The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill novel Chapter 91

"What kind of attitude do you expect from me? If you're used to being spoiled, don't come running to me when you can't handle it," Scarlett replied.

Jonah took a deep breath, forcing down the seething anger bubbling inside him. "What's happened to you? Where have you been these past few days?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Scarlett, no matter what, you're still one of the Quinns!"

Scarlett sneered. "I might have forgotten about that if you hadn't mentioned it. Am I still your sister, the rich daughter of the Quinn family? Or am I just the little maid who got fired?"

"Are you blaming me for not acknowledging your identity? You know as well as I do that admitting it right now would harm Lily. Why do you insist on causing trouble for her?

"Do you have any idea how much she's sacrificed for you? Can't you just bear with it for her? Once we've paved the way for her, then we'll acknowledge your identity. Isn't that better?"

Scarlett nodded with a sarcastic smile. "So it's not my bad habits that are the issue. It's Lily, huh?

"Fine, then keep going. Don't let me stop you from paving the way for her. Do it right; do it openly. At least this way, she won't have wasted her time playing the role of your adopted sister."

Jonah felt a pang, her words leaving him rattled.

He quickly added, "Your bad habits are part of the reason, too. Anyway, if you want to return to the Quinn family and have us acknowledge your identity, you'll have to follow our arrangements.

"Stop causing chaos. Do you have any idea how many people you've offended recently?"

He raised his hand as if to signal he was giving up on this conversation.

"Forget it. I won't talk to you about this anymore. I'm asking you, what have you been up to these past few days?"

Was it because of her martial arts skills? Did she think no one could push her around? She was being utterly naive. Some things couldn't be solved with brute strength alone.

Jonah slammed his fist into the stair railing, his gaze dark and filled with venom.

Scarlett wasn't the Quinn family's maid but the real daughter of the family. It was no wonder he always felt that Scarlett had an aura about her that people from ordinary families couldn't have.

He suddenly thought that Jonah must be out of his mind for choosing an adopted sister over his real sister. But that wasn't the point.

The point was that Scarlett was stunning, talented, confident, gracious, and smart. And then there was Lily, average-looking, average in talent, fake, foolish, and hypocritical.
