“Did I tell her to wait?” Aria suddenly spat out.

Both froze on the spot. One was devastated, feeling as if the sky had collapsed, while the other’s face was dark with anger, rendered speechless.

Zoe, trembling, reached out and clasped Aria’s hand. “Aria, Mom was wrong!

“I shouldn’t have doubted you or suspected you of pushing Silvia when you actually helped her by kicking Ryan… I misunderstood you. Can you forgive me? It won’t happen again.”

Perhaps it was the bond of kinship at play, for as Aria gazed upon Zoe’s sorrowful face, a fleeting pang of bitterness skittered across Aria’s heart, only to vanish as swiftly as it came.

This was the first time Nathan saw his mother so humble; it made him uncomfortable inside, too. “Mom has already apologized; what more do you want? It’s not that big of a deal–why are you being so petty?”

Coldly, Aria replied, “So what if I have to?”

Anger surged within Nathan as he clenched his fists tightly together. “Aria! You’re just jealous because everyone treats Silvia well and want attention on yourself instead. Let me tell you this: blood doesn’t mean everything- everyone likes Silvia because she is kind–hearted and obedient.

“Even though she had no blood relation with our family, she would still be our family’s treasure–our parents‘ daughter–my big brother’s little sister

-and my elder sister.

“The mix–up wasn’t fair to you, but we’ve been trying to make it up to you. Mom and Dad are so scared of upsetting you that they tiptoe around even when talking.

“Big bro’s even neglecting Silvia because of you. You wanna marry Liam?

Go ahead. Wanna divorce? Fine. Isn’t that enough to satisfy you?” Nathan practically shouted by the end.

He’d seen everyone walking on eggshells around Aria. Even Silvia looked guilty, afraid of making her unhappy.

He’d tolerate her, keep his distance, never say hurtful things, even if he didn’t like her. He just didn’t get it–they’d gone this far; what exactly was Aria still fussy about?

“Isn’t that enough to satisfy me? Let me tell you something…” Aria fixed her gaze on him, her tone unwavering. “All the things you’ve done—who exactly have they moved, other than yourselves?

“Did I ask you to tiptoe around me? Do I owe you gratitude for your self- righteous efforts?” she mocked with a beam. “I only stayed at the Saxon. family for a month. Don’t make it sound like you gave me the whole world.”

Aria lowered her head, pushing Zoe’s hand away. “To me, it’s the same. whether you’re there or not.”

Nathan coldly retorted, “Isn’t the apartment you’re living in now paid for by us? Your clothes, bags, jewelry, aren’t they all…”

“Shut up!” Suddenly, Zoe jolted back to her senses, as if struck by a heavy blow.

“Aria never spent our money. She bought the apartment herself. She returned the 15 million and even added 3 million more.

That day, Aria didn’t take the card; Joseph took it instead.

The money they sent, she either rejected or returned.

Thinking about what they’d done for Aria, besides empty words of concern, Zoe couldn’t find a shred of evidence.

She didn’t trust her own daughter.

Nathan, unaware of what happened at home, was blank–minded, asking instinctively, “If she’s not using our money, where did she get hers from? The Cole family?”

Zoe could barely stand, tears falling uncontrollably. “Aria, Mom realized it too late. It’s okay if you don’t want to call me ‘mom. Just give me a chance. to make it up to you, please?”

“You never owed me anything. No need to make up,” Aria replied coldly.
