Chapter 2128: Chapter 2122 - Why are you still playing innocent now?

"I was wrong. I thought that even without a blood tie, we’ve lived together for so many years that it’s stronger than a family with blood ties. I’ve realized now, outsiders will remain outsiders and they can never truly become part of our family."

"Do you see the children you have raised with such hard work? This is how they treat your biological daughter. You’ve raised a thankless child."

Rose Liall realized that using Benjamin to plead for Annie was futile.

She was so enthusiastic at first, being nice at every turn, all because she was seeking a favour.

She was hoping to reap some benefits from Joanna.

But now, she knows all these are unrealistic.

She no longer made an effort to please, and began to cry out with feigned grievances.

Benjamin was in a good mood initially.

But now it’s in a mess, where can he find the mood? Hearing Rose and Annie’s cries, he slapped his hand on the table, his face turning pale, "Enough, stop it."

But Rose and Annie cried louder.

"Sir Darren, are you going to just watch as someone bullies your daughter?" Rose was filled with snorts and tears, "You have heard everything they said earlier. If they respect you at all, could they say such things?"

"They have openly bullied Annie in front of you, aren’t you going to step in?"

"I said enough, stop crying." What was supposed to be a good birthday was ruined, Benjamin was so angry that his chest heaved, "You all said you wanted to make my birthday a good one, is this how you do it? I see you all want to make me die from anger."

"Dad." Joanna, noticing Benjamin’s face turning green with anger and worried about his health, walked up to support him.

"Dad, I’m sorry." Joanna never thought it would turn out this way, it was not her intention, "We messed up your birthday."

"Joanna, stop pretending to be the good person." Annie’s eyes were red, full of hatred, "Who are you fooling, you are now the daughter of the White’s! Do you still care about us, the Lawrence family?"

"If it weren’t for the fear of people saying you’re ungrateful, you probably couldn’t wait to sever ties with the Lawrence family."

"Ask yourself, do you still consider the Lawrence’s as your family?"

"You ruined dad’s birthday today, wasn’t it intentional? Now, what are you pretending to be innocent about."

Joanna slowly lifted her head.

She looked at Annie without any expression.

Annie met her gaze, inexplicably felt a bit guilty.

But she raised her head defiantly, "Is what I said wrong? You’re not really our family. I used to think at least we had the same father, at least we had a blood tie, but now, you have no relation to the Lawrence family."

"Go back and continue being your well-bred lady. Don’t pretend to care about the past here."

"Annie, shut your mouth." Benjamin’s chest heaved, "I know what kind of person Joanna is. No more nonsense."

"Dad, am I wrong? She’s the White’s daughter, not Lawrence’s. She is the White’s daughter now, she’s loved by her biological parents. What do you, her so-called foster father, count as?"

"Does she even care about your words now?"
