Chapter 2 Demanding An Explanation Upon hearing the news, Angela was initially stunned, and suddenly, some
vague memories becclear. In 2004, she was nineteen years old and had just started university. On the way
hwith Fanny, they encountered a few gangsters, and both of them were injured while resisting. Although
Angela was more seriously injured, her entire family thought it was all her fault and sought justice for Fanny
instead. Her forehead was cut open and stitched up, while Fanny only had a small bump on her forehead.
However, Angela was accused of ‘instigating the gangsters to harm her sister.” In her previous life, her so-called
father had questioned her in the smanner. She tried to explain and apologize, but all she received was cold
indifference. No one would believe her words. So, this time, she didn’t plan to explain either. After all, no one
would believe her even if she did. Angela regained her composure and asked calmly, “But did she die?” George's
pupils contracted; he paused for a moment and then angrily shouted at Angela, “Angela, that’s inhumane!
How can you be so malicious and curse your sister to death?!” Angela's oldest brother James was even more
furious. He rushed toward Angela and glared down at her. “Angela, | can’t believe our family has someone as

outside.” Angela simply looked deeply at him without saying a word. Several other brothers wanted to accuse
Angela, but they were stopped by Scarlet. Sitting by the hospital bed, holding Angela’s hand, Scarlet smiled
tenderly. “Angela, | know that you have suffered a lot since you were little because you were mistakenly taken
away. After we brought you back, we have been trying to make it up for you and let you continue your studies.
Now you are in university. Many girls your age don’t even have the chance to go to middle school or high school.
You should be grateful.” Scarlet’s eyes gradually turned red as she continued. “You shouldn't have harmed your
sister like this.
Reputation is more important than life for a girl. Although she was switched at birth, she was raised by us since
she was young. | treat you all equally, so you shouldn't have any prejudice against her, okay?” It was grand, but
looking at the hypocritical face in front of her and recalling what Scarlet said before she died, Angela felt a chill
in her body and mind. It was colder than holding an ice block. The opportunity to study given by the Kins Family
was indeed quite rare.
But is it not to silence those gossipers and show off that every member of the Kins Family is a college graduate,
right? Fanny lives in the princess room while I live in the storeroom. | have leftovers for meals and only have
hand-me-downs from Fanny. And they have the audacity to say that they treat both of us equally? Is this a joke?
Moreover, Angela was injured like this, and they not only showed no concern but also cspecifically to
interrogate and blher. Without understanding the situation, they only knew how to blindly blher. Angela
sneered and didn’t want to say a word. Samuel, the fourth son in the family, couldn't bear it anymore and
shouted at Angela, “Angela, you've gone too far! You've done such outrageous things to Fanny, and you still dare
to say it’s not your fault? It’s fine if you usually cause trouble, but now you even curse her! You're evil!”
Zacharias, the third one, also chimed in, “Angela, don’t be ungrateful for the blessings you were born into.
Everything you have now was given to you by the Kins Family. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really
want to drive Fanny to death before you're satisfied?” Joseph, the second, opened his lips, wanting to say
something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything. However, disappointment was clearly written on his face.
Angela calmly withdrew her hand, her eyes calm. She turned her head to the side, no longer wanting to argue

everything you said, so how do you plan to punish me?” Angela asked. As soon as these words were spoken, the
room fell silent. It seemed that they hadn't expected Angela to say this, and Scarlet’s eyes showed a hint of
dissatisfaction. George sighed and said, “Since that’s the case, | need you to give Fanny the opportunity to
deliver the Brundelian speech. You can take a break for now and apply next year.” The reason Angela applied for
this Brundelian speech competition was because of a boy named Christopher.
She wanted to have more contact with him. Although she didn’t particularly like her major, she had been
studying very hard for Christopher, and everyone could see that. Everyone present thought she would cry and
make a fuss, but who knew... Angela smiled and said, “Okay.” Her answer was too quick, leaving everyone a bit
stunned. “Anything else Fanny wants? | can give them to her too.” From childhood to adulthood, such things had
happened too many times, and Angela always thought that if she endured it, it would pass. However, she
realized now that she had been wrong. Taking a step back didn’t always lead to better prospects. Sometimes, it
would just make her bullies corner her further.
