NovelBookChapter 2890 Rita took a deep breath. It seemed that Karen had cprepared, and Rita wondered what surprises Sadie had in store for her upstairs. Nevertheless, since she was there, she had to make the best of it. At least that was what she told herself.
Knock, knock, knock! "Sadie, Dad wants you to cdownstairs for lunch. Your mother is hungry," Rita called out.
Sadie becvisibly irritated upon hearing Rita's voice. "Alright, got it. You can go downstairs now." Rita did not care whether Sadie actually cdown. After receiving a response, she immediately headed downstairs.

"I did call her, and she askedto cdown first, so I did." "Oh... Is that so?" Karen continued to glance upstairs, but there was no sign of movement. Even Rita took a quick look.
"Are you sure you called Sadie? Why isn't she coming down yet?" asked Vince.
Rita was speechless. "Dad, what are you talking about? If I were lazy, I wouldn't have climbed up these stairs in the first place. I did call her, and if she hasn't cdown, that's her problem. Why are you blaming me?" Vince slammed down his bowl onto the table. "Your temper is getting worse. Do you think you're someone special just because you married into the Parr family? I was just asking you a question, yet you retortedwith three. Is this the attitude you should have toward your elders?" Rita gripped the bowl tightly but remained silent.
"Why aren't you going up to call her again?" Vince demanded.
Rita clenched her jaw and eventually went to call Sadie again.
As she headed upstairs, she faintly heard Karen trying to reason with her father in a disapproving tone. "You shouldn't have spoken to Rita like that. Always scolding her will push her away, and then you'll regret it," Karen said.
"I'm not scolding her. I'm just teaching her not to lie. Even at home, one should be honest, let alone in society. She's only doing well because she has our support. Let's see how she fares in the future without us! Rita smirked sarcastically. Since Karen becpregnant, Vince would give in to her unconditionally, no matter how unreasonable she might sound. Not to mention the way she was pretending to be so understanding at that moment.

Rita and Karen had quarreled numerous times, yet Karen never failed to act innocently. At times, Rita could not help but be impressed by Karen's and Sadie's ability to act so nonchalantly, even when they were clearly at odds. It was something Rita could never learn to do.
However, this time, Rita did not hold back. She pounded on Sadie's m edroom door in the hopes that her commotion would be heard downstairs. "What are you doing? Didn't I say I heard you?" Sadie's voice cfrom inside the room, sounding extremely annoyed.
Rita replied impatiently, "I don't care whether you heardor not. Cdownstairs and eat before your mother starves to death."
The door immediately swung open. After looking Rita up and down, Sadie noticed that despite being married, Rita had not changed much. She was still dressed in the sclothes as before. Sadie concluded that Sherman probably did not care much for her either, which put her at ease. "Haven't you learned anything since marrying into the Parr family?" Sadie remarked sarcastically.
