Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 3 69% Elysia was completely disappointed in Bella-she valued an adopted daughter more than her own flesh and blood. Elysia couldn't believe there would be such a mother in the world.

"Are you saying you don't wantanymore? My health isn't great, so I need to stay in the sunny room. But just because Emma won't give it up, you're makingmove out on my own, right?” Elysia asked.

Emma was worried about looking bad in front of their parents. She quickly explained, “No, it's not that I don't want you to have the room. It's just that..." She was about to say Bella wouldn't allow it, but caught herself before saying it.

Elysia laughed. "So, you're okay with givingyour room?" "I... Emma hesitated.

"No?" Elysia pouted and turned to Scott. "Dad, you're wrong. Sisters don't always support each other." Scott frowned. "Emma, choose another room. Let Elysia have this one." "Thank you Dad," Elysia said sweetly, putting on her obedient act.

Scott didn't say anything else and left the room.

Emma finally broke down in tears. Bella felt heartbroken. She gently comforted her, saying, 'Don't ery, sweetheart. There are still plenty of rooms in the house. I'll find you the biggest one and make it just right for you." Emma nodded, her eyes red. "Thanks, Mom." "What a loving mother and devoted daughter, Elysia sneered silently.

Mary never imagined that Emma's room would end up going to Elysia. She stood there in shock, watching as Emma's things were moved our box by box.

Given how much Bella cared for Emma, Mary couldn't believe she would actually give Emma's room to Elysia- Even Scott agreed too. Mary realized that Elysia was not someone to mess with.

After everything was settled that evening, Elysia took out her phone and video-called Jack.

The call connected quickly, and Jack greeted her with a big smile "Hey, Elysia! How are you doing? Is the Rosewood family treating you well?" Elysia hesitated. Jack always wanted her to be with her parents like other kids, enjoying their warmth and support. She didn't want him to worry about her. "They treatreally well," she finally said, turning the camera around. "Look at my room. It's not too shabby, right?" "Well, it looks okay. It's a bit plain, though. I'm sorry you're going through this. We just hope that when we're not someone will take care of you," Jack sighed.

around.

Tears filled Elysia's eyes-this was what family really meant. Eighteen years spent together meant more to her than what "biological parents” could offer in this big, cold house.

She missed Silverstream, Jack, Leo, and... But it wasn't tto ge back yet. She had a more important mission to handle with the Rosewood family.

14:01 Tue, Jan 28 Chapter 3 69% Once the video call ended. Elysia tossed and turned, unable to sleep. After sthought, she realized that the pink tones in weren't her style-she'd change it up tomorrow.

The next morning, the three Rosewoods were at the dining table, but Elysia was still missing.

"Why isn't Elysia up yet? Has she been in that awful place so long that she's started sleeping in?" Emma asked. Bella snorted. "And that's not the only bad habit she's picked up.

Emma quickly reassured her, "Mom, please don't be upset. Elysih just got back. It might take her a little while to adjust. I promise I'll help her out more." "You're so understanding, Emma, Bella said. She looked at Emma with warm eyes, thinking that sweet Emma deserved to be her daughter.

"Good morning, everyone, Elysia chimed in, dressed in sporty clothes with her hair pulled up in a high ponytail. The morning sun lit her up, making her look stunning.

Gone was the floral dress from yesterday. Now, her athletic wear highlighted her curves perfectly. She definitely didn't look like a typical girl from the countryside. Instead, she resembled a young lady raised in a prominent family.

Emma was seething with jealousy 'How could she be so lucky? She's not only the biological daughter of the Rosewood family, but it seems like fate has smiled on her with good looks and a great figure.

"She was raised in the country, and yet she doesn't seem like a country bumpkin at all. Her poise is even more refined than mine, while I've grown up in the Rosewood family "Sorry, I have this habit of going for morning runs. I hope I'm not late?" Elysia said with a smile.

"No, that's a great habit. Con and have breakfast, Scott replied, momentarily taken aback by Elysia's beauty. Honestly, she's even prettier than Emma. If we nurture her right, she could be a real asset to the Rosewood family, he thought.

"So, you went for a jog. I thought you'd gotten used to sleeping in after being out in the country for so long. But the Rosewood family isn't just any family. You should dress well and avoid anything that looks cheap, Emma said.

Elysia looked down at her unbranded sportswear and just smiled, not bothering to respond.

Scott pulled out a card from his bag and handed it to Elysia. "Use this card for anything you want. No need to save money.

Emma's jealousy bubbled even more. 'Dad used to micromanage my allowance every month. Now, with Elysia around, he's giving her a secondary card and telling her not to worry about costs. He never treatedlike this! Thanks, Dad, Elysia smiled as she accepted the card.

"Emma is right. Our family is significant. You should head to the inall and get sdignified clothes you like." "Okay, Dad" "By the way, is there any school you're interested in? I can help range it Elysia frowned. "No, not really"

Emma caught the change in Elysia's expression and saw her chance." heard you dropped out before y you finished elementary school. If you go back, doesn't that mean you have to start from seventh grade?" 14.01 Tue, Jan 28 Chapter 3 | 69%

Dropped out of elementary school? Who told her that? Oh, right. I've altered iny records after graduating e from Harfard University. Looks like the Rosewood family has done sdigging, but none of it is true, Elysia thought. She had zipped through a private school, knocking out elementary to high school in just four years. She got into Harfard University at ten and wrapped up with a dual Master's degree by fificen.

This made the Clusian newspapers, but since she shied away from the limelight, her picture never showed up in the papers.

Thinking about it made her chuckle-Jack and the other had even worried that she was too smart and might go bald in middle age.

"Why not think about the school Emma went to? It's a combo middle and high school, Bella suggested.

"But getting into my school ain't a walk in the park. Back in the day h had to nail the grade ten piano exam and was runner-up in a national speech contest. You got any special skills, Elysia? Emma asked. "Nope." Elysia replied flatly.

Emma's smirk grew wider. Just as I expected, this country bumpkin has beauty, but no brains or skills to back it up.

"But I'll pick the sschool as Emma." Elysia had initially wanted to stay out of it, but seeing Emma's smug grin got under her skin. Suddenly, she was all set to push back.
