Chapter 64

(Flora's POV)

I looked at Mable Bell in disbelief before me and asked her, "What are you talking about?"

"I made it very clear that you are too weak and had to learn some lessons to understand that there must be death between you and Leo. I did not do things about your mother. I just didn't stop them."

"Mable Bell, I've always regarded you as a friend! But you... don't tell me these things!" I didn't expect she would do such a thing behind my back.

She said with a smile, "That's because you're too naive, Flora. Even a friend has secrets, right? Your relationship with Leo was going so well that you're buying rings without telling me, right? Now that I'm frankly telling you the truth, you don't really think that I'm going to get revenge on Leo? Besides, isn't the reason why you agreed to live here because you want Leo to keep an eye on me?"

I was stunned when I heard that. Indeed, Mable Bell was right. I didn't want to live here before because I didn't want to get so close to George. Bu
