My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 247

Chapter 247: She Knows
At the Perez mansion, Viviana was eating dinner with her family. Her mother glared at her father with a side-eye.

Her father acted nonchalantly and was still digging into his food. That was how her family had been.

Her younger brother who was still in middle school couldn’t care less. He only focused on his studies and didn’t give a damn if the family broke apart after what their father had done.

“I’m going to study,” Nathan said, pushing back his chair, stood up, and left without another word.

“You see what you’ve turned this family into?” Mrs Perez questioned Theodore with an evident scowl on her face. “The child doesn’t talk much anymore. It’s always study and study. He’s trying to occupy his head so he can’t think of what’s happening to us.”

“Isn’t that a good thing that he focused on his studies?” Theodore questioned back.

“You’re unbelievable. You don’t even sound sorry for what you did,” Mrs. Perez spat, rage evident on her face now.

Out of irritation, Theodore dropped his fork which made a loud clicking sound in the dining room.

“That was many months ago. And Michelle ran away or disappeared. We don’t even know what happened to her. You need to let things go,” he said, shrugging as if cheating on his wife wasn’t a big deal which only fueled his wife’s anger.

“You have some nerve to demand forgiveness. You got that bitch pregnant for goodness sake!”

“And she lost the child…” Theodore interjected.

Viviana who was sitting across the table rubbed her forehead in frustration since it seemed they’d forgotten she was sitting right across them.

“Mom, Dad, you two need to calm down,” she bit out, tired of the drama that always occurred in the mansion every passing day.

“You tell your mother that!!” Theodore ordered.

Out of annoyance, Mrs. Perez took her napkin, wiped her mouth, and pushed her chairs to stand up.

“Are you sure that Michelle disappeared? Because I think you hid her away from me because you’re very much aware of what I’m capable of doing?” She questioned, her eyes shooting daggers at her husband.

“I didn’t hide her,” Mr. Perez replied, his tone filled with exhaustion as he couldn’t wait for the matter to die down already.

Mrs. Perez snorted as a grin pulled on her lips, obviously not believing what her husband had just said.

Instead of coming up with other accusations, she left the dining room, leaving Viviana and her father together to eat.

“I think it’s time for me to take a vacation until this matter has died down,” Theodore said.

Viviana released a long tired sigh.

“You know father, I want to take revenge on Anastasia for what she’d done to our family. Are you in?” She asked all of a sudden.

Theodore’s eyes narrowed, while his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

“Don’t act like you don’t understand what I mean now. I’m sure you’re mad at her for what she did to you. You’re influential and even if you don’t want to accept it, that scandal affected you deeply. So, because of that, I want us to take our revenge on her,” she finished.

“What’s your plan?” Theodore asked, sounding interested.

Anastasia arrived at the set, and from the gate, she could already feel the heavy stares on her.

Due to the video that was released, people were starting to call her arrogant, selfish, and ill-mannered towards newbies she should take under her wing and mentor to be just like her.

“Because she gained popularity in under a year, she thinks she’s better than all of us.”

“Tell me about it! Just look at her acting like she can’t hurt a fly. She can crush someone’s dreams and still hold that smile on her face as if she’s the sweetest person.”

“I bet her husband was the one to buy a way for her to get a movie role for this movie. She’s just an empty barrel with no talent.”

Anastasia tried to ignore them, but her path was immediately blocked by a daring one.

“Look at all that makeup she piled on to make herself look pretty, just to cover up the fact that she’s a green snake hiding in the grass,” one of the cast members sneered, stepping closer to Ana.

She placed her index finger on Ana’s face, intending to wipe off the makeup, but her expression shifted to confusion when not a trace of foundation stained her finger. Ana’s flawless complexion remained untouched, leaving the woman baffled and speechless.

“You think I’m like you who wears all that makeup but still ends up looking like a clown in front of everyone?” Anastasia finally spoke.

“How dare you…?”

“Oh! Did I forget you act like a clown also?” Anastasia’s tone was completely mocking which embarrassed the actress.

“You have the mouth to speak. You act like a good sweetheart in front of everyone and go behind our backs to insult newbie actresses?”

“Please stop! All of you misunderstood the video.” They suddenly heard someone speak.

When they turned to see who it was, Diana appeared in front of them.

“You don’t have to defend this woman!” The actress snapped.

“I’m not defending her or anything. I’m just telling the truth.” Diana glanced between the actress and Anastasia who wore a rather calm expression as if she couldn’t bring herself to be bothered about the situation. “Ms. Anastasia and I were just talking and someone intentionally recorded only the part she scolded me to frame her,” she added.

Their eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

“And who could that be?”

“As far as I know, it could be any of you since you’all don’t like me. But whoever it is should better take down that video before director Jeunes arrives. It would be a shame if that person is disgraced in our presence, don’t you think Viviana?”

Viviana jolted in fear when she heard Anastasia call her name all of a sudden.

“Y-yes, that’s right,” she agreed.

‘Does she know I was the one who uploaded the video,’ Viviana wondered.

She stared at Anastasia whose smile slowly crept on her lips.

‘Yeah, she knows.’
