Maja knew Dalia like the back of her hand. She knew that she would retaliate when Dalia’s favourite
son was thrown in jail.
So, Maja recently had people tailing Dalia, and sure enough, she was digging up some dirt.
At this moment, that piece of dirt was right in front of Maja, who was taken aback that Carlene wasn’t a
blood Shepard.
Now, the Shepard household was a total mess.
Carlene was at the centre of the Shepard drama, feeling the judgmental stares piercing her like a
sword Overwhelmed, she clung to Tess’s clothes. “Mom, explain. I am a Shepard!”
But Tess remained silent, the paternity test results lying blatantly nearby.
Carlene wanted to argue back but was met with a resounding slap.
“Get out! You and your mother, get out of the Shepard family!”
Carlene, indignantly clutching her cheek, had given so much, only to be discarded by the Shepards.
“Dad…”
Tm not your dad!”
The man was livid and humiliated under his family’s questioning.
And Dalia was there, adding fuel to the fire.
“Tess herself is infertile. So, Carlene is not even her child. This is Tess’s medical report from years ago.
She had multiple abortions and lost her ability to have children. Carlene was just a kid she picked up.”
Carlene felt dizzy, her world spinning.
Tess snapped back to reality, desperately clinging to the man’s leg.
“Darling, please, for all the years we’ve shared, don’t kick me out.”
But he just kicked her off, storming upstairs in a rage.
The rest just stood there, watching the mother–daughter duo.
Carlene felt an unprecedented shame, her face flushing then paling.
Tess was crying, but all they looked at her with was mockery, no sympathy.
Because she was just the other woman.
Dalia was boasting, “An outsider, a child brought by an outsider, what right do they have to be
Shepards! And you, Carlene, full of lies, saying lan was willing to invest in EverBest Group, but he
didn’t even show up, you lying bitch!”
Carlene and Tess were too humiliated to retort.
Carlene once called the shots in the Shepard family, but now she was treated like a rat everyone spat
on.
She wanted to go upstairs to pack her things, but Dalia stopped her.
“All you have belongs to the Shepards. You outsiders have no right to take anything!”
Carlene glared at Dalia, “You’ve gone too far, Dalia!”
All she got in response was another slap!
Pulling back her hand, Dalia’s eyes were full of hatred, “I told you I would take you down myself!”
Carlene was so angry she was speechless. But she was still in Shepard territory and had already been
excommunicated. If she fought back, she’d only get beaten
worse.
She quickly helped Tess up, filled with resentment.
How could Tess keep something so important from her?
Tess was crying nonstop, even casting hopeful glances upstairs, but the man never appeared.
Carlene supported Tess, walking out of the Shepard mansion.
She wanted to drive away in her luxury car, but Dalia had it towed.
She even smugly told her,
“Your bank account has been frozen. Don’t even think about using any Shepard money!”
Dalia was smirking, a triumphant smile creeping across her face.
“Oh, and I’ve spread the news. Now that lan refuses to invest in the EverBest Group, and you’re
exposed as not a Shepard, let’s see who’s willing to back you. Oh, Carlene, my revenge is far from
over!”
Carlene was starting to regret it. If only she had known Dalia was such a loose cannon, she wouldn’t
have let her son take the fall.
But it was too late now.
She and Tess stood by the road, careless, and had to walk to hail a cab. Thankfully, they had some
cash on them.
Tess was still crying, and Carlene was getting impatient.
“Crying won’t solve anything!”
“Carlene, should we call your dad again? He can’t be this heartless.”
Carlene was annoyed and quickened her pace.
The situation quickly reached Maja, who had people waiting near the Shepard’s mansion.
When Maja got the news, she raised an eyebrow.
This Dalia didn’t disappoint.
She thought momentarily, then texted Carlene, just like Carlene had done to her.
“Looks like Ms. Shepard is going to be homeless tonight.”
Carlene was still fuming. Seeing the text, she wanted to chuck her phone!
But her bank accounts had all been frozen, and she and Tess only had the cash on them.
She tried calling a few of her close friends, but the news that she wasn’t a Shepard had spread too
quickly. Now, no one was willing to take her calls. Carlene felt utterly alone. It was intolerable.
At this moment, faced with Maja’s provocation, she broke down in tears.
But who would have thought that the messages she’s been sending to Maja during this time are way
more brutal than all of this?
Maja can take it, but she can’t. She just felt like the whole world was out to get her.
