After noticing that Lily had calmed down slightly, both Morgan and Casey exhaled in relief. Turning to his daughter, Morgan’s tone grew firm as he instructed, “Apologize to your elder sister.” 

“What?!” Rose exclaimed, utterly taken aback. Her defiance was immediate. “Dad, I’m not apologizing to her!” 

Morgan’s sharp gaze landed on his daughter, his voice leaving no room for argument. “This isn’t a request, Rose. I’m telling you to apologize. You made a mistake, and you must take responsibility for it.” 

But Rose crossed her arms defiantly. “You can say whatever you want, but I won’t apologize to her.” 

“Rose- 

Before her father could continue, Lily interjected with a sigh. “Father, it’s fine,” she said, her voice calm but distant. Glancing at the clock, she added, “It’s getting late. I think I should leave now.” 

Casey immediately stepped forward, her tone soft as she tried to stop her. “Lily, wait. Don’t go yet. Let’s have dinner together. I’ll ask the staff to prepare your room.” She offered a hopeful smile. 

But Lily shook her head with a faint, weary smile. “When there’s no place for me in your hearts, how could there ever be a place for me in this house?” Her words were heavy with meaning, cutting through the room like a knife. “Anyway, goodnight, Father. Goodnight, Mother.” 

With that, Lily turned on her heel and left, her footsteps echoing through the grand hall of the Miller Mansion. 

Once outside, she took a deep breath, her somber expression melting into one of exhilaration. A triumphant laugh escaped her lips as she whispered to herself, “That felt incredible!” 

Her eyes gleamed with satisfaction as she thought about what had unfolded. Rose, you started this mess, and now your father is furious with you. What will you do next? A sly smile curved her lips. Don’t worry, this is just the beginning. There’s so much more to come. Your troubles have only begun. 

Inside the Miller Mansion, Rose let out an exasperated sigh once Lily was gone. “Good riddance! Now that she’s gone, I can finally breathe. But, Dad,” she added, ignoring her mother’s subtle gestures to stop, “you have to find a way to keep her out of the entertainment industry. I don’t want her becoming an actress.” 

At this, Morgan lost his composure entirely. “Enough!” he thundered. His voice shook the room, silencing Rose. 

“This is all your fault!” he continued, his fury evident. “How many times have I told you not to provoke Lily? How many times did I warn you to treat her with respect? But no, you had to disobey me. If I lose my influence over Lily because of your actions, don’t expect me to act like a good father to you anymore.” 

Rose stared at her father, stunned, as he vented his anger. 

“From the time you were young, I’ve given you everything you ever wanted. I spoiled you because you are my daughter, my pride. When you asked to make Lily your substitute, I went along with it. I never stood in your way.” 

“When you insisted on publicizing your relationship with Ryan, I told you it was a terrible idea. I warned you over and over, but you ignored me. Do you even remember what you said back then? You claimed you’d handle it flawlessly, that Lily wouldn’t find out anything. And yet, here we are.”

He gestured angrily at the door Lily had walked through moments before. “This mess is on you, Rose. You created this situation, and now we’re all paying the price for your recklessness.” 

Seeing Morgan’s face flush with anger, Casey quickly moved to his side. Her voice was soft but urgent as she pleaded, “Darling, please calm down. This isn’t good for your health.” 

Morgan shook his head, his frustration evident. “And what she did wasn’t good for my plans! You know that, Casey. This mess–this entire disaster–is your daughter’s doing. What are we supposed to do now?” 

“We’ll think of something,” Casey réassured him, placing a hand on his arm. “Please, just take a moment to breathe.” 

Rose, still reeling from the scolding she had just received, felt tears well up in her eyes. Her father, who had always treated her like his little princess, was now shouting at her. And all because of that woman–Lily! 

“Why is everyone blaming me?” Rose cried, her voice trembling with a mix of anger and disbelief. “What did I do wrong?” 

Morgan fixed his piercing gaze on her. “When I asked you to apologize to her, why didn’t you do it? It was just a simple apology. Was that really so difficult for you to manage?” 

Rolling her eyes in defiance, Rose snapped, “Dad, you know me better than anyone. Do you honestly think I’d ever apologize to her? To her?” She scoffed, her tone dripping with disdain. “How could you even expect me to apologize to that orphan?” 

Her voice grew sharper, more cutting. “I’ll never say sorry to a servant. That’s all she is—a servant wearing the title of your eldest daughter. Do you really think someone like her is worthy of my apology? She’s just a low–class, illegitimate child, nothing more.” 

A bitter laugh escaped Morgan as he stared at his daughter, his expression a mix of disbelief and disappointment. “A low–class, illegitimate child? Rose, you couldn’t be more wrong.“. 

Rose froze, her confusion evident. “What do you mean, Dad?” 

“You think Lily is just some orphan I brought into this family on a whim?” he began, his tone heavy with significance. “Do you even understand why I adopted her? Why she’s here, living under this roof?” 

Rose’s eyes narrowed as she tried to comprehend his words. “What are you saying, Dad?” 

“She’s not who you think she is,” Morgan said coldly. “Rose, you aren’t even worthy of being her servant. Lily is far more noble than anyone in this room, including you.” 

His words hit Rose like a thunderclap. Her jaw dropped, and she instinctively clenched her fists. Standing beside her, Ryan ‘s eyes narrowed in suspicion. “What do you mean by that? How could an orphan like her be nobler than us?” 

Morgan leaned back slightly, his voice turning calm yet commanding. “Have you ever heard of the prestigious families?”
