Chapter 2
Chapter 2 Demanding An Explanation Upon hearing the news, Angela was
initially stunned, and suddenly, some vague memories became clear. In 2004,
she was nineteen years old and had just started university. On the way home
with Fanny, they encountered a few gangsters, and both of them were injured
while resisting. Although Angela was more seriously injured, her entire family
thought it was all her fault and sought justice for Fanny instead. Her forehead
was cut open and stitched up, while Fanny only had a small bump on her
forehead.
However, Angela was accused of “instigating the gangsters to harm her sister.’ In
her previous life, her so-called father had questioned her in the same manner.
She tried to explain and apologize, but all she received was cold indifference. No
one would believe her words. So, this time, she didn’t plan to explain either. After
all, no one would believe her even if she did. Angela regained her composure
and asked calmly, “But did she die?” George's pupils contracted; he paused for a
moment and then angrily shouted at Angela, “Angela, that's inhumane!
How can you be so malicious and curse your sister to death?!” Angela's oldest
brother James was even more furious. He rushed toward Angela and glared
down at her. “Angela, I can't believe our family has someone as malicious as
you. We shouldn't have brought you back in the first place. We should have let
you fend for yourself outside.” Angela simply looked deeply at him without saying
a word. Several other brothers wanted to accuse Angela, but they were stopped
by Scarlet. Sitting by the hospital bed, holding Angela’s hand, Scarlet smiled
tenderly. “Angela, I know that you have suffered a lot since you were little
because you were mistakenly taken away. After we brought you back, we have
been trying to make it up for you and let you continue your studies. Now you are
in university. Many girls your age don't even have the chance to go to middle
school or high school. You should be grateful.” Scarlet's eyes gradually turned
red as she continued. “You shouldn't have harmed your sister like this.
Reputation is more important than life for a girl. Although she was switched at
birth, she was raised by us since she was young. I treat you all equally, so you
shouldn't have any prejudice against her, okay?” It was grand, but looking at the
hypocritical face in front of her and recalling what Scarlet said before she died,
Angela felt a chill in her body and mind. It was colder than holding an ice block.
The opportunity to study given by the Kins Family was indeed quite rare.
But is it not to silence those gossipers and show off that every member of the
Kins Family is a college graduate, right? Fanny lives in the princess room while I
live in the storeroom. I have leftovers for meals and only have hand-me-downs
from Fanny. And they have the audacity to say that they treat both of us equally?
Is this a joke? Moreover, Angela was injured like this, and they not only showed
no concern but also came specifically to interrogate and blame her. Without
understanding the situation, they only knew how to blindly blame her. Angela
sneered and didn’t want to say a word. Samuel, the fourth son in the family,
couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at Angela, “Angela, you've gone too far!
You've done such outrageous things to Fanny, and you still dare to say it's not
your fault? It's fine if you usually cause trouble, but now you even curse her!
You're evil!” Zacharias, the third one, also chimed in, “Angela, don't be ungrateful
for the blessings you were born into.
Everything you have now was given to you by the Kins Family. What else are you
dissatisfied with? Do you really want to drive Fanny to death before you're
satisfied?” Joseph, the second, opened his lips, wanting to say something, but in
the end, he didn't say anything. However, disappointment was clearly written on
his face. Angela calmly withdrew her hand, her eyes calm. She turned her head
to the side, no longer wanting to argue with them. For those who didn't believe in
her, she felt that saying even one more word was a waste. “I've heard everything
you said, so how do you plan to punish me?” Angela asked. As soon as these
words were spoken, the room fell silent. It seemed that they hadn't expected
Angela to say this, and Scarlet's eyes showed a hint of dissatisfaction. George
sighed and said, “Since that's the case, I need you to give Fanny the opportunity
to deliver the Brundelian speech. You can take a break for now and apply next
year.” The reason Angela applied for this Brundelian speech competition was
because of a boy named Christopher.
She wanted to have more contact with him. Although she didn’t particularly like
her major, she had been studying very hard for Christopher, and everyone could
see that. Everyone present thought she would cry and make a fuss, but who
knew... Angela smiled and said, “Okay.” Her answer was too quick, leaving
everyone a bit stunned. “Anything else Fanny wants? I can give them to her too.”
From childhood to adulthood, such things had happened too many times, and
Angela always thought that if she endured it, it would pass. However, she
realized now that she had been wrong. Taking a step back didn't always lead to
better prospects. Sometimes, it would just make her bullies corner her further.
