“Yulissa, what else can you do besides sowing discord? I’ve made it clear that it’s Cassandra’s decision on how to handle the gift | gave her! Whether she chooses to keep it, discard it, or give it away is none of my concern. What are you trying to achieve by bringing it up?”
Before Cassandra could speak, Raymond retorted directly to Yulissa!
Yulissa was not very adept at choosing her words.
It was too obvious that she wanted to cause conflict!
Raymond couldn't comprehend why he hadn’t noticed it carlier.
Yulissa’s face turned pale upon hearing her brother’s words, and the bouquet in her hand almost fell to the ground!
“What's going on? How could Ray say such a thing? He has gone too far!” she thought.
Tears started to well in Yulissa’s eyes, making her look pathetic at that moment.
“Raymond, you've gone too far. Why are you criticizing Lisa? Cassandra’s actions are equivalent to humiliating her!” Jasper then turned to Cassandra and scolded, “And you. You can’t throw it away if you don’t want it. You know Lisa likes it! Do you hate Lisa so much? You are ill-mannered. | don’t even know how you were raised.”
“Jace, you are the one who has gone overboard! Regardless of anything, Cassic is our biological sister. Don’t you think your words are hurtful?” Yohannes was displeased with Jasper’s words.
‘How could he say Cassie hates Yulissa, and Cassie is ill-mannered? All this time, it is Yulissa who hates Cassie! If | don’t see through her, | will still be used as a cat’s na Yulissa! Yohannes thought.

“l only have one sister, Lisa. Since you like Cassandra so much and want her to be sister, Lisa will only be our sister from now on. She has nothing to do with the two of you. Don’t regret it in the future!” Jasper believed that by stating Yulissa would no longer be their sister, Yohannes and Raymond would become uneasy.
However, he was wrong!
Instead, Yohannes refuted disdainfully, “It's up to you. Just don’t regret it when the time
comes!”

you.
Rather than getting involved in the boys’ argument, Leonardo approached Cassandra and said, “Happy graduation. You’ve been upset with us for so long. It’s time to go home. I’ve talked to Father, and we've decided to throw a formal welcome party for From now on, you are the eldest daughter of the Yates family, and Lisa is the second. daughter. We will treat both of you equally. You will also have what Lisa has.”
Leonardo believed that Cassandra should be pleased that they were willing to acknowledge her identity in that manner.
After all, he was aware that she had always desired their recognition.
Now that they had acknowledged her identity, he assumed that she wouldn’t cause trouble again in the future.
Unfortunately, Cassandra merely snorted upon hearing that and said, “Mr. Yates, do you think the status of being the eldest daughter of the Yates family is very honorable? Do you think | would care about it?”
Leonardo didn’t know how to respond to that. “You...”
‘She’s right. Cassandra disdains the status as a member of the Yates family now!’ he recalled.
She was the world-famous Elaine and the child of Lucas. It was no exaggeration to say that she was the daughter of the Hathaway family!
Hence, she would not consider being part of the Yates family as worthy of her.
‘However, the Yates family is her real family. Doesn’t she hope to return to her home?” he wondered.
“Cassandra, don’t say things you'll regret out of anger. We all know what you truly want in your heart, so it’s time to come home now that SAT is over. We refrained from bothering you during the entrance examination because we worried we might affect your performance!”
“Are you afraid of affecting my performance or hurting Yulissa’s feelings? Please turn around and have a good look at your dear sister, Mr. Yates. If one’s gaze could kill, | might have died a thousand times under Yulissa’s eyes. By the way, Mr. Yates, you’d better pray
that my car accident yesterday has nothing to do with the Yates family. Otherwise, | will fight to the last breath with your family!” Cassandra’s words made Leonardo very uncomfortable.
‘Why is she so ungrateful?’ he complained silently.

He had already decided to make amends with Cassandra, but she was acting like at hedgehog, pri cking anyone who came near her.
‘She's so...
“Do you even know what you’re saying? Why do you have to slander your family at every opportunity? Who among us would harm you? Haven't you found the person who hurt you? I’m willing to help you vent your anger, okay?”
“She merely wants the support of the family, right? As long as she returns to the Yates residence, she can have it. Besides, anything that Lisa has, she will have too. Why does she have to say all those things? Leonardo complained in his heart.
“No, don’t put yourself in a tight spot. But you can rest assured that the perpetrator has confessed and told the police who the mastermind is. | believe the police officers will bring justice to me!”
When Cassandra said that, she even glanced at Yulissa!
Yulissa. however, dodged Cassandra’s gaze and appeared a little flustered. A sense of fear had turned her face pale as well. At that point, Cassandra could tell that the accident was somehow linked to Yulissa.
As a matter of fact, the perpetrator hadn’t confessed yet. The secret was being kept tightly under wraps. It seemed that Yulissa had given him a substantial amount of
money.
However, with this breakthrough, obtaining a confession would now be much more feasible.
“Don't worry. As long as the police find out who the mastermind is, | will not let that person get away easily!” Leonardo said.
“| hope you can remember what you have just said, Mr. Yates!”
Unable to tolerate it any longer, Jasper refuted harshly, “Cassandra, what are you implying? Do you think the Yates family is plotting against you? You're taking yourself too seriously. Leo has already promised not to let the mastermind off easily. What’s the use of saying such things? Pack your things quickly and come home with us!”
“What a shameless brat! She practically invites others to look down on her. | don’t understand why Dad insists on bringing her home. What’s the point of doing that? I’m irritated every time | see her!’ Jasper thought.

Swoosh!
Suddenly, Jasper felt a sharp sting on his body, as if he had been pri cked by a needle.
“What was that?’ he wondered.
“Mr. Jasper Yates, I've presented you with a substantial gift. | hope you like it!”
Then, Cassandra turned to Leonardo and suggested, “Mr. Leonardo Yates, perhaps you should change the welcome party you mentioned to Yulissa’s graduation party. | believe your baby sister will be happier with such an arrangement!”
After saying that, she left!
At that point, Leonardo and Jasper could only return home with Yulissa empty- handedly.
After watching Cassandra leave, Yohannes and Raymond also went back to their residence.
As soon as Leonardo and the others arrived home, Yulissa, with an aggrieved expression, asked, “Leo, when Cassandra returns home, are you going to abandon me? I’ve been just an adopted daughter, having you all to myself for so long. Will you still be kind to me when Cassandra comes back?”
In Jasper’s opinion, his sister was in shock.
She felt scared and couldn’t help but feel a sense of sadness whenever she thought that everyone might not love her in the future.

“Lisa, don’t worry. You will always be baby sister and only sister. Dad asked Cassandra to come back for...”
“Shut up, Jace!”
Observing Yulissa’s state, Leonardo felt a little annoyed. He couldn’t understand why she would constantly cry. “Lisa, don’t worry. Mom, Dad, and all of us will treat both of you without any exception. Even though you're not our biological sister, you're still our sister!”
Finally, they succeeded in calming Yulissa down. As they took their seats in the living room, four men in police uniforms entered the house and approached them, displaying their identity tags.
“May | know if Ms. Yulissa Yates stays here?”

Yulissa’s heart sank when she heard that
What does he mean by that? Why are the police here?’ she wondered.
“Yulissa is my sister. How can | help you, officer? Leonardo asked as he stood up and gestured toward Yulissa, who was beside him.
“The police have obtained evidence that Ms. Yulissa Yates was involved in a school car accident yesterday, and now we need to bring her in for investigation,” the officer stated.
