Make sure to put on your thick coat before stepping out of the car, okay? she said gently.
Meanwhile, Etta received only a brief glance from Skyla, who offhandedly remarked, Oh, Etta, youre here as well. Etta bit her lip, struggling to contain her rising emotions.
Harlee, spotting Ettas discomfort, burst out laughing and sneered, Look! Its not justwhos tired of your little games.
Color drained from Ettas face, her eyes brimming with unshed tears.
She turned to Skyla, her voice shaking.
Mrs.
Sanderson... It wasnt my intention... Skylas expression hardened, a mix of annoyance and sorrow crossing her features.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHaving known Etta since childhood and once holding her dear, she now found her feelings complicated by disappointment.
Etta, Ive had enough of this nonsense! Why must you always see Harlee as your rival? Harlee is the daughter of the Sanderson family, our pride and joy.
If you cant accept that, then pack your things and leave our house! Skyla declared with a resolve that was uncharacteristic but necessary.
Skyla had grown increasingly perceptive of the schemes employed by those in their elite circles, and sadly, Ettas attempts were quite transparent and fledgling in their execution.
As soon as Etta uttered a word, Skyla instantly recognized the pretense in her voice.
Skyla had intended to offer Etta a final opportunity for redemption, yet her actions had only deteriorated further. Disappointment weighed heavily on Skyla.
The color drained from Ettas face.

Sanderson, do you truly think Im attempting to rival Harlee? Is that honestly what you think? Skyla paused, her determination faltering as she caught sight of Ettas wounded look.
Was she being overly critical? Etta grasped the opportunity, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears as she turned away, her posture radiating defiance.
If thats your view of me, Mrs.
Sanderson, then you wont seeat the Sanderson house again.
Caught off guard, Skyla hastily said, Etta, wait, I didnt mean... At that moment, Harlee smoothly changed gears, shut down the cars engine, and swung open the door.
With a knowing smile, she remarked, Mom, this is what I call mid-level strategy, retreat to advance.' Skyla hesitated, watching Ettas retreating figure.
Are you certain? I feel I might have really hurt her this time.
Harlee, could I have misjudged her? Harlee smiled at Skyla. Dont worry, Mom.

Once she had soothed her mothers anxieties, Harlee slipped into her sleek sports car and pulled away.
As Harlees car glided past Etta, who was just stepping out of the upscale villa community, Harlee caught a glimpse in the rearview mirror of Etta clenching her purse with a tight grip.
Instead of causing a scene, Etta retained her sorrowful guise, her eyes filling with unshed tears.
Harlee gave a disinterested look through the rearview mirror as she observed Etta, with her woeful expression, attempting to catch a ride with a neighbor.
Harlee had sincerely intended to offer Etta an opportunity today, bufold patterns were tough to break. Since Etta didnt cherish this chance, her impending severity was reasonable.
Etta seethed silently as she watched Harlees car disappear into the distance without pausing.
She composed herself, masking any sign of bitterness.
Determined to reveal the Sanderson familys mistreatment toward her, Etta walked through the villa district with purpose. Just then, a polished black luxury car eased to a stop ahead of her.
