?Chapter 903:
When Marissa started talking, the Sanchez family assumed she would stand up for the Nash family. Ruth was quick to voice her disapproval.
“Marissa, do you want to defend the Nash family?”
Rachel and Daryl disagreed as well but were too embarrassed to say anything.
Le supported Ruth’s point by saying, “Exactly, Marissa. You haven’t been in Blebert for long, so you don’t know how the Nash family has treated us before. They’ve bullied us badly and even insulted Aunt Caylee by iming she had brought bad luck to her husband. Marissa, even if you still care for the Nash family and don’t want them med, think of your mother. Aunt Caylee deserves to have her name cleared.”
“Exactly!” Ruth said.
“We are strong, and being bullied doesn’t usually affect us, but what your mother has endured breaks my heart. Even if we don’t seek justice for our family, we must seek justice for your mother. My daughter has suffered because of someone from their family, yet they have tormented us and tarnished my daughter’s reputation. I can’t live with the anger if we just forgive them.”

Marissa smiled sadly.
“I recognize the suffering of the Sanchez family and my mother, and I admit the Nash family has crossed the line many times. I won’t try to stop you. I just have some news to share.”
“What news?” Ruth inquired.
“I’ve found my father,” Marissa said.
“If all goes well, he’ll return to Blebert tomorrow. If you n to confront the Nash family, my father should be there too.”
“What did you say?” Ruth stood up, excited.
“Marissa, your father is still alive?”
The other members of the Sanchez family were equally shocked, staring at Marissa in disbelief.
“Yes, my father is still alive,” Marissa said. She paused to help Ruth sit down, then added sincerely, “My father now has a new identity. He is the famous owner of the Sunrise, Paul Alvarado.”
“Oh my God!” Le eximed, standing up excitedly.
“Marissa, are you saying your father is Paul Alvarado, the owner of the Sunrise, who deals with all the big shots?”
“Yes,” Marissa responded, nodding with a smile.
All the members of the Sanchez family were speechless with shock. Everyone had heard of Paul, but for a modest family like the Sanchez family, he was as unreachable as a star in the sky. They had never imagined he could be rted to them. After a lengthy pause, Le whispered, “Though I’ve never met your father, I’ve always heard he was a genius. It appears the rumors are urate. The owner of the Sunrise… He might just be the most significant person I’ll ever meet in my whole life.”
Shaun grew excited as well.
“I’ve traveled to many countries, and Mr. Alvarado’s name is well-known across the globe. In every ce I’ve visited, everyone recognizes his name. He is truly extraordinary!” Marissa smiled again. Although she had never used her father’s fame to get by, listening to othersmend her father filled her with pride.
Suddenly, Ruth, previously excited, turned serious.
“Marissa, what is your father thinking? He’s been alive and has be a prominent man. Why hasn’t hee back to your mother all these years?”
Her question hit everyone like a sobering blow. Daryl and Rachel looked at each other but remained silent.
Le, never one to hold back, bluntly asked, “Marissa, did your father leave Aunt Caylee because he discovered she had be partiallyatose? That might exin his absence, despite her suffering and the harassment from the Nash family.”
Shaun added, “If that’s true, then your father doesn’t deserve my respect!”
After a quiet moment, Rachel couldn’t resist asking, “Marissa, does your father have another family elsewhere? Is that why he hasn’t returned to see your mother?”
Upon hearing this, Daryl angrily stood up.
“If that’s the case, he has wronged your mother. I’ll risk my life to find your father and demand justice for your mother.”
For a moment, all members of the Sanchez family stared at Marissa with bloodshot eyes.
