Chapter 29: The So-Called Family
Elizabeth looked at her angry daughter.Her face was somewhat similar to her own.She felt as if she had traveled back in time in an instant.She could not help but smile.
"You really couldn't keep your cool.What did I teach you? I told you to pay attention to the things around you and observe more."
"Can't you see that your father favors that jinx? No matter what, she was now the official heir of the Sullivan family.It would not be good for us to fall out with her.But if we can hold out for three months, the wealth of the Sullivan family will become ours.In the meantime, you don't have to do anything, I'll make sure that your father will not let her have a good time!"
Elizabeth's words finally made Reagan's unhappy face brighten.
"Mother, you're right, but I don't have to wait for three months before I teach Melody a lesson.She would be going to school next week, and she'll know that I'm awesome." Elizabeth smiled helplessly and looked at her lovely daughter.
Melody took the remote control and turned off the television without saying anything.She then turned to face Sarah, her arms wrapped across her chest.
Her delicate and disinterested face was incredibly cold, and her pink lips had a hint of disdain that those who are at such a young age don't usually have.
"Is this what you meant when you said that they love me from the bottom of their heart?" Sarah was speechless.
Although she knew that her mother and little sister didn't like Melody, she never imagined that they actually had such a great hatred.
Sarah was likewise taken aback when she learned that her grandfather had left all of his possessions to Melody.She expected Melody to get only a little.
After all, she hadn't lived in the Sullivan home since she was little.
Sarah was shocked when she found out.
But her surprise was less than that of the other family members.
Maybe it was because she was well aware from the beginning that this was irrelevant to her.
There was no way that the Sullivan's would share any of their possessions with Sarah, no matter how many there were.
As a result, she had low expectations and was not disappointed.
Hearing what her mother said to her little sister, Sarah suddenly felt a little distressed.She reached out to hold Melody's hand.
The moment Sarah's hand reached over, Melody felt as if she had been electrocuted and subconsciously pulled it away.
However, Sarah seemed to be determined.
She grabbed Melody's hand tightly once more and kept gently patting the back of it.Then she gave Melody a serious look.
Her gentle eyes made Melody stop struggling.
"Melody, I know that you feel uncomfortable.Why don't we just pretend that they don't exist and live a good life?"
Sarah originally hoped to persuade Melody to treat the family better because she was concerned that she would suffer because of her cold and thin personality.
But she didn't expect to see such a bitter scene, which made her unable to say anything to persuade her.
Melody's gaze had been focused on Sarah's hand.She didn't like being touched by others.
If it was someone else, this hand would have already been crippled.
When Sarah initially touched her hand, she subconsciously pulled away.
But when Sarah forcefully pulled it over again, her body did not resort to rejection anymore.
This made Melody feel a little strange.
Could it be that she felt different because she was her biological sister? Sarah had observed that Melody was silent, probably because she was still angry.
She fully understood the reason why.
Thinking about what Reagan said just now, she became a little worried again.
Melody hadn't stayed with the Sullivan family since she was young, so she didn't know about Reagan's bad habits.
But Sarah knew how many tricks her little sister has up in her sleeves.
Sarah suffered a lot when she was still in the Sullivan family. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Now that Melody was back, she was really worried.
"Melody, you have to be careful when you go to school next week.Reagan isn't easy to get along with" Sarah cautiously advised her.
Melody felt that Sarah was being very tactful.She was aware that Reagan was not only difficult to get along with, she was also a bad girl.
Melody initially had no interest in school and did not plan on attending.
But now that she had discovered Reagan's desire to cause trouble, she was more determined to see how things would play out.
Melody wanted to see how powerful Reagan was!
