Chapter 172 They Are No Twins
“It turns out that Mrs. Lidell Senior was hospitalized because of Nancy!”
“It wasn’t the Lidell family’s fault that Nancy was lost when she was young, right? She’s so vicious!”
“Yeah! Did Ms. Hawthorne really get deceived by Nancy?”
The guests didn’t believe that someone from a normal background like Nancy could know someone like Yelena, a top-tier lady.
Those who liked to gossip-especially those envious of Nancy-eagerly awaited Yelena’s reaction.
Andrew was getting angry. “Raine is so ignorant!”
Even if Nancy had deceived Yelena, the fact that she could befriend someone like Yelena was something worth celebrating.
Regina’s expression was complicated, but Fergus sneered. “Dad, I think Raine did the right thing. If she didn’t expose Nancy’s true colors, what if Yelena blames the Lidell family after finding out the truth one day? With Raine being so bold right now, there’s a chance Yelena might even admire her
for it.”
Andrew fell silent, his murky eyes narrowing at them.
Suddenly, Yelena began clapping. “What a wonderful story.”
“Ms. Hawthorne, I couldn’t bear to see you being deceived, so I had to tell you the truth,” Raine said,
her face full of sincerity.
“Very interesting.” Yelena glanced at Raine. “So, is this how you usually slander Nancy behind her back?”
“I’m not slandering her. It’s the truth. Our family knows all about it.” Raine looked back at the other
Lidells.
Wendy and the others were following closely behind. At that moment, Wendy nodded hurriedly. ” Yes, Ms. Hawthorne. I’m Nancy’s cousin. What Raine said is all true.”
Irene looked like she was about to say something with a worried expression, but was sharply pinched by Wendy.
Fergus spoke up quickly. “I’m Nancy’s brother. What Raine says is true! Nancy’s been holding a grudge against us. Ms. Hawthorne, please don’t be deceived by her!”
“Do you have anything to say, Mrs. Lidell?” Yelena turned to Regina.
For some reason, Regina felt a rush of guilt and unease under Yelena’s gaze. She looked at the teary-
eyed Raine and then at Nancy, who stood coldly to the side.
Regina took a deep breath and slowly said, “Ms. Hawthorne, it’s true.”
Yelena’s eyes began to fill with flames of anger. Hillary, too, was furious. She had always known the Lidell family was cold, but she didn’t expect them to be this malicious!
“Abandoning your biological child for an adopted daughter? You’re truly pathetic!” Yelena’s voice
was cold as ice.
Adopted daughter?
Raine immediately said, “Ms. Hawthorne, you’ve been deceived by Nancy!”
“Deceived? I’ve known Nancy since we were children. How could I not know her?” Yelena’s gaze swept over them like a flash of cold light.
“The Lidell family disgusts me. The Hawthorne family will never work with people like you.”
The Lidells’ faces changed dramatically.
“Ms. Hawthorne, you’ve been completely misled!” Raine looked at Nancy with tears in her eyes. Nancy, you’ve already hurt Grandma. Do you mean to ruin the company, too? Liddell Group is everything to our family. Are you really willing to tear it all down just to please yourself?”
“They were first said to be twins, now one’s suddenly the adopted daughter, and the other’s the biological one?”
“Is Raine the adopted daughter?”
Raine’s heart raced with panic. She did not want her identity exposed!
