Cathy sat there with her legs crossed. “Sherry, I want to eat. What’s with that look on your face? If you don’t cook for me, I’ll tell Gilbert!”
It was midnight. Sherry, half-asleep, finished cooking and it was already morning.
She went to call Cathy to eat, but a pillow was thrown at her. “Go to hell, you bitch. I’m sleeping!”
A flicker of displeasure crossed Gilbert’s eyes. “Cathy did go a bit too far. But it’s understandable for a kid who has lost their parents to be a little willful sometimes.”
Then Cathy told Sherry she was bringing some friends over for dinner and wanted her to cook a whole table of dishes!
Sherry worked from morning till night, making more than ten dishes, until her back ached terribly.
Then she waited in the living room until midnight before Cathy returned.
Sherry asked, “Didn’t you invite your friends over today? Why are you so late? Are you still going to eat?”
Cathy rolled her eyes. “They canceled at the last minute.”
“Why didn’t you tell me? I cooked a whole table of food!”
Cathy immediately snapped. “Are you complaining about me? You stay home all day doing nothing. What right do you have to complain?”
She walked to the table, her face full of disgust.
“You made this garbage? Thank goodness my friends didn’t come, or I would have been utterly humiliated.” She slammed the dishes.
As the plates shattered, Sherry said, “I haven’t eaten all day.”
“You’re lazy and gluttonous. You won’t starve to death if you don’t eat for a day! Stop pretending!” Cathy grabbed her bag and went upstairs.
Scott didn’t dare say a word.
Frankly, seeing this scene, not hitting Cathy would be disrespectful to herself.
Besides, this video was eight hours long! This was only a small part of it.
During the two years Gilbert was focused on Wendy, he never imagined Cathy would do so many bad things to Sherry.
Each and every one of them was shocking. He actually complained that Sherry wasn’t giving in to Cathy. To him, they were both kids. What was wrong with giving in a little?
He thought Sherry was being immature.

But Sherry had truly endured this for two years. If it weren’t for her love for him, who would tolerate such a thing?
Gilbert felt a moment of suffocation and panic, but a feeling of happiness also welled up inside him. Sherry loved him so much.
This love was more intense than anyone else’s. Who wouldn’t be moved by such love?
He wanted nothing more than to rush to Sherry’s side.
But then Lore appeared in the video.
She wasn’t as overtly affectionate as Cathy. She still maintained her aristocratic air.
She was instructing Sherry on how to do chores.
“Did you hear that? Not even a tiny stain can be seen in the entire villa!”
Seeing Sherry had spent the whole day cleaning, Lore pulled out a magnifying glass to inspect her work. “Are you useless? Do you even know how to clean? You need to clean until you can’t see a speck of dust under a microscope!”
This was unacceptable.
Sherry had a temper too. “What exactly do you want? Are you only satisfied when you’ve tormented me?”
Lore looked hurt. “What are you talking about? How can you frame me? I’m just teaching you the basic requirements of a wealthy wife! What do your nouveau riche family know?”
Sherry took off the apron and refused to continue.
At that time, she was still on the Campbells’ side.
She thought the Campbells had treated her badly before because of her illness. Once she recovered, she wanted to make amends to her family. Of course, she wouldn’t accept Lore’s slander of her family.
Lore snorted. “If you don’t do it, I’ll never be nice to Gilbert again. Don’t even think about repairing our relationship. I won’t cooperate at all.”
She looked at her fingernails. “Those traumatized children say they don’t want a mother’s love, but they actually crave it. If Gilbert doesn’t receive a mother’s love because of you, do you think he’ll blame you? I’ll definitely blame you for it.”
Others might not have heeded this fallacy, but Sherry would.
Because she also craved her mother’s love. Gilbert had always longed for it too.
Sherry silently put on the apron and cleaned until Lore woke up the next day. Sherry’s face was as pale as a
