Chapter 278 The Cruel Truth

“Kyla is an adopted daughter. She was originally abandoned, but she’s already enjoyed 18 years of the wealth, luxury, and family love that should have belonged to me. She was treated like a princess, living in luxury, adored by everyone!

“And me… during the 19 years I was missing, if I hadn’t met the person who changed my life, I might already be wandering homeless by now, or even dead!

“Now I’ve severed ties with the Jensons, and you have the nerve to come up to me trying to convince me to come back home, then call me unreasonable. What a joke!”

Justin’s heart began to race, and faced with Tilda’s aggressive confrontation, he couldn’t help but retreat, cold sweat suddenly breaking out and soaking his entire body.

His posture already showed that Justin had completely lost the upper hand to Tilda when it came to presence.

He even began to wonder whether there was truth in her words.

Was… was Justin wrong?

No… that wasn’t right! Justin hadn’t done anything wrong!

One was a sister he’d lived with for 18 years, with no blood relation.

The other was his biological sister who’d been missing for 19 years and was finally found.

He wanted to keep both–was that such a terrible thought?

The Jensons could certainly afford to support two daughters!

“But… Kyla is innocent, Tilda. You can’t blame her for the mistakes made back then!

“I know you’re angry right now, and the Jensons wronged you. You’re technically Kyla’s older sister. Can’t you just be more understanding toward her?”

Crack.

The words struck one of Tilda’s most sensitive nerves.

Looking at his face that was trying to stay calm but was absolutely disgusting, for a moment, Tilda really wanted to rush forward and tear him to pieces.

Understanding?

Hadn’t Tilda been understanding enough?

Afraid that Kyla would feel inferior and sad, Tilda had hidden her abilities and become a pushover!

She’d been understanding until she was burned alive and died the most horrible death!

“I will never be understanding! Justin, I’m telling you–I want to take everything. I want it all to belong to me, and no one else can even touch it!

“I am exactly this kind of evil woman. See my true colors and stop bothering me!”

The driver arrived just then, pulling up in a sedan.

He asked cautiously, “Um… which one is Ms. Tilda?”

“That’s me.”

Tilda pulled her car keys out of her pocket and tossed them to the driver.

“My car is over there. Follow me and drive me home.”

After saying this, Tilda turned around and left without hesitation.

The driver gulped nervously, looking at Justin who was standing there with a pale face.

He’d actually been there for a while already, but seeing these two people locked in what seemed like a heated argument with such tension in the air, he hadn’t dared to approach.

Now he hurried to follow Tilda.

Justin watched his sister’s figure gradually disappearing into the distance.

His fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly.

Finally, he took a deep breath and shouted out what was in his heart.

“Tilda, I know you’re saying that out of anger, but you can’t take your rage out on Kyla. In this matter… you’re the one who’s wrong!”

Justin knew that saying this would make Tilda hate the Jensons even more and refuse to come back.

But Kyla was Justin’s bottom line!

Even for the sake of his biological sister Tilda, Justin absolutely could not kick Kyla out of the Jenson Villa!

The rest of the Jensons would never agree to it either.

Shouting those words showed where Justin stood.

As for whether Tilda could ever return to the Jenson Villa, that was up to fate.

Justin could only do his best.

Tilda stopped walking.

A self-mocking smile curved her lips.

Wake up, Tilda. This is Justin, not the idealized version you’ve built up in your head.

That so-called gentle Justin–his bottom line, his “number one” in his heart, his most important sister, would always be Kyla!

It could never be his biological sister!

If it weren’t for loving so deeply, yearning so desperately, there wouldn’t be such terrifying possessiveness!

It’s exactly because I once yearned so much for family, for kinship, for care, that I developed such possessiveness, that I could tolerate Kyla buzzing around in front of me like an annoying mosquito!

If I returned to the Jenson Villa and didn’t even feel jealous of Kyla, didn’t even have thoughts of kicking her out, that would only mean the Jensons weren’t important to me at all!

Love is the most twisted curse in this world.

Love is the most terrifying possession in this world.

No one would allow sharing their “most beloved” with others.

What they want is exclusive ownership.

The old Tilda had been trapped in this curse, fallen into an abyss with no way out.

Even though she was so jealous of Kyla, she still had to endure it, to compromise.

There is no emotion more terrifying in this world than love.

It could make the Queen, the top hacker of the dark web, willingly abandon everything and become a nobody.
