There was one thing Cara Preston had to admit, whether she liked it or not: ever since Vera Xavier's return, she was no longer the true daughter of the Preston family. Zachary Preston treated her coldly, Rona Langdon harbored ill intentions, and she had very few people she could truly rely on.
She took a deep breath, her eyes filled with an unprecedented ruthlessness. 'No matter what it takes, I have to marry Nathaniel Nathan!'
After Rona Langdon left the Preston family's house, she kept waiting for Zachary Preston to call her back. She even stood by the gate for a while, ready to dash off the moment he appeared so he would have to properly coax her into returning.
However, her whole plan went awry. Zachary Preston never came out to get her!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, so she actually went back to her parents' house.
