You can’t expect me to have any manners when I grew up without parents, Mrs. Rosewood, Elysia said, crossing her arms.

“Who are you calling Mrs. Rosewood? I’m your mother!” Bella snapped.

“From what I’ve seen, you didn’t act like my mom at all. Seriously, what kind of mom blames her own daughter without getting the full story?” Elysia sneered.

“You” Bella was so furious she could barely speak. She raised her hand, ready to slap Elysia.

“Enough!” Scott’s voice boomed, slicing through the tension. He took a deep breath and turned to Elysia. “What’s going on?”

Elysia explained everything that had gone down earlier, her voice tinged with frustration. “Dad, isn’t this my home? Aren’t you and Mom truly my parents?”

Scott furrowed his brow. What are you talking about? This is your home, and we are your parents.”

Emma turned to Elysia with a smug look, like she was saying, “So what if you’re Dad and Mom’s real daughter? They still got my back. See? Even if you’re in the right, they’re always on my side.”

“Mary, take Elysia to her room,” Scott commanded.

“Yes, Mr. Rosewood Mary bowed respectfully and then turned to Elysia. “Please come with me, Ms. Elysia Rosewood.”

Elysia walked behind Mary until they reached a small room on the second floor of the villa. “This is your room,” said Mary.
