“You should rest early, Britney. It’s gettingte and your body can’t take it. Also, don’t drink on your own
anymore. It’s not good for your stomach.”
Esme frowned.
Barbara sighed as she held her and said, “Love is the most difficult thing to us women in the end. Even

me.”
“Is there something that you can’t deal with?” Esme carefully asked.
“You know about it, don’t you? Although Finn and I had divorced, he still has a ce in my heart,”
Barbara said, sounding upset.
Something shed through Esme’s eyes. She didn’t expect that even a strong woman like Barbara
couldn’t beat this game called love.
“Then, does he have you in his heart?”
Barbara smiled coldly. “Maybe.”
However, all Esme was thinking about was if she could use her identity as Barbara’s sister to use
Director Parker if he hadn’t given up on Barbarapletely!
The next morning, Fia sent out a text using the phone.
When Esme saw the message when she woke up, she became anxious.
She immediately called Peter. “I want to see my parents.”
Peter sat in the car and looked at the Thomases’ mansion from the car window.
“Come out, then. I’ll wait for you outside the house.”
Esme didn’t even bother to change her clothes and simply walked down the stairs with her hair
unkempt and a pair of slippers.
“Where are you going, Britney?” Mrs. Thomas asked.
“Peter is here for me, Mom. We’re going out for a bit.” Esme smiled at Mr. and Mrs. Thomas as well as
Barbara, who were all sitting on the sofa. However, she didn’t even give the woman in ck a single
nce.
When the real Britney heard her words, there was nothing but scorn in the eyes hidden under her cap
as her hands clenched tightly.
Barbara moved toward her and handed her a te of grapes.
“Have some. It’s very sweet.”
“Thanks.” Britney took the te but didn’t touch the grapes. She didn’t even dare to show others what
she looked like. How could she eat in front of all of them?
Barbara looked at her with a broken heart. “Do you want to go back to your room for a rest?”
“Sure,” Britney said as she stood up with the te of grapes.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas looked at Barbara with a frown.
Mrs. Thomas even whispered, “What’s with your friend? She’s always acting so suspiciously and never
shows her face or eats with us.”
Barbara hadn’t even said anything when Mr. Thomas said, “We’re not phnthropists! Stop taking
anyone home just like that!”
“Dad!” Barbara roared. “Stop it!”
Britney held the rail tightly as she was halfway through the stairs. She couldn’t even lie to herself
anymore.
Someone like Esme Manning easily lied and stole her parents’ love while masquerading as her.
“Am I wrong?!” Mr. Thomas roared back. “She doesn’t even dare to show her face! What if she’s a
murderer?! Are you trying to kill us all?!”
“Shut up, Dad!” Barbara was feeling so distraught that she ran to her sister’s side and whispered,
“Don’t get angry, Britney. They don’t know who you are.”
Britney lowered her eyes. “It’s expected, I guess.”
She straightened her back as she walked into the guest room. Barbara followed her and carefully
consoled her.
“Barbara…” She calmly cut her off. “Now that I look like this, will they still ept me as their daughter if
they found out about the truth?”
