To me, giving birth to a child and not raising her properly was already a sin. Now that the child had grown

up and started a new life with a partner and a new family, why would the biological mother still want to

hurt her?

Isabelle took a deep breath and smiled wryly, “I know we did her wrong in so many ways, and I don’t

blame her for hating us, but she’s still her biological mother.”

I could not believe what I heard. I used to think women like Cameron, Rebecca, and Kristina, were evil,

but Isabelle’s family sent chills down my spine.

I looked at her and smiled, “There are people whom I find pathetic and despicable. Do you know who

they are?”

She looked at me but kept mum.

I started driving when the traffic light turned green. I looked at the road and said, “Rachel has been very

kind to your family. I would have adopted a far crueller approach if I were in her shoes.”

Isabelle was taken aback as she did not expect I would say something like that.

I continued, “There are people who are born poor, but it has nothing to do with money. They’re just poor

in spirit and don’t know what it means to be humans.

“Like you and your mom, who had committed the worst crime ever by ending her children’s lives. Yet,

she never thought what she did was wrong.

“Rachel should count herself lucky to have escaped from such a terrible family and found herself parents

who cherished her and took good care of her.”

“And what did you all do? You came into her life and destroyed her happiness. Her father was the man

who rescued her from hell, yet your mother killed him,” I said, “And your mother seems to be very proud

of what she has done. She thinks she’s doing this out of love for his son.

“It was as if she had forgotten Rachel, too, was her child.”

Isabelle lowered her head and cried. She said in between sobs, “We had no choice. My brother would

die if she refused to donate her bone marrow. We’re a family. It’s her duty to rescue her brother!”

Her remark bemused me, and I instantly let out a cold snort. “Since when it was Rachel’s duty to rescue

your brother? Has your mother even done her part in raising her?

“Have you all tried finding her in the past? No. You only appeared and blackmailed her emotionally just

because you needed her help. If this is not selfish, I don’t know what else is.”

I parked my car by the road and tried to contain my anger. “You know what your mother did was wrong,

yet you still side with her. How could you, Isabelle?”

Isabelle nodded in silence. She responded after a short pause, “But I didn’t know what else to do

anymore.”

“Talk to Rachel nicely, if possible. If not, stay away from her and stop making her life miserable,” I

advised.

“But my brother…” Isabelle’s eyes turned red, “He’ll die if he doesn’t undergo the operation!”

“But why put the pressure on Rachel? Isn’t there anyone else who’s related to your brother? Shouldn’t

you be looking for your father in the first place?” I could not understand this family.

She lowered her eyes and sighed. “We’ve lost touch for years, and my mother was afraid that he might

not be able to take it as he’s not young anymore.”

I looked at her and soon realized this issue was much more complicated than I thought.

I thought what they did to Rachel was cruel and despicable, but I bet Isabelle would think otherwise. To

her, it was Rachel’s responsibility to save her brother since they were related by blood.

Rachel must be utterly disappointed with how foolish her biological parents were and how Isabelle

condoned their actions.

I was afraid I might explode with rage if I were to continue this topic with Isabelle.

So, I decided not to talk about it anymore.

Isabelle and I arrived at the restaurant. Instead of focusing on Rachel’s hapless fate, we talked about

other things and

had a pleasant dinner.

Isabelle left after dinner, and I decided to stay in the restaurant a little longer.

Ashton called and said he wanted to pick me home, so I thought I might as well sit here and wait for him.

All of a sudden, Cameron and Zachary came into the premises. There were only a few famous high-end

restaurants in K City, so I was not surprised to see them here.
