5 Free Coins

Seeing the way Waylon stood up for her, Natalie found herself growing more attached to her parents.

When Juliana came in, she hadn’t noticed Waylon in the room. Thinking only Natalie was there, she had carelessly spoken those words.

Now, Waylon’s stern response left her feeling embarrassed.

“Mr. Stone, I didn’t mean it like that. I was just asking casually.”

“You’d better be clear about who you are,” Waylon snapped. “Ask what’s appropriate, and don’t ask what isn’t. Don’t think that just because you’ve worked in this family for more than twenty years, you can speak to my daughter that way!”

His expression didn’t soften in the least.

He hadn’t intended to bring Juliana along in the first place. She had insisted on coming, and he hadn’t objected since she had indeed been by Ruby’s side for so many years. But her words just now made him very uncomfortable.

This was his daughter–the one they had finally found after so long. He and his wife couldn’t bear to say a harsh word to Natalie, yet Juliana had the nerve to question whether Natalie should be at home.

It hit Waylon then that the special treatment they’d given Juliana all these years had blurred her sense of her own place.

Juliana’s face turned pale, then flushed, her hands clenched tight. She looked as if she’d suffered some great injustice but was forced to swallow it, which only made Natalie frown slightly.

From the very first meeting, Natalie had sensed a subtle hostility from Juliana.


At first, she thought she was overthinking. But that remark had made it plain–Juliana didn’t like her.
