She took two steps back and bumped into Sarah, who was equally dumbfounded.

It wasn’t just them. In fact, the entire Lawrence family had a grim expression on their faces.

The emergence of an illegitimate daughter taking a share of the Lawrence family’s fortune was already unbearable, not to mention the fact that the Lawrence family’s eldest daughter, who had been "dead" for many years, had "come back to life."

This wasn’t just a matter of a little share anymore.

Her return even affected the entire family’s fixed structure.

Who could welcome her back?

Edward was welcoming, but that was because he didn’t even care for the heir position.

The biggest beneficiary and the happiest person here today was James.

The thing he had never dared to dream about had come true today.

He had heard his mother say it aloud, and his heart was already so overwhelmed that words couldn’t describe it—joy beyond measure flooded him.

    Denise let out a bitter laugh.“Oh, I’m the one talking nonsense, am I? Isn’t this whole scene just meant to humiliate me in public?”“I pretended not to know, trying so hard to protect your reputation. But you—knowing I had neither the standing nor the backing—joined forces to trample me like this!”“You stand there, acting so righteous, so noble. And you dare talk about the true young lady of the Lawrence family? So what—you mean to tell me that my own child isn’t even worth the one born from some woman outside?”“Well, you’ve finally gotten what you wanted. I’ve become the joke of all of Shandor. Fine. Let everyone see how thoroughly you’ve disgraced me.”Her voice quivered with heartbreak and despair—an accusation dripping in pain.And hidden within it were a few bombs:First, Candice had just been acknowledged as James&rsqu

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 389 The True Heiress of The Lawrence family

    A trace of helplessness flickered in Candice’s eyes.She had no intention of competing for favor.If she could, she would rather both Mrs. Lawrence and her grandmother give up the idea of making her the “Lo family’s young lady.” As for her and Charlie — she’d never expected a grand ending. She had never fought tooth and nail to marry into the Clemens family.But clearly, tonight wasn’t up to her. At least not when it came to this recognition of kinship.“Madam Clemens, Miss Lawrence.” She greeted politely, her smile flawless and composed as ever.“Grandma…” Edith didn’t even glance at Candice, her eyes misty as she looked at Mrs. Lawrence — though they drifted once toward Charlie standing tall behind her grandmother, his handsome face igniting another pang of unwillingness in her chest.Grandma had promised to help her find a suitable husband, and she couldn

    A poisonous glint hid beneath her smile.In just a few seconds, she pieced together the truth — drawn from the things James had been secretly doing behind her back, and the guilty flicker in his eyes at this very moment.He’d hired a private detective to spy on Candice.He’d done a paternity test.And today, that old man had even personally brought Candice to the birthday banquet.Wasn’t the answer obvious?But it looked like the old man was at the end of his rope — he’d even brought back such a low-class illegitimate daughter to help Edward?Had he realized this lost bastard girl actually had some tricks up her sleeve?Ha. If Rosie knew that James had a love affair in Vanclyn, she’d probably die of rage all over again.But speaking of Rosie… why did Candice resemble her, just a little?She used to think it was coincidence — that James’s lingering feelin

    A flash of irritation crossed his eyes.How stupid could she be to say something so brainless?With so many people around, if that nonsense spread to Charlie’s ears, the fragile peace he and Candice had just rebuilt would crumble in an instant.Whether Candice had latched onto the Clemens family or the Lawrence family—it was none of the Jackson family’s business anymore.Caroline felt wronged after being scolded by her husband, but Kyle had no time to care about his parents. His gaze fell on Candice, his eyes so deep they almost ached.Even now, it still felt unreal to him that she had left.After all those years together, she had simply walked away—decisive, without hesitation—while he was left standing in place, watching her silhouette fade further and further away.His punishment, it seemed, would never end.Across the hall, the Jones family was grinding their teeth at the sight of Candice walki

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 386 Shocked the Entire Room

    “Sophia, Jerry, do you two have any way to get me out of here?”With a desperate expression, I hooked my arms around both their shoulders.Three heads leaned together — it was time for some serious best-friend crisis talk.Sophia said, “Since you’re already here, just go with it. What’s there to be afraid of? Besides, if you don’t show up soon, that Edith girl might pull some dirty trick — maybe even slip something into your boyfriend’s drink.”I sighed. “...I’m asking how to leave, not how to stay.”Jerry added, “You’re already here — whether you stick your neck out or shrink back, the blade’s the same. You’re just scared that the boss will be mad at you for pretending to be sick and sneaking out to meet your parents and grandma. But come on, he already knows. A little more or less stimulation won’t make much difference now.”
