Reading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind Chapter 495 Toxic Family +5 Pearls

"Does a lady of her stature need to be polite to someone as insignificant as me? I know you adore Tabitha. To you, she outshines me by hundreds, thousands of times. You love her even more than your own daughter. But mom, do you really need to isolate me as if I'm a contagion? You never tell me whenever she returns. For the past few years, I've been telling you that I want to see her, but you've been keeping it from me all this while. What harm could possibly come from me just seeing her? Is she so superior, and I so inferior, that I'm not even worthy of meeting her?"

At the corner of the staircase, Isabella was listening with rapt attention. She had always found this housekeeper quite peculiar, and now she understood why. The woman clearly favored the daughter of the house, treating her like a little princess, while showing such disdain for her own daughter. In a way, it seemed to be a form of vanity.

Unable to resist, Isabella leaned over to take a look.

She saw a girl who was quite attractive, but her clothes screamed poverty. She stood there, her face full of defiance as she questioned Petra.

In the end, she looked at Heidi with a mix of helplessness and resentment, and could only say, "She is a pampered young lady, born into wealth and privilege. You simply can't compare.

Petra is the main source of income for the entire family. The son that the man brought into the marriage was also a lazy bum, spending his days at home playing video games. He's currently still in a vocational school. Heidi, on the other hand, is an ambitious individual, excelling in academics from a young age. She had the potential to attend high school, but during that period, her brother had gotten into trouble that required monetary compensation.
