    What really grinded her gears was their son. He was already ten but still ransacked her room, opening


    up her newly bought skincare products and spilling them all over the ce.


    Abigail was fuming and confronted his mother, but the woman défended her son, “What, did you put


    gold or some treasures in these skincare products so that they’re worth 1000 bucks? Abby, I might not


    be the savviest person, but you can’t pull the wool over my eyes. Abigail shoved the empty bottle in her


    face, “Me, deceive you? Can’t you see for yourself? Google it and you’ll know that this serum alone is


    worth 1000 bucks.”


    “A thousand bucks for a serum? Is it really that expensive?” The woman refused to admit it verbally, but


    she was thinking to herself that Abigail looked younger every year; it must be because of these pricey


    skincare products. If her man would buy her such expensive skincare, she too could look more


    beautiful each year.


    Abigail said, “You owe me!”


    The woman responded, “Abby, he’s your brother. You’re blood-rted; he just spilled a few of your


    skincare products. Who taught you to make a fuss like this?”


    Just a few skincare products?


    Abigail was so pis sed off by this shameless woman that she almostughed, “Yeah, just a few


    skincare products, so why don’t you pay up?”


    She sat there leisurely, munching on sunflower seeds and watching TV, “I don’t have the money; you


    should ask the person who broke it to pay.”


    Abigail knew this woman too well that gettingpensation from her would be harder than reaching for


    the stars. In the past, she would swallow her anger under her mother’s persuasion, but this year she


    had to make her understand the consequences; otherwise, it would happen again next year, “Get over


    here!”

    The boy was holding a chicken leg with his dirty hands, “I’m eating my chicken, no time.” This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Abigail stormed over and snatched the chicken leg from his hands, “If you don’t pay me back today,


    you’ re n ot eating anything in my house,”


    He threw himself on the ground and started to wail, “Mom, Abigail hit me.”


    His mother feigned concern, “Well, you shouldn’t have messed up your sister’s skincare products; you


    deserved a lesson.”


    Abigail grabbed him, ready to give him a good beating. His mother saw this, rushed over, and shielded


    the boy, “Abigail, your brother is just a child. How could you hit him?”


    Abigail said, “He’s already ten! Ten! If you don’t discipline him now, society will when he grows up!”


    “Abigail, what’s with the attitude?” She knew Abigail and Cornelia were close, so she intentionally


    raised her voice, “I know you’re a good kid; you must have picked up these bad habits from Cornelia,


    Abby, I’m telling you, you need to keep your distance from Comelia. Don’t let her lead you astray!”


    “What are you talking about? We’re discussing skincare products; don’t drag the conversation off-topic.


    Abigail might be cool-headed about other things, but she couldn’t keep herposure when it came to


    Cornelia.


    She knew mentioning Cornelia would infuriate Abigail, so she kept bringing her up, “Cornelia came


    homest time, hanging out with some bad boys, and even got her uncle locked up for a few days,


    causing her grandmother to cut ties with her uncle. She’s always been a troublemaker, bringing


    misfortune to her mother since birth. Her father died when she was young and even her grandmother


    fell ill because of her. Anyone involved with her will end up in trouble, you better keep your distance.
