She never would’ve imagined this–Nancy didn’t scold Lily at all. Instead, she pped Wendy, the one <i>who </i>had stood up for her!
Wendy was stunned.
She had thought she and Nancy, old ssmates, had grown closer over the years. She believed that after today, they’d only grow even tighter.
But to her shock, Nancy had hit her!
So stunned she could barely speak, Wendy’s voice trembled, disbelief written all over her face.
“Nancy… did you hit the wrong person?”
Even now, she couldn’t believe Nancy would actually raise a hand against her.
Nancy let out a coldugh. Her face, still young and breathtakingly beautiful, was as icy as frost.
“Wendy, don’t doubt it. I hit exactly who I meant to hit. You had no problem hitting Lily–why shouldn’t I be able to hit you?”
“Ha! The bracelets Lily was wearing were fake…”
Nancy’s gaze turned even colder, the sarcasm in her eyes cutting like a de.
“Who would’ve thought the Luke family gave our daughter–inw a pair of counterfeit bangles as a wee gift?”
Then her sharp eyes shifted to Elsa. “And who would’ve thought that my daughter–<i>in</i>w couldn’t afford a single dress?”
<i>Daughter</i><i>–</i><i>in</i><i>–</i><iw</i>?
The entire room gasped.
Diana’s face turned the color of blended spinach juice.
She’d thought that by siding with Wendy today and helping twist the narrative, she’d get closer to Elsa and score a few perks.
After all, Lily was just some ything Mr. John had thrown out like garbage. What was the harm in stepping on her a few more times?
She had calcted every angle–but she never calcted this.
Lily was the daughter–inw of the Luke family!
Elsa was adored by two powerful and stunning men, but even that couldn’tpare to the status of being the daughter–inw of the generationally wealthy Luke family!
After the shock wore off, one single thought echoed in Diana’s mind:

It’s over.
She waspletely screwed.
Wendy’s expression was as if she’d just eaten something foul.
Lily was supposed to be the unwanted adopted daughter tossed aside by the Ginger family–a lowly. creature always trying topete with her precious daughter.
She had dreamed of seeing Lily humiliated, ruined, and never able to rise again.
But now Lily had quietly married into the powerful Luke family?
Even Elsa’s usual pride cracked under the pressure.
She suddenly remembered hearing a rumor not long ago that the Luke family was nning a wedding for James.
It all clicked–Lily had married James, the eldest of the Luke family.
If James were still in aa, then even marrying into the wealthiest family would’ve made Elsa scoff, sneering that Lily was stuck for life with a man who couldn’t even move.
But James had woken up just days ago.
After reuniting with Simon, she’d even been invited to the Luke estate for dinner.
Back then, James hadn’t been in aa yet. Though he didn’t dine with them, she had exchanged a few words with him.
Even when she was still madly in love with John–who was plenty excellent–James had left her absolutely breathless.
His looks were divine, and every move he made radiated elegance and nobility. It was impossible not to <i>be </i>drawn in.
Lily was nothing more than a disgusting lowlife thief. She should’ve stayed trapped in a filthy ditch for <i>the </i>rest of her miserable life. How could someone like that ever deserve the brilliant James, heir to the Luke family?
She couldn’t ept it!
Lily looked slightly embarrassed.
She hadn’t expected Nancy to announce publicly that she was the Luke family’s daughter–inw.
She’d promised James she wouldn’t go around broadcasting their rtionship….
But Nancy didn’t actually say which son she had married, right? So this didn’t really count as exposing their rtionship… right?
Elsa was still reeling from her fury, shock, and disbelief when Nancy’s cold voice rang out again.

something she can’t afford to buy? Wendy, in my territory, you tried to frame my daughter–inw–are you just in evil, or have you gonepletely senile?”
“…”
Wendy’s face was ghost–white as she stumbled backward.
She never imagined that despite being old ssmates with Nancy, with a long–standing friendship, Nancy would give her not even a shred of respect in front of everyone.
The wealthydies in the store weren’t fools.
After Nancy’s words, what was there left to question?
The Luke family was notoriously protective. The daughter–inw of the Luke family was someone priceless. Why would she need to pretend to be poor in a store owned by her own family?
Earlier, not knowing Lily’s identity, they’d let Wendy lead their assumptions, thinking this young woman was both vain and bitter–wearing fake jewelry, vandalizing a dress she couldn’t afford…
Now that it was confirmed Lily was the Luke family’s daughter–inw, Wendy’s lies copsed without <i>a </i>fight.
And these women had sharp eyes too. They recognized those two deep green marble bangles–Grace and Nancy always wore them.
How could they possibly be fake?
Wendy must have gonepletely broke and lost her mind!
“Just now Wendy and Diana were saying Lily cut up the dress, and I believed it. But now… it looks like Wendy was setting her up from the start.”
“Obviously! Why would the young madam of the Luke family destroy her own merchandise?”
