The night was quiet.

Angeline lay on the bed as she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Her grandfather's words to her during the day made her fall into entanglement and conflict.

Grandfather hoped that she would put aside her resentment and accept Anne as her family to expand the Severe family's social status. The old man's heart was actually in the right place.

However, she could not come to terms with it since she despised Anne for stealing her father. Now, her mother had to be all alone.

She also detested Sera for fawning over Jay. Subconsciously, she always felt that Jay belonged to her. It was a disgraceful behavior on Sera's part to covet her brother-in-law.

It was simply impossible for her to bear no ill-feelings and accept them into the family whole-heartedly.

Then, she heard a sigh amidst the night.

Angeline heard the sound and got up as she sat in shock.
