It was anticipated, yet unexpected individuals they were.
The only people who would barge into the room like that were the parents, and they were not the type to come looking for me for just anything.
Unconsciously, I embraced Shasha.
“Sister… hugged me.”
At first, Shasha, who used to be terribly afraid of people, was fearful. Though not abused, the child was afraid of everything. She was especially more afraid of her parents.
At first, I wondered why she would be so scared, but the cruel words that the Earl couple spat out without hesitation at Shasha seemed like they could be a great fear for a child.
My arms and hands became very tense.
I didn’t know exactly what Shasha had been through with her parents, so I held the child tighter.
I’m not sure if that was good, but Shasha squirmed.
Of course, every time her parents raised their voices, her body would flinch.
“Why are you chirping so uncouthly?”
“Is she really crazy? To chirp at her parents!”
“Is it the first or second time I’m doing this? You used to like me when I did this, didn’t you?”
“That’s…!”
I chuckled. The Earl’s eldest daughter. Isabella.
Honestly, when looking in the mirror, her face belonged to the pretty side. Even her voice was only affectionate. But her attitude towards others was not so at all.
Because she was the eldest daughter, her parents raised Isabella freely.
Back then, there was no Shasha, so the family was only poor, and all they could do was let her grow up as she pleased. The Earl couple had no interest in their child and were preoccupied with themselves.
People who should not have had children. Those people were the Velochi Earl couple. They must be sent to Teacher Geumjok right away.
It’s not necessary to sacrifice everything just because they are parents. I think so too. But the Velochi Earl couple forced their children to sacrifice.
If there’s nothing to eat, they don’t share it, but were busy eating outside among themselves. People who didn’t have money to buy children’s clothes but had money to adorn themselves.
‘Isabella, who grew up beside such a couple, became full of selfishness. She couldn’t have survived otherwise.’
Like the saying that a child is a mirror of their parents, Isabella became more greedy than anyone else as she aged. If she suffered even a little, she hated it terribly.
“You look just like us, don’t you?”
Therefore, the Earl couple liked Isabella very much. They said she was just like them, that people have to live selfishly.
The one who used Shasha more than anyone else after the youngest Shanencia was born was Isabella. The one who found a way to make money using the child was also Isabella. How pretty she must have been.
A person who uses even unrelated bloodlines for her own gain without any care. Isabella, who had no blood or tears. At least she had a bit of affection for her own parents and didn’t go against them too much.
Until now.
“That’s right. You do look alike.”
“Yes. So stop being fickle. The more you do that, the more Shanencia will change for the worse.”
“Change?”
“Yes. Right now, isn’t it very strange?”
I glanced at Shanencia. As she heard her parents’ words and saw me looking at her, Shanencia swallowed her saliva. Her expression was full of worry, whether I would hate her or if I would not love her again.
Shasha’s eyes, which were drooping like a puppy’s, looked even more drooped today.
“It is strange.”
“That’s right. You wanted to use that child, so you should know. Even if you treat her well…”
“She’s too adorable.”
“What?”
The Earl couple shouted in unison. It was loud enough to hurt the ears.
“It’s true that I used Shasha in the past. So I feel sorry.”
Of course, if Isabella hadn’t done that, she would have been treated like a monster and grown up. It wouldn’t have been much different from now. At least, Isabella took the child to the market and the temple, where she was treated as pretty, and received extravagant treatments.
Though she was not loved by her family, at least she received a semblance of affection from others.
Being treated like a monster and hated would have been a bit worse. But that did not mean Isabella’s actions were forgivable.
“So that’s why you’ve come to your senses. From now on, I will love Shasha. I will give her the love I couldn’t give before, and if she doesn’t want to, I won’t make her go to the temple and the tower.”
“No, you’ve really lost your mind. If you don’t send Shanencia to the temple and the tower! Then! How are we going to make a living! You’re not serious? You’re not saying that, are you?”
“Smart Isabella wouldn’t do that. So there must be another meaning, right? Something more stable to bring in money…? Oh, yes!”
The Count and Countess, who had been vehemently denying, clapped their hands as if something had dawned on them.
“You just want to keep her at home. If you do that, the impatient temples and towers will provide more support. That’s it!”
“No?”
“What…?”

really disliked him
