Chapter 1121 “Alright, you may go." Sampson's expression remained nonchalant, but Serena was seething with jealousy.
She would never forget the day Arabella first returned to the family, how her parents showered her with pocket money and all those beautiful clothes, shoes, handbags.

Serena, spoiled by her parents for eighteen years, had never received such treatment! Now, her uncle was lavishing Arabella with expensive gifts.
“Let us have a minute." Sampson leaned back, his aura still overpowering, “I'll dinner with Serena." David wanted to say something, but under his uncle's gaze, he decided to leave first.
Seeing everyone leave, Serena gave a bitter smile, stirring her soup with a spoon, "Uncle Sampson, you want to criticizetoo, right?" “Why would | criticize you?" Serena's eyes widened slightly. Was someone finally different from others? “You were pampered for eighteen years. Then one day, a girl comes along, and she is the real heiress of this family. You're told you have no blood ties to this family, and you're someone else's child. Everyone tries to make up for her, treating her well with more affection they once had for you. You can't say that doesn't hurt." It seemed like Sampson could read her mind, causing Serena's eyes to well up with tears.
"But think about it from her perspective, because of a mistake, she suffered at the Murphy family for eighteen years. Now that she's returned to her biological family, isn't it normal for everyone to treat her well and make it up to her?" Serena looked up. It did make sense, but it hurt so much. She felt so much jealousy and sadness.
“Who poses the biggest threat to her position when she returned? Isn't it you, who was doted upon by the family for eighteen years?" Sampson hit the nail on the head, “But she didn't kick you out immediately, instead, she allowed you to continue enjoying the luxury that was originally hers." Serena was taken aback, suddenly understanding the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"She didn't resent, get angry or jealous that you stole her family and enjoyed the life that she should have had for the past eighteen years. She didn't hold these against you. Doesn't it show that she's willing to accept you?" Serena's tears welled up in her eyes, a bit stunned.
“From your conversation just now, it's obvious that there are ssmall frictions between you two. Like just now, even though you were a bit too assertive, she didn't threaten to kick you out of the house, but calmly explained to you not to overthink. In my understanding of her, she's already making the biggest compromise.
Where's yours? | didn't see it: Serena didn't say anything, her tears streaming down her face.
"You need to understand that she was the one who was wrongly adopted. The family feels guilty towards her.
She could easily use this guilt to kick you out of the house. If she were to say something, how likely do you think it would be for you to stay in this house?" She had been warned about this before.
She knew her chances were slim, almost nonexistent.
"Serena, you've been in the center of the family for too long. You've forgotten that this position was originally hers." Sampson said in a meaningful tone, "While she was suffering at the Murphy family, being treated terribly by her adoptive parents because they took her as a curse, you were enjoying the affection given by her parents, her brothers, her family. If you were in her shoes, could you be as generous as her, allowing her to stay in the family and continue to share your family and wealth?" Serena bit her lip. She knew she couldn't.
