Slap! Sandra slammed her palm hard across Derek’s cheek, leaving behind a scarlet mark.

Instead of fighting back, Derek only touched his face and let out a sigh. “Huh. That was harsh.” Not only was it harsh, but Sandra probably wanted to hit him to death.

Both of them were illegitimate children, but she was being restrained and was struggling with her life right now. Yet, Derek had gone up in the world!

On what grounds? A slap was not enough to express the wrath in Sandra’s heart. Pointing at Derek’s nose, she cursed, “Don’t forget your identity, Derek. Your father is Alex, not Cooper. How can you betray your own father for a traitor? Aren’t you afraid you’d be struck by lightning?”

However, Derek did not want to talk about that with Sandra. After all these years, all that should be said had been said. Whether he was Derek Oak or Derek Mitchell, he had nothing to do with Sandra and Alex.

He turned around and wanted to leave the scene. But, Sandra caught up and stopped him from leaving. Taking out a flash drive from nowhere, she handed it to Derek. Arrogantly, she said, “I’m giving you a chance to redeem yourself. Make a copy of all the confidential info of Dragon Technology. I want all the personal information of the customers, the marketing strategies, and the systems. After you’ve done that, I’ll make sure you’re inside the Mitchell Family’s genealogy record book! I’ll also ask Dad to acknowledge you in public so that you can return to the family.”

Derek took the flash drive and smiled. “Sure.”

Instantly, Sandra was thrilled. As she had expected, no one would be able to resist the temptation of being added into the genealogy record book of the family. Derek was her biological brother, and they were both illegitimate children. Naturally, she knew what Derek wanted. She would wait for Derek to give her a copy of all the information she requested. However, there was no way he would be added to the genealogy record book!

The Mitchell Family belonged to her. If Derek returned to them, there would be one more competitor. His existence was like a reminder to her that she was just an illegitimate child. No matter how hard she tried, she would never be able to get rid of that pathetic status!
