When Lily heard her father’s question, Morgan hesitated for a moment before speaking. To him, Lily was a vital piece in his plans, a chess piece he couldn’t afford to lose. He recalled her earlier bold words, which made him tread carefully. He didn’t want to risk provoking her emotions further, as it might lead to unpredictable consequences. 

“Lily, why did you do this? What made you go against my decision?” he asked cautiously, his tone soft and fatherly. 

Lily, feigning innocence, replied, “What have I done to deserve such extreme reactions from all of you?” 

Watching her father address Lily so gently, Rose couldn’t contain her frustration. He was speaking kindly to her, while moments ago, he had been shouting at her. Unable to control her emotions, she burst out, “Are you still pretending, Lily? Just admit it–you’re rebelling against us. You just want to-” But before she could finish, she caught her father’s sharp, disapproving glare and immediately fell silent. 

“Rebel? I don’t understand. Other than Rose, can someone explain to me what’s going on?” Lily asked, looking directly at her father with wide, questioning eyes. 

Morgan let out a weary sigh, feeling the onset of a headache from all the commotion. Pointing to the TV, he asked, “Lily, what is the meaning of this?” 

Turning her attention to the screen, Lily saw the news and smirked briefly. Quickly masking her expression, she exclaimed in an excited tone, “Oh my God! I almost forgot. This is my surprise for you all! Wait-” She looked around dramatically and added, “Wait a second… Rose, were you accusing me because of this? Is this what had everyone so worried?” 

Morgan, trying to maintain his composure, said, “Lily, I’ve told you before that you are not to enter the entertainment industry. Why did you go against my wishes?” 

“Father, that was before. Now that my identity is out in the open, I thought I could finally pursue my dream,” she explained earnestly. 

“But why didn’t you discuss this decision with us beforehand?” Morgan asked, shaking his head in disappointment. 

“I wanted it to be a surprise!” Lily replied cheerfully. “Aren’t you all happy? I can finally become an actress. You know how much I love acting. What’s wrong with that?” 

“Wrong? Everything about this is wrong!” Rose shouted, unable to hold back her anger. “You don’t want to be an actress–you just want to compete with me. You’re jealous of me! You want to take everything that’s 

mine.” 

She glared at Lily and continued accusingly, “That’s why you did all this, isn’t it? You want to steal my fame, my fans, and my career. Am I right, Lily?” 

Lily crossed her arms and let out a sarcastic snort. “Which career are you even talking about, Rose? You think I want to take everything from you? Let me remind you–everything you have, your so–called career, your fame, your fans, all of it came from me. Never forget that.” 

Her voice sharpened as she continued, “You didn’t build your career by yourself, and deep down, you know it. I worked behind the scenes on all your major films. So don’t you dare stand here and act like you’ve achieved everything on your own.”

your servant. If I could help you rise, I can just as easily tear it all down. Trust me, Rose, it wouldn’t even take me a minute to destroy everything you hold dear.” 

She said it boldly, her confidence stemming from a hidden truth. Lily knew that Morgan had his own agenda for keeping her in the family. She wasn’t oblivious to the fact that she was a pawn in his larger scheme. Until he achieved whatever goal he had, he had to maintain peace with her, his so–called daughter. Knowing this, she fearlessly spoke her mind, even in front of her entire family. 

Rose’s face turned red with anger at her sister’s defiance. “Are you challenging me, Lily?” she snapped. 

Before the situation escalated further, Ryan, who had been silently observing from the side, decided it was time to intervene. If he played his cards right, he could calm the situation and make himself appear as the hero to both sisters. That thought brought a smug smile to his face. 

“Lily, calm down,” Ryan said, stepping forward with a composed tone. “Rose is your sister, and-”
