The Norris’.
It was somewhat awkward at the dining table. Serina was busy eating. First chicken, and then a steak. She quite enjoyed it.
Everyone was looking at her, but she did not seem to notice it. She kept doing her own things.
Yes. She chose to come back. She was the victim. Why should she be the one to leave? Why should she allow these people to feel at ease?
Serina’s grandfather Kamden and grandmother Miranda looked at each other. Then, Miranda shook her head while Kamden continued to eat.
There was only one chicken leg left on the plate. Miranda smiled at Clara and said, “Clara, you should have more since you’re pregnant. Here, let me take this chicken leg for you.”
Just as Miranda touched the chicken leg with her chopsticks, Serina stretched out her chopsticks and was about to pick up the chicken leg at the same time.
There was tension in the room.
Andrew Norris looked at Serina and said, “Serina, you’ve eaten quite a few chicken legs. Let Clara have this.”
“Why should I?” With a dull expression, Serina refused to move her chopsticks away from the chicken leg.
Kamden slammed the table and said, “Why should you? Think about it! Clara is your younger sister. It is your duty to take care of her! Besides, Clara is pregnant now. She is pregnant with your little nephew!”
Serina sneered. She put down her chopsticks and said, “Grandfather, don’t you think what you said ridiculous? Clara is pregnant with my little nephew? She is pregnant with my boyfriend’s baby! Is the baby really my nephew?”
After Serina said this, everyone present felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Why are you showing off? Clara got this baby through rape. I think you all know that.”
“Shut up!” This time, Andrew slammed the table. He said, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Serina turned her head to the side and said, “I think I’m right.”
“Serina!” Andrew glared at his daughter fiercely, “Bastard! Don’t think that I’ll forgive you just because you’re back. Where have you been these past few days?!”
Clara sat beside Andrew. She hurriedly pulled on Andrew’s sleeve and said, “Dad, don’t be angry. Serina has just returned. Can’t we have a good meal together?”
Then, Clara picked up the only chicken leg on the plate and put it in Serina’s bowl. She said, “Serina, you can have it. You must be starving these past few days.”
Miranda looked at Clara worriedly. She said, “My good girl. You are so kind!”
Clara immediately burst into a harmless smile. “Of course I am, Grandma. I’ve learnt it from you.”
Miranda smiled and said, “You always know how to cheer me up.”
Serina looked at Clara, with whose effort the entire family was happy. Right now, Serina really wanted to tear apart her hypocritical face!
“Serina! I don’t want to be too harsh on you, but as a sister, Clara is much better than you!” Kamden snorted at Serina.
“Grandpa, you are right. Clara is indeed much better than me at sleeping with men!” Serina fixed her burning gaze on Clara.
Clara immediately lowered her head, her eyes filled with shyness and sorrow.
Sammy frowned as well, “Serina, I’ve told you many times. It’s not Clara’s fault.”
“You bastard! I ignored what you said just now, but now you’re saying that Clara is good at sleeping with men! How can you say that to your sister?”
“My sister? My mother is not a prostitute!”
“Serina!” Miranda, Kamden, and Andrew shouted in unison.
Kamden pointed at Serina with his hand trembling, “Andrew, teach her a lesson now, or you are no longer my son!”
