"It's all because of your bitch sister! If she had accepted Mr. Frans, none of this would have happened..." Lauren stared at Nicole, but Nicole ignored her.
Lauren continued with no response from her daughter, "Nicole, you can't be nice to her. If you get too close to her, she will drag you down! That damn child is bringing bad luck to people around her. She made her mother die, and now she made her father suffer too."
Nicole was shocked to hear how cruel her mother's words were.
She knew her mother didn't fully love Scarlett, but this was the first time she'd heard her say something this bad. And this disgusts her. How can a mother say those words to her daughter?
Even though Scarlett wasn't her biological child, a mother shouldn't say those nasty words. She felt both sad and ashamed — this woman was her birth mother.
