"It's all because of your bitch sister! If she had accepted Mr. Frans, none of this would have happened..." Lauren stared at Nicole, but Nicole ignored her.
Lauren continued with no response from her daughter, "Nicole, you can't be nice to her. If you get too close to her, she will drag you down! That damn child is bringing bad luck to people around her. She made her mother die, and now she made her father suffer too."
Nicole was shocked to hear how cruel her mother's words were.
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom She knew her mother didn't fully love Scarlett, but this was the first time she'd heard her say something this bad. And this disgusts her. How can a mother say those words to her daughter?
Even though Scarlett wasn't her biological child, a mother shouldn't say those nasty words. She felt both sad and ashamed — this woman was her birth mother.
Nicole stood from her seat and approached her mother. She said, "Mom, please s..." Her words stopped when her eyes fell on Scarlett, not far from them. Suddenly her chubby body couldn't help but stagger.
'Since when my sister arrived? Did she hear everything mother said?' She clenched her fists, fearing that her mother would continue her insulting words toward Scarlett.
Nicole wanted to stop her mother, but she saw Scarlett shake her head as if want her to stop doing that.
She could only clench her fists, praying that her mother would stop talking. She tried to send her mother a warning through her eyes, but her mother seemed to enjoy badmouthing her sister. She felt helpless.
"That useless girl will drag you down! She's a child who doesn't know how to help her troubled parents. It's useless for us to send her to study in the US, but she has absolutely no intention of helping us when we're having a hard time!!"
Lauren's burning gaze made Nicole want to cry.
'Oh my God, please stop my mom...' Nicole prayed silently, but it was in vain because Lauren kept taking her anger out on Scarlett.
Nicole couldn't let her mother humiliate her sister even more. "Mom, please stop it, will you!?" She grabbed her hand and looked into her eyes. "My sister, she is not like that..." Her eyes were red with tears.
Hearing her daughter defend that bitch. Lauren couldn't help but glare at Nicole.
Her stupid daughter, how dare she still mention that bitch, my sister? Making Lauren's anger explode even more.
"Stop calling her sister!! Listen, you must not follow in those bitch footsteps! You must study hard and marry into a rich family. My daughter Nicole... I will arrange everything for your future. And ensure that you will inherit the company. You have the right to continue the family business rather than that useless girl."
"Mother!" Nicole lowered her head to look at her fingers to escape her sister Scarlett's cold gaze.
She saw Scarlett's face calm a little, but she could feel she was pissed off.
"Don't you understand what I said to you!? Never get close to that bitch!! Or mother will punish you!"
Nicole didn't bother to reply to her mother's words anymore. She was too busy to find a way to make her sister not mad at her mother.
"Are you done?" Suddenly a soft yet firm voice came from behind.
Lauren's body tensed. She immediately turned around to look behind. She gasped in surprise when she saw that bitch Scarlett standing a few steps behind her.
"Y-You, You... since when have you arrived? Why didn't you say anything?" Lauren asked frantically.
'How much did this girl hear what she said!?' Suddenly Lauren felt uneasy.
Scarlett didn't answer Lauren; instead, she asked her, "If you're done talking. Can you move? I have to see my dad!" Scarlett said and walked past Lauren.
It's no use talking to women who have brains like prawns!
When Scarlett stood in front of the glass window, her heart trembled when she saw her father's body lying motionless in the hospital bed. With so many medical devices attached to his body. It made her heart ache. She felt sad for the first time.
But, she kept her expression calm, not wanting to show anything. Especially in front of Lauren-the bitch.
After a few minutes, Scarlett stood looking at her father. She turned her eyes towards Nicole, standing beside her; this little girl, Nicole, seemed so pitiful.
Scarlett felt sorry for Nicole, but when she remembered how evil and manipulative her mother was, it made her heart boil.
"How is he after the operation?" Asked Scarlett. Her tone is normal. As if she wasn't bothered by all the insults Lauren had thrown at her earlier.
Nicole felt a little at ease to hear that. She slowly lifted her head and stared at her sister Scarlett, "Sis, the doctor said..." Before she could finish her words, she saw her mother stop her.
"Your father finished his surgery four hours ago, but until now, there is no sign of him waking up. According to the doctor, there were indications that he would immediately fall into a coma. There are only two ways for him to wake up from his coma; one is a miracle, and the second is..."
Lauren stopped her sentence. She stared at this little bitch feeling irritated with her calm expression. It was as if this girl didn't really care that her father would live or die. Suddenly she has the urge to slap this little bitch in the face.
"You are an unfilial girl, Scarlett! When your father was dying, you looked happy..." Lauren's voice sounded shaky, and her eyes were slightly red. Her downcast eyes were filled with tears.
Scarlett suddenly became silent, seeing how Lauren manipulated her with her best acting.
'Tsk... Tsk... Now, you want to blame me for not showing any tears? What a delusional bitch!' Scarlett could only bitterly smile as she cursed this Stupid Lauren in her heart.
"Oh, my poor husband Jonathan… your life is so unfortunate. You have raised your daughter until now. But what did you get? Nothing. This girl you have always been proud of doesn't even feel sad when you're dying..." Lauren's tears started to roll down her cheek.
Scarlett "..."
