Although Chandra was vicious with her words, she couldn't stop the tears from falling down her cheeks.

"Since Charles isn't fit to be your child, so am I and so is Chris! All three of us aren't fit to be your children. We don't want to be your children, either!" Xyla yelled.

"You...you three..." Chandra pointed a trembling finger at Xyla. "All you ingrates, treating me like this just for the sake of an outsider, a vixen?! I sacrificed so much for this family, and this is how you're treating me?"

"If you murder someone for the sake of my so-called happiness, I'd rather do without such a sacrifice! I don't see this as a sacrifice, and I don't feel an ounce of happiness. All I feel is fear and pain. The fact that you're my blood-related mother has become a burden to carry my entire life. As your daughter, your sins keep me up at night."

Chandra's head buzzed with anger. She sat by the bedside and lamented helplessly, "Xyla, are you really going to treat me like this?"

"If you're going to treat me and Chris like this," Xyla replied, "don't blame me for being unfilial."

Chandra was dumbfounded with fury.

Xyla knelt on the floor and pleaded, "Mom, if you still see me as your daughter, hear me out. Not only is she from the Spencer family, but if she dies, the Spencers will eventually find you out. Even if you don't care about them, you can't not care about Chris. She's very important to him. Do you want him to be in pain for the rest of his life? Charles has already suffered so much, to the point he killed himself. I'm left with just one brother!"

"Haha..."

Chandra started chuckling wildly.
