“Elder sister, you must be mistaken!” Rose said, shaking her head in disbelief. I think the events of today have left you so shaken that you’re imagining things. You’re speaking rudely to everyone, and it’s not like you at all. Maybe you should rest for a while,” she suggested, trying to sound calm. 

“Yes, Lily,” Ryan chimed in, agreeing with Rose. “Let’s all take a break. We can talk this over tomorrow.” 

Lily let out a cold laugh. “Are you both still denying it? I gave you the chance to confess, yet you’ve chosen to lie. Don’t blame me later for what happens next.” 

I’ve already told you everything. Rose snapped, her voice sharper now. “What happened was because of 

drug–that’s all! You’re just refusing to accept the truth”

Lily smirked, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Oh, the ever–innocent Rose! Do you honestly believe that everyone around you is foolish while you alone possess all the intelligence in the world? Or do you think I’m blind?” 

She paused, glaring at her younger sister. “If you’re going to make excuses, at least put some effort into them. Drugs? Seriously? You’ve used drugs to harm me before–during Director Young’s banquet, and now this! Tell me, is this some strange obsession of yours? A drug habit to ruin people’s lives?” 

Without waiting for a response, she continued mockingly, “Well, that’s great news! When I start tearing apart your acting career piece by piece, maybe you can use your experience to open a drugstore. Doesn’t that sound perfect?” 

Rose’s fists clenched tightly. “Are you threatening me?” she asked, her voice trembling with a mix of rage and fear. 

“Threatening you? Oh, no,” Lily replied smoothly, her lips curling into a smile. “Don’t flatter yourself. I wouldn’t waste my time threatening trash like you. Let’s just call it a glimpse into your future.” 

“Enough!” Rose snapped, her composure beginning to crack. “You’re crossing the line, elder sister! I’ve been patient, speaking to you politely, and yet you keep accusing me of things I haven’t done. I won’t stand for this nonsense any longer!” 

Rose was on the verge of exploding. Her anger had been simmering, and now it was boiling over. She had endured Lily’s accusations silently up until now, only out of respect for their father. But she wasn’t going to take it anymore. Lily was just a servant in her eyes–she had no right to talk to her this way! 

“Oh, so everything I say is nonsense, is it?” Lily chuckled darkly. “Alright then. Let’s assume, for a moment. that your story is true–that you were drugged today and that’s why you ended up with Ryan. Fine. But tell me something, dear sister. If that’s the case, then how do you explain the past year? How many times have you been ‘drugged to end up in bed with him?” 

Rose’s face went pale. “W–what are you talking about?” she stammered, her voice barely audible. 

“Am I speaking” 

g’nonsense?” Lily asked, crossing her arms. “Do you really think I wouldn’t find out about the little affair between you and my so–called ‘boyfriend? Don’t insult my intelligence, Rose.” 

Ryan froze in shock. So she knew. She had known all along that he was cheating on her. Panic set in, but he quickly tried to regain control. “Lily, you’ve got it all wrong! There’s- 

“There’s what?” Lily interrupted, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “There’s nothing going on between you and Rose? You love me? I’m the only one in your heart?” She mimicked his words mockingly. “Blah, blah, blah Ryan you’re not a broken record son ston acting like one Her eves narrowed as she leaned closer “Oh

Ryan stood there, speechless, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water. He didn’t know how to respond. 

Suddenly, a snicker broke the tense silence. Everyone turned to see Taylor barely holding back his laughter. 

“What’s so funny?” Morgan snapped at his son, glaring at him. 

Taylor raised his hands in mock surrender, grinning. “What? Don’t look at me like that. It was funny.” 

“Control yourself!” Morgan barked. 

“Fine, fine.” Taylor replied, stilling his laughter. “I’ll behave. Please, carry on.” 

Lily ignored the exchange and turned her attention back to her younger sister. A sly smirk played on her lips. “So, my dear little sister, do you have anything to say?” 

Rose felt her stomach churn. She realized there was no point in denying it any longer. The truth was out. But what baffled her was how Lily had discovered everything. She had been so careful, leaving no traces. Yet here they were, her secrets laid bare. 

Her thoughts were interrupted by a glance from their father. His subtle gesture was clear: follow his lead. Taking a deep breath, Rose bit her lip and fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face. 

“Elder sister,” she sobbed, her voice trembling. “I’m so sorry. I’ll tell you everything. I… Ryan and I are in love. We’ve been in a relationship for a while now.” She choked back a sob, clutching her chest dramatically. “I wanted to tell you, but I didn’t know how. I was scared. We love each other deeply, and I didn’t want you to find out like this.”
