Lynne's POV:
"Dad!" Shirley clung to Rainer's arm as tears streamed down her face. "I don't wanna move to the servants' quarters. Say something, please!"
I couldn't help but roll my eyes and scoffed inwardly, 'Has she installed a water pump in her head or what?'
Before Rainer could utter a word, I grabbed his arm, cozied up to him, and then shot a look at Shirley. "Look, Rainer Taylor is my father, and I'm his real daughter. I don't know who you are, but back off from my dad from now on! I've been away from him for ten years. I just want to stay with him now."
Those words made me want to vomit. I had nothing but hatred toward my so-called father. But I had to play it like Shirley, butter him up with this fake affection.
Sure enough, Rainer looked at me with guilt flickering in his eye
