Scott shot a quick look at Elysia but chose to remain silent. Emmaâs heart filled with jealousy. âHow could Scott be so indifferent?
Did he no longer see me as his daughter?â
âWhat did you mean when you accused Emma of lying?â Scott asked.
Elysia then explained the earlier events in the living room, adding, âI might not know why Emma wants this chance, but isnât being true to ourselves what matters most?
âBut Mom insists I learn to be dishonest. Dad, have I made a mistake? Should I just listen to Mom and let Emma have this opportunity?â
Scottâs face darkened as he glared at Bella. âIs this really how you choose to be a mother?â
Bella tensed up, her irritation with Elysia growing. Not only did Elysia refuse her request, but she also had to air everything out.
Bella felt she was unlikeable.
After scolding Bella, Scott turned back to Elysia. âYouâve become Vincentâs student?â He struggled to believe that Elysia, who had spent eighteen years in the village, could be so talented.
âYes,â Elysia replied confidently.
As she nodded, Scottâs skepticism was evident as he continued to narrow his eyes at her. âWas this really achieved on your own?â
âDad, do you not believe in me?â Elysia asked.
Scott felt a sting of embarrassment at her question and quickly clarified, âItâs not that I doubt you, but you have been living in the village, after all.â
Elysia understood what he meantâhe thought that being from the village meant she couldnât have any real skills. Although painting wasnât her strong suitâit was just a hobbyâshe had loved it since she was seven.
âI learned from an old painter in the village,â she replied casually, avoiding the whole truth. Jack had hired someone to teach her because of her interest.
In her free time, she liked to paint a few pieces. The reason she didnât tell Scott the whole truth was because explaining it would be too troublesome. If she had to explain, it would probably lead to a whole bunch of things.
At this point, Scott didnât care whether what Elysia said was true or not as long as the fact that Elysia was Vincentâs student remained true. This was a point of pride for the Rosewood family.
His heart filled with pride as he looked at Elysia. âWonderful. Elysia, you are truly amazing. No one can question that you are a true daughter of the Rosewood family.â Scottâs eyes sparkled with admiration for her.
Emma watched, consumed by jealousy that felt like it would tear her apart. If it werenât for Elysia, all of todayâs attention would have been on her. âWhy did Elysia have to show up?â
Scott then noticed Emma standing next to him, and his brows furrowed again. âWhat are you still doing here?â
âDad, I-â
Scott raised his hand, cutting her off. âI already said all I needed to say; you know what you have to do.â

Chapter 195 At his words, tears filled Emmaâs eyes, Scott had said that if she kepe being a pain, he would come their bond the woghout t her dad really looked down on her that much.
They had spent so many years together as dad and daughter, he couldnât expect her to jus leave the family.
Seeing her still standing there, Scottâs impatience grew. âDid you not hear what 1 wide Emma hesitated before finally moving her feet. âDad, Iâll go nowâ As the spoke, her tears spilled over. Soon stayed stere while Bellaâs heart ached for her daughter.
Watching Emma with tears in her eyes, Bella desperately wanted to stop Kmma from leaving, but keeping her there would only make Scott angrier. Feeling helpless, she could only watch as Emma dragged herself toward the exit.
When Emma reached the door, she saw that Scott showed no signs of changing his mind, leaving her heartbroken Wiping her tears, she hurried out of the villa, fully aware that they were in a private estate with no taxis around, Emma ran, unsure of how far she had gone when she finally managed to hail a taxi. After telling the driver her destination, she broke down, crying uncontrollably. The driver, glancing at her through the rearview mirror, chose to stay quiet.
As her sobs gradually quieted down, she stared blankly out the window. The driver finally spoke, âYoung lady, have you run into some trouble?â
Emma didnât respond, making the driver sigh. âLife isnât always easy. Youâre still young, there are many paths ahead.â Emma kept staring outside, her expression blank. Seeing her sadness, the driver fell silent, and the taxiâs interior grew quiet About twenty minutes later, the taxi came to a stop outside a villa in the suburbs. Tossing the money to the driver, she stepped out, dragging her tired body inside. As she opened the door, she collapsed onto the floor, feeling completely drained.
She promised herself, she would reclaim everything she had lost to the Rosewood family because of Elysia.
Scott could hardly hide his thrilling, excitement; Elysia had truly made a name for herself; his judgment had been spot on.
Vincent, a wellâknown figure in Jorlandia and across Clusia, was someone to be respected. With Elysia as his student, the Rosewood family was bound to shine in his light.
The connection between Elysia and Vincent could only bring good things to the familyâs future. Overwhelmed with happiness, Scott looked at his daughter with joy. âElysia, what reward would you like? Donât hesitate to say.â
Bella stood nearby, her face expressionless; this should have been Emmaâs moment. But since Elysia had snatched it away, she could not find any joy in this.
Elysia noticed Bellaâs mood but paid it no mind; Bellaâs mood was the last thing on her mind. She smiled at Scott and said, âI plan to visit Shecrity to see Logan in a couple of days; I just need your approval.â
âThatâs no big deal; you can decide for yourself, but donât think of it as a reward,â Scott replied, pulling a card from his bag and handing it to Elysia. âTake this card.â
Elysia took the card, a smile spreading across her face. âThank you, Dad.â
Once back in her room, she carefully folded the purple dress and placed it in the gift box. She then took out her phone and sent Zane a message: [âThe dress is ready for delivery.]
