"A person doesn't get many chances in life to truly let loose. It's always better to get it out than keep it bottled up inside."Forget your mother, even I want to lose it! The only things holding me back are my position and reputation. You don't understand... When your mother cries, my heart bleeds right along with hers."Jonas let out a long sigh and hung up.Otto stood there with the phone still in his hand, unable to collect his thoughts for a long time.He had assumed that once the truth came out, all he needed to do was cut ties with Rayne as quickly as possible, settle everything in one clean stroke, and let their family's life slowly return to normal.Only now did he realize that this marriage had been nothing short of a devastating earthquake in his parents' otherwise calm, stable lives.They had once longed for him to marry, and they had grieved just as deeply when his marriage ended. They had once yearned for a grandchild, and the revelation that the grandson they had

Milena sobbed as she gripped Lucille's hand tightly. Her emotions spiraled out of control once more. "Why does it have to be like this? Why should the Prescott and Sullivan families get to bully us so shamelessly?!"Why does Elaine get to demand an outrageous betrothal gift from me while treating you with such appalling stinginess?!"Lucy, you're right. We can't keep putting up with this!"Dignity, manners, family reputation... it's all nonsense! Trying to act dignified in front of trash like them is the cruelest thing you can do to yourself!"Milena shot to her feet. The alcohol made her sway slightly, but her eyes held a sharper resolve than ever before."From now on, the two of us are joining forces, and we're going to make them pay! We'll let everyone in Coasthaven know exactly how the Sullivan and Prescott families drove decent people mad! I'm going to ruin their reputations and make them regret ever being born!" she declared.Caught up in her fervor, Lucille rose as well. S

"Then I, the youngest sister, will team up with Otto and handle backup and support from the inside. I can't wait to see the two of you tear through them tonight."The three women slapped hands in satisfaction, then split up and sprang into action.…Night fell. At exactly 7:00 p.m., the top-floor ballroom of Cloudedge Club glittered beneath dazzling crystal chandeliers.Amid a haze of perfume and silk, Coasthaven's most prominent society ladies gathered in small groups, murmuring among themselves as a faint undercurrent of restlessness swept through the room.Elaine wore a dark green dress with a high slit along one leg, while Wendy had chosen a black-and-white Chanel-style evening gown. Both women stood at the entrance to greet their guests, flawless smiles fixed on their faces.Rayne, Michelle, and Daphne were also there to help with the arrangements and entertain the guests.Rayne wore a pale apricot chiffon gown with delicate fringed earrings that swayed gently at her ears.

Wendy immediately went on the offensive, and Madam Moore and Madam Luxon, who stood among the crowd, quickly joined in.Julia Moore spoke up with biting sarcasm. "The Westbrook family's second lady seems awfully close to Joanne. Could she be hoping her son will marry Joanne's daughter as his second wife?"But from what I've heard, Lucille hasn't even finalized her divorce yet. The Westbrook family really can't wait, can they?"Kelly Luxon feigned shock. "Is that so? Goodness! And here I thought the Westbrook family always considered themselves above everyone else. I assumed their standards must be exceptionally high! Who knew they'd stoop this low?"Mocking laughter rippled through the crowd.Kelly arched her brows, clearly pleased with herself. "No wonder her son divorced so suddenly. Turns out they'd already been carrying on behind everyone's backs. Haha..."She turned her ridicule on Milena next. "Madam Carroll, aren't you supposed to be a university professor? Yet you let you

Elaine jabbed a finger so close to Milena's face that it nearly touched her, her voice shrill. "Now I see it clearly. Milena, you didn't come here for charity at all. You came here specifically to wreck this event!"I'll admit your family has deep pockets and a big name, but that doesn't give you the right to bully people just because you can!"Back then, Otto turned on us without a shred of mercy and threw Rayne and her son out onto the street just like that. We haven't even settled that score with him yet, and here you are, playing the wronged party and coming after us instead!"Wendy's eyes reddened at once. She even managed to squeeze out a few tears before turning to the room full of guests and tearfully airing her grievances. "Ladies, please, someone has to speak up for me! Rayne married into the Westbrook family for five years and worked so hard to give them a healthy baby boy."And what happened? Otto didn't even bother sorting out right from wrong. He simply divorced her a
