Chapter 51: Once Made Me Feel the Warmth of Heaven

The Mitchell family’s success today was all stolen!

Thinking of that, Cheyenne clenched his fists tightly under her long sleeves.

Malaya indirectly caused the death of Selah, her mother. Cheyenne heard about it accidentally when she was in middle school.

In her memory, Malaya was nice to her. Whenever she and Nora fought over something, Malaya would scold Nora and then hand the toy to Cheyenne gently.

She would pat her head tenderly and say, “Cheyenne, you have to remember that you are the Lawrence family’s young lady. You were born to be respected.”

“Things you like can only belong to you. If they are in someone else’s hands, you have to take them back in any means!”

Later on, Malaya bought many beautiful dresses for her and made her look very premature. Cheyenne grew to fourteen years old while treating Malaya as a mother figure all along.

Until one day when she participated in a piano competition just like Nora did.

She practiced piano in the room, thinking that she could win the championship title through this competition so she couldn’t wait to share it with Malaya.

However, when she walked up to Malaya’s doorsteps, what greeted her were sounds of crying from Nora. “Mom, why did you let me lose to Cheyenne? I can’t accept it. I played the piano better than her!”

Malaya saw her crying and pulled her gently into her embrace, wiping Nora’s tears away with a handkerchief.

Running her fingers through Nora’s hair, she whispered softly, “You have to understand that everything I’m doing is for your own good.”

“People always say that being a stepmother is difficult. If I openly favor you, everyone will think that I am mistreating the stepdaughter.”

“Then, everyone will only blame me and also you. They’ll say that you’re the illegitimate child of a mistress with no upbringing.”
