18 Chapter 18: To spoil to kill

Selene's eyes turned red with her head down, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault.

Don't be angry, Jill."

Jermaine became even angrier and blamed Suzanne, "Why did you let Selene apologize without even asking? How can you be such a mother?"

Suzanne smiled softly, "It's right for a younger sister to give way to her older one. Besides, how could Jill do anything wrong?"

She came downstairs and looked at Juliana with a loving smile, "Jill, don't be afraid, mom will back you up and not let them bully you."

Juliana looked up at Suzanne, who wasn't particularly pretty but still charming.

Yet Suzanne was no match for Juliana's mother and didn't even have a third of her beauty.

But it was this woman who stole Jermaine from Juliana's mother and took her place in the family.

Suzanne was a bit freaked out when Juliana looked at her and turned her head to scold Selene: "Selene, why are you bullying Jill again? How many times have I told you to give in to her? Why don't you listen?"

Selene bowed her head and cried, "I give in. I'll give in to Jill. I don't want anything."

Jermaine saw her daughter crying, heartbroken. He got angrier and angrier: "Why should Selene give in to Juliana? Juliana must have bullied her again."

Jayden stood up, defending Selene, and said angrily, "Juliana told Selene not to get engaged to me and asked Selene to marry into the Leach family instead of her."

"Selene didn't agree and she made her kneel. She even kicked me down. She's trying to supplant Selene."

Selene cried as she shook her head: "It's not like that. It's not Jill's fault. I'm the one who's willing to give up Jayden to Jill and marry Benson Leach instead of her. Dad, don't blame Jill."

Jermaine only got furious when he heard these words, "How dare you ask Selene to marry Benson instead of you? You are asking her to die! Are you still a sister?"

As the words came out, Jermaine raised his hand to smack Juliana's face.

Juliana's face turned grim and she was about to fight back, when Suzanne, who was standing next to her, grabbed Jermaine's hand quickly, "Jermaine, talk nicely. I won't allow you to hit Jill."

Jermaine showed anger: "For so many years, Selene gave her room, her toys, and almost her boyfriend to Juliana. Now Juliana's asking Selene to die. Does she have a heart? Is she still acting like a sister?"

Suzanne tightened her grip on his hand to keep from hitting Juliana, "It's all right. We did wrong to Jill and I agree with Selene going to the Leach's."

She said heroically, "You can't watch Selene go to her death. I can't watch Jill go to her death either. They are both my daughters. If one has to be sacrificed, let it be Selene."

Hearing this, Juliana raised her eyes to look at Suzanne coldly and spoke in a cold voice: "My mother is already dead. Suzanne, you, a mistress, want to be my mother? Go and lie down in the cemetery first."

Juliana used to hate Suzanne too, but she was soon touched by her "goodness".

The reason was that Suzanne satisfied Juliana with everything.

When Juliana did not want to go to school, Suzanne asked for leave for her and took her to play.

When Juliana wanted something, Suzanne bought it for her.

Juliana didn't have to practice playing the piano or dancing. She was allowed to stay out of school, to fight and make trouble, and to keep toy boys...

All in all, Suzanne unconditionally supported Juliana in whatever she wanted to do and helped her out when things went wrong.

Such "goodness" was to ruin her by spoiling her!

Suzanne had turned Juliana into a loser yet Juliana was grateful to her!
