Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 975:

Nina let out a sharp, bitter laugh. “Mom, you’ve admitted it yourself. I’ve been the one yielding since childhood. Why should it always be me who has to compromise? Natalie and I are both your daughters, so why do you keep favoring her?”

Elyse sighed, her brows knitting together. “I don’t have a choice. There’s only one lead role in this show. If there were two, I wouldn’t have to put you in this difficult position, would I? Can’t you just be a little more understanding?”

And with that, Nina spun on her heels and strode off.
