Chapter 593

Why Do You Hate Me So Much

She turned to look at Julian Sterling. If she didn't say some things now, maybe she'd never get another chance.

Megan Sterling suddenly laughed. "Hahaha, why do I hate you so much? Because you have the thing I want most but can never have. I'm jealous of you!"

Ruby Sterling's brows knitted tightly together. She didn't quite understand what Claire Bennett had that Megan Sterling wanted but couldn't get.

By rights, in terms of status, Megan Sterling was also a daughter of the Sterling family. Compared with the Sterling family, Claire Bennett's Bennett family still fell a bit short. There was absolutely nothing Megan Sterling needed to envy Claire Bennett for.

Just as Ruby Sterling was racking her brains and getting nowhere, Claire Bennett understood.

She looked deeply into Megan Sterling's eyes, and in an instant, she found reasons for everything Megan Sterling had done to her before.

Putting it together with what Megan Sterling had said to her before, she guessed the truth of the matter.

Megan Sterling liked Julian Sterling!

Claire Bennett looked at Megan Sterling and said in a low voice, "You like Julian Sterling?"

Ruby Sterling's heart gave a violent jump, and she looked at Megan Sterling in horror. She felt Claire Bennett's guess was truly terrifying, but what was even more terrifying was that if Claire Bennett was right, then it would be even worse.

Megan Sterling no longer had anything she felt was too shameful to admit. She let out a cold laugh. "So what if I do?"

She laughed and said, "You're not worthy of standing beside Julian Sterling at all. You even dated Ethan Sterling before. You're a dirty woman, so how could you possibly be worthy of Julian Sterling? That's why I had to do everything I could to get rid of you."

As soon as Megan Sterling's words fell, Ruby Sterling sucked in a sharp breath and stared at Megan Sterling with wide, shocked eyes.

Did she even know what she was saying?

Claire Bennett looked at Megan Sterling and said, "You like Julian Sterling, so you were jealous of me, and that's why you did everything you could to target me. I could never figure out before why you deliberately went after me. You even laid hands on Grandpa Sterling just to frame me. Now I know. But even if something happened to me, you still wouldn't be able to be with Julian Sterling. Your relationship would never be accepted by society."

A gloomy look surfaced in Megan Sterling's eyes. She had never even thought about being with Julian Sterling.

Everything she had done was for Julian Sterling. As long as Julian Sterling lived well, she would be satisfied.

Ruby Sterling still found it a little hard to accept this matter. She felt that Megan Sterling liking Julian Sterling was especially bizarre, and it even shocked her.

Only then did she come back to herself and say, "Yeah... Megan Sterling, what exactly are you thinking? How could you like my brother? Don't you know that he's... he's your..."

At that point, Ruby Sterling couldn't go on.

"Just as I thought, an ungrateful little bastard that can't be raised right!" Old Master Sterling snorted lightly. He looked at Megan Sterling and asked, "About poisoning me, did you do it yourself, or was Fifth behind it, instructing you?"

Megan Sterling shook her head and said with a defeated expression, "I did it all by myself. It has nothing to do with my father."

Even though what she had done had already been exposed, she still had no intention of dragging Theodore Sterling down with her. She took everything onto herself.

After hearing Megan Sterling's words, the coldness in Old Master Sterling's eyes finally eased.

Fortunately, it wasn't that the Sterling family had truly become so utterly heartless. It was only done by Megan Sterling, a woman with no blood relation whatsoever to the Sterling family. At least that gave him a bit of comfort.

At that moment, the hospital room door suddenly opened, and Theodore Sterling strode in quickly. After walking up to Megan Sterling, he raised his hand and viciously slapped her across the face. "You wretched girl, how dare you do something like this? You're going to be the death of me! Back then I picked you up from the orphanage and made you a daughter of the Sterling family, so you never had to worry about food or clothes. What more could you possibly be dissatisfied with? Why would you do this?"

After Theodore Sterling finished speaking, he dropped to his knees with a thud in front of Old Master Sterling and cried with snot and tears running down his face, "Dad, this has nothing to do with me. I had no idea this wretched girl would do something like this to you. You have to believe me! I'm really innocent."

After Theodore Sterling learned that the person who poisoned Old Master Sterling was Megan Sterling, he was extremely terrified, afraid that he himself would be implicated.

Old Master Sterling knew this matter had nothing to do with Theodore Sterling. He waved his hand and said, "Enough. You don't need to stand there sniveling in front of me."

Only after hearing Old Master Sterling's words did Theodore Sterling finally let out a sigh of relief.

Old Master Sterling snorted coldly. "A son's faults are the father's failure to teach! Megan did something like this, and you bear a great deal of responsibility too. You didn't teach her properly, and that's what led her to do something like this."

"Dad, I know I was wrong. I failed to teach her properly." How could Theodore Sterling dare say anything else? He immediately agreed again and again.

Following the exchange between Theodore Sterling and Old Master Sterling, everyone in the room finally learned that Megan Sterling was not actually a child of the Sterling family, but had been adopted by Theodore Sterling from an orphanage. No wonder she would harbor thoughts like that!

Very soon, with everything exposed, Megan Sterling was taken away.

The atmosphere in the room was still heavy. Everyone was lost in their own thoughts, and no one spoke. It was impossible to tell what they were thinking.

Claire Bennett's brows furrowed slightly. She didn't know why, but she kept feeling like this matter wasn't over yet, like something had been overlooked.

Was this matter really done by Megan Sterling alone?

Then how had Ethan Sterling happened to seize Sterling Group at exactly this time?
