The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70 They’re Looking at You

Clive cleared his throat a couple of times before speaking.

“I didn’t want to say anything, but since you’re my buddy, I’ll be straight with you.

“Wade, you guys truly went too far this time.”

Clive could kind of understand, though. The Jensons had raised Kyla for 18 years, watched her grow, and built memories with her.

So when Tilda, who had been missing for 19 years, suddenly came back, it was hard for them to accept. They were unsure how to treat her and also worried about hurting Kyla. That part made sense.

But what didn’t make sense was how the Jensons handled it.

They misunderstood, humiliated, and even gave her the cold shoulder.

Clive actually felt bad for Tilda.

Coming back home was supposed to mean reuniting with family. Instead, she was treated worse than a stray dog.

“Yeah, I know it was wrong. But I couldn’t stop it. I’ve also done things to Tilda I can’t take back.

“At least she cut ties with us before my other brothers did something worse.

“But I was the only one at home at that time. As her real brother, I forced Tilda to cut off her favorite long hair. And right in front of her, I said Kyla’s hair was prettier, even though Tilda’s was actually better. It was just because I hated that Tilda was copying Kyla.

“When she called me, begging for help, I brushed her off. When she was crying, scared out of her mind, I just walked away.

“I even accused her of causing that news incident, thinking she wanted to hurt Kyla and take her place. Deep down, I kept wishing Tilda would just vanish forever–or even die.”

Wade sucked in a shaky breath.

It was terrifying.

He just now realized his family was scary. And honestly, so was he.

Looking back, maybe he was the last person Tilda ever needed.

Maybe the one who should’ve disappeared wasn’t her–it was him.

Clive could hear the guilt dripping from Wade’s words. He patted Wade’s shoulder.

“It’s not too late to turn things around. Just start treating her well. No matter what’s happened, she’s still your family.

“If you truly regret it, I’m sure she’ll notice and be touched by how genuine you are.

Wade looked at Clive, uncertainty flashing in his eyes.

Could regret truly fix anything?

Wade was starting to realize how badly he and his family had messed up.

But then, he remembered that cold, sharp look Tilda had given him.

No matter what he did, he felt like nothing could undo the damage.

Some people were just made to stand in the spotlight.
