“It’s futile even if you’re here.” Yelena went on. “This is our family matter. My dad is taking the house back. I’m here to get them to move out today!”

“Move out?” Marcus scoffed. “What makes you think that you can do that?”

“For the fact that I’m my father’s daughter.” Yelena glared at him at the side of her eye. “I’m the first daughter of the Jenners!”

Cordelia felt her heart give a squeeze. She quickly went over to tuck at Marcus.

He turned his head to look at her. He was gentle and determined, with a faint smile at the corner of his lips.

Cordelia was stunned. She was so anxious that she was getting goosebumps.

The sensitive Yelena noticed that.

“Hah, what?” She raised her voice on purpose. “Marcus, you look like a dumb dumb. I guess you don’t know the woman that you married?”

“Yelena!” Cordelia could no longer hold back. She gave Yelena a murderous stare.

“What? You’re silencing me? You’ve been pretending to be me for six months, my dear sister. You don’t want your husband to know that?”

“Shut your mouth!”

“She’s the Jenners’ illegitimate daughter!” Yelena felt proud. “Her mother is a shameless b*tch! She seduced my dad and gave birth to Cordelia, and then she went on to have another b*stard with another man! She’s now mentally ill, being all delirious in the hospital!”

Cordelia covered her ears in despair. “Stop it!”

“Do you know why she married you? For the dowry, so that she could get money from my dad to fix her mom!”

“Yelena, you b*tch—”

Cordelia lost it and screamed.

She collapsed, her eyes red and face pale. At that moment, it felt as if she was stripped naked in a crowd. Yelena busted the secret she had hidden with so much effort just like that.

She felt pissed and ashamed. She charged and shoved Yelena.

The latter staggered and almost fell. In her rage, she grabbed a vase and threw it at Cordelia. “How dare you shove me, b*tch!?”

However, before the vase was thrown, someone grabbed hard on her wrist.
