"For example on their birthdays, Erica would receive new clothes, but Kimberly would not. You completely treated her like an outsider. In addition, you even asked her to work and told her to take care of Erica. You would always tell Kimberly that because she was the older sister, she had to take care of her younger sister. Am I right?"

When Juliette said this, she recalled the time when she investigated this matter and a hint of disgust inevitably appeared in her eyes. "Even after Kimberly had gotten a divorce, you still forced the dissatisfaction your youngest daughter felt about her marriage onto her. She was asked to replace your youngest daughter in the marriage and endure the unfair treatment. Mrs. Shell, I've never met a human so cruel that she would do such a thing."

Even Mrs. Shell felt that she was guilty of doing such a thing. However, on second thought, she felt that what she had done was justifiable.

"How am I being cruel? You are aware that Kimberly is not my biological daughter. Any human would treat their biological daughter well. However, she is not of my blood. So why should I treat her well? I don't owe her anything! Moreover, the Shell family has brought her up long enough. I have also given her the education she needed. What have I done wrong?"

"Mrs. Shell, I'm afraid that you're not aware of your own ill intentions, right? If Kimberly had a choice, do you think she would have chosen you as her mother? It was you and your husband who wanted to adopt her because you couldn't have a child of your own. Yet, you let this child suffer injustice once you've had your own child. Whenever you treated Kimberly unfairly, did you ever think about how much joy and happiness she has brought to you in the beginning?" Juliette bellowed.

Mrs. Shell was speechless.

She suddenly recalled that before she was pregnant, the two of them were very happy when they adopted Kimberly. They felt that she was a very cute baby and that she would grow up into a pretty lady. At that time, they even discussed that they must find Kimberly a good husband when she had grown up.

However, after Mrs. Shell had her own child, those thoughts slowly began to change. She even began to hate Kimberly. She felt that this child was a burden, and it would be a waste of money to spend it on her. Therefore, she never bought new clothes for Kimberly. Moreover, even when Erica bullied Kimberly, she would turn a blind eye and even felt happy about it.

When Kimberly was abducted by the traffickers, Mrs. Shell even thought that it was a great thing.

Kimberly was a child whom she brought back from the welfare home after all. Hence, she was originally an abandoned child. It didn't matter to Mrs. Shell when the traffickers had abducted her. Besides, she even felt overjoyed when she thought that she would no longer need to raise her if the traffickers sent her to other families.
