Revenge of the Secret Heiress Chapter 9
My lawyer stood up calmly, presenting a document."Your Honor, here's the evidence showing that Miss Carter transferred all her assets to her parents before the marriage and hasn't participated in Shalton Group's operations during the marriage."As for the plaintiff's claim that Miss Carter lived extravagantly during the marriage, that's completely unfounded. According to our investigation, Miss Carter lived frugally, and all her expenses came from her personal savings before the marriage."It was Mister Thomas Roberts who, during the marriage, misused Miss Carter's savings for investment without her consent, resulting in significant financial losses. Should Miss Carter be held responsible for that money as well?"That was true. Thomas had tricked me into helping him with investments, but he had used the money to buy a luxury car for Claire.My lawyer's words left Thomas and his family speechless."You're lying!" Thomas's face turned red. "She gave me that money willingly!"Will

"Come, Serena, drink it while it's hot. I made it especially for you." My mother-in-law, Margaret, placed a steaming bowl of chicken soup in front of me.My mother-in-law and sister-in-law had never liked me. Their sudden kindness made me feel uneasy."I'm not hungry, Mom," I replied.Smack!My sister-in-law, Emily Roberts, threw the TV remote at my face."What's wrong with you? My mom spent all this time making you this soup, and you won't drink it? Watch yourself, or I'll tell my brother!""Exactly! Serena, I'm just trying to be kind!" Margaret said, but there was a strange glint in her eyes that I could not ignore.Before I could respond, Emily grabbed my hair with one hand and shoved the bowl of soup toward my mouth with the other."What are you doing? Let go of me!" I yelled, barely controlling my anger, trying to push her hand away.Margaret used her calloused fingers to force my mouth open, and the bitter smell of herbs hit my nose, making me gag."What's the matter?

I clutched my stomach in agony, feeling sharp waves of pain rippling through me, but the pain in my heart was far worse.I had given up a life of comfort for Thomas, hidden my true identity, and served his family like an unpaid maid. Yet, in the end, that was the humiliation and harm I received in return!What had my baby done wrong?I held my stomach tightly, but they attacked me like rabid dogs, kicking me in the back.The pain in my face and body surged with every brutal strike."Trash! Why are you pretending? You have the nerve to lie to us about being pregnant?" Emily sat on top of me, slapping my face while screaming vicious insults. "Why don't you just die?"My vision blurred, and I felt the searing pain pushing me to the brink of unconsciousness.Suddenly, there was a loud commotion outside the door, followed by the sound of it being kicked open. I thought I was saved.However, I was wrong. It was just another nightmare.Claire entered, dressed in white, her face strea

The sharp smell of disinfectant filled my nose as I struggled to open my heavy eyelids. The first thing I saw was the cold, white walls of the hospital room.A needle was in the back of my hand, and a dull pain radiated from my lower abdomen, reminding me that my baby was gone."My baby is gone..." I muttered hoarsely, my voice sounding like sandpaper scraping against the glass.A young nurse walked in and, seeing that I was awake, gave me a professional smile, though her tone was cold. "Miss Carter, you're awake. We couldn't save the baby. I'm sorry for your loss."I did not respond and just nodded numbly while tears streamed uncontrollably down my face."Get some rest, and call me if you need anything," the nurse said before leaving the room.I closed my eyes, trying to sleep, but familiar voices drifted in from the hallway."Mom, what happened?" It was Thomas' voice."Hmph! How were we supposed to know she was pregnant? It could've been anyone's child! It was her fault for n

Margaret and Emily, who had been eavesdropping at the door, burst into the room joyfully when they heard that."So, you've finally come to your senses! You and Thomas were never a good match to begin with!""Exactly! Someone like you should consider it a blessing to have lived with the Roberts family for five years!" Emily chimed in."Know your place! You're not even worthy of carrying Claire's shoes!" she sneered.When I mentioned divorce, Thomas stopped in his tracks. He turned around, standing against the light, his expression hidden, but his entire demeanor radiated coldness."Serena Carter, have you lost your mind? Hm?" His voice was chilling.I smiled bitterly. How ironic. I had asked for a divorce to free him and Claire, yet he had hesitated.On the other hand, Claire finally seemed to grasp that I was Thomas' wife. However, there was no turning back for her, so she clung to him, holding his hand tightly."Thomas, I don't mind if you get a divorce..." she whispered.I p

The lawyer my mom hired arrived quickly, dressed in a sleek black business suit and towering heels, exuding an imposing presence.I recognized her. She was a famous top-tier lawyer in Ashton City, known for handling high-profile inheritance and divorce cases. People usually had to book her services a year in advance.However, my mom had overreacted. I did not need a cent from the Roberts family in our divorce, so there was no need to bring such a renowned lawyer. My mom was likely venting her anger on my behalf.As expected, Margaret's arrogance shrank the moment she saw the lawyer. She asked timidly, "What…what's going on?"The lawyer ignored her, pulling a document from her briefcase and slapping it on the bedside table. "Divorce agreement. Have a look."Without hesitation, I picked up the pen and signed my name. At that point, what was there to hesitate over?Thomas, however, looked like he had been struck by lightning, staring at me in disbelief. "Are you divorcing me?"I sc

When my mom saw the defeated look on Thomas's face, she was in a great mood. She gently patted the back of my hand and said softly, "Serena, don't be afraid. With your parents here, no one can bully you!"Margaret, hearing that, jumped up aggressively. She pointed at my mom and shouted, "Oh, wow! Anyone would think your family is some royalty! Let me remind you—my son, Thomas, is the Vice President of Shalton Group!"My dad looked at her coldly, his gaze full of mockery. "Is that so? Let's see how high your son can fly without the Shalton Group to support him!"Thomas froze briefly, stubbornly asking, "What...what do you mean?"Ignoring him, my dad turned to his assistant and said, "Send word to the Shalton Group. We're no longer interested in accommodating Thomas Roberts."The assistant nodded. "Yes, Mister Carter."Less than a minute later, Thomas's phone dinged with a notification. His face paled as he read it.It was a personnel notice from Shalton Group, announcing that, ef

I returned to the Carter family home. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw my mom sitting on the couch, scrolling through her phone and laughing so hard she was almost doubled over."Mom, what are you looking at that's making you so happy?" I asked with a smile as I poured myself a cup of tea."What else? I'm watching your dear husband and his beloved mistress!"My mom chuckled and handed me her phone. "Just look at these comments, it's so satisfying!"I took the phone from her. The screen displayed Claire's social media comment section, which had turned into a massive unfollowing frenzy.[So she was the third party all along? How could she!][What a joke! Ruining someone else's marriage while pretending to be innocent? Get out of the entertainment industry!][With that fake act, how does she even have fans? Are they all blind?][Boycott immoral celebrities! Claire, leave the industry!]I casually scrolled through, and nearly all the comments were attacking Claire. My mom's tact

A few months passed uneventfully, and just when I was about to forget that crazy family existed, they reappeared in my life in a ridiculous way.On Valentine's Day, a notification popped up on my phone.[Former popular star, Claire, spotted fighting with her boyfriend on the street; relationship rumored to be breaking.]Curious, I clicked on it.In the video, Claire looked heavily pregnant, her hair was messy, and she was screaming at Thomas. "Thomas! Are you even a man? A stupid crystal ball for Valentine's? You were never like this when you were with Serena! I must've been blind to have fallen for you!"You're just a useless man! Trash!"Thomas did not hold back, either. He looked disheveled and unshaven, with messy hair and scratches on his face. He no longer had the demeanor of a company vice president, looking more like a street thug."And you've got the nerve to say that? What about you? No income for months, and I'm the one supporting you! You're just spending my money, a
