I clenched my jaw and stared at him. This was the offspring raised by the Shaw family.
Wasn't their family known for excellent upbringing? Yet here they were, allowing their own daughter to be mistreated like this.
"Hank!"
My eyes flashed with fury as I approached and pulled him towards Maria's bedroom door.
I pounded on the door forcefully, rousing the occupants who opened it groggily...
They gazed at Hank and me standing outside, still seeming perplexed.
"Return my household documents. I'm leaving!"
Being a minor, I required a guardian, or I'd face difficulties with future college entrance exams.
However, I couldn't endure this situation any longer.
Not only did Quincy, who had assumed my identity, irritate me daily, but even my birth family treated me as less than human.
Why should I remain here and subject myself to such indignity?
"Ruby, what are you saying? Your father and I just got you back."
Maria regarded me with a mixture of anger and annoyance.
