The tension between Morgan and Casey was strong throughout the evening, but Taylor and Lily chose to ignore it
entirely, focusing instead on enjoying their dinner. The subtle exchanges and sharp glances between the couple
didn’t go unnoticed, but neither sibling made any comment. Instead, they kept the mood light, pretending
everything was perfectly normal.
Morgan, desperate to steer the conversation in a more neutral direction, brought up an upcoming business
project. However, both Taylor and Lily responded with little enthusiasm, their half-hearted answers doing nothing
to mask their disinterest. Frustrated, Morgan clenched his fists under the table, masking his annoyance with a
strained smile.
When the meal finally concluded, Lily rose gracefully and offered a bright smile. “This one’s on me,” she said,
heading to the counter to settle the bill. Once outside the restaurant, she stopped abruptly, turning to her
parents with an enigmatic expression.
*Father, Mother, | have a little surprise for you,” she announced, her tone laced with intrigue. Without waiting for
a response, she reached out and gently took their hands, leading them toward a nearby hotel.
Morgan frowned, suspicion flickering in his eyes. “What is this about, Lily?” he asked cautiously.
“Just trust me,” she replied with a mysterious smile. “You'll see soon enough.”
The couple exchanged puzzled glances but followed her nonetheless. Upon entering the hotel, the manager
greeted them warmly, acknowledging their status as owners of the establishment. Lily nodded politely. The
card?” she asked succinctly. The manager handed her the keycard without hesitation, bowing slightly as she
accepted it.
Lily led her family to the elevator, her demeanor calm but charged with a subtle energy. Beside her, Taylor
couldn't hide his excitement. The younger sibling, always entertained by , seemed to relish the
anticipation. He had missed her previous confrontations due to work and was eager to witness what promised to
be an eventful evening.
“Should | have brought popcorn?” he quipped under his breath, earning a glare from his mother.
“Lily, what exactly is this surprise? Is it in the room?” Casey asked, her curiosity tinged with nervousness.
“Yes, Mother,” Lily said simply, offering no further explanation. Her cryptic behavior only heightened the
tension.

door, Lily paused, turning back to her parents with a mischievous glint in her eyes. “It’s just through here,” she
said, swiping the keycard and pushing the door open.
Morgan and Casey hesitated for a moment before stepping inside. The room appeared ordinary at first glance,
with nothing out of the ordinary to suggest a “surprise.” They glanced at their daughter in confusion, but she
simply gestured for them to follow her further in.
They cto another door within the suite. Lily’s expression shifted, her earlier playfulness giving way to
something more serious. Morgan's unease deepened. A sense of foreboding settled over him as he watched her
reach for the handle.
“Lily, what is this about?” he demanded, his voice betraying his apprehension. But before he could say more, Lily
had already opened the door and stepped inside, leaving her parents no choice but to follow.
The air in the room felt charged thick with the weight of unsnaken revelations Morgan's instincts

screamed that something was terribly wrong, but it was too late to back out now. Whatever awaited them on the
other side of the door, he knew it was bound to shake the foundations of their carefully constructed lives.
With no alternative, the Miller Couple hesitantly followed Lily into the room. However, what greeted them left
them utterly speechless. Casey let out a horrified shriek, clutching her chest, while Morgan turned his head away
in disgust.
“What in
in the world is this nonsense, Lily?” Morgan shouted, his voice shaking with outrage.
Lily smirked, crossing her arms. “Welcto tonight's special presentation of ‘I would never betray you, dear
sister” and “There's nothing betweenand Rose A live performance, starring the two biggest liars |
know.”
The room's occupants froze. Ryan, who was caught in a compromising position, scrambled to pull on his clothes
while hastily passing Rose hers. The initial shock on his face quickly morphed into dread as he realized who had
just walked in.
Rose, on the other hand, looked mortified. The color drained from her face as her trembling hands clutched her
clothes. She hadn't even processed the gravity of being caught until Ryan shook her to reality. Her gaze darted
nervously between her parents and Lily, who stood with an expression of smug triumph.
Despite her fear, Rose couldn't hide the faint glimmer of defiance in her eyes. In her mind, this was a chance to
finally rid Ryan of Lily. But she wasn’t prepared for the full brunt of her father’s fury or the public humiliation.
Lily stepped forward with a mocking smile. “Well, hello, little sister. How's that charity event you were so excited
about? Or should | say, the ‘charity for making children’ event?” Her tone dripped with sarcasm.
Rose's face turned pale. “E-elder sister... It’s not what you think...” she stammered, attempting to put on an
innocent facade.
“Oh? Then what is it? A clueless ‘little sister’ sharing a bed with her elder sister's boyfriend?” Lily's tone
sharpened. “Or perhaps something more professional-like a woman selling herself to the highest bidder?”
“Lily, enough!” Casey shouted, stepping forward to defend Rose. “How dare you speak to your sister like this?
Watch your words!”
Lily turned to Casey, her expression cold. “Sister? Oh, that’s rich. Now she’s my ‘sister’ because | called her out?
Where was your outrage when your precious daughter betrayed me? Did you even stop to consider what | would
feel seeing my so-called sister in bed with my boyfriend?”
Casey faltered, unable to find an answer.
Lily shrugged and continued, “Of course, why would you? You've always played favorites. Loving one daughter
and ignoring the other-it’s your specialty.”
“That's not true!” Casey protested weakly. “I love you both equally-
Lily cut her off with a bitter laugh. “Is that so?” she asked, her gaze filled with disdain.
Before Casey could respond, Ryan stepped forward, his face filled with guilt. “Lily, I'm sorry! It was a mistake-just
a one-tmistake. Please forgive me...” His voice wavered as he desperately sought her
mercy.
But Lily's response cin the form of a sharp slap across his face.
