Chapter 163
Steven was right. The Williams family was a terrible bunch; their words always left Skylar feeling battered.
and bruised.
Charles had only heard about this before, but now, he witnessed it firsthand.
Skylar said lightly. “They’re all insane.”
“They’re seriously messed up,” Charles fumed.
“Skylar, I’ll say it one last time. You will no longer be considered my sister if you can’t answer my question. “Samuel acted as if he had found Skylar’s weak spot.
Kenny frowned. “Samuel, things are different now.”
Kenny could see that Skylar didn’t care about their family at all, and it pained him. A few months ago, Skylar still cared about him.
“How are
are things different? She’s found herself some sugar daddy and gone off the deep end. That’s why she doesn’t care about us anymore, isn’t it?” Samuel thought he’d figured everything out. Just like Maisy said, Skylar was cheap.
Skylar felt a rising wave of nausea as Kenny and Samuel spouted their accusations.
“Security!” she called out to two passing guards. “These two lunatics are harassing everyone! Please get
them out of here.”
The two guards immediately approached to subdue Kenny and Samuel. “Lunatics?”
“Yes, lunatics! Take them to the police station, Some mental asylum must be missing them. My sister is really intimidated. She’ll be traumatized for weeks!” Charles chimed in, exaggerating for effect.
Kenny and Samuel were hot under the collar. “Y–You!”
“We’re not lunatics! We know them! That girl is my sister!” Samuel roared at the security guard who had
pinned him to the ground.
Kenny also saw red. “Don’t listen to their nonsense! She’s my sister!”
“This is the latest scam. Even if they aren’t lunatics, they could be human traffickers. My sister’s beautiful.
They might snatch her and take her to some godforsaken corner of South East Otania!” Charles‘ voice trembled with manufactured horror; his acting truly was top–notch.
Skylar immediately hid behind Charles, her voice quivering, “Charles, I’m so scared!”
With such a convincing act, any confusion vanished. Fueled by a desire for justice, the security guards puffed out their chests. “Don’t fret, miss. The law will handle them!”
“Law? Fuck you!” Samuel spat.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
