Chapter 336 No Reason?
Lillian watched Wendy's mouth move, her thoughts somewhat sluggish.
Many images flashed before her eyes.
Wendy was right. No one in this world would be kind to others for no reason.
She still remembered the snowy night when Jackson personally carried her into the Frane family. That night, he comforted her, took her to clean off the dirt, and helped her treat her wounds.
He gently soothed her and even gave her a sweet orange candy.
She thought she was lucky enough to attract him.
However, she forgot that Jackson was never a person overflowing with sympathy.
He was aloof and hard to approach at that time.
He also had a cleanliness obsession. If there wasn't a reason, why would he lower himself to personally take care of her, who was dirty and covered in blood?
It turned out that the reason was so cruel to her!
Lillian closed her eyes slightly, hiding the bitterness and pain in her eyes.
She didn't want to be mocked by Wendy anymore.
"Are you done talking?" When Lillian opened her eyes, her expression had barely regained its calm.
Wendy smirked as she replied, "Of course not. How could I ever get enough of such a funny story? Lillian, how does it feel to be a substitute?"
Wendy's face was full of mockery, and Lillian coldly sneered and said, "If you want to talk about the feeling of being a substitute, do you really need to ask me? Aren't you the best example yourself? You've been trying to replace me ever since you returned to the Sivan family, haven't you?"
Wendy's expression froze, and her face twisted in anger as she shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm the real child of the Sivan family. Why would I need to replace a fake like you?"
"You've always lived in my shadow, haven't you? Otherwise, why would you keep bugging me?" Lillian said sharply.
Wendy was furious. Her hands tightly gripped the tablecloth, and her expression was full of jealousy and hatred.
Indeed.
Ever since Wendy returned to the Sivan family, she had always wanted to surpass Lillian.
In her mind, she was the Sivans' biological daughter, so she should be better than Lillian!
However, things didn't go as she wished. For so many years, Wendy had always lived in Lillian's shadow.
She learned musical instruments but couldn't match Lillian's talent, who was proficient in multiple instruments.
She learned to dance but was clumsy and uncoordinated.
In school, no matter how hard she tried, her grades were just okay, while Lillian excelled and went to college at 15.
She finally established herself in the social circle as the heir of the Sivan family, but Lillian became Mrs. Frane of the Frane family.
"Even if you overshadow me in everything, making everyone say that the biological daughter is not as good as a fake, so what? Aren't you about to be abandoned by Jackson and kicked out of the Frane family? Let's see if you can still act so high and mighty then!" Wendy stared at Lillian, sneering.
Lillian didn't want to argue with her anymore. She asked, "What is that woman's relationship with the Price family?"
Lillian thought about how Jackson seemed to be hiding something when he mentioned Henry's death.
As she thought about how Lyra said Jackson felt guilty towards the Price family, her emotions began to unravel like a spider web.
Wendy laughed mockingly, resting her chin on her hands, ready to enjoy Lillian's broken expression, and said, "Jackson's Star Group and the Price Group's Star Tech both have the word of star in their names. Do you think that's a coincidence?"
Lillian's hand at her side suddenly clenched.
Star Group was founded by Jackson. It was separated from the Frane Group, and its name was chosen by Jackson himself.
Lillian always thought its name symbolized that the group would shine like stars.
It turned out that it wasn't so.
