She used to feel like this house was a stranger to her. Then cthe disappointment.
Now, it was just emptiness and indifference. She felt nothing at all.
“Let's go in.”
Jerry knew bits and pieces about Rachel's family, but not the whole picture. Still, it was enough to feel relatable.
It was the kind of family where people were around, but one was better off without them.
Inside, Gerald sat in a chair sipping coffee, looking like he didn’t have a care in the world.
Rachel almost laughed. Jim had been stuck in the hospital all this time, and Gerald hadn't visited him
once.
But Gerald was old, and she didn’t exactly have the right to demand anything of him.
Rachel went straight to the point. “I'm here to see Sasha.”
Gerald's expression turned serious instantly. “Rachel, Sasha is your stepmother. How dare you call her by name?
Have you forgotten all the manners this family raised you with?”
Rachel gave him a cold, sideways glance.
“Don’t bother nitpickingevery t| walk in here. | don’t want anything to do with the Lloyd family. If it
weren't for my dad, | wouldn't even bother setting foot in this house. I'm only here to see Sasha.”

Gerald clenched his jaw. His expression darkened. “And what business do you have with her?”
“I want to talk about her little stunt of bringing in a psychiatrist to declare my dad mentally unstable.”
Gerald's brows furrowed even deeper. “What are you saying?”
Rachel laughed sarcastically. She didn’t bother hiding her contempt.
“Unbelievable! You're really just sipping coffee like nothing’s happening, huh? My dad's in the fight of his life,
and Sasha's already plotting to take everything. Keep this up, and she’ll have the whole fortune-and maybe even
this house. And you're still sitting here, cool as ice.”
Gerald could hear the bite in her words, but he had no real response. “Explain yourself. Your father’s being
treated at the hospital, isn’t he? Haven't Yyette and Sasha been visiting him regularly?”
Rachel shook her head in exasperation. Now she finally understood the saying that pitiful people often had their
share of faults. Gerald was completely blind to the fact that this household was falling apart.
She didn’t have tto waste spelling it out.
“Forget it. You're old. Just enjoy your retirement in peace. Go ahead and call Sasha down.”

Jim met another woman after Rachel’s mother died, but he was still good to Rachel while her mother was
alive.
Rachel never expected Sasha to backstab Jim when he needed family the most.
Sasha descended the stairs and spotted Rachel. She smiled and flicked her hair back.
