Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1755 My Own Sister (Part Two)

"Really? Am I really your sister?" She couldn't believe it as she saw it on paper. It took her everything

to pretend to be calm the past few days, but she was full of a weird mix of anxiety and excitement. If

she was his sister, then she had been treating the one who killed her mother as a parent for the past

twenty years. It broke her heart to realize that she had been living with her enemy for most of her life.

"Yes. Are you happy?" He was smiling at her, and at the fact that he could finally bring his mother

peace.

"Yes.

This means I'm not an orphan… I have a real family." She always wanted Rain to be her brother. She

would think about it often, knowing that it was undoubtedly a mere fantasy. It was still so unreal to think

that her wish came true that way.

"Silly girl, how could you be an orphan? You've always had us." He gently wiped her tears away. He

never thought such a day would come, and he was brimming with the same emotions, but was always

just much better at keeping them from surfacing.

"Yes, I have you, so I'm not an orphan," she repeated.

With a brother like him beside her, she felt like she could get through anything.

"We're officially family now. You can ask anything you want from me. You never need to hesitate or be

shy about anything ever again." The confirmation of their relationship did change his attitude towards

her a great deal.

After the reveal of Tiana's identity, pretty much everyone accepted it happily, even if they were

surprised at first. Their attitudes towards her also changed. After all, she was Rain's sister now.

Rain said he wanted his mother to meet Annie, so he took his family to the cemetery before the holiday.

Annie made sure to get all dressed up. Even like this, it was her first meeting with Rain's mother, and

she wanted to make a good impression.

"Mother, are you there? Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

This is your daughter-in-law. Your grandchildren are also here.

I'm sorry I didn't bring them to see you before today." He was doing well to make sure his voice didn't

crack, but he was getting quite emotional. It was the first time he was so happy in front of his mother.

"And this… is Tiana. Do you think she looks familiar?"

He reached out to pull her closer.

"Doesn't she? This is my sister, mom. Your own daughter. Over twenty years ago, she didn't pass

away, she was taken to the Ke family. I know it's almost unbelievable… but it's all true. That's why I

brought her here today. I want you to meet her."

Rain's heart was filled with warmth as he knew that if his mother were still alive, she would be jumping

for joy.

"Mother? I'm Tiana. I'm sorry that I didn't come to see you until today." She thought of her own mother

lying in the grave, and Tiana couldn't help but shed some tears.

Huey was rather mature for his age, and he understood that it was his father's mother lying there, and

that was why they were so upset.

Joyce, on the other hand, was a little bit more naive. She ran around the graveyard, running in zigzags

as a little girl should.

Annie stayed quiet, knowing that it was a big moment for the newfound siblings. 'Don't worry, mother. I

will take good care of Rain. No matter how many difficulties I will face in the future, I will always be by

his side, ' she thought silently instead.

To be in the company of loved ones was a kind of medicine.

Relationships need to be sustained by companionship, or they could crumble, no matter how strong the

love for each other.

After the visit, Tiana slid into the family like a perfect fit, so when she met Sheena again, she saw her in

a whole new light.

"Mom," she called. Although Tiana didn't want to talk to her, she didn't have the courage to break off

ties completely with the woman who had taken care of her for over twenty years.

"Where's my money, huh? Now that you live in that little bastard's house, he must've given you tons of

money, right?"

Sheena reached her hand out expectantly.

Tiana just looked at it blankly. "I'm sorry. I have no money." She rejected her outright. Although she took

care of her for so long, the money she spent on her was all Sanford's. Tiana knew she didn't owe her in

such a way, because if she wasn't getting anything out of it, she certainly wouldn't have been kind to

Tiana. The recent events showed just that.

"You don't have money?" she sneered. "Do you think I'm stupid?

Don't forget who you are. You're my daughter. You can't refuse me." The words that should've been

affectionate sounded cold and demanding in her tone. She had yet to find out that Tiana knew the truth.

Tiana's jaw clenched. "Oh really?

I'm your daughter? You sure about that?" She didn't think Sheena was such an awful person before,

but after learning about all she did to her mother, she couldn't help but feel sick when she saw her.

Sheena paused for a moment. "What are you talking about?" Nervousness struck. She ddin't care if

Tiana knew the truth, but she was terrified of Sanford finding out. She couldn't live without him.

"What am I talking about?

Don't play pretend.

I'm not your daughter." She didn't hesitate to expose the truth. Although Rain told her to avoid talking to

the Ke family members from then on, she couldn't let Sheena's insults go too easily.

The best way to cut off ties with Sheena was to tell her the truth, so she did.

"How... how did you find out?"

For over two decades, she treated Tiana as her own, doing all she could to keep the secret from

Sanford. She didn't expect her efforts to have been wasted in a day.

"If you don't want anyone to know about your dirty deeds, you'd better not do them in the first place."

She smiled coldly. She had learned much about her real mother in the past few days, and even from

that she could tell that she was superior to Sheena in possibly every way.

"Who told you?"

Sheena asked viciously, with anger brimming in her eyes.

"Rain, who else? He had people investigate. Do you think there's a secret in this world you can keep

from him?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up, ready to leave and turn away from the woman forever.

"Then why did he still let you stay at his house?" Sheena didn't find it believable for Rain to have left a

person who had nothing to do with him in his home.

"Because she's my sister!

Do you understand now? The baby girl you brought back from the hospital is my mother's child.

Shouldn't you at least act a little surprised? Do you really have no ounce of decency?" He appeared

almost out of nowhere. As soon as he heard from the guard that Tiana had gone to meet Sheena at a

nearby café, he rushed over, worried that Sheena would harm his sister.

"That's impossible! I didn't help that woman raise her baby! No…no, no! You're lying!"

She started shaking her head, almost hysterically. The words were all arrows to her heart.

"I'm not lying. We've done the DNA testing. It's official." Rain found himself particularly pleased to see

Sheena out of control. Before, he said that he would act as if nothing had happened, so long as they

didn't do anything stupid to provoke him. Sheena, however, repeatedly walked the dangerous line of

challenging him.

"Don't lie to me, asshole! You're lying! I won't believe you. Tiana was an unwanted baby girl! She's not

your mother's bastard!" She felt sick at the thought. So she had been taking care of her rival's child all

that time? "Oh my god! You can't do this to me," she muttered into the empty air.

"Bastard? Look at your sons. They're the bastards here! They'll kick you straight out when you have no

more use for them." He smiled a dangerously cold smile. He received word that her two sons were

looking for someone to value their house, meaning they were going to sell it without any concern for

their mother.
