Chapter 647: Descending into Darkness
Lisa had even said that whenever Isabella spent all the money, he would deposit more into the account, urging her
to buy without any psychological burden.
Lisa had also mentioned that any subsidiary companies under the Dawn Group that Isabella was interested in could
be given to her.
Furthermore, Lisa had promised to accompany Isabella wherever she wanted to go or whatever she wanted to do.
It had been from that moment that Lisa had become different!
Because on the same day, Cecilia had asked Lisa to accompany her shopping, Lisa had claimed to be busy but
immediately told Isabella these things…
Lisa had given Cecilia mainly amounted to a few hundred
thousand, with some small gifts worth a few million only given on her birthday or during New Year.
But Cecilia had never received such an expensive four-leaf clover necklace throughout her life!
Yet Isabella had received this precious necklace and seventeen additional priceless gifts from Lisa!
Lisa had explained that because he had missed out on Isabella’s first seventeen years of life, he wanted to make up
for it with seventeen gifts, but he would make up for the lost time in the future…
From that moment, Lisa started to change, right?
Cecilia remembered when Lisa had bought Isabella an entire set of limited-edition lipsticks, claiming they were for
Isabella to use at work. When Cecilia had playfully complained that Lisa was being partial, Lisa had even told Cecilia
that she didn’t need those lipsticks.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThose lipsticks would have been perfect for Cecilia when she attended banquets or performed on stage…
But Lisa had shown such blatant favoritism!
There had not just been one or two incidents like this….
In the past, she had been naive and hadn’t paid much attention…
But now, looking back, these incidents felt like arrows piercing her heart one after another…
How had she not noticed it? How had she not seen that Lisa had changed?
He had become partial, cold, and indifferent!
A long time ago, when their family had visited their grandparents in the hospital, Lisa had warmly put his arm
around Isabella’s shoulder and had spoken to her…
When Cecilia had tried to hold Lisa’s hand, Lisa had asked her to let go…
The difference in treatment had been so evident!
And at the hospital, Lisa had mentioned that when Isabella got busier with college in the future, Alan would handle
the trivial matters of the fashion company, and Isabella could remotely make decisions on important issues. Even if
Isabella didn’t go to work, she would still receive her monthly salary…
Scarlet had only been able to offer tissues and had waited until Cecilia had cried enough before wiping away her
tears.
“Scarlet…” Cecilia had raised her swollen eyes and had asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you remember when Lisa took
me to the observation deck for a chat a long time ago…”
“Remember? Of course, I remember,” Scarlet said as she wiped away Cecilia’s tears. “Mr Lisa said, ‘It was normal
for everyone to be concerned about Isabella’s feelings when she had just returned home. It might have made you
think that everyone had changed towards you, but in the eyes of all the family members, you were still a part of
this family and had never changed.”
Cecilia hadn’t expected Scarlet to remember so clearly. Her tears fell again, realizing how foolish she had been to
believe everything Lisa had said…
Now, it all seemed so naive, too naive!
“At that time, Mr Lisa also asked how the famiy had treated you all those years. He said everything given to Isabella
was what you had owned in the past eighteen years! He said that this was Isabella’s home, and she had every right
to come back and enjoy the life that belonged to her,” Scarlet continued.
After hearing this, Cecilia’s tears fell, and she smiled bitterly.
“He also said that Isabella was the biological daughter, so they should treat her well. As a older brother, he should
pamper and cherish her, especially considering the hardships she had endured outside for eighteen years. Her
future life should be compensated even more… At that time, you had tried to explain that you had no animosity
towards Isabella, but Mr Lisa had bluntly said he could tell if you had hate and how much you hated,” Scarlet
continued.

Cecilia’s smile became more bitter and filled with sadness.

Yes, from that moment, Lisa had stopped believing in her, had stopped listening to her explanations, and had only

“Mr Lisa had even lied to you, saying that even if Isabella returned to this home, the emotions you had shared for
the past eighteen years were not fake. You could still stay and buy whatever you wanted, do whatever you wanted.
Nobody would restrict you or treat you differently,” Scarlet continued.
Cecilia laughed until tears rolled down her cheeks.
“Mr Lisa had also said that Isabella had no animosity towards you. Sometimes you acted unreasonably at first, but
Isabella always accommodated you. You should be happy to have Isa… He also said that Isabella had accepted you
before other families. Have you ever thought about your fate if she had firmly rejected you from the beginning?”
Scarlet added fuel to the fire as she spoke.
Cecilia laughed heartbreakingly before saying, “Scarlet, back then, you had told me that Lisa was indirectly warning
me that if I didn’t get along well with Isabella, I would have to leave this home… At that time, I hadn’t believed your
words and had even thought Lisa was right… I was being foolish!”
At that time, she had even doubted herself, believing that this home didn’t belong to her. The love from Families,
the luxurious life, and the servants attending to her, none of it had belonged to her. She had thought she had taken
over Isabella’s life for eighteen
years…
But now, thinking about it, Scarlet’s words made sense. Their parents’ confusion led to the mix-up of their identities.
How could she have blamed herself? She had also lost the life of being
pampered by her biological parents for eighteen years. She had suffered a loss too!
“It’s all my fault. I didn’t listen to your words… I had thought that treating Isabella as my Family would make them
treat me the same as before…”
