Chapter 1221
Why hadn''t she realized the family''s bias before?
At this moment, Martha knocked on her door, not waiting for her consent, she pushed the door open
impatiently.
“Serena, I''m sorry I''mte."
Martha saw the girl sitting on the bed, her eyes red and swollen from crying, and her heart ached. "Il
had the day off today. Remember, you said the bakery items at Tranquil Haven Cafe were delicious, so
I queued up for three hours just to buy some for you. But when I got home, that wicked witch wouldn''t
let me bring them in. She said Hans had punished you by making you reflect on your actions in your
room."
This wicked witch was none other than Edith.
Seeing the panting Martha who had rushed over, caring about her, thest defense in Serena''s heart
broke, and she cried even harder.
“Serena, don''t cry." Martha was at a loss for words tofort her.
Serena had never cried out loud like this before, even the vignt Edith standing outside the door could
hear her clearly.
Seeing her crying her heart out, all Martha could do was to hand her some tissues and wait for her to
stop crying before wiping her tears.
“Martha" Serena lifted her swollen eyes and asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you still remember, long time
ago, when Hans invited me to the observation deck to chat?"
“Of course, I remember." Martha said while bending down to help her wipe her tears, “Hans said, it was
normal for everyone to be concerned about Arabe''s feelings as she had just returned home. You
might have misunderstood that everyone was treating you differently than before. But in everyone''s
eyes, you were still a part of this home, nothing had changed"
Serena didn''t expect Martha to remember so clearly. Tears fell again. At that time, Hans spoke so
sincerely, she believed him.
Looking back now, she was really naive, too naive!
“Hans also asked you then, how your parents and brothers have been treating you over the years. He
said that what they gave to Arabe was what you had for the past eighteen years! This was originally
Arabe''s home.
Arabe was supposed toe back and enjoy the life that should have belonged to her."
When Serena heard this, her tears fell, and she gave a tragic smile.
“He also said that Arabe was the real daughter of the Collins family, they should be kind to her. As
her brother, he should pamper and cherish her, especially after she had suffered outside for eighteen
years. Her future life should be doublypensated. You even exined that you had no animosity
towards Arabe, but Hans cut you off, saying that he could tell how much animosity you had"
Serena''s smile became even more bitter and sorrowful.
Yeah, since then, Hans had stopped trusting her, stopped listening to her exnations, only believing
what he saw.
“Hans said that even if Arabe returned home, the affection they have shown you over these eighteen

years was not fake. You could still stay, like before, buy whatever you wanted, do whatever you
wanted, no one would restrict you, or treat you differently."
Serena''sughter was filled with tears.
“Hans also said that Arabe held no animosity towards you. Sometimes it was you who were
unreasonable first, but Arabe was always tolerant, happy to have such a sister. He also said
something like, Arabe epted you for the sake of the parents and brothers, and it gave you an
opportunity to be envious of her, to hurt her. If she had firmly refused to let you stay in this home from
the beginning, have you ever thought about what your fate would be?"
Serenaughed heartbreakingly for a while before saying, “Martha, you told me then that Hans was
indirectly warning me that if I didn''t get along well with Arabe, I would have to leave home. At that
time, I didn''t believe your words, I thought Hans was right. I must have been hit on the head!"
At that time, she doubted herself, feeling that this home indeed didn''t belong to her. The love of her
parents and brothers, the luxurious lifestyle, the servants’ attention, all didn’t belong to her. She had
enjoyed Arabe’s life for eighteen years.
But now she realized that Martha was right. It was the fault of her parents for confusing the children.
How could she be med? She also lost eighteen years of life being loved by her biological parents,
she also suffered losses!
“It''s all my fault. I didn''t listen to you. I thought if I treated Arabe as my real sister, they would treat me
as before."
