"Who are you accusing of spreading rumors? It's not a rumor when the evidence is there. And you can't stop me
from talking about it! A lot of other people are talking about it too!
"Besides, you brought this upon yourself. It's not my place to say all this if your mother is alive, but she died
young, and it's now my mother's responsibility to find a suitable match for you. You probably won't understand if
you haven't experienced a mother's care before. | pity you, really," Sadie retorted proudly. She knew that she
was superior to Rita in that aspect.
Rita's demeanor suddenly shifted in the next moment, and tears streamed down her cheeks. She typically
remained emotionally composed, but her falling tears accentuated her delicate features and made her look even
more fragile.
Sadie frowned and wondered what Rita was planning when a voice echoed from upstairs.
"Is that how you're supposed to speak to your sister?" Vince's stern voice pierced through the tension.
Sadie trembled and turned around to see Vince standing there. That was when she realized what Rita was
playing at.
"Dad, you're hearly," Sadie greeted with a forced smile.
Karen stood beside Vince with a similarly sour expression and tried to hold Vince's arm as they went down, only
to be met with Vince's rebuff.

Vince's tone was heavy with disappointment.
Rita lowered her head and wiped away her tears. "Dad... Don't blSadie. She's still young," she interjected
softly.
"Yes, Vince," Karen hurriedly
intervened, "Sadie's still immature, so she sometimes speaks without thinking. We're all family here, and
promise she doesn't mean any harm. Sadie, apologize to your sister and promise not to speak like this again."
Rita's conciliatory attitude was all the more heart-wrenching for Vince. "If | hadn't returned early today, |
wouldn't have known that you've been calling my daughter a motherless child behind my back! Is this how
you've raised your daughter, Karen? | married. you and brought your daughter along even though people judge
mistake."
Though Vince's remarks were somewhat tactful, each question struck at Karen's conscience. She took a few
steps forward and grabbed Sadie's arm forcefully. "Don't just stand there! Apologize to your sister right now!
"Please believe me, Vince. Sadie can be impulsive, but she means no harm. She's been in this household for so
long! I'm sure you understand her character."
