Maureen was now demanding that Noelle and Adrian return all enterprises of the Ramirez.
When Noelle married Juan, she wasn’t favored by Joshua, so they signed a prenuptial agreement: all Ramirez income belonged solely to Juan, unrelated to Noelle.
Therefore, the will leaving everything to Maureen was valid.
“That wretched girl dares to sue me!”
Elizabeth snorted coldly: “Mom, handle this properly, or it’ll affect Dad’s company too.”
Elizabeth knew Anthony Thompson had succeeded thanks to Noelle, which was why she showed her surface–level respect.
Deep down, she despised Noelle and refused to acknowledge her as her birth mother.
“I know, I’ll settle this.”
If Maureen won the lawsuit, how could she remain Mrs. Thompson?
On the nearby sofa, Adrian sat lounging, legs crossed, silently eating candy while listening.
He never expected his weak–willed sister would actually dare to sue their mother.
Seemed Maureen had truly changed – his dream of rebuilding the Ramirez looked promising.
“Mom, I’m heading out.”

Adrian announced before stepping out to call Maureen.
The call connected, and he praised, “Sis, let’s team up. I’ll help you win the lawsuit. Once you get the money back, make me CEO.”
Maureen couldn’t believe he was still daydreaming at a time like this.
“Wasn’t I clear enough last time?
You’re not fit to run the Ramirez. If you need a job, I can offer you a janitor position.”
Maureen’s icy voice pierced Adrian’s ears through the phone, sharp as broken glass.

If not for Sean, he’d have slapped her senseless.
“You, a woman. actually think you can run the Ramirez? Have you no shame?”
Maureen hung up.
Adrian redialed, but the new number wouldn’t connect–she’d blocked him again.
“Damn you!
Just you wait!”

After blocking him, Maureen was about to rest when her phone rang once more.
Puzzled, she checked the screen–her investigator.
“Ms. Ramirez, we have results. Elizabeth and Noelle are biological mother and daughter. Sending the maternity test now.
Maureen clutched her phone, knuckles whitening.
Though she’d suspected it, hearing confirmation still sent chills down her spine.
Noelle had long betrayed her father and had a child with another man.
All those times she claimed pregnancy ruined her figure–complete lies!
Maureen never imagined someone could act so convincingly, probably even fooling herself.
After hanging up, she stared blankly at the paternity test report for ages.
She only snapped back to reality when Lawyer Thomas called much later.
“How did it go with Lawyer Thomas?”
“The cease–and–desist letter’s sent. Noelle won’t sleep easy these days.”
Thomas replied.
“Appreciate your help.”
Maureen wanted precisely that–to rob Noelle of sleep.
Within minutes, Noelle’s calls flooded in. Maureen muted her phone, ignoring every ring.

Chapter326
She needed to process Noelle being Elizabeth’s mother.
Geoffrey had left for work, leaving only Maureen and Zoe at home.
Noticing Maureen hadn’t left her room, Zoe knocked and entered.
“Reenie, what’s wrong?”

Maureen held nothing back: “Noelle has another biological daughter–Elizabeth–over a year older than me.”
Nanny Zoe heard this but said nothing, simply holding Maureen and gently patting her back.
Maureen swallowed her bitterness. “So she was deceiving Dad and me all along.”
She used to feel guilty, believing her birth had forced her mother to abandon her career.
Her father often said, “Your mother was beautiful and gentle on stage when she was young–every man dreamed of marrying her. I held her back.”
He died believing he’d wronged Noelle.
Yet this woman might have betrayed him from the start.
Zoe never imagined Noelle could be like this. Guess karma isn’t real after all.
“Reenie, someone like that isn’t worth our tears.”
“Mm.”
Maureen nodded. “I just can’t believe she’s my
birth mother.”
Long ago, she’d gotten a DNA test confirming Noelle was her mother.
But why show such favoritism? Why be so cruel to her own daughter?
Some questions might never have answers.
Maureen ordered deeper investigations into Noelle’s past. Everything belonging to the Yin family- she’d take it all back.
