Among the top ten trending topics, half of them were about her.
A reporter uploaded the video of the interview online.
In the video, Harley was wearing all branded clothes, and the 10-carat diamond ring on her finger was exceptionally eye-catching.
In the business partner talk, the host invited her to explain the company philosophy. She fumbled helplessly for words and still couldn't even make any meaningful remarks.
One of the comments was, [I don't know about her educational background, but I don't think she's smart at all.]
I slowly returned home.
What I saw was my parents comforting Harley. Their eyes were red, their faces full of distress.
"You damn girl! How dare you come back!"
As soon as my dad saw me, he slammed the table heavily and scolded me sternly.
My mom didn't even look at me. She kept wiping Harley's tears with tissues and whispered, coaxing her, "Baby, stop crying. It breaks my heart to see you cry like this..."
I showed a mocking smile and asked, "What did I do?"
"You didn't go. Or how could Harley be scolded by others?"
People could be biased, but I didn't know why my parents could be this biased.
Because of Harley's tears, I was scolded without being given a chance to open my mouth.
I guessed they wanted different things from us.
They wanted me to shoulder the responsibility and do the grown-up things. And for Harley, they just wanted her to be happy.
I didn't bother to argue, so I ignored the warm scene of the family of three in front of me and went straight back to my room.
But in the next second, the door of the room was knocked.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Harley's swollen eyes.
She glared at me fiercely and said, "Tilda, you did it on purpose, didn't you? You want to embarrass me, don't you?"
"Harley, do you really think being a daughter of a rich family is that easy?"
My words stung Harley, and she said in exasperation, "You think I came back to take everything from you, so you want me to suffer. You want to ruin me!"
I crossed my arms and shrugged. "Think whatever you want."
She forgot who brought her back from the filthy, dangerous bar. She had her current life all because of me.
I never expected that my long-lost sister would be an ungrateful person.
"Tilda, just wait. I will prove to you that I'm better than you!"
Because of this, Harley took the initiative to tell our parents she wanted to study.
