The woman’s eyes and brows were somewhat similar to that of Natalie’s. They both looked smart and charming, but there was a hint of arrogance in the woman’s eyes. Johanna frowned immediately when she saw the girl.

‘Lila! You have to put on a coat whenever you leave the house! It’s January now—the coldest time of the year!” Lila pouted and threw herself into Johanna’s arms, acting very much like a spoiled child.

“Mom, I just wanted to see you sooner. The servant told me you were finally back, so I came as fast as I could. What have you and Dad been up to these days? I didn’t see you at the office.”

She peeked at Natalie and asked curiously, “Who’s that? You never bring strangers home.”

Johanna placed her hands on Lila’s shoulders and pushed her away firmly. With a hardened expression, she said, “Let’s talk inside. Dad and I have to tell you something important.”

Lila frowned. She obviously picked up on Johanna’s indifference to her. Something was definitely off.She took a sidelong glance at Natalie before nodding and following her mother inside the house.

“What?! Impossible! Is this a prank? Mom, Dad, you can stop teasing me now.”

Upon hearing the whole story, Lila immediately sprang out of her seat indignantly.

“Tell me you’re joking!” Lila’s eyes suddenly brimmed with tears.

Her carefree life was about come to an end.
