The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 266

Chapter 265 She Didn’t Care Anymore

The entire hall went completely silent.

Everyone stared at each other.

What on earth …

What’s going on here?

Don’t Justin and Kayden know?

Tilda has already cut ties with the Jensons. Things had gotten completely out of control.

And now Justin and Kayden are at the Orica University orientation party, not just for Kyla, but for Tilda too?

They even composed a new piano piece just for Tilda?

The atmosphere instantly turned tense and awkward.

Up on the stage, Justin and Kayden didn’t notice anything.

They were focused on playing the piano.

The music flowed like water, each one dancing perfectly.

It was like calm moonlight under the ocean’s surface–soft, pure, and peaceful.

“Tilda… w–what is going on?”

Una couldn’t make sense of it.

She was completely confused.

Tilda responded, “Looks like the Jensons did a perfect job hiding all this drama from their sons who were abroad. Justin and Kayden, who just returned and are focused on the orientation party, have no idea about everything that happened between me and the Jensons.”

After listening to her, Una stayed quiet for a moment, pressing her lips together.

“So… maybe not all the Jensons are jerks like Wade, Dominic, and Howard. There are still brothers who actually care about

you.

“Now that’s what a normal brother looks like!”

Not like Wade and the others back then.

When they finally found their sister, who had been missing for 19 years, they treated her with distance and coldness.

They even cursed her and wished Tilda would just disappear so she wouldn’t embarrass them or ruin the family’s reputation.

“Normal? Yeah… I guess that’s normal.”

Tilda’s lips curved into a bitter smile.

She looked up at the stage at her so–called brothers, Justin and Kayden.

Her eyes showed no emotion.

All she felt was ice–cold.

Tilda didn’t hate Justin and Kayden as much as she hated Russell and the others.

Because when she first returned to the Jensons, those two brothers genuinely wanted to accept her.

Back then, Tilda was caught up in the swirl of family love, thinking she could win over her other brothers and parents by being sincere.

After all, they were her family by blood!

However…

When sunlight hits a dark corner but can’t get rid of all the shadows, even the sunlight becomes tainted.

Just like Blair, their kindness toward Tilda only tied her down to the Jensons and made her life miserable.

Their kindness only showed up when Kyla wasn’t around.

Whenever Kyla was involved, anything related to Kyla, Tilda would be pushed aside.

Kyla was always the most important sister to Justin and Kayden.

Tilda was just a replaceable spare, nothing more.

Just like at this orientation party.

Kyla would always come first.

Tilda would always come later.

In her previous life, Tilda tried to follow what her family called “good advice.”

Don’t try to compete with Kyla.

Kyla was the younger, adopted sister. Her feelings were already sensitive and fragile.

Tilda coming back only made things harder.

Kyla could always act sweet and friendly to welcome Tilda to the Jensons, always speaking up for herself.

So, just being able to get little attention from Justin and Kayden was already lucky for her.

She couldn’t expect more than what didn’t belong to her.

Kyla had lived with the Jensons for 18 years.

Even without blood ties, that kind of time together couldn’t be erased.

Tilda might be their biological family, but after losing so many years, things were bound to be distant.

So, Tilda kept swallowing her pride.

And that iet Kyla walk all over her.

Even Justin and Kayden, who originally wanted to treat Tilda well, slowly grew distant. They looked down on her and doubted everything she did.

This lifetime, Tilda didn’t care anymore.

Let Justin and Kayden spoil whoever they wanted, put whoever they wanted first.

Treat me like a spare?

Hah!

I wasn’t joining this ridiculous game anymore!

“Let’s go, Una.”

Tilda put her hands in her pockets, turned around, and walked out of the hall.

“Huh? Tilda?”

Una froze for a moment.

She felt like Tilda seemed a little different.

But Una was her best friend.

She could feel it.

Even if Justin and Kayden weren’t as bad as the other jerks at the Jensons, Tilda wasn’t going to forgive them.

Things could never go back to the way they were.

So, Una quietly followed Tilda outside.

The song finished.

Kyla watched the live broadcast.

She bit her lip.

Her eyes flickered with unease.

She figured it out, too.

Tilda, do you really think you’re better than me? That you’ve beaten me and can be so proud of yourself?

There are things I have that you’ll never get, not ever!

You can cry, beg, or do whatever you want, but you’ll never have them!

That is the love and attention of the Jensons!

As long as I’m here, I’ll always be the one everyone cares about first! Always me!

Not you, the socalled bloodrelated sister, who has nothing to do with the family and only brings harm as a traitor!

Where did she go?

Was it because Kyla and I were there, so she didn’t want to come?

Tilda, did you hear the piano piece Justin and Kayden made just for you?

Did it touch your heart at all? Did it remind you of the bond we used to share?

Do you understand that the blood that ties us together can never be cut entirely?

You are the daughter of our family, our biological sister!

And once again, Tilda’s heart fell to the very bottom, cold as ice.

What the heck?

Why is she calling me an inflated ego?

I’m not that!

Is she obsessed with calling me that or what?

Preston had been waiting outside the main hall of Orica University the whole time.

He was there partly because of Kyla, and partly for Tilda.

He had been busy with work lately. At the same time, Wade, keeping his promise to Justin and Kayden, made up all sorts of excuses to keep the family from coming to Orica University.

He did it so he could go back with Justin and Kayden and give the family a big surprise.

Even though Preston couldn’t get inside the main hall, he could still watch the live broadcast and see everyone’s reactions. inside.

But he never expected Kyla to mess up her performance.

It was so embarrassing.

Preston’s perfect image of Kyla was starting to fall apart.

On the other hand, Tilda, wearing a gorgeous red evening gown, gave an impressive speech. Confident and elegant, she really stood out.

Preston felt his heart skip a beat.

He thought about his plan to win Tilda’s favor and get rid of the proof.

At the same time, he wanted to show that he was more attractive than Jarrett, even better than Jude!

It was like a male instinct to compete. He wanted to win and be the best.

Now, Preston couldn’t stop thinking about Tilda.

He wanted to take her away from Jarrett and Jude.

He wanted to prove himself.

After that desire grew, he kept imagining Tilda’s face.

Honestly, her skin looked even fairer and softer than Kyla’s.

He wondered what it would feel like to touch her.

Even so, Preston knew in his heart that Kyla was the one he truly loved.

After all these years, his first love stayed deep inside him, impossible to forget.

In his heart, Kyla would always come first.

Tilda was just someone he was using for his own gain.

But he didn’t mind having a secret relationship with Tilda.

If she wanted, he would agree to make her his secret lover

As long as it didn’t mess up his future with Kyla or his plan to gain influence in the Jensons.

He thought he could give Tilda a little love.

If she behaved well and pleased him, he might even allow her to bear his child and live in luxury.

While waiting outside the hall, Preston saw Tilda and Una coming out. He quickly followed them.

Chapter 266 Couldn’t Stop Thinking About Tilda

He finally managed to block Tilda’s way.

Tilda didn’t care at all what Preston was thinking.

If she knew the gross thoughts in his head, she would kick him so hard he’d be in serious trouble.

She grabbed Una’s hand and pulled her away.

“Tilda, wait … don’t tell me you forgot what I told you before.

“I really have something important to talk to you about. Let’s talk properly.”

Preston kept bothering her.

Finished

Tilda snapped, “Preston, are you crazy? Your beloved Kyla is still in the hall embarrassing herself, and you’re wasting time bothering me?*
