Chapter 154: Chapter 152: No Leverage

"Emily Lyle, you need to get this right! This stain wasn’t given by me! It was Shawn Lyle who found it himself!" Elliana Lyle’s gaze grew increasingly fierce, making hearts pound upon seeing it.

The word "stain" completely struck at Emily Lyle’s fragile self-esteem, prompting her to stand up with eyes full of resentment.

"Yes, I am a stain, but what did I do wrong? Can I choose my birth? You’re the legitimate daughter, so you get to be on top, and I’m nothing? Why? I’m also Dad’s daughter!"

Bam!

The tea table flipped over onto the ground, drawing Lana and the butler over!

"Madam! Are you alright?"

Elliana waved her hand slightly, indicating she was fine. Her anger had momentarily blinded her, causing her to overturn the tea table.

Emily Lyle, standing nearby, was already scared stiff, momentarily forgetting how to cry.

"I thought you were innocent, I gave you a chance, you didn’t take it yourself, that’s the end of it. Lana, see her out."

Those words seemed to have some kind of magic, repeating over and over in Emily Lyle’s ears, but she didn’t feel Elliana had actually given her a chance.

The two choices Elliana offered weren’t favorable for her at all!

As she left, she threw out a remark, "Sister, it’s you who can’t accept me."

Don’t blame me for not being able to accept you!

Emily Lyle didn’t say the latter part aloud, but Elliana wasn’t a fool; she could guess it anyway.

Emily Lyle’s words held no intimidation for her; instead, they made her laugh sarcastically.

"I’ll leave you with one last message."

The person at the door paused, waiting for more.

Six words slowly came from Elliana’s mouth, "You reap what you sow, not to live."

Upon hearing this, Emily Lyle tightened her clenched fists, paused for a moment, and then quickly left.

"Madam, let me help you upstairs to rest for a while." Lana looked at her, full of heartfelt sympathy.

And now she looked with heartfelt sympathy at the shattered tea set on the ground. This set wasn’t cheap, but she had destroyed it herself!
