them were here to ask if the wedding would still be held.
When they heard that it would be, they started to give her wedding gifts in the pretense of friendship.

Maureen found someone to make a note of the gifts and their senders, so that Tanya could return the favor later.

Seeing how troublesome the situation was, Nora frowned.

She suddenly didn’t feel like having a wedding anymore.
How boring must it be to just sit and wait on the sofa? If she had that much spare time, she might as well just go to bed instead!

But it seemed like she was thinking too much.
She didn’t have many friends in the States anyway.
It was different for Tanya, who grew up in New York, after all… With that in mind, Nora went down the stairs and up to Tanya.
She said teasingly, “To think you said that you didn’t have any friends.
Does this look like you don’t have any friends?” “… Do you even remember your kindergarten classmates?”

Nora: “?”

Tanya smiled wryly and said, “I really don’t have any impression of them.
These people even said that they danced with me when we were children! How would I possibly remember anyone from when I was five or six?!”

Nora instantly understood.

These people were here to ingratiate themselves with the Smiths in the name of being good friends with Tanya!

The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed.

At this point, the butler hurriedly walked in and said, “Ms.
Nora, Mdm.
Tanya, this is terrible! Mrs.
Jones is here again! She’s crying at the door because we refuse to let her in…”

Nora and Tanya looked at each other.

The butler sighed.
“We do want to drive her away, but with so many people coming and going today, it won’t reflect well on us if people were to notice.
How should I handle this?”

Nora sneered.

She was originally planning to find an opportunity to spill the beans about Jill and Mr.
Jones’ conversation in the car.
With Jill rushing over to court death now, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity!

She sent Lily a message straightaway: ‘Have you brought the DNA report back?’ Lily responded very quickly: “I’m on the way.”

When Nora saw her reply, she stood and raised her almond-shaped eyes, making her seem like someone who took swift and resolute action.
She walked out of the house slowly and said, “Then let’s go and meet her.”

Tanya originally didn’t want to, but Nora was already walking out of the house, so she could only follow behind.

As soon as the two went out, they saw Jill sitting on a big rock outside the gate to the Smiths’ manor.
She was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Next to her, someone was passing by and asked, “Mrs.
Jones, are you crying because you can’t bear to part with your daughter, who will be married soon?”

Jill heaved a huge sigh.
“Of course.
I gave birth to her after all.
No matter how badly I treat her, she was once part of my body…”

When Hillary and Tanya were embroiled in a lawsuit, Jill and Tanya had fallen out very badly.
To be honest, everyone knew that the relationship between the mother and daughter was not good.

So, what was Jill here to show off about?

A lot of people had come to the Smiths’ to deliver gifts today.
More than a dozen ladies had slowly gathered around Jill by now.
Including their chauffeurs, assistants, and servants who had come with them, there were nearly thirty people surrounding Jill at the moment.

Jill stood there and wept.
“My life is so hard.
What could I do after those things happened and I became pregnant with that murderer’s child back then? Being young and kind, I could only give birth to the child… It’s true that I didn’t treat her well, but she is the child of a murderer and even a rapist! I can’t help but think of her father whenever I see her.
How could have I treated her well? Sob…”

As soon as she started weeping, the unsuspecting people around her immediately realized something.

“As it turns out, there is actually more to it than it seems!”

“It’s no wonder Jill treats Tanya so badly, then.
If you look at how she treats Hillary, she’s actually not a wicked mother.
To be honest, if I were her, I might not have been able to even keep the child.”

“Me too… Come to think of it, I even scolded Jill for treating her daughter badly back then.
But if that’s the case, then her actions are indeed forgivable!”

“She has already done pretty well by giving birth to Tanya and giving her life! After that, she even raised her and didn’t kill her… Come to think of it, Tanya should really thank her.”

“I wasn’t understanding towards her previously.
They are both her daughters, so how could she treat them so differently? Whenever I visited the Joneses when I was young, she had never really treated Tanya well.
But now, I suddenly understand why she did that.”

Everyone passed comments one after another.

Jill wept even more miserably.
“Yes, I was really hesitant back then.
I didn’t want to give birth to her, but in the end, I still couldn’t bear to abandon a tiny little life, so I gave birth to her!”

She looked at Tanya, who had come out.
She cried and shouted, “Tanya, I know I was wrong.
All of this is my fault.
I misplaced my resentment towards your father on you.
Can you forgive me?”

As soon as she said that, everyone looked at Tanya.

“Ms.
Turner, why don’t you forgive her?”

“Yeah.
In a situation like this, if you still don’t forgive her, then you’ll be the one at fault!”

“She didn’t mean it…”

Lily’s car arrived at the gate at this point.
