The voice was clear and pleasant but cold, shocking everyone present.

Everyone suddenly turned around to see Joel, who had returned home at some point, standing outside the crowd.

The man, who usually had a smile on his face, had a frosty look at the moment.

Everyone who saw him subconsciously stepped aside and made way for him.

Just like that, Joel took step after step toward Tanya and went up to her .

As he stood beside her and held her hand, his attractive fox-like eyes glanced at Jill.

Jill's heart trembled at the sight of him.

But when she thought of how Joel had always shown her mercy in the past, she became bold again.

"The Joneses brought Tanya up.By virtue of our kindness in bringing her up, how are we unworthy of it?"

The Joneses had brought Tanya up? The woman must have forgotten again how Tanya had survived! At the Joneses, she survived by eating garbage that the others had left behind.

The money that she bought her school textbooks with were all earned by working as a babysitter for the Joneses.

The nine-year compulsory education was free of charge.

Even the money for her tuition in high school had come from her distributing flyers during summer vacations! What kind of financial support had they given her? Joel had decided not to hold it against the Joneses all this time simply because Jill was Tanya's mother.

No matter how badly she treated Tanya, she was her biological mother.

This was a fact that would never change! He hadn't made any moves because he was afraid that Tanya would come to regret it in the future.
