Tanya: “???”

Nora: “???”

Everyone in the room could hear the disdain hidden in Sue’s words.

What did she mean by saying that Tanya’s status had risen because she had given birth to Joel’s child?!

She was clearly refusing to acknowledge Tanya’s status!

Who would bring up someone else’s humiliating childhood events in front of other people?

The look in Nora’s eyes turned cold, and she threw the bangle onto the coffee table, producing a crisp clang.

However, it was as if Sue hadn’t sensed anything at all. She went on and said, “Joel, I heard that the two of you started dating in junior high and only broke up when you graduated from college? To think the two of you can still get together even after five years of separation… and that you can still hold your daughter in your arms. Tanya, you must feel very blissful to be able to live in such a big house, right?”

The look in Tanya’s eyes turned even colder. She wanted to pull her hand out of the woman’s grip, but Sue kept holding her hand tightly. “People mustn’t forget their roots. Tanya, it was the Joneses who fed you and brought you up. Now that you have married into a rich family… let’s not talk about repaying their kindness anymore, but at the very least, you mustn’t be an ingrate, right?”

Tanya narrowed her eyes. “I don’t understand what you’re trying to say, Mrs. Smith.”

Joel also got up abruptly. His expression turned cold and he said, “Tanya, why don’t you go upstairs and take a look at the child? Mia seems to be calling out for you.”
