Feeling disappointed, Johanna shook her head and checked the time.

“Well, it‘s late, I‘m going to bed now. Natalie, you should get some rest as well.”

Natalie proceeded to hug her mother and headed back to her bedroom. On the second day, when Natalie was about to head out, Lila, who was going down the stairs, caught up with her and stopped her from leaving.

Lila stopped Natalie on her way out. She flipped her hair and glared daggers at Natalie angrily, “Why did you rat on me?”

“I didn‘t want to meddle in your affairs, but you‘re a member of this family. What you do will go on to affect the whole family a great deal,” Natalie said indifferently.

“Eric is a married man now. If the two of you get together, you‘ll only go on to disgrace the White family‘s name.” Lila glared at her and it was hard for her not to push her on the shoulder.

“Don‘t act so lofty! You simply hate me because I had stolen what should‘ve been yours for so many years. You still despise me for not telling you the parachute was broken. You simply wanted to get back at me!”

The more she spoke, the louder her voice got. Lila‘s face also reddened out of anger. She kept right on pushing Natalie back.

Natalie grabbed hold of Lila‘s wrist and sneered in utter disbelief.

“Since you know you‘ve owed me that much, you should feel guilty about it.” Natalie shook off Lila‘s hand and was turning around to leave.

However, she turned her head and reminded Lila in a cold voice again, “Eric won‘t divorce his wife. Mom and Dad said all those things for your very own good. I hope you will wake up soon. Even if you‘re not their biological daughter, you can marry a decent man because you‘re still a White. But if you keep right on doing this, everyone will think of you as a shameless home wrecker!”
