A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 356

"Emi, don't say it like that. We understand now—it was our fault back then. We shouldn't have made you do housework. No, we shouldn't have even brought up the idea of making you a housekeeper. We were flustered and didn't make the best decision. I'm sorry," Daniel said.

Demi couldn't help but laugh.

"Every time you were in a panic, you still managed to protect Ana perfectly fine. When you made me a housekeeper, when the car caught fire—you always made me the one to be cast aside while keeping Ana safe and sound.

"That day, right after you slammed the car door, you didn't forget to pull Ana into your arms and run. And the moment I was swallowed by the flames, I was sure I heard you ask Ana if she was cold. Mrs. Pitt even instinctively ordered me to get Ana some clothes

"See? Even in a panic, you all handled it flawlessly." Demi sneered.

She continued, "Unfortunately, I was probably at death's door back then and failed to serve Ms. Pitt. I didn't fulfill my duties as a housekeeper and assistant. Should I apologize to you all here and now?"

Demi wore a brilliant smile, but it looked like it was carved from ice—sharp with mockery and cold glints.

She heard Michelle asking her to give Ana clothes because, at that point, she had already returned from the world of cultivation. She could hear anything within a hundred-mile radius if she willed it.

Especially if someone mentioned her name—she would sense it.

The Pitts remained silent, and Thomas lowered his head in shame.

Margaret's eyes instantly reddened with tears. Was this how these scoundrels acted as parents and brothers? But Demi was their biological daughter and real sister!

"Emi, we admit it—we were wrong in everything. We'll change from now on. Come back to the Pitts with us. We'll live together in harmony and slowly make it up to you," Daniel said softly.

"So, you'd better be careful not to lose all your wealth and influence. After all, Ana needs your protection so desperately!"

As soon as Demi said this, the Ptts' expressions darkened in an instant.

Harold pointed at the tastefully and luxuriously decorated living room and shouted, "Demi, how did you get this big villa? Don't tell me you bought it with your own money! Demi, you're my sister. That's the only reason I held back until now.

"But since we're on the topic, I can't help but ask. Are you really willing to become some old man's—"

Demi's already cold smile turned glacial instantly.

No one saw how the cups in front of Harold and Alex ended up in Demi's hands. With a cup in each hand, Demi flung both cups of tea straight into Harold's face.
