Hearing her daughter being complimented, Marilyn's guard unnoticeably loosened halfway.

Although Mrs. Klein had ill intentions towards Steph, her biological sister was quite nice to her. No one else in this world would love Steph other than her.

If she could have an additional loving sister...

With this in mind, Marilyn's face softened, and she said with a smile, "You're too kind, Ms. Klein."

"Mrs. Bishop, please call me Katherine. That's how my close friends call me, it sounds more intimate..."

Stephanie prepared lunch for her mom and came to the hospital. As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw both of them chatting so passionately.

Mom seemed to be in a good mood, but Stephanie's face changed slightly when her eyes swept to the woman next to her.

Why was Katherine here?

Katherine was sitting on Marilyn's bed facing the door, and she immediately saw Stephanie outside the door, which was why she became even more enthusiastic in talking to Marilyn. Seeing how eager Stephanie was that day to protect her mom, she obviously cared a lot about her.

Finally, after talking for a long time, Stephanie still stood at the doorway, and Katherine pretended to just notice her and stood up excitedly, saying, "Oh, Steph is here!"

Stephanie glanced at her perfunctorily and said, "It's such a pleasure to have you here, Ms. Klein! What brings you here today?"

Before Katherine could answer, Marilyn interjected, "Steph, what's with that tone with your sister!"

Stephanie wasn't pleased, "I don't have any sister! Mom, don't listen to them. Don't be fooled by the bad guys, let alone cover for them!"

The corner of Katherine's mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this. It seemed like this little girl was way more clever and not so easy to deceive. But it didn't matter, she had time and patience. After all, the thought of getting closer to Sebastian through Stephanie pumped her up.

"Mrs. Bishop, it's alright. My mom has offended Steph before, so she might take some time to accept me as her sister. I genuinely like Steph as my little sister, and I believe that over time, she'll see the goodin me and be willing to get close to me."

Stephanie couldn't help but roll her eyes hearing this.

She wanted to drive her away, but her mom had already been won over. If she drove her away now, her mom would definitely be upset.

Meanwhile, Marilyn smiled warmly, "You are such a good sister, so sensible."

"Mom, are you full from that soup? Do you want lunch?"

"The soup was brought by her. It's delicious-you should have some, too..."

Stephanie almost fainted from anger, "Mom, how can you be so forgiving! Did you forget how Mrs. Klein insulted you before and how much she hated you? What if this is a trap set by these two, and the soup is poisoned? You might have already been poisoned by now!"

"Steph, I came to visit your mom with good intentions. How could you think it of me like that..."

Katherine looked at her with a hurt expression.

Marilyn couldn't help but glare at Stephanie, "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you been watching too many TV dramas..."

She's already defending Katherine

so quickly! Stephanie was infuriated

and pointed at the door, "The door is right there, Ms. Klein! No matter what your intentions are, my mom needs rest. Please don't disturb her in the future. Thank you! Goodbye!"
