Chapter 59
Caitlin was in her so–called “princess room,” but it looked more like a disaster zone. The place was a complete mess everything from the bed to the wardrobe to the vanity was covered in some red, unknown substance. The walls were no better, stained in the same horrific color. It looked like a bloody crime scene, and it was utterly disgusting.
Seeing the chaos and horror in front of her, Jasmine snapped.
“Caitlin!”
Jasmine pointed at her, “How dare you come into my room and destroy it! You’ve made such a mess! You’ve spilled all this paint everywhere! That’s my new limited edition makeup you ruined! And my dress–my brand new dress I haven’t even worn yet–it’s all dirty now! What kind of trash are you?”
Caitlin dropped the bucket in her hand casually, “What’s all the noise about? I just noticed your room was dirty, so I thought I’d cleanse it a bit. Besides, if it weren’t for the fire at The Lewis Family five years ago, this room would have been mine in the first place! When I came in, I thought it was the room my dad had prepared for me. It’s just a room, nothing special.”
Caitlin spoke so nonchalantly, as if the mess didn’t matter to her at all. The more she acted like it was no big deal, the more furious Jasmine became.

“How could it be for you? There’s no room for you in this house anymore, okay? Everything in here is mine, mine!”
Jasmine’s face turned red from the anger. She yelled, “You didn’t even label your things. How would anyone know? You’ve ruined some makeup and clothes–so petty! I’ve always been so nice to you! I shared everything with you when we were younger. Have you forgotten?”
Caitlin raised an eyebrow, “Don’t bring up the past.”
Jasmine screamed back, “I don’t care! This is my room! You barged in without my permission and destroyed it. You’re out of line! You’re nothing but a shameless thief!”
Too angry to care about decorum, Jasmine screamed so loudly her voice was almost distorted.
“Call me a thief?” Caitlin stood up, her eyes cold and sharp. “What about when you secretly stole Scott from me? Do you even know what shame is? My mother, Kelly, was Jonathan’s first wife! I’m the legitimate daughter of The Lewis Family! This place, everything here, was meant for me. And you? You
stole it!”
Caitlin’s gaze was piercing. Jasmine wasn’t backing down, either.
“Ha! How laughable! Your mother is already dead, and now my mom is the lady of this house. I’m the daughter of The Lewis Family now. Everything we have is because of my dad, my brother, and me–our hard work. It has nothing to do with The Jonathan Family, understand?”
SLAP!
Caitlin suddenly slapped Jasmine twice across the face, without warning.
“Don’t lecture me about hard work. You’re a bunch of ingrates! The people who helped you the most and gave you everything, and you turn your back on.
them!”
“Caitlin! You bitch!” Jasmine screamed, her face already showing clear red handprints from the slaps. Tears streamed down her face in pain.
“Is it wrong for me to slap you? You claim to be The Lewis Family’s precious daughter, but you’re the one calling me a bitch? Haven’t your parents taught you any manners? If Megan can’t teach you, I’ll do it myself!”
Caitlin’s voice was frigid, carrying no warmth at all. Jasmine’s anger turned into pure hatred as she glared at her, shaking with rage.
“You wait. I’m going to tell my mom! You won’t get away with this!”
“Go ahead! I’m not scared,” Caitlin taunted.

Chapter 59
Jasmine, crying, ran out of the room. Moments later, loud footsteps approached, followed by Megan’s shrill voice calling out
“Caitlin! Open the door! Open it now!”
Joshua, pale and in pain, shook his head, unable to move.
