24. Evil Plan of Mirza Couple

You can't stop the girl from going
You can't stop the world
from knowing
The truth will set you free, oh
You can't stop the girl from going

Riya enunciated through gnashed teeth, "It doesn't matter who I am because you are no better than me! What basis did daddy have to give you the best of everything? Why? How is that fair‽"

"That's simple, because I'm his real daughter." Tahera replied matter-of-factly. It highlighted how unreasonable Riya was acting.

"That is why I hate you!" Riya's eyes were burning with rancor, they flashed crazily as she said, "No worries, I have a plan ready to destroy you. Can you tell what it is?"

Compared to her, Tahera was as graceful as ever.

"I do not, but do tell." Tahera suddenly moved in for an embrace.

However, in mid-movement, she stopped, hugged her stomach and wailed grievously, "Sis, please don't get mad at me. It's all my fault, sis, please forgive me..."

Before Riya would finish her sentence, she screamed and collapsed to the floor as if kicked by a violent force.

She held onto her stomach with a tortured expression and howled in a fit of panic, "My stomach, someone, please help me, my stomach, it's very painful..."

Thanks to her, a lot of guests were looking their way. Based on the show and tell, they thought Tahera had shoved Riya to floor and they were shell-shocked.

Riya's high-pitched wailings gathered more attention and eventually the whole ballroom was watching the skit go down. Of course, they didn't know it was a skit, they stared wide-eyed with horror at what they thought Tahera had done. After all, Riya's acting was way too convincing...

Riya's wailing also attracted her husband's attention. As if hearing his cue, Selim bolted over in a flash.

He knelt down beside his wife and asked worriedly, "Riya, what happened to you? Who did this?"

Who did this? There was no one else standing near her beside Tahera. Riya snuck a glance at Tahera before clutching her husband's arm, speaking in a hurried, flustered manner, "Honey, I'm sure Sis didn't mean it. We can worry about that later, I'm more concerned... about our child..."

Child‽ Everyone in hearing range was spooked. If Tahera had hurt Riya's baby fetus in any way, she could be arrested for child destruction. After all, it had the potential to be a life. She could be jailed if convicted.

Selim's expression changed expectedly. He glared at Tahera viciously, his voice dripping with malice as he said, "You pushed my wife because you want to kill my child?"

"Honey, I told you Sis didn't mean it. It was an accident..." Riya begged her husband on Tahera's behalf.

"Riya, you don't need to defend her. She has been bullying you ever since you're a kid and now because she knew you're pregnant, she made you miscarry because she can't bear to see you have something good in your life. Such an evil b*tch! Someone call the police! I demand justice be swift on this heartless woman!" Selim cursed.

"Honey..." Riya tried to plead some more but was interrupted by Selim, "Darling, I love that you're a benevolent woman who believes in people's kindness but she has attempted on our child's life. Isn't that enough to tell you about her true nature?"

Riya went silent immediately and looked away with disappointment. It was as if she suddenly saw the ugly truth about Tahera and was incapable of defending her anymore...
