With a serene smile, Kristy said, “This gentleman is my mother’s attorney.


    My stepmother has imed that I stole family funds, but in truth, it was the money bestowed by my mother.


    Coincidentally, the attorney arrived today.


    Here’s the will to prove it.


    Look closely and don’t be swayed by one-sided stories.


    ”


    Lindsey was ready for Kendra’s drama at the ceremony and had nned ordingly.


    At Lindsey’s cue, thewyer presented Juanita’s will.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    It listed one receiver to her estate.


    It was Lindsey.


    Lindsey exined, “The money from my mother funded mypany.


    My stepmother eyes my assets, twisting the truth.


    Instead of marrying the cheat she chose for me, I found a trustworthy partner.


    Yet, she’s turned that into scandal, aiming to tarnish my name and take away the money.


    Regarding the breaking off of the parent-child rtionship…”


    Lindsey’s gaze shifted to Benny, her eyes stripped of innocence and reliance, reced by disappointment and coldness.


    “My father feared my business would falter and affect him, so he suggested we cut ties first.


    He chose his new family over me.


    Tell me, who’s truly heartless?”


    Her voice was detached and firm, sending shivers through the crowd who hadn’t foreseen this turn of events.


    Benny, flustered, stammered, “I… I never said such things.


    ”


    Lindsey, with a dismissive wave, held her phone up to him.


    “I recorded your words yesterday.


    Should I y them for everyone to hear?”


    Yesterday, Benny used far too many words.


    If Lindsey had yed the recording of their conversation, Benny’s reputation would have beenpletely ruined.


    “Benny, don’t believe her.


    She didn’t record anything.


    It was just a bluff.


    ”


    Kendra fixed her gaze on Lindsey, her eyes widening in surprise.


    Little did she anticipate that Lindsey’swyer had joined the ceremony too.


    It appeared as though Lindsey had been one step ahead, well aware of her intentions, and had strategically positioned herself to counter her moves.


    However, Kendra couldn’t believe Lindsey had really recorded their conversation.


    “If you have it, y the recording.


    I don’t believe you have one.


    ”


    Kendra shouted.


    Lindsey smirked and pressed y on her phone, and suddenly, Benny’s voice filled the room…


    “That’s it!” Benny, turning sharply, pped Kendra across the face.


    He snapped, “You don’t think I’m embarrassing enough, do you?”


    “Benny…” Kendra, dizzy from the p, nearly toppled over.


    She clutched her face, tears streaming, and tried to speak but was silenced by Benny’s sharp look.


    Observing Kendra’s distress, Lindsey stopped the yback, sparing Benny further embarrassment.


    Benny’s reaction, however, seemed to confirm Lindsey’s earlier ims.


    The conversation took a new turn.


    “So, the stepmother is to me.


    She’s truly malicious, eager to destroy her stepdaughter.
