"She keeps badmouthing me and is a cunning person. I don't like her at all. You promised you'd always love me the most, so why are you choosing a morally corrupt maid over me?" Susan's voice whined from upstairs.Thomas didn't respond right away. Susan continued, "You should kick that woman out and blacklist her from our family, so she can never come near us again!"It was clear Thomas was reluctant. "We'll discuss this later. Give Amber a chance to prove herself. And don't bring this up again." His tone turned serious.After that, silence fell from upstairs.At this moment, I was infuriated.Susan was clearly a two-faced bitch. Here I was, worrying about what would happen if the truth came out and she went to jail. Yet, she was trying to kick me out of the house. How could I have been so blind to trust her?In a fit of anger, I threw the rag onto the table.I had enough. I was ready to expose everything.Just then, my father's bodyguard walked over.Noticing his approach,
I slapped myself and cried out again, "Dad!"At that moment, my father was shirtless, a blanket barely covering his lower body. Hearing my words, he panicked, hurriedly wrapping a towel around himself."What's going on?" he asked, frantically covering every inch of exposed skin.Kneeling, I bowed my head low. "Dad! I'm your real daughter!"The shock of the truth nearly made my father faint. He started hitting his head, muttering to himself, "I almost did something terrible! I may be a pervert, but I'm not a monster!"That night, my father bombarded me with questions about my mother.I answered every one of them in detail, even providing more information than he asked for. To be sure, his personal doctor was called in to conduct a paternity test.The results threw the entire household into chaos.Susan, who had been sleeping soundly, was yanked out of bed by my father's men.When my father saw her, his face contorted with disgust."Who are you?"Still groggy, Susan looked at
"I'll return the car and house to you, just don't send me to jail!"Soon, her words faded away.I sat on the sofa, too afraid to move, worrying that my father might take out his anger on me for my part in hiding the truth.Just then, my father came over, sitting beside me. He gently patted my back. "I'm sorry, my darling. I'm sorry you had to go through this."I shook my head and said, "It's nothing." After all, I had only just acknowledged him as my father—we had no emotional bond yet. Still, I couldn't let Susan take my place, regardless of how new our relationship was."Where will she go?" I asked, pointing in the direction Susan had been dragged away."I'll lock her up for now. Tomorrow, I'll decide what to do with her."Even as we talked, my mind was spinning, wondering if my father would really send Susan to jail.However, things took a turn when I woke up the next day.I was jolted awake by a loud commotion downstairs. I quickly dressed and rushed down to see what was
It turned out Rick and Susan were in this together all along. No wonder she hooked up with him so quickly."Rick, I don't care if you don't plan to acknowledge me, but at least be smart about who you're dating," I said, keeping my tone light and natural. There wasn't a trace of anger in my voice, which only made Susan bite her lip in frustration.Thomas overheard the insult to his first love, and without hesitation, he kicked Rick once more before throwing both of them out."I don't have a son like you!" he spat angrily.In the world of the wealthy, punishment rarely stopped at something so simple. That same day, Thomas froze Rick's accounts and took back every penny. He even threatened to send Susan to prison. Terrified, she returned the luxury cars and house she had just received.Susan thought she had secured herself a comfortable life by clinging to Rick, but little did she know that the very night his accounts were frozen, they didn't even have enough money to check int
After Thomas spoke, it was as if Rick's soul had been drained from him."Go ahead, marry her. Keep your worthless life for the woman who loves you. I won't stand in your way anymore."With that, Thomas seemed to have made peace with the situation. I stood there, completely stunned. I couldn't even begin to imagine how many illegitimate daughters Thomas might have out there.The moment Rick saw Thomas nod, he bolted out of the room, grinning from ear to ear."Susan! Susan, my father agreed!" he shouted so loudly that the entire villa could hear him. Just like that, my former best friend was about to become my sister-in-law.It didn't take long before Rick's frozen bank accounts were unfrozen, and Susan wasted no time flaunting her newfound fortune on social media.'My husband bought me another new car today.''I told him I didn't need it, but he insisted on giving me a villa. Ugh, he's so annoying!'As if showing off online wasn't enough, she took advantage of Thomas being at
'I can take it, but when it comes to my mother, no way am I putting up with that,' I fumed inwardly. 'If I can't handle him, surely Dad can, right?'Remembering how Susan always got her way, I decided to borrow her tactics. I burst into tears and ran straight to Thomas."Dad! Rick said Mom was just some woman you fooled around with, and that you didn't even want me. He's so mean! He hates me!"Yeah, I definitely pulled a move straight out of the Drama Queen playbook, but it worked.Thomas' usual warm smile disappeared, his face turning dark in an instant. He stormed over and slapped Rick hard across the face."Don't push me to kick you out on this pleasant day!" he roared.Susan muttered something under her breath. She was displeased as she stood behind Rick."She's just putting on an act—" she retorted, but her words were cut off."Did I say you could speak?"Thomas barked, silencing her. "If you don't want to be here, then leave! And if I catch either of you picking on Amber
I kept a close watch on both of their social media updates. Susan continued posting about their sweet, romantic life, as if nothing was amiss.It seemed Rick had managed to scrape together a massive sum of money in just three days for her. But why did she need such a huge amount of cash?Curiosity got the better of me, so I discreetly arranged for someone to follow Susan.The evidence was beyond comprehension. I was distraught to learn that in a mere span of two weeks, Susan had frequented the casinos on fourteen occasions.The money Rick had gathered for her, supposedly for an investment, had gone straight into gambling!I didn’t even want to imagine how high the stakes were. Things were definitely about to get interesting.Just as I was wondering how Rick had come up with such a large amount so quickly, word spread that he had defaulted on a loan.Thomas didn't even lift an eyebrow at first."How much did he borrow?" he asked.The debt collector held up a single finger."A
"What makes you think you'll win any money at a casino?"As soon as Thomas spoke, Susan's expression froze for a brief moment.Still, she quickly tried to recover and act casual. "Oh, Dad, what are you talking about? Investments are always a gamble. You win some, you lose some. "Are you comparing the investment Rick and I made to gambling? It's just like speculating in stocks. There are gains and losses!"Rick sighed heavily, covering his face with his hands and shaking his head."Rick, why are you sighing? Don't tell me even you don't believe I can make money?"Rick looked at her, disappointment clear in his eyes. "You've racked up fifty billion in debt. How do you expect me to believe in you now?"As soon as the words left his mouth, Susan's confident facade began to crack. She tried to stand, wanting to leave, but the bodyguards held her back."What's going on here?" she demanded, still attempting to feign ignorance.I calmly pulled out a stack of documents from my side an
Rick's world shattered in an instant. Everything he had done for Susan was built on lies. "You told me you didn't have parents!" His voice cracked, heavy with disbelief.Another man stepped forward, pointing at Rick. "What the hell are you talking about? If she doesn't have parents, then who am I? I'm Susan's father! Watch your mouth, kid!"Susan looked as pale as a ghost as she stared at her towering husband. Fear flickered in her eyes."When we get home, I'll break your legs!" the man snarled. "That'll teach you to sneak around with other men!"His threat sent a shiver down Susan's spine, and her body shook uncontrollably. He grabbed her by the arm, pulling her up with a rough jerk. This time, the bodyguards didn't intervene.In a desperate panic, Susan clung to one of them. "Please, help me! Don't let them take me! You can't let this happen!"She turned to Rick, her voice full of desperation as she pleaded, "Rick! Please, help me!"Alas, Rick's heart was numb. He had seen
