My father explained anxiously. "Serena, having surgery now can ensure that you walk normally, otherwise you will be lame for life."
I slowly shook my head. I no longer cared.
He wanted to say something else, but Sebastian ran over with a cheerful face and said, "Dad, Caitlin is here."
Reynand could not hide his joy and said, "Serena, your classmates are here to see you. I'll push you over."
He did not even ask for my thoughts and pushed me out of the ward.
My heart was incredibly uncomfortable.
Caitlin Davis was the illegitimate daughter of Reynand and his lover.
He protected her very well over the years and I only discovered this secret after my mother passed away.
Caitlin always slanders me for bullying her at school, how could she possibly sincerely like me?
"Serena, are you okay? Our classmates are so worried about you, so they asked me to come and see you."
As soon as she entered the ward, she pretended to show concern for me.
I noticed that she came over with a bouquet of white chrysanthemums.
Chrysanthemums had always been a symbol of mourning for the dead.
Noticing my gaze, she quickly apologized. "Sorry, I came in a hurry and the flower shop only has chrysanthemums left. Don't mind it."
"By the way ... Mr. Davis, can I talk to Serena alone?"
She behaved well and had a harmless expression.
Reynand naturally would not refuse. "Of course, you should cheer her up."
As soon as they left the ward, Caitlin stopped pretending.
She looked at me up and down, with satisfaction in her eyes.
"Who would have thought that the once high and mighty Miss Davis would now become a worn-out shoe."
I glared at her coldly and blurted out. "No matter what, I'm still better than you, the shameless illegitimate daughter."
Caitlin was choked by my words, her eyes turned red. "So what if I'm an illegitimate daughter? The person my dad really loves is my mom!"
"No matter how much love you get, you and your mom have been gutter rats for more than twenty years."
Caitlin glared at me fiercely and after a few seconds, she sneered.
"Serena, you don't know yet, do you? It was your dad who hired those thugs to abuse you and it was your brother who posted those videos of you on the school forum."
"Besides, when you were tortured to the point of not being human and called your dad and brother for help, they were accompanying me to find the dog."
"Serena, in their eyes, you are not as good as my dog."
