“I’m your sister and Mom’s biological daughter. Why shouldn’t I be here? It’s the weekend, so I came to visit Mom,” replied Melanie with a pretense of innocence.

She was extremely annoyed at Herbert.

Doesn’t he understand the importance of familial bonds? I’m his own sister, yet instead of treating me well, he’s treating me so poorly. What a display of bad manners!

Herbert replied, “Someone knocked on the wrong door.”

Phyllis didn’t think much of it. “What do you think of this outfit? Your sister truly has an impeccable taste. Every piece of clothing seems perfect for me.”

It had been many years since Phyllis had truly taken the time to dress up she seemed to catch a glimpse of her younger self.

She couldn’t help but feel touched.

“This outfit is also quite good,” complimented Herbert.

After cooking two dishes, Aurelia brought them out from the kitchen.
