Chapter 7 One More Shameless Than Another

“Benedict, say something! Now Callie has grown up and doesn’t listen to me anymore. You talk to her – she was in the wrong, wasn’t she?”

Benedict took a while to think before finally opening his mouth, “Callie…it was wrong of you to make a big scene. Why didn’t you settle everything in private It wouldn’t have made a difference if you could told Mrs. Fairchild all these things privately, right? Now I don’t know how others will see us!”

How will they see us? They’ll see right through us, thought Calista.

She felt like laughing, but her heart started pounding furiously. She had been given a second chance at life but now she had to sit with her enemies. It didn’t feel good at all, and all the feelings bottling inside her were going to explode anytime.

“Stop the car.”

At her command, the car came to an abrupt halt, causing Yelena to suddenly lurch forward in shock. She glared at the driver, then started her tirade against Calista.

“What now, I can’t even scold you when you do something wrong? It’s so hard being your stepmother- after spending so many years raising you, now you’ve grown up and want to rebel against me?”

Saying this, she looked bitterly at Benedict, as if she were the biggest victim.

“Look at your daughter, I can’t control her anymore. Normally she’s already disobedient, and now she’s rebelling. I’ve been so kind to her yet she treats me like an enemy…

Benedict was also angered by the sudden brake earlier, and his anger was further fueled by what Yelena said, and became even more upset.

“Callie, you have been too disobedient, apologize to your mother now!”

Quincy saw that Calista’s face went all white, so she decided to add fuel to the fire. “Daddy, do angry with Callie, maybe she couldn’t control her temper because she was frightened by those guys.”

“So it’s ok to take it out on family members?”
