Lydia looked completely unfazed. “She’s just Mr. Brown’s daughter from Maple Town, right? So what? It’s not like she’s the only mayor’s daughter around. What’s there to brag about?”
Mrs. Brown’s eyes went wide. She clearly wasn’t used to anyone standing up to her. Mona just stared, not believing what she was hearing. Lydia’s comebacks were even harsher than Juna’s had been earlier.
“Well, aren’t you a sassy little thing. Who are your parents, anyway?”
Lydia arched a brow. “Why should I tell you? If you’re that curious, go find out yourself.”
Mona was fuming. “Mikey is my boyfriend. Stay away from him.”
Lydia just smirked. “Did he ever actually say you were his girlfriend?”
Mona was about to cry again. She clung to Mrs. Brown’s arm. “Mom, do something. Don’t just let her talk to me like that.”
Instead, Mrs. Brown turned toward Mikey. “Mikey, not only do you refuse to take care of my daughter, but you’re just going to stand there and let them bully her?”
She sounded every bit like a future mother-in-law, already plotting the wedding in her head.
Mikey sighed. “Mrs. Brown, I’ve already explained. It was all a misunderstanding.”
Mrs. Brown shook her head. “I don’t care what you call it. The fact is, you saw my daughter’s body. She’s our only daughter. Are you saying she’s not good enough for you?”
Juna let out a loud scoff. “She threw herself at him and now you want to make it sound like she’s the victim. Like mother, like daughter, I guess.”
Now it wasn’t just Mona who looked like she might faint. Mrs. Brown’s face turned almost purple.
“And you, who are you supposed to be?”
Juna tilted her chin. “Juna Davis. Remember the name.”
Mrs. Brown paused, thinking, then her face twisted into a sneer. “Oh, just a merchant’s daughter. And you dare talk to us like that?”
Juna didn’t back down. “What’s wrong with being from a merchant family? At least we have some class. Can’t say the same for you. You give Mr. Brown a bad name.”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
