Oscar was dead drunk. Owen and Elsie brought him home.
Lily came out to meet them and exchanged a look with the two.
Upstairs, Elsie’s room had already been restored to look like Yunice’s. As long as they didn’t say anything, no one would know Yunice had once lived in the maid’s quarters.
Yunice was already gone. They hoped her affairs wouldn’t continue to stir up trouble in the family.
As for Oscar… they’d just keep it from him. As for the mess Yunice made when she was still alive, no one would ever bring it up again.
Oscar slept until the sun was high in the sky before waking up, his head pounding from the hangover.
When he opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling, he realized this was the home he hadn’t seen in years.
The smell of herbal tea reached his nose, Oscar sat up and looked at the bowl of tea by the bed. When he touched it-
It was still warm.
“Yunice?” Only Yunice would make tea for the family.
The door opened, and Elsie walked in. “Oscar?”
Oscar frowned. He had always struggled to hide his dislike for this “sister” who had been brought in from the outside. After all, her blood was filthy.
If it weren’t for their mother threatening death, he would never have allowed this girl to enter the family.
He always treated her with an attitude of cold indifference.
Elsie flinched slightly, but she spoke with a mix of fear and determination, “Oscar, Owen’s gone
to the hospital. Mom went to see Mr. Carl to arrange the funeral for Sis. I’m the only one at home right now…”
As she spoke, she came over and picked up the bowl. “The tea’s gotten cold. I’ll warm it up again … ”
“You made this rea?” Oscar asked.

Oscar continued, “You say you’re allergic to pollen, so you had every rose tree in the garden cut down. Not a single flower left in the house. And now you’re claiming you were sick and had to recover in Yunice’s room?”
Every word from Oscar hit like a blade. Elsie had no argument left.
Oscar pointed downstairs. “Go kneel by the front door. When Owen gets home, we’ll talk this through together.”
“You thought you could fool me with Yunice’s name? Looks like I’ve been away too long–you’ve jall forgotten who your brother is!”
Smack! He slammed his hand on the banister with a loud crack.
