All Chapters of Karma Is My Name: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

When Chelsea didn't say anything, Clifford roared, "I know what you're like, Chelsea! Uncle Elliott will be in Jeriton for some time, so stay out of trouble while he's here! If you pull anything funny and bring shame to our family's reputation, even I won't let you off the hook!"Chelsea barked out an exasperated laugh at that. "What reputation does our family have? You ruined it the moment you started lying to Seraphine!"She would hire a few men to kill Seraphine that very night. That was how pissed she was!Elaine glared at Clifford. "You don't have to shout at Chelsea like that. She knows what she's doing!"She hurried after Chelsea, who had stormed off. The latter had graduated from a prestigious university, which was one of the reasons Stephen had allowed them to be reunited with the Johansens.Chelsea had been capable of getting into and graduating from a prestigious university. With that achievement under her belt and the Johansen family backing her up, she'd already taken

Elliott looked down at Seraphine and tightened his hold on her waist just a little. He held himself back from crushing her against him. A hint of devilish mischief glinted in his eyes as he looked into her spirited ones. Her memory wasn't half-bad—she still remembered him!"Don't walk around with your head down, sweet pea. You almost got knocked into," he said.Seraphine's heart was still racing from the close shave with the electric scooter. She pursed her lips slightly and took a deep breath before turning to look behind her. The two men had already turned tail, and she could only catch their backs.She exhaled before realizing she was still in Elliott's arms. She stammered, "T-Thanks for saving me."Her face burned as she pressed her lips together, trying to think of a way to ease the awkwardness. The lights outside the residential area were dim, but Elliott's presence and figure were too similar to the man who'd helped her in Johansen Tower's parking garage for her to get him w

Seraphine calmly met Clifford's angry gaze. She saw the venom deep within them, but she wasn't scared in the slightest. "So what if I did? I've only played you this once, but you fooled me for five years. Also, has your memory already gone bad when you're so young?"I told you last night that my mother is the only one who can formulate the medication. I knew Mrs. Johansen Senior kept picking on Elaine and that she had asthma. That's why I begged my mother to make the medication."Elaine warned me not to tell you about this, so I didn't. And at the time, I made it clear to her that only my mother knew the formulation for the medication—Elaine just didn't care. Now that my mother is dead, you're going to have to get someone else to formulate the medication for you."Seraphine knew Clifford was capable of getting someone else to formulate the targeted medication—Jim, for example. However, Jim was a monster. She actually wanted to know whether he had anything to do with Andrea's poisoni

Seraphine shook her numb hand, her voice icy as she said, "I've already done it. Do I look scared to you?"Chelsea's eyes burned with hatred when she heard how aloof Seraphine was. She glared daggers at the latter, thinking about how she'd changed.The old Seraphine was gentle and understanding. In other words, she'd been a pushover. But now, Seraphine had changed, whether in terms of her dressing or the way she carried herself.As more people gathered around them, Chelsea suddenly switched tacks and feigned grievance as she cupped her swollen cheek. "Do you think dressing more fashionably is going to help you win Clifford's heart, Seraphine?"You need to wake up—he won't ever fall in love with you because Clary is the one who holds his heart. You can kill me if you want, but I'm still going to be honest with you. Please stop harassing my brother!"Seraphine immediately knew what she was trying to do when she saw the growing crowd of spectators. She remained cool and composed as s

Chelsea fixed a malicious gaze on Seraphine and bared her teeth in a vicious smile. She looked uglier than a monster. "Stop trying to act so magnanimous, Seraphine. We all know how much you're in love with Clifford. It's too bad you've only been his simp from beginning to end."To think you even thought he would love you! Your story was destined to be a tragic one from the moment you humbled yourself for his sake!"Her words were hurtful, and they got to Seraphine. For a split second, her gaze turned dull as she looked at Chelsea. Pleased to see that she'd gotten Seraphine where it hurt, Chelsea smiled in satisfaction and left. She'd thought Seraphine no longer cared about Clifford, but it seemed she was wrong.One couldn't believe everything one heard, but the scene Chelsea had caused earlier still made some of the gossipers in the office give Seraphine odd looks.She didn't care. Her focus was on getting revenge for Andrea and herself. Valerie's investigation had covered all ba
