Chapter 551: Who She Was
The atmosphere around was quiet and gloomy.
Rylee was scared, but she was optimistic as usual. She whistled while her hands were in the pockets.
Suddenly, a sharp honk rose from behind.
Two strong beams shot right at Rylee.
Rylee turned and quickly covered her eyes from the beams. A red car drove by Rylee and slowed
down.
Rylee took a nce of the car and immediately turned around, continuing to walk.
She knew the car. It was Andrea’s Mini Cooper.
“Look at this dusty dirtbag. You’re going home on foot? What a pity. Where’s your motorcycle?
Hahaha…” Andrea was sitting in the backseat, insulting andughing at Rylee.
Rylee could see the mocking smile on the Carroll sisters’ faces as they lowered the car window.
Daphne, who sat beside Andrea, said pretentiously, “Oh my, Caroline, Andrea, I think it’s going to take
about forty minutes to walk home. Is she going to make it?”
Then, Daphne covered her mouth andughed.
Caroline slowed down the car and said, “Well, don’t you worry about that. Rylee, the fourth sister of the
Carroll family, is different from us. Her gene is different. I’m pretty sure it matches with hiking
exercises.”
Andrea pouted, “Caroline, you’re wrong. We don’t have another sister. It was three of us all along.”
Daphne showed apassionate expression, “Sisters, could there be wolves here? Is she going to be
eaten by wolves?”
Caroline nced at Rylee and said, “Barbarians won’t be so easily eaten by wolves. It is a barbarian
we are talking about. She might be the one eating the wolves. We should be going!”
Then, Caroline speeded up the car and drove away.
Rylee, who insisted on walking back home earlier, stopped. She bit her lips, and a tinge of sorrow
appeared on her face, “You all are the barbarians! You’re the jerk! I’m not afraid. I’m not scared of
anything…”
Rylee muttered unyieldingly as she walked. However, her eyes were red.
Rylee knew the Carroll sisters were cruel, but she didn’t expect them to really throw her out of the car
and left her on the hill.
Rylee had got it right.
Blood-rtionship didn’t mean anything at all!
The sky was dark.
Rylee kept walking and walking. Her legs were almost numb. She only arrived at the Carroll manor
after forty minutes of walking.
Rylee covered in cold sweats. A warm breeze blew onto her face as she opened the door exhaustedly.
Rylee’s eyes felt a little ufortable from the bright lights in the house.
Chatters andughter came from the dining hall. Rylee looked over, and she saw the Carroll sisters
having dinner with Brook in their cute pyjamas. They were chatting andughing. The picture seemed
harmonious and warm.
…
It is a picture of a blissful and warm family.
What did it have to do with Rylee?
Who she was?
Rylee smiled bitterly.
Brook heard the door opened. He looked at Rylee and asked in a displeased tone, “Rylee, why did you
come home sote? Haven’t you keep track of time? Ady shouldn’t linger around. Come home right
away after school.”
Daphne quickly said in a cutesy manner, “Father, you see. I’m a good girl, right? I came home super
early.”
Rylee smiled in disdain. Good girl? The Carroll sisters weren’t as obedient as they seemed. They loved
going to the clubs.
The Carroll sisters only came home early because they knew Brook wasing home for dinner
tonight. They were putting up a show.
What a harmonious family. What did it have to do with Rylee?
Rylee remained silent. She changed her shoes, grabbed her backpack and was about to go upstairs to
take a rest.
“I’m talking to you! Say something!” Brook was triggered. He mmed the table and shouted, “You’re
not who you used to be now. You’re a Carroll. You should never be as reckless and irresponsible as
you used to be. You got it?”
Caroline raised her brows and said, “That’s true, sister. Everything we do affects our family reputation.
We aren’t an ordinary family. We’re very much different than where you came.”
Rylee took a deep breath. She continued to remain silent and walked upstairs.
Daphne fanned the mes, “Father, it seems like she’s not taking your words seriously. Look at her.
She didn’t even look at you. She shouldn’t do this to you.”
Brook mmed the table again, looking sulky, “Stay right there, Rylee. I’m talking to you. How dare you
ignore me? What did your mother teach you? Didn’t she tell you that you must listen carefully when
your elders speak? What’s with all these attitudes?”
Andrea shook her head disgustedly.
Rylee was furious. She turned around and red at Brook, then said coldly, “Well, my mother didn’t
teach me that. After all, she didn’t even know the true colour of the man she met before she gave
everything to him. How do you expect she has the mood to teach me such a thing?”
Rylee red at Brook with her bright, big eyes.
Brook had been through many things in his life, but at this moment, he felt restless getting stared at by
Rylee.
Brook waved his hand, “It’s fine. Just learn how to behave with your sisters.”
“There’s nothing to learn from them!” Rylee blurted out coldly, then ran upstairs.

The moment Rylee ran into her room and shut the door, her tears fell uncontrobly.
Rylee leaned on the door, and her knees were weak. She slowly sat on the floor, curled up and cried
silently.
“Mother, why did you give birth to me?”
“Why did you left me?”
“Do you know I have been suffering ever since?”
The Carroll sisters continued enjoying their dinner. The dining hall filled with the sound of the cutleries.
“Oh dear, where did Rylee learn all these attitudes from? Her mother wasn’t as stubborn either.”
…
Brook sighed. He didn’t feel like eating anymore, so he put down his cutleries. Brook recalled how he
treated Rylee, and he regretted it.
Rylee was a tough kid. Brook thought he shouldn’t be so harsh on her, but instead, he needed to be
morepassionate. Brook felt worried, “Rylee went upstairs without having any food. Daphne, go and
get Rylee down to have her dinner.”
Daphne pouted. She didn’t want to.
Why did they have to take care of that wild child?
Brook red at Daphne, “Why are you still here? Go! That’s your sister!”
Caroline smiled and said, “Don’t worry, father. Rylee isn’t a child anymore. She would definitely stay for
dinner if she hadn’t had something to eat. She probably had her dinner outside since she came home
late. So, stop worrying about her.”
Andrea immediately continued, “Exactly. Father, we didn’t tell you this earlier, but in fact, Rylee kept
having dinner outside. This is not the first time it happened.”
Brook’s expression turned sulky. He sighed again, and then said nothing more.
The Carroll sisters exchanged looks and chuckled secretly.
Brook was their father! They wouldn’t allow a wild child to take Brook away from them!
Ryleey on the bed after the shower. She was exhausted.
Rylee worked out too much for the day, and she was dog-tired. Also, she was starving. Rylee hadn’t
had anything to eat after arriving home. She could feel her stomach hurting from starvation.
“Joseph…” Rylee gave Joseph a call while sounded weak.
“What’s up, sissy?”
Joseph was yful. He insisted on calling Rylee ‘sissy’, but Ryle hated it because it sounded too
cheesy.
However, Rylee was too weak to argue with Joseph. She frowned and said, “Joseph, it’s too noisy on
your side.”
Joseph was probably in some clubs. The music was loud, and it was too noisy.
“What? What did you say? Get straight to the point. I’m busy here.”
Busy? Joseph was probably hooking up with some girls.
“I lost my bike. I can’t go to school tomorrow. Can you pleasee and fetch me tomorrow?”
“What? Did you lose your bike? How? Did you be paralyzed, or your legs went numb until you
didn’t notice it was missing? You’re such a dumb-dumb.”
Rylee swore she could hear womenughing in the background. What a pervert!
Rylee was getting impatient. She raised her voice, “Forget it! I could just walk to school! No need to
trouble Mr. Hans.”
Joseph quickly buttered up to Rylee after realizing she got mad, “No, no. I’lle to fetch you.
Anything for you. Curse me if I didn’t keep my promise, alright? Is this the right attitude to ask for
favours from people? You sounded like a lion. See you tomorrow!”
Rylee threw her phone aside, then put a hand on her tummy and curled herself up.
…
The Carroll sisters were still having their breakfast when Rylee got downstairs the next morning. They
put on heavy makeup, which made them looked even more horrible.
The Carroll sisters ignored Rylee when they saw her walking down the stairs.
Suddenly, Andrea’s spoon dropped onto the te. She widened her eyes, and her mouth was opened,
at the same time, she was staring outside the window.
…
“Look! It’s Joseph.”
Caroline and Daphne looked in the direction Andrea pointed at. A silver Ferrari stopped on the porch,
and a handsome guy wearing a pair of sunsses walked out of the car.
When Andrea realized that Joseph was here to fetch Rylee, she bit her lips and tore her napkins.
Why was Joseph so nice to Rylee?
“Hello, my beautiful sissy. Did you sleep wellst night? Did you dream about me?” Joseph leaned on
his car. He kept one of his hands in the pocket while he waved at Rylee with another hand.
Rylee pouted. She felt speechless.
Joseph was vain. He liked to act cool. Rylee wondered where did Joseph learn all these poses from.
“Your arse. It’s better to dream about a pig than to dream about you,” Rylee threw her bag to Joseph
and walked towards the car in style.
