"Rachael knows that today is Grandma's 80th birthday, so she came here to celebrate. Emmalee, please don't blame her!" Alicia said with a smile. She got up and walked in front of me, "Rachael, don't be angry. Emmalee and grandma haven't seen you for a long time, so they aren't used to it!"
I cast a cold look at Alicia. This woman had always been so good at putting on a show, but I had to admit that she was so good. I got closer to Alicia and said coldly, "You have become a better actress since I saw you last!" Then, I shook off her hand and sat down on the sofa in the corner, far away from this disgusting group of people.
"Alicia, you are too kind. Why do you care about such a bitch who has no good manners? Even a strayed dog is more sensible than her!" Emmalee cursed out loud and walked over to curry favor with Alicia. She pulled her to her side.
Although Emmalee looked somewhat beautiful, when it came to cultivation and temperament, she had none of these. Even the way she wore clothes was tacky. She was a model, but today, she was wearing an extremely gorgeous red short skirt on such an occasion. Not only were her shoulders exposed, but even her breasts were almost revealed. The skirt was so short that her underwear could be seen with a glance. She looked like a girl from a clubhouse.
However, Emmalee did not feel anything improper. Instead, she twisted her waist and kept showing off her shape.
"What Emmalee said is right. You are too kind. Listen to me, you can't always think for others. You need to think for yourself!" Kaliyah looked at Alicia with a loving expression. Then, she joined Emmalee's and Alicia's hand and said, "Alicia, look at you and Emmalee. You don't have the same parents, but you look exactly the same. But there's that bastard. How can she be so lousy to her own little sister?" As Kaliyah spoke, she shot me a disdainful glance, as if I was even more disgusting than a plague.
I sneered as I watched the mother and daughter keep belittling me in order to flatter Alicia. Sometimes, people could become so repugnant!
Emmalee held her sister's hand, sat next to Alicia and winked at Kaliyah. Kaliyah smiled at Emmalee and said, "Shania, who is the most capable person in our family? It's Alicia. Look at her. Not only is she pretty, she is also smart. She actually managed to find a boyfriend with such a distinguished status like Mr. Redford. How amazing!"
Shania waved her hand and pretended to be humble, but her eyes were filled with arrogance. "It's just Marlon and Alicia fell in love with each other at first sight. But speaking of which, Marlon is both handsome and capable. Most importantly, he treats Alicia well! If he doesn't, no matter how good his conditions are, I won't bear to see my daughter suffer!"
As soon as Shania finished her words, I sneered. No matter how extraordinary Marlon's conditions were, they would not agree if he was not good to Alicia!
This was the funniest joke I had ever heard.
"What are you laughing at, you bastard? Look at yourself. You have such a disgusting face and flat boobs. You aren't even a woman! How can you have the gut to laugh at Alicia? No man will ever want someone like you!" Emmalee spat at me with contempt in her eyes.
"That's right. Alicia has such a good boyfriend like Marlon, and she's getting engaged next Saturday. Look at yourself. You're 24 years old, but you haven't achieved anything. What's the difference between you and a loser? Even a loser is better than you!" Kaliyah said.
"Why do you care about that little bastard? She has the same unpromising character as her mother. No one will want her even if she goes clingy and relentless with men!" Marisa, who was sitting on the main seat, said coldly without even looking at me.
I suddenly stood up and stared coldly at Marisa. She was my grandmother, my biological grandmother, but she was even crueler than my enemy.
