32: Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Kate returned to her apartment after a long day at work. This was the first time that she struggled  to drag her feet across the corridor from the elevator to her apartment door.  1

"Ugh, I can't wait to just throw myself on the bed and sleep for a few hours," Kate told herself. "Wait, maybe I should order some healthy food first, I don't want my baby to starve, or eat some junk food. I'm eating for two now, I need to think of my child too."

Kate unlocked the door with her fingerprint. The first thing she did was to kick her heels away and then walk to the living room, where she could at least throw herself on the sofa.

But the moment she walked into the living room, she saw a woman she couldn't face right now.

Because she reminded her of all of her failures. All of those years were spent pampering and spoiling her which then turned her into an unbearable young woman. One who dared betray her own sister by sleeping with her brother-in-law.

Kate's eyes peered at the sight of Erin sitting on the sofa.  Her sister leisurely placed her feet on the coffee table while switching the channels on the TV, Erin acted as if nothing had happened between them.

"What are you doing here?" Kate asked in a cold tone, not bothering to beat around the bush. 

Erin turned her head to the source of the voice and smiled when she saw her big sister, "Welcome back, Sis! How was work today? Did you bring something home for me?" 

Erin greeted Kate as if everything was as it once was and there was nothing wrong between them. It was as if Kate hadn't seen her with breasts dangling out while straddling Matt's lap like she was a whore he had picked up at a street corner. 

Erin didn't even bother to act ashamed or even conceal the fact that she was Matt's mistress and that he had been cheating on her own sister with her. It was a complete degradation to Kate, and Kate couldn't look at her little sister the same way anymore, she was a completely different person now. 

"Cut the crap, Erin. Why are you here and how did you get in?"

Erin's big smile slowly subsided when she realized that her sister wouldn't forgive her for sleeping with Matt. She sighed and tossed the remote on the coffee table.

She put her hands behind her head and slumped deeper into the sofa, "Don't be so tense, Sis. You told me the password to unlock the door. How could you forget that you basically allowed me to live in any of your apartments as long as it suited me?"

Kate's jaw tightened. She forgot to change the password on all of her locks. She thought after that night, this little shit wouldn't dare to show her face in front of Kate anymore.

Who would've thought that Erin was such a bitch that she didn't seem to have a conscience at all? 

Erin glanced at her Big sis, who was obviously angry at her. The corner of her lips raised. She pointed down at the carpet, "I had sex with a man in front of that TV once."

Then she pointed at the door leading to the second bedroom, "There."

And lastly, she pointed at Kate's master bedroom, "And there. Oh, that one is for a threesome. I did it with two men at once, and that included Matt too."

"I've had sex with Matt here a total of three times, you should check some of your bedsheets, Sis. Maybe it's stained with something suspicious, haha~."

"ENOUGH!" Kate snapped. She was so repulsed by her own sister, it was just too much to let her continue recounting her sex adventures in that very apartment.

To say that she was disappointed was an understatement. Kate was so disgusted with her sister that she couldn't even see her the same way anymore.

Erin was supposed to be a good girl. Though she might not be a virgin, at least Kate had expected her to stay with one man and NOT sleep with her own brother-in-law. 

"I don't know if you accidentally hit your head or something, but I do not want to listen to your repulsive stories. Get out!" Kate yelled. She pointed at the front door, waiting for Erin to leave. 

"…"

Erin went silent for a long time while her eyes kept staring at her sister, but the grin on her face had slowly faded, leaving only a trace of a young woman in her early 20s staring uninterestedly at her sister.

Eventually, Erin finally got up from the sofa, but rather than walk to the front door, she made her way towards Kate instead. 

She confidently strode towards Kate, each step making her heels click on the floor. Kate took a step back, making sure to maintain some distance from her sister, she was pregnant her first priority was her child now. She was afraid that Erin might actually attack her and possibly harm her baby in the process.

"Stay right there and tell me what you want!" Kate yelled on full guard

Erin halted, they were only two feet away. The corner of her lips rose again, "Let me show you something interesting, sis."

Erin fished her phone out of her breast pocket and then scrolled through her gallery until she found one picture. Then she flipped the screen to show it to her sister.

Kate gasped the moment she saw the picture. 

It was an image of their mother lying unconscious on a hospital bed. A needle was injected at the back of her hand Kate could also see the many cables that connected her mother to a heart monitor on the left side of the hospital bed. 

Erin's lips perked up even more because her big sister was so shocked by the picture.

"W—What happened to Mom? How come nobody told me about this?!" Kate asked worriedly. "Is she alright? What did the Doctor say about her condition?"

"Mary sent this picture about three days ago to Matt, but he couldn't contact you because you blocked him," Erin said as she mentioned Mary, Matt's mother. "Mom's heart condition is getting worse, Mary found her lying conscious in the living room. The Doctor said that she needs a lot of rest and shouldn't be given any news that might actually give her a heart attack. In short, she cannot hear anything that is too shocking."

"B—But how did her heart condition worsen?! She was fine a month ago!" Kate clearly remembered that the medication her mother took at least helped to make her condition stable. She could even do house chores all by herself, which was already a huge improvement. 

So, seeing her mother on that hospital bed triggered the fear in Kate's mind. She began to worry if her mother could survive for another year.

"Well, that's because I spoke to her and told her something very important," Erin said. The smile she had turned malicious as she continued, "You see, about three days ago, I told her that you hit me with a baseball bat, and kicked me out of the house."
