Chapter 2016

Jaylene was left without words after Darcie confronted her.

Darcie's face lost color as she sighed. "Jaylene, you've always been such a good listener and excelled at everything since you were a child. I worked hard to raise you to be someone independent, not just someone's wife.

Darcie clenched her teeth and added, "You have Saun as your last name, but you're not tied by blood to this family. No matter how much your dad and brother love you, their blood ties will always be stronger. You can't rely on the Saun family forever.

"Even though her life wasn't as good as yours in the beginning, she's on track to surpass you if you don't step up. Once she makes her mark in Caline, you might find yourself in her shadow forever."
