"Well, this is going to be quite a show! The adopted daughter desperately pursues a marriage while the real daughter rejects it vehemently. Isn't this a case of same person, different fates"?"

The mocking and derisive gazes felt like sharp swords piercing Kayla's heart. All her pride and self-esteem had turned into a joke at that moment.
