Became Like You.

Previously, she had refused to admit this. However, when Jayesh Chauhan thought that she hated him, she suddenly became honest. Clearly, it was because she still loved Jayesh Chauhan and was even unwilling to let Jayesh Chauhan question her love!

It was precisely because of this that Jairam Tiwari was even more disappointed. A word from another man could provoke her to such an extent. As her husband, how should he deal with this?

The humiliation was piling up. He was already riddled with holes.

Riya Rathore looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief. She didn't dare to imagine that Sunaina Rathore's thoughts were so vicious and unreasonable.

Jayesh Chauhan clasped Riya Rathore's fingers tightly, his actions extremely comforting.

He waved his hand to signal Isha to stand beside him.

After a moment of silence, Isha stood beside Riya Rathore and said softly, "Mom."

Sunaina Rathore watched their family stand together warmly and harmoniously. She closed her eyes and said, "Jayesh Chauhan, I really don't hate you... I just love you too much."

Jayesh Chauhan couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes. "Your love is too twisted. No one can bear it. This isn't love, it's just selfishness. You broke up my family and took my daughter away, making all of us suffer. Sunaina Rathore, you're not worthy of love."

"I'm selfish? I've never been selfish! In the Rathore family, I was humble and tried my best to integrate into that family. But have you ever asked how the Rathore family treated me? They never treated me as a member of the Rathore family. Clearly, Riya Rathore and I are both daughters of the Rathore family, but how were we treated?

"Even if Riya Rathore didn't put in any effort, she was still able to obtain everyone's love, praise, and concern. She was able to enjoy high popularity. As for me, only by being conscientious and working hard could I obtain slightly good treatment.

"It was the same even with Dad's inheritance. What did she do that made her deserving of getting a share of the inheritance? I worked my *ss off to take care of Dad for years and worked harder than a caregiver or a servant to get a small chance for my child!

"Even Jayesh Chauhan! The Chauhan family has a good relationship with the Rathore family. When the Rathore family wanted to marry Riya Rathore to Jayesh Chauhan, they never once considered me. If I had met Jayesh Chauhan before Riya Rathore, wouldn't I have had that opportunity too?"

Sunaina Rathore was originally gentle and introverted. She had always been silent in front of others.

However, at this moment, as she recounted the various injustices she suffered in the Rathore family, her expression and gaze were exactly the same as Yami's previous madness. Only at this moment did the mother and daughter have the same personality and emotions.

She tried to stand, but she forgot about her bad legs and fell out of the wheelchair.

She fell hard, but no one came forward to help her.

Jairam Tiwari had already given up, and Yami could not even take care of herself now. Old Master Tiwari was extremely disappointed and could only watch helplessly.

Sunaina Rathore crawled a few times but couldn't get up. She choked with embarrassment and said, "How am I inferior to others? Must I suffer these grievances and hardships? How am I inferior to Riya Rathore? How am I inferior to her in every aspect?

"And Jayesh Chauhan, even if you didn't like me, why did you lead me on?"

Jayesh Chauhan was puzzled and even more embarrassed. He said seriously to Riya Rathore, "Riya, I didn't."

Even though Sunaina Rathore was crying tears of blood, he was only concerned about Riya Rathore's feelings. Anyone with a discerning eye could see through his thoughts at a glance, but Sunaina Rathore could not.

She said loudly, "You didn't lead me on? Why did you give me a book when I was crying in grievance upon coming to the Rathore family?"

"Huh..." Jayesh Chauhan had completely forgotten about such a thing.

"You even said that there's nothing in life that I can't get past. It's because of this that I fell in love with you and have always remembered you deeply! But you later fell in love with Riya Rathore!"

Jayesh Chauhan frowned in deep thought. Then, as if he had finally remembered, he said to Riya Rathore, "I have some impression of what she's talking about. When I came to the Rathore family, I saw someone crying. I thought she was a servant of the Rathore family, so I casually gave her my book. Moreover, that book was originally stuffed into my hand by some woman earlier in the day. I didn't know at that time that the person crying was Sunaina Rathore, and I completely forgot about it later. After that, I didn't have any interaction with her."

Riya Rathore nodded gently. "Of course, I believe you. I know very well how you've treated me all these years. Even when I was sick, you kept taking care of me. I don't need anyone to tell me this."

The expression on Sunaina Rathore's face cracked. She did not expect that Jayesh Chauhan did not take her seriously at all. In fact, at that time, he only handed the book to her because he did not want the book that someone had given him to occupy his hand. Furthermore, he thought she was a servant!

All her fantasies were destroyed by Riya Rathore. Riya Rathore was the star in the sky, while she was just dust on the ground.

"Jayesh Chauhan, you!" Sunaina Rathore's humble and fervent admiration was turned into a complete joke.

In fact, she should have known better. Jayesh Chauhan had never looked her in the eye since that encounter. She had written so many love letters that revealed her feelings, yet Jayesh Chauhan had casually handed them over to his assistant to deal with. The letters were piled there, covered in dust. Many of them were never even opened.

Jayesh Chauhan only had Riya Rathore in his heart. She had no place in his heart!

"Sunaina Rathore, I had no interactions with you, let alone any personal feelings. Did you really think that taking my daughter away would satisfy your selfishness? All the unfair treatment you think you received in the Rathore family wasn't because of the Rathore family. It was brought to you by your mother and even more so by your own inferiority, cowardice, selfishness, and jealousy!

"When Father was still alive, do you dare to say that he didn't have any fatherly love for you? Didn't the entire Rathore family raise you and send you to receive a proper education? You originally had the same starting point as Riya and went to the same school as her, but you were far from Riya. Was this also brought to you by the Rathore family?" Jayesh Chauhan looked straight at Sunaina Rathore and questioned her calmly.

Sunaina Rathore grabbed her clothes fiercely, her fingers distorted.

"The reason why the Rathore family hates you has to do with your mother. Don't you have any awareness? How do you think you're going to make them accept an illegitimate daughter like you who turned the entire Rathore family upside down but thinks that you've suffered a great grievance? How are you going to make up for the 20 years you let Isha wander outside?"

Jayesh Chauhan's words echoed in the ward, cold and full of strength.

Old Madam Rathore sighed softly. "Sunaina, I admit that I didn't treat you that well. I can't treat the daughter of a woman who betrayed me and took away my husband's love well. However, is this the reason why you hurt Isha and almost caused their family to fall apart? You're selfish, and it's all because of your grievances and discomfort. But have you ever thought about others?

"Riya was grateful that you had taken care of the old man for so many years, so she kept saying good things about you. Even when you were giving birth, she invited you to the hospital where she was in order to let you receive excellent care. But what did you repay Riya with? You let her and her daughter be separated for more than 20 years!

"Sunaina, I'll leave my words here. From now on, you're no longer a member of the Rathore family. Everything in the Rathore family has nothing to do with you. You can't be forgiven for taking the child away!"

Sunaina Rathore raised her eyes, her gaze fierce. "The Rathore family's inheritance was left behind by my father's will. There are lawyers to testify. What should be given to my daughter will be given to her and not a cent less!"

"Go ahead and find a lawyer, then. If I have to give you anything from the inheritance, consider it my loss!" When Old Madam Rathore was young, she was also a ruthless person. She had risked her life with Old Master Rathore and had experienced many things. When she spoke ruthlessly, she was not inferior to young people.

Sunaina Rathore was stunned.

Yami came back to her senses. "That's mine. You can't deprive me of something..."

Jayesh Chauhan glanced at the two women with extreme disgust. He was extraordinarily handsome, and being despised by him was like being crushed by a huge rock.

Sunaina Rathore and Yami Tiwari were shocked.

Riya Rathore slowly walked forward, squatted down, and said softly to Sunaina Rathore, "I really didn't expect that in your heart, I was such a person. In the past, you and I had always been harmonious. I always thought of you as a good friend. Even if we weren't related by blood, I thought that our relationship was still good. Now that I think about it, I was really blind when I was young. I actually believed that you could really be a good person.

"Back then, I quarreled with my mother and brother a lot because of you. In the end, my efforts have really made me an ingrate. What you repaid me with was to replace my child and carry her away. You caused us to be separated for more than 20 years and made me suffer for years..."

She spoke gently. Even when she was accusing Sunaina Rathore, she did it kindly and politely. But when she got to this point, she couldn't go on.

Jayesh Chauhan reached out to support her, his eyes filled with heartache.

"Perhaps even now, you still think that what you did was right. The entire world has let you down, but you're the only one who endured the grievances and heartache. No one can change your mind, and I don't expect someone like you to recognize your mistake and apologize to me." Riya Rathore stared at Sunaina Rathore. "But look at everything you've done. Look at what your daughter has become. Others might find it strange, but you shouldn't find it strange at all, because she's just another you."

Sunaina Rathore suddenly recovered from her daze, and hatred flashed in her eyes. "Don't spout nonsense. I'm not like that, nor is my daughter. Riya Rathore, you're really vicious!"

"No, I'm not vicious enough. I despise myself for not being vicious enough! Do you know the heart-wrenching pain I've endured for the past 20 years? Can you understand my growing longing for my daughter? You can't, because you have no heart. But fortunately, during the past 20 years, my daughter grew to be like me. And your daughter has become you."

When Riya Rathore said this, a trace of pain flashed across her eyes, but when she turned around to look at Isha, this pain gradually subsided. No matter how deep the pain was, it was all healed by the sight of her daughter in front of her.

"Ah! Ah!" Sunaina Rathore was agitated by these words. She did not know what to say and could only vent her dissatisfaction and pain by shouting.

She looked both twisted and terrifying. Even Yami took a few steps back and distanced herself from her.

"Ah!!! Yami, is that how you look at your mom? Is that how you look at me? Is that it? Huh? Is that it?" She tried to stand up, but the problem with her legs made it impossible. She crawled toward Yami.

"Ah!" Yami screamed in fear. She had never seen her mother being so terrifying.

Jayesh Chauhan couldn't stand it anymore. He reached out and pulled Riya Rathore up. "Let's go."

Old Madam Rathore snorted and took the lead to walk out. Jayesh Chauhan and Riya Rathore held Isha's hands and walked out one after another, leaving behind a scene that no one could bear to watch.

Isha suddenly turned around and ran to Old Master Tiwari's side. He looked old and helpless with a deep frown. Everything that was happening in front of him made him look very serious.

He looked up at Isha. The emotions she saw in his eyes crashed into her heart, making her feel heavy and especially uncomfortable.

She bent down beside Old Master Tiwari and whispered, "I'm sorry, Grandpa."

She had happily exposed Yami's and Sunaina Rathore's crimes back then, but doing this was like a knife in Old Master Tiwari's heart.

He was not wrong, but he had to worry for the juniors and bear more shame than they did.

Apart from apologizing, Isha didn't know what else to say. The weight of those three words was exceptionally light.

Old Master Tiwari shook his head. There was a hint of love in his turbid eyes. "Don't apologize. You're not the one who did something wrong."

Isha was silent. Although she was also a victim, she felt uneasy with Old Master Tiwari.

"Go on." There was relief in his eyes. "You don't have to be bullied now that there are people who dote on you. I'm relieved."

Isha held his old hands. They were exceptionally dry now, like the last tenacious trees in autumn.

She didn't let go for a long time.

Then, a series of capable footsteps sounded outside the door. The door was pushed open and Jiya Tiwari appeared.

When she saw the scene, even though Jiya Tiwari had already expected it, she still couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise. Sunaina Rathore and Yami Tiwari looked... very different from humans. They looked a little like animals.

"Grandpa, I've come to pick you up," Jiya Tiwari whispered. She leaned over and helped Old Master Tiwari put on his coat.

"Thank you," Isha said softly. Jiya Tiwari arrived as soon as she called, which saved her from worrying too much.

"Leave Grandpa to me," Jiya Tiwari said to Jairam Tiwari. "Second Uncle, let Grandpa stay with me for the time being."
