When she recalled that he had betrayed her, Maria felt very infuriated.

Was his love towards her an illusion?

How could he betray her and stab her in the back?

Maria stood by the door and her steps were shaky, “Sampson...“

Sampson walked towards her and discovered the bruises on her knees. He frowned while asking, “Have you gotten into a fight with someone?”

If not, why did she end up looking like this?

Maria shook her head as she stared at Sampson, “Sampson, is your love towards me fake?”

“How could that be?” Sampson really loved her as his sibling. Her disappearance in the past was somewhat his mistake too, so all the while he had been living with guilt, and now that he was able to retrieve her, all of his feelings towards her were never fake.

Suddenly, Maria launched into a fit of laughter, but all of a sudden all traces of her smile evaporated. She then let out an exasperated scream, “If you really love me and see me as your sister, why did you betray me for that woman’s sake?”

“What are you talking about?” Sampson was confused by her words. “Come in first.”

He pulled along his sister who was losing control of herself. Due to the fact that her marriage had been cancelled recently, Landon was especially unhappy about that. There was a dark cloud hanging over the house.

If Landon heard that she was throwing a fit again, he would no doubt be enraged.

Maria was dragged into the house by Sampson.

“You sit down first. I’ll go get some ointments to disinfect your knees, so that you won’t get infection.”

Maria looked like she didn’t understand a thing as she continued to sit there motionless and her gaze was focused on a spot in space.

She thought that by becoming a part of the Herbert family, she would be able to be together with Matthew, enjoy her high status, and possess a lover and also an affectionate brother.

However, things couldn’t be further from the truth.

Everything had changed. Yes, she did have a prestigious status now, but she had lost Matthew, and at the same time that woman was channelling away part of Sampson’s love towards her.
