Divorce Anxiety

Chapter 233 An Evil Idea

Everyone in the hall gasped, trying to make sense of what she meant.

“Shut up!” Yasmine was enraged. “Vanessa, have you lost your mind?” “You’re the ones who’ve lost your minds!” Vanessa yelled at the top of her lungs. “It’s our family’s assets. Why should it be given to an illegitimate child whose origin we don’t even know?” “Enough!” Yasmine was clearly pissed off. “Vanessa, do you know what you’re talking about?”

Vanessa scoffed, “Of course I do. In fact, I know everything. Ms. Schott, you’re my biological aunt. Shouldn’t you know more about this matter?”

The keen senses of the reporters present told them that juicy gossip was about to be released.

They became excited and started shooting questions at Yasmine.

“Ms. Schott, can you answer Ms. Yoeger’s question?1 “Ms. Schott, what’s happening? Just whose daughter is Kathleen’s mother?” “If Kathleen’s not Old Mr. Yoeger’s granddaughter, is she still qualified to inherit the Yoeger family’s assets?”

Yasmine’s face darkened. “How is Kathleen an outsider? Even if she’s not Old Mr. Yoeger’s biological granddaughter, she’s still the only descendant left by your mother’s daughter.

Vanessa let out an arrogant laugh. “Aunt Yasmine, if Kathleen’s mother, Rebecca, was actually my sister from a different father, I’d gladly accept the decision.
