Chapter 6
Behind the girl was a refined middle–aged man with a cold expression and a serious face.
Jessica’s gaze was firmly fixed on Whitney. She clenched her fist and dug her nails into her palm, but her hatred had already overshadowed her pain.
Whitney walked over happily to her side. She was as exquisite as a princess as she was dressed entirely in white. The two of them were like a white swan and ugly duckling in the fairy tales, and her presence made one feel ashamed of one’s appearance,
Whitney looked at the person in front of her. Her skin was fair and light, her facial features were exquisite, and even though she was wearing catered clothes, she could not hide her beauty.
Her appearance even stood out among her friends, and it made Whitney feel a little uncomfortable.
She smiled, took her arm, and happily chirped, “Can I call you Jess?”
“Call me Jessica”
Whitney was filled with disappointment, but she quickly smiled sweetly. “Jessica, let me introduce our parents to you. This is our dad and this is our mom. In the future, we will live together.”
Jessica looked at the familiar yet distant middle–aged couple in front of her. The smile on Julianna never vanished since Whitney appeared downstairs.
As for her father, he was still cold and serious. Even though he had just seen his biological daughter he had been separated from for many years,

Julianna softly said, “Jessica, you have to get along with Whitney in the future. Even though Whitney is not our child, we have already decided to adopt her. In the future, she will be your older sister. You must take good care of her, understood?”
What a ridiculous sentence.
“I have only heard that an older sister should take care of a younger sister. I have not heard the reverse
The smile on Julianna’s lips froze.
Whitney immediately took her arm, and whined, “Mom, I am already a grown up, I don’t need anyone to take care of me. Since Jessica just arrived. I should be the one taking care of her. Hmph, you think too little of me!”
Julianna was immediately amused, and squeezed her nose lovingly,
The head of the family, James, who had not spoken so far, finally said, “You’ve become sensible:
He then said to Jessica, “In the future, this will be your home. If you want something or lack something, just tell your mom. Let her help you buy it”
“Since you have gotten acquainted, I will now take my sister upstairs to her room. With that said, Whitney did not ask for her opinion, and immediately took her to the second floor.
Seeing how enthusiastic her daughter was, Julianna smilingly said. Just look at this child.”
Her voice was filled with affection
Looking at Jessica, her voice became extremely cold. “If you don’t like it, tell us. We will change it
