Chapter 1566


    Since Angeline was quick-witted, she immediately understood her brother''s implied meaning.


    "Mom just thinks that Jaybie shouldn''t be waiting on me because she’s stubbornly set in her old


    ways." Angeline was seething.


    Zayne continued, "You can trample all over him when there are no outsiders around. But you should


    at least y pretend around his family."


    Angeline rolled her eyes at him. She was contemptuous of Zayne''s proposal.


    She wanted to continue being herself in front of everyone.


    However, Zayne’s little reminder had also evoked her feelings of sadness and made her recall her


    wounds.


    Chloe disliked her, and she felt ufortable around Chloe. It was as if there were a couple of dark


    clouds above her head, making her feel very depressed and gloomy.


    If Chloe were someone else, Angeline could avoid her entirely out of fear. However, Chloe was her


    mother-inw. She would not be able to shake off this cloud her entire life.


    She felt awful just thinking about it.


    When Jay came out, he noticed Angeline''s legs were tightly closed together and her hands were


    wrapped around them. She had ced her chin on her knees and her ck-zed pupils stared


    nkly at the front with a puzzled look.


    Jay''s mood turned inexplicably heavy as well.


    He had heard Zayne and Angeline’s conversation, but he did not expect Zayne''s little prompt to


    draw out Angeline’s depression on such arge scale.


    Moreover, even if he racked his head, he could not find a way to resolve the conflict between the


    mother-i nw and daughter-inw.


    Josephine nced at the dejected Angeline and then back at the aloof Zayne and Jay. Then, she


    decided to voice out against the injustice.


    "Zayne, why should Sis Angeline change who she is for her mother-inw? You guys are merely


    thinking about the fact that since Angeline''s the daughter-inw, she should be respecting her and


    trying her best t o please her.


    "But need I remind the two of you that her mother-inw had tried to harm her again and again. Sis


    Angeline was willing to force herself to forget about the past just for Jay’s sake. Frankly speaking,


    it’s impossible to reconcile with enemies who have caused death. You don’t even know if Sis


    Angeline haspletely forgiven her.

    "The fact that you’re asking Sis Angeline to please an enemy who had murdered her, aren''t you


    making things too hard on her?"


    Whenever someone mentioned the issues Angeline had with her mother-inw, she would turn frail.


    "It''s alright, Josie, don''t continue."


    She would rather think of herself as a snail, shrinking herself into her shell, than try to analyze these


    complex emotions. She was even more reluctant to face the chaotic situation.


    She merely wanted to take things one step at a time.


    There must be a road to take once she reached the junction.


    Jay''s faint gaze fell on Angeline''s nk expression. H e walked over and sat down gently beside


    her.


    "Angeline, I know that it must be difficult for you to forgive my parents. But, I do hope that for my


    sake, you''re able to slowly let go of the past hatred."


    Jay knew how painful it was to live while holding onto past grudges.


    He did not want Angeline to live such a life.


    Jay''s almost pleading attitude dissolved the barriers and obstruction in Angeline''s heart.


    She nodded at Jay. "Don’t worry, Jaybie. I’ll not bear grudges against them."


    Jay and Angeline now felt slightly relieved.


    Only Josie''s eyes showed hints of worry. She was a girl and Angeline''s best friend, so she knew


    best that what Angeline needed was not to hide her grievances. Instead, she needed to let them


    out.


    Otherwise, there was a chance for a tiny me of hatred to catch fire someday.
