Chapter 470 - Aivy's Insecurity

"Ever since I found out that your father is my father, I never asked anything from him, from you or from your family. My mom never told your mom to get drunk, drive out in the middle of the night and die in an accident. I never called for your dad and asked him to save my mom and die with her. I never asked for them to die. Their accident happened because of their own volition."

"So, I wonder why do you have to blame it all on me, Aivy? I never stepped foot in your residence. I never went to you. I never appeared in your face, in fact, it was the other way around. It was not my fault that your father hooked up with my mother."

"My mom never knew that your father is already married. She never stepped out of Mt. Celandine, it was your father who came to her." Laurie was angry and teary-eyed when she said that. Her hand is still gripping Aivy's jaw that is probably marked with red now.

It is true that she and her mother didn't know that her father already has a family at Lotus City. She only finds out about it when her father and mother died in that landslide and Aivy appeared and started messing up with her life.

Since then, Aivy started threatening her to not reveal her identity to anyone. And not tell anyone that Aivy is her step-sister especially when Aivy started to become famous in the modeling industry.

Which, Laurie didn't actually mind at all. She had no plans on getting involved with Aivy so she remained quiet and never get into Aivy's way. She lived a peaceful life except for occasional appearances of Aivy on her doorstep just to say insulting words to her and to show her achievements and prove that she is superior to her.

Laurie was able to study, became a teacher in a university, find a man and get married then had daughters.

Aivy witnessed it all, which made her even more insecure with Laurie. Everything Aivy does, her career, her business, it is only to show Laurie that she is superior to her. That she is more favored than her.

But having a husband and kids of her own has become her biggest insecurity because it is something that she hasn't achieve until now.

Laurie loosened her grip and Aivy staggered backward. She glared at Laurie in anger.

"Stop it Aivy! You're grown up now. You're over fifty. Stop fighting over something that doesn't actually exist. If you cannot stomach the fact that you have a step-sister then pretend that I don't exist. I don't mind at all. It should be easy if you stop coming to me."

Aivy smirked, she dropped her head and mumbled. "It's easy for you to say because you are not in my position. You didn't lose a mother because she found out that her husband cheated on her. You didn't lose your father's attention and affection that was supposed to be mine only."

Then she raised her head with eyes that were now welling up in tears. "It was I who lost them. And I lost them because you started to exist."

"And now everything that I worked for was lost overnight. And again it was because of you!" Aivy said with trembling lips. Her fist is clenched on her side. She is filled with anger.

Laurie sighed in frustration. She has come to the realization that Aivy's obsession to blame all her misfortune to her cannot be helped.

"I know how rare and valuable those stones are, that is why some are willing to spend their millions on it. Why can't you just be fair Aivy?" But Laurie didn't give up.

Aivy laughed sarcastically. "Fair?" She took two steps to get closer to Laurie. "Nothing is fair in this world, dear sister. Life has been unfair to me. So, why should I be fair?" She said in a sarcastic tone.
