Nathan roared, his voice raw with anger and grief.


    "What? Son, Sophia cheated on you? The boy isn''t your son?" The old woman, who had just arrived, overheard him and staggered as if she might copse.


    Joanna and Sophia felt a headacheing on the moment they saw Mrs. Scott Sr.


    Why were they here?


    "Mom, we''ve all been yed by Sophia. Alexander isn''t my son at all."


    Nathan broke down, sobbing uncontrobly. He was sick with regret.


    He had already severed ties with his four sons.


    And as for Natalie, she would never acknowledge him as her father.


    Mrs. Scott Sr. trembled with rage and marched forward.


    *SLAP_*


    The sound of her hand connecting squarely with Sophia''s face echoed.


    Sophia shot the old woman a venomous re. "You old hag, you dare hit me?"


    "Sophia," the old woman screamed, tears streaming down her face, "have my son and I ever wronged you all these years? I was the one who took care of you after you gave birth! I never did that for Wendy, not for a single day! I gave you the best of everything! Why would you cheat on my son?"


    In a frenzy, Mrs. Scott Sr. grabbed Sophia''s hair and tried to force her to the ground.


    "Ah! You crazy old woman, let go of me! Let go!"


    Sophia hadn''t expected the old woman to snap like this.


    "You bitch cared for you so much, gave you everything, all in the hope that the grandson you gave me would make us proud and bring hortor to the Scott family! But you''ve ruined it all!"


    "How dare you do this to my son? For years, he treated you like a princess, giving you a mansion and luxury cars, letting you live without working a


    in your life. Inever, fasted that kind of luxury, yet you''ve lived like a queen since your


    twenties! And this is how you repay him? By bringing a bastard into our home? Sophia, how could you be as trashy as your mother?"


    "It runs in the e blood. Your mother was a homewrecker, you destroyed my son''s marriage, and now your daughter is doing the same, and now your daughter is trying to break up my granddaughter''s family. It runs for three generations. Your family must have some great legacy..."


    Mrs. Scott Sr. didn''t hold back, her voice rising in a venomous tirade.


    Joanna listened, stunned.


    She knew the old woman had a sharp tongue, but she had no idea she could be this vicious.


    Not far away, Wendy and Colin watched the scene with cold detachment.


    "Mom, it looks like that rotten family won''t have a moment of peace from now on," Colin remarked.


    This Mrs. Scott Sr. was a real troublemaker.


    They had once genuinely treated her as their grandmother, but she had never cared


    for them. In her eyes, they were just useless.


    Wendy sneered. "This isn''t enough. Sophia''s son lived off my money, used my money to start his ownpany-thirty million a year. I want everyst dor of that back."


    Wendy looked at her son. "Colin, you''re a grown man now. You don''t need to follow Joanna anymore. She''s been exposed, and Sebastian has abandoned her. Without him, she''s nothing."


    "She might be clever in small ways, but she''s not as smart as you. I need you to go abroad and ruin hispany. I want all their years of effort to go up in smoke."


    She wasn''t about to let that bastard who fathered him get off easy.


    After raising another man''s child for over twenty years, she deserved some form of repayment.


    "Mom, we..."


    Wendy cut him off. "Don''t ask questions you shouldn''t. You leave tomorrow. I''ll tell you what you need to do."
