"What are you daydreaming about?" Tabitha waved her hand.
Heidi simply chuckled. "I'm just really grateful. I'll repay you in the future."
"No need. It's a small matter, anyway."

Heidi's expression stiffened once more, then she began to inquire about Tabitha's recent circumstances. Heidi heard that she had become infatuated with that beautiful woman they had just met. Apparently, Tabitha's sister-in-law was also an idol.
Heidi could only perceive Tabitha as a fool, no matter how much she had grown. However, she also understood that it was the result of being pampered and spoiled by the world.
In truth, she never dared to dream of a life as fortunate as Tabitha's. All she ever hoped for was to have a family who cherished her.
However, my only family member...
Just as she was deep in thought, Petra knocked and entered the room. It was clear that she was worried, but upon entering, she brought Tabitha's favorite cake. This caused Tabitha to squeal with delight and laughter. However, Petra only brought the simplest dessert for Heidi, as if implying that her mother did not care about Heidi at all, and wouldn't even bother pretending in front of anyone else.
"Why are the cakes different?" asked Tabitha, puzzled.
Petra, however, said, "Heidi really likes this."
Tabitha let out a puzzled grunt, but she respected Petra's decision.
Heidi gritted her teeth. She didn't like this at all. Of course, she preferred something better, but her mother believed that this was all she deserved.
It wasn't that Isabella enjoyed prying into others' privacy. Rather, when she saw Petra carrying up different kinds of desserts, she felt something was off. She couldn't help but let her mind wander for a moment, and that's when she caught a glimpse of Heidi's ulterior motives.
As she continued to find out more, she grew more and more alarmed.
It seemed as though Heidi was directing her anger over her own tragic fate toward Tabitha
However, she was rational enough to not display it.
Sometimes, thoughts alone shouldn't be grounds for condemnation. It all depended on Heidi's on her actions.
So, when they were heading downstairs to go to the amusement park, Isabella changed her inind and decided to join them.
The group of girls made their way to the amusement park behind the house. It was filled with slides and trampolines. Luckily, none of them were overweight, so they could all play.
Originally, Isabella, being the oldest, had intended to act maturely and not join in their antics. However,

As a result, Rosalie secretly captured numerous videos and sent them to Alexander.
Alexander saved everything and promptly decided to construct a similar one at his own place.
After a while of playing, it was surprisingly Heidi who left first. It seemed as if she had long outgrown this childlike innocence.
Outside the amusement park, there was a rest area where someone had brought over some drinks and snacks. Heidi was there, waiting for everyone. Before long, Petra came over again, seemingly to urge Heidi to leave promptly. Isabella was watching from the side of the trampoline. She sensed that the more Petra treated her daughter this way, the more likely Heidi's resentment toward Tabitha would grow.
Clearly, the two had another disagreement. In the end, Petra had no choice but to temporarily leave, not daring to escalate the situation further.
When everyone had tired themselves out and emerged, it seemed as though Heidi had recovered. At least, one couldn't tell from her expression that something was wrong. However, as everyone settled down to enjoy their pastries, Isabella suddenly noticed that Heidi had deliberately knocked the spoon off the table with her elbow.
Moreover, it was specifically directed at Tabitha's direction.
"Oh no, sorry!" said Heidi, yet she remained still.
Since the spoon was quite close to her, Tabitha casually bent down to pick it up.
Throughout the entire time, Isabella was sneakily observing Heidi. She noticed Heidi's triumphant smile when she saw Tabitha bending down to pick the spoon up. Isabella was truly baffled. Is this something to be proud of?
However, after picking it up, Tabitha said, "It's dirty, don't use it. Have someone bring over a new one."
Heidi's expression changed subtly.
Isabella was confused. Well, we're all human beings, but why don't I understand her logic? Why did Tabitha's words make Heidi feel insulted? Is her dignity so fragile? Isabella was simply left feeling utterly bewildered.
However, upon seeing that Heidi wasn't doing anything else, Isabella decided to let it go.
