?Chapter 98:


    Ever since Marissa discovered she was Brian’s daughter, she felt a connection to the Nash family in Blebert, despite their coldness toward her. Although the Nash family was known for their contributions to medicine, the true acim belonged to Marissa’s father. She was determined not to let his legacy be tarnished on her watch. Therefore, Marissa only caused the downfall of Sansa and her daughter today, while the Nash family not only avoided disgrace but actually gained more prominence


    Yet, Marissa hadn’t nned on rejoining the Nash family so soon. The family memberscked a genuine interest in medicine and were primarily motivated by greed. They were not inclined to put in the work themselves but hoped to reap the benefits of others’ sesses. It was precisely this collectiveziness that had allowed Sansa and A to stir up trouble, threatening the family’s stability. Marissa feltpelled to intervene, teach them a lesson, and then distance herself for a period. Unexpectedly, Balthasar informed her that Tiffany had a twin sister. Shocked by this revtion, Marissa feltpelled to return. The Sanchez family had imed Caylee had only one child, yet the Nash family knew of Tiffany’s twin. What was the truth?


    Marissa sped back to the Nash family’s residence on her motorcycle. She entered the vi quietly, not wanting to disturb anyone. Before walking into the living room, she overheard heated discussions. Peering in, she saw almost all the Nash family members gathered. Balthasar upied the most prestigious seat, clutching his crutch, his expression stern. Sergio, the new family head, and his wife Hannah were seated to Balthasar’s left. Landen, who had brought the family acim that day, was on his right


    It was evident that these three had ascended significantly in status. Previously, Sergio and Hannah had been relegated to positions behind their peers, their opinions overlooked and disregarded. Once regarded as much of a failure as Tiffany, Landen typically sat in a corner, unable to voice his thoughts without being reprimanded for the smallest errors. Now, they sat beside Balthasar, elevated above the other family members


    If Sansa had experienced such a rise in status, she would have be arrogant and overbearing. However, Sergio and Hannah stayed calm and friendly despite their newfound prestige. Transformed from a perceived failure to a celebrated figure, Landen seemed unchanged. He lounged casually on the sofa, paying little attention to the ongoing conversation. In the past, he would have faced criticism during the meeting, but today, he was regarded with anticipation and respect


    Observing these changes from behind the door, Marissa couldn’t help but be amused. The debate in the living room was intense. “A, that wicked girl! She fooled us for so long and nearly ruined our family’s good name. We cannot let her off easily.”


    “And Sansa, as the hostess of the family, is selfish. She favors her daughter and mistreats her niece. She should be divorced and expelled from the family!”


    Upon hearing this, everyone turned to the former family head, Rex. “Rex, say something!”


    Seated next to Sergio, Rex appeared uninterested. When called upon, he merely shifted in his seat and remained silent. “Look at you! You’re such a coward!” Balthasar grabbed his crutch and tapped him sharply. Then he scolded, clearly frustrated, “Sansa has pushed you around for years. Now, when you need to decide, you stay quiet. I was so stupid to give you power!”


    “Ha-ha…” Landen suddenly chuckled softly. “Grandpa, don’t get worked up. It’s not just you. Everyone in our family was stupid before.”
