Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 172 - Don't Hurt Your Little Sister!

"Don't be nosy when I talk to you!" Lisa replied irritably. Her voice boomed as she put her index finger on Bella's face.

"Oh, I know why you forbid me to like Rangga. You actually have feelings for him, right? Don't be hypocritical!" Bella snarled fiercely.

Hearing her sister's accusation, Lisa suddenly raised her head and looked at Bella with an angry face. "What do you mean by that? Are you accusing me? What evidence do you have?"

"It's clear that you prevented me from liking Brother Rangga for reasons that didn't even make sense. You're actually jealous and want Rangga to be yours, so you don't want me to be with him!"

Lisa's heart skipped a beat when she heard her younger sister's accusation. She was offended by what Bella said so she slapped her in the cheek again.

"I dare you to say it again and I'll beat you up!" Lisa shouted angrily.

"Is this how you treat your own sister? Fine, slap me again! Come on! Just kill me if you need to so you're satisfied!" Bella snapped out loud.

Her younger sister's words burned Lisa's anger even more. She couldn't bear to hear any vile words from Bella. Without saying much, she grabbed Bella by the collar and then shook her as if she was a traitor who had stabbed her from behind.

"You bastard! Take back your words! What do you mean by accusing me of being jealous of you!?" Lisa asked in a loud voice. She swung her hand and slapped Bella again, making the girl's cheeks look even redder.

"This is your fault! I'm just expressing my feelings to him but you decided to complicate the problem. You said you were friends with Rangga? How come you slap your own sister!?" 

"I'm telling you so that you don't become a useless person like me! Your future is still bright, don't waste it for a damn relationship! "

"But I love Rangga! I want to go out with him!" Bella said, ignoring Lisa's words.

Lisa gave up, her anger started to die out. She snorted irritably and looked away from Bella then walked back to the house.

When she got home, Lisa came with a sulking face. Bella also had the same look but only worse. The girl then threw her shoes to the end of the room.

"Don't overdo it! Stop being childish!" Lisa exclaimed irritably.

Kumala had just finished with the work in the kitchen and approached Lisa. Then she took the grocery bag from Lisa's hand.

"Lisa, what took you so long? I only asked you to buy meat at the supermarket though," Kumala asked anxiously.

"Relax ma'am, the queue was long and it took so long," Lisa lied so that her mother wouldn't be too anxious.

Bella rushed into her room with an irritated face, passing through Lisa and Kumala without saying a word. The girl looked down and threw her bag on the dining room's chair.

When Bella was about to enter her room, Kumala stole a glance at her youngest daughter's face. She saw the bruise on her left cheek. At the same time, Bella started to shed tears.

"Bella? What's wrong with you, honey? Who hit you in the face?" Kumala asked worriedly. The middle-aged woman approached her youngest daughter and gently stroked Bella's back.

That, of course, was an opportunity for Bella to complain to her mother. Lisa also understood that her younger sister was very spoiled so that her mother would believe everything that Bella told her.

The girl started sobbing, rubbing her eyes as if she was the most miserable girl in the world. Bella was very good at acting in order to win her mother's heart!

"Moooooom," Bella whined with a cry.

Kumala hugged Bella with a pitiful look. She helped her wipe her tears that poured down the girl's face like December rain with the hem of her shirt.

Seeing her youngest daughter crying like this broke Kumala's heart. "Oh Bella, my dear daughter, who could beat you like this? Tell me, I will make them pay for it later! "

Lisa didn't say anything, she just looked at Bella with a great annoyance. 

'You don't have to be so dramatic, you little prick! It's your fault that you made me angry!'

"Lisa hit me! Sister Lisa hit me mom!" Bella said, sobbing.

Lisa then glared at her with a sharp and angry look.

"If you had watched your words and didn't slander me like that, you wouldn't be slapped!" Lisa replied, pointing her index finger at Bella's face.

"Oh Lisa, what have you done to your little sister! Are you crazy? This is your sister, your sister! You should take care of her as her older sister, not beat her!" Kumala said, feeling sorry for Bella.

"That's exactly what I did, mom! First, I advised her not to be careless with her life choices. Second, I told her to be serious and focus on studying so she could graduate quickly. Third, she dared to slander me so she got what she deserved!" Lisa fired back, defending herself from her younger sister's accusation.

"Lisa, if you want to advise your sister, you should talk to her with patience instead of hitting her!" Kumala replied, defending her youngest daughter.

Bella could never be wrong in her mother's eyes no matter how much Lisa tried to explain the truth. Kumala spoiled Bella much more than Lisa. It was as if Bella was the incarnation of a goddess who must be guarded and would never do anything wrong!

But Lisa had to defend herself in this case. She believed that what she did to Bella was for her sister's own good.

"That's what I did before I slapped her because she was stubborn and slandered me, mom!" Lisa exclaimed, raising her voice as her emotions began to take over her.

"Regardless, you are still the older one so you need to set a good example to her. Hitting your sister is not a good example! Now, apologize to Bella!" Kumala firmly said.

"Mom! Why should I apologize to her when it wasn't even my fault?! I did what I must as a good sister!" 

"Yes, but you don't have to slap me, Lis!" Bella said with a choking voice, still crying in her mother's arms.

"You bastard, don't talk too much!" Lisa snapped, pointing at Bella's face with passionate anger.

"That's enough, Lisa! Don't yell at your sister like that!" Kumala replied, still defending her youngest daughter.

"Mom, just so you know, I advised her not to date when she's got a thesis to finish! But she laughed at me and kept on going around accusing me of liking Rangga!" 

Hearing Lisa's explanation made Kumala speechless. He looked at Bella with a face full of disbelief.

Bella looked at her mother with a sad face. The girl shook her head in response.

"Lisa! How evil you are to slander your own sister!" Kumala said, denying the fact that Bella was lying.

"Whatever! I'm tired! Do what you want!"

The woman rushed into her bedroom, slammed the door and locked it. Bella and Kumala were still silent in their seats.

The atmosphere that night suddenly turned awkward and silent. The dinner that had been prepared gradually became cold.

A few minutes after the feud, the guests arrived and they had dinner together. Only Lisa was absent.

Kumala looked at the empty dining table for a moment and thought about how Lisa was doing.
