Chapter 127 "How could this happen? I was under the impression that Joe and Maisy were in a relationship," Samuel voiced his disappointment.
"Let's drop it," Jeffrey interjected. He was clearly annoyed.
Maisy had confided in sfriends about her intentions to marry Joe. It led to one of them sharing a photograph in their group chat.
The photograph captured Joe and Annie at John's engagement party.
They hadn't received an invitation to John's engagement celebration.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis exclusion stemmed from the Williams family's inability to penetrate the social circles to which John and Joe belonged.
Maisy was mortified by this.
"Where's Skylar? It's already past six, and she's still not back," Samuel remarked irritably.
There was a heavy air of gloom over the bedroom.
Skylar had just returned to Williams Residence. It was a little over a month since she had moved out.
It felt surreal, like a dream.
The housekeepers, who were fond of Skylar, greeted her quietly upon her arrival. One of them whispered," Ms. Williams, your parents are upstairs. You're all family here. If you just acknowledge your mistake, I'm sure they won't be hard on you." Skylar was favored by the Williams family housekeepers compared to Maisy, mainly because she treated them with respect and never acted superior.
Without saying much, Skylar responded, "I'll go up and check on them." On her way upstairs, she turned on the voice recorder hidden in her bag Reaching the door of Sadie's bedroom, she overheard Samuel's criticism toward her. "She doesn't act like we're family. If she cared, knowing Mom is ill, she'd be worried, concerned, and definitely would have visited." Skylar inwardly scoffed. In her previous life, an incident left Sadie paraplegic. None of them had shown her any concern.
They would complain about the smell whenever they approached her room and swiftly leave.
"Do you even considerpart of this family?" Skylar stood defiantly at the door as she was unwilling to step inside. Her biting, sarcastic tone startled everyone. They immediately turned towards her.
"So, I thought you'd never return." Samuel sneered.
"Wasn't it you who had my mom call me, desperately trying to bringback? If you hadn't reached out to her, do you think I'd have wanted to set foot in this horse? Skylar retorted with a smirk.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSadie felt a pang of confusion and dismay at how Skylar wasn't referring to her as "Mom" "Why is Skylar being so aggressive toward us? she wondered silently "Skylar, please don't say that. It really upsets Mom and Dad, Maisy pleaded gently.
Witnessing the contrast between Maisy and Skylar, Samuel found om Skylar even more displeasing. Remembere Remember to call the right person mom, and don't forget who your real mother is "
"Samuel, most people use their brains to discern right from wrong. Are yours just for maintaining double standards? Your precious sister calls someone else mom, did she forget who her real mother is too?” Skylar shot back.
Samuel was left speechless.
Enraged by the comparison, Maisy exclaimed, "It's not the same! How can your foster mom even compare to our mom?"
"Oh, they can't be compared. The shamelessness alone sets them.
apart. My mom is beyondcomparison with her gentle and understanding nature," Skylar retorted with a cold scoff. X
