoes and disgusts everyone wherever she goes.”

That day was a charity gala organized by Lucas. Cassandra did not want the Yates family to ruin that event.

However, that bunch of losers insisted on hitting the muzzle. First, they said the gown was fake, and now they accused her of bullying Yulissa. If she really wanted to bully Yulissa, the latter would not have the chance to stand here and complain. Morgana argued, “Look at you, acting arrogantly and claiming innocence. Who will believe that!”

Leonardo was also furious. He could not believe Cassandra said such things about Yulissa, who indeed lacked manners. “Cassandra, do you have any manners? How dare you bully Yulissa publicly? Do you not take me seriously?”

He felt he was too soft-hearted. He always regarded her as his biological sister, so he could not bear to send her to Desert Island no matter what.

However, she actually got worse and bullied Yulissa right in front of him.

“Mr. Yates, don’t you know my parentage is unknown? | don’t know who gave birth to me. Don’t you know well that | have a mother who gave birth to me but no parents to raise me? | don’t think you should accuse me of my lack of manners. Your family doesn’t deserve to be treated well by me!”

Leonardo was momentarily speechless. It was true that Cassandra spent 18 years in the countryside and was indeed uneducated.

Yet, it was traitorous for her to announce her parentage was unknown.

“Silly girl, that’s nonsense. Aren’t you becoming my daughter tomorrow?” Sylvia walked out from backstage and gazed at Cassandra gently.

“I'm the one who taught her manners. Mr. Yates, are you blaming me?” Sylvia practically, had contempt and disdain written all over her face.

Leonardo could not utter a word.

Of course, he dared not do so. She was Lucas’ wife. He pondered, ‘That da mn Cassandra doesn’t even know how to speak up for me.’

Sylvia naturally shielded Cassandra behind her, which deeply moved the latter. The latter felt no one had ever protected her like that apart from her grandmother.

Cassandra suddenly felt Sylvia was shining brightly in her eyes. A bitter feeling surged within her, and she was affected emotionally.

“When | was inside, | overheard that this young lady claims Cassie’s gown was fake. Is that correct?” Sylvia’s gaze turned to Morgana.

Morgana thought it was an excellent opportunity, but her mother stopped her from speaking further. Her family could not afford to offend Lucas.

“Yes! Angel’s Wing is Elaine’s masterpiece. How can we allow counterfeit goods to circulate in the market?”

Yulissa and she admired Elaine the most. Every season, they bought their clothes from Thousand Dreams, a brand created by Elaine herself.

Sylvia had a look on her face as if she were dealing with someone ment ally disabled. She thought, “These losers, claiming to admire Elaine, don’t even recognize the real person standing before them.’

“Cassie is Elaine herself. She’s wearing a gown designed by herself. Any problem with that?” Her words were like a heavy bombshell, leaving everyone present stunned!

Yulissa’s originally proud face turned extremely pale in an instant!
