Ellison narrowed his eyes, watching his wife smile mischievously. He couldn’t help but smile faintly as well.

Just from a casual listen, he could tell there was something unusual about this conversation.

No wonder those two had been whispering to each other in secret these past two days. He had thought they were just chatting about typical girl stuff.

Joycelyn noticed the deep look in Ellison’s eyes. She shot him a glance, signaling him to hurry up and take care of the

matter.

Ellison cleared his throat twice and spoke in a low voice.

“Sandra was raised by my grandmother since she was little. I see her as my own sister, If I ever hear words like ‘outsider or anything else from you again, get out of this household.” That was the final warning.

Intimidated by Ellison’s authority, Tanya gave Sandra a half–hearted apology and stormed off.

Sibyl didn’t linger either. With an unpleasant expression, she also left.

At the doorway, a slightly older girl appeared. First, she was shoved aside by the furious Tanya. Then, when Sibyl passed by, she gave her a sharp glare.

“What’s wrong with Tanya?” the girl asked timidly, following behind Sibyl.

Joycelyn couldn’t be bothered to care. People always resorted to conflict with each other. The Grant family was too big, with tangled relationships everywhere.

What they had witnessed today was just a small glimpse of Sandra being bullied. This could have happened many times behind closed doors.

“Aren’t you good at fighting? Why didn’t you fight back?” Ellison walked up to Joycelyn, looking down at Sandra, whose eyes were brimming with tears. He lightly flicked her forehead with his finger. “I’ve got your back. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Joycelyn replied, “She’s a Grant. I am your wife, and she still dares to give me that attitude. Let alone Sandra. The people in your family are just wolves in sheep’s clothing.”

Day after day, the drama never ended.

for a while but couldn’t shake him off. Finally, she gave in. “Fine! This morning’s events didn’t sit right with me, so I paid extra attention. Turns out Sibyl and Reuben seem to have something going on.” Joycelyn whispered, afraid of being overheard.
