Chapter 141

• Since Carlos had already decided that it was Isabella’s fault, if Regina spoke up for Isabella, it would only add fuel to the fire, making him even angrier with his biological daughter.
• “Mom is right. Maybe it’s just that my sister doesn’t understand the seriousness of the situation. Dad, you should clearly explain to her the urgency of the matter and make her pull herself together. She shouldn’t always be hanging around with that good-for-nothing boy who depends on her for a living. A daughter of the Rivera family is too precious to be associating with someone like that,” Cynthia said, cleverly fanning the flames and deepening the rift between father and daughter.
