her mother's delusions. Angela's mother loved Jayna's father, but the father married Selena (Jayna's mother), and Angela's mother had to marry baron Vito (Angela's father) due to the king's order because Vito was a war hero. Vito mentally suffered from the war - like PTSD, he donated all his wealth to the poor, so he and his family had to live in poverty, he was a hard drinker and even physically abused his wife when he was drunk. Angela used to kill and torture small animals when she was young, there was one time Jayna's father brought his family to visit Vito (they were friends), the young Jayna saw an injured animal (the poor thing was tortured by Angela) and pitied it and wanted to help it, Angela saw that so she hated Jayna. Then when she went home, she saw Selena and admired how beautiful she was, then her mother told her that all the luxury Selena and Jayna had would have belonged to Angela and her mother if the duke married her instead of Selena
