She had nothing left to lose, and she was determined to drag everyone down with her. If she couldn’t have peace, then no one else would either.
Just at this moment, her brother had to come and jinx it.
“Cecilia, have you lost your mind? What are we going to do if you keep this up? I’m supposed to be heading to the station later, you need to apologize quickly, beg them to forgive us. Don’t drag me into this!”
“Drag you into this? What gives you the right to say such words? You’ve lived off me for half your life, and now, you can’t take responsibility when trouble arises?” Cecilia said coldly, “You and dad are both good- for–nothings. You’ve owed me your entire lives!”
The moment Cecilia mentioned ‘Dad‘, Eric’s grip on Joanna’s hand tightened noticeably. However, Joanna was too flustered to notice, fearful of what else Cecilia might say.
“Cecilia, that’s enough,” she said, “You’ve said enough. Since the matter of calling the police has nothing to do with you, you should leave.” Perhaps it was a woman’s intuition toward another woman, but Joanna always felt like something was about to happen.
Cecilia chuckled as she addressed Eric, “Mr. Eric, I am aware that I have wronged your daughter. Now, I have a secret to reveal to you. I hope this will ensure that you will not trouble me in the future.”
Eric’s face had already changed, his voice nearly trembling as he spoke. “Go on, tell me.”
Contrary to expectation, Cecilia wasn’t one for suspense. She was just about to speak when Joanna yelled in terror. “Shut up!”
“So scared, yet still dared to do it?” Cecilia chuckled.
“I didn’t wrong you, did I?” Joanna said in alarm.
Cecilia said, “What do you think? If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been stuck in the orphanage! I could have gone home, instead of playing the role of a fake orphan! Looked down upon, called a stray child with no parents, no one wanting me! Wasn’t all of this because of you? Mrs. Quirk, oh wait, I should say my father’s ex lover
Everyone was still reeling from the shocking revelation made by Cecilia just moments ago, and now they found themselves again shaken to their core.
An old flame?
So, was Cecilia the daughter of Joanna’s former lover?
It seemed as though everything finally made sense. After all, what mother doesn’t love her own child? Unless, of course, she didn’t love the child’s father and instead harbored feelings for another man.
Therefore, Joanna, for the sake of her ex lover’s children, not only adopted his daughter but also arranged for her own daughter to marry his son. No matter how despicable his character was, in Joanna’s eyes, he could do no wrong. She was even willing to sacrifice her own children for him.
This was nothing short of favoring outsiders over one’s own. She was essentially bleeding the Quirk family
