Chapter 69

She glanced at Arabella beside her, and the more she looked, the more Arabella's face resembled that of her biological mother, Luna. This realization made her frown.

Deep down, she believed Arabella was the daughter most worthy of her love, yet something about the situation irked her.

Seeing Arabella splurge on so many luxury items suddenly left a bitter taste in her mouth.

Back when Miranda was living at home, she never really bought her many clothes. Arabella would always pass down her own clothes to Miranda. At the time, she thought Arabella was being considerate.

But now she realized, as soon as Arabella handed down her clothes, she'd immediately buy new ones for herself.

Miranda and Arabella were built differently. Miranda, who had always been undernourished, was skin and bones with a less refined aura. Wearing Arabella's designer clothes was like trying to pass off fakes. Back then, she even resented her own daughter for being so skanky.

But at the Lancaster Group banquet, seeing Miranda in a bespoke gown looking so poised, calling another woman "Mom". Inside, she felt a mix of heartbreak and anger.

With another glance at Arabella now, who seemed only interested in buying luxury goods, her mood soured.

Arabella pouted. "Alright, Mom."
