The Heiress' Savage Comeback
Melinda was devastated, her heart shattered into pieces. "You ungrateful child! How could you say such things?" she screamed. "I'm not a joke. No, it's you who is the joke, not me. Not me!" Leon couldn't bear to see his mother in such a grotesque state any longer. He had once sincerely loved her, but he had been hurt the most, so he turned around and left without a word. As he walked away, Melinda's panic grew even stronger, and she desperately shouted after him, "Leon, don't leave. In the future, I will only love you, my child. Don't abandon me! Leon, what should I do if you give up on me, too?" Leon turned his head. "Don't you still have that powerful lover? If he truly loves you, let him save you. After all, you have done so much for him, and it's time for him to repay you." Melinda's expression changed. "Nonsense, I don't have any lover. Don't talk nonsense." She would rather go to jail than reveal that person. This time, Leon read her mind and chuckled self-deprecatingly. "See? You still love that man the most. What are we worth?" His father pretended to be a fool in love, but his mother was genuinely in love. "Don't call me, and don't look for me in the future. I'm disgusted." After saying this, he didn't stop and quickly walked away. Melinda watched his figure disappear, and her devastation intensified. Continuing to curse, she muttered, "Wicked child, ungrateful son, bastard…" Simone spoke up, "Stop cursing. Among the people here, no one can save you. Why don't you beg for help from the man you love the most? With his abilities, he should be able to save you." Despite what she said, Simone felt that based on Melinda's deep love for that person, she probably wouldn't betray him. Sure enough, Melinda glared fiercely at her. "Don't try to set a trap for me. I don't have any lover, and there is no one behind me." She looked at Simone with a sinister gaze and said, "It's a pity that that useless warlock didn't get rid of you." Simone smiled indifferently. "That's because you and your lover are incapable and had to hire a useless person to deal with me. It also allowed me to come and witness your humiliation today." The expression on Melinda's face turned fierce again. "Are you here to make fun of me?" Simone raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms. "What else?" Melinda was greatly provoked. "Ah, you little bitch…" She realized that her husband's love, which she had always been proud of, was fake, and she believed that her eldest son resented her. Her youngest son, whom she had control over, decisively abandoned her and left. The daughter she disliked the most was going to inherit the Foster Family, which she had long coveted. In just one day, not only did she lose her husband and three children, but she also lost her status as Mrs. Foster and became a laughingstock. She couldn't accept this situation to begin with, and now, she had to witness it herself, thanks to Simone, whom she despised the most. It drove her crazy, and she wanted to pounce on Simone and bite her, but she was held back by the people restraining her. "Stay calm." Seeing her like this, Simone smiled. "Your son said you're a joke, and he's right. Do you think that that man cares about you? Then, let's wait and see if he will save you. I'm certain he won't because you've always been just a pawn to him." She continued to provoke her, "Now that you're useless, he will discard you." Melinda shook her head frantically and barked wildly, "No, he won't. You're talking nonsense. He won't!" The man she loved would never give up on her. Seeing that it was almost enough, Simone nodded at Joseph, who then had the two men forcefully take Melinda away.Struggling incessantly, Melinda couldn't help but plead with Mr. Foster and Skyler, but both of them had the same cold and indifferent expression. There was no other choice, so she could only beg her least favorite daughter, Gwen, to save her. Gwen found it laughable that no matter when it was, she was always at the end of the line. She turned her body away, not wanting to see or be bothered. Seeing her biological mother in such a situation, she didn't feel relieved, but it didn't bother her much, and neither would she sympathize or show any mercy. All of this was caused by her mother, and yet she was still protecting that unknown man. Since her mother chose that wild man and abandoned everyone else, she had to bear the consequences. She had seen through it all since she was young and didn't care, lest she would be hurt like Leon. Melinda saw Gwen turn away, and all hope in her eyes shattered completely, so she let the people take her away without resistance. Still, she couldn't help but hurl various insults at Mr. Foster and Skyler as they dragged her outside, as if that would make her feel a little better. After she was taken away, Simone bid farewell to the three members of the Foster Family and returned to the special department. After everyone had left, Skyler said to Mr. Foster, "Mr. Foster, I will resign after I finish dealing with the matters at hand." Knowing that Skyler was also a victim, Mr. Foster didn't blame him. "Don't worry; I know that you are a good person." It's unfortunate that this child ended up with such biological parents. In his heart, Skyler wished that his biological father was Mr. Foster, but unfortunately, those two stood between them, and they were destined never to become father and son. He thought for a moment and said, "The online matter should also be dealt with. I will proactively post on Facebook, saying that I am a child born from my mother's affair with another man and not a blood relative of the Foster Family. I'll sever ties with the Foster Family and leave the family and the company." This way, it could also explain why his father didn't marry his mother back then, which would also allow the Foster Family to walk away from that muddy water, apart from trying to disgust and pressure the biological father who was hiding. Furthermore, he also wanted to repay the Foster Family for their nurturing and cultivation over the past twenty years in this way. Over the years, his biological mother never raised him, and he was raised by the Fosters. Mr. Foster was taken aback by Skyler's decision. He frowned and said, "You don't have to do this. I will handle the online matter and Melinda." Skyler's reputation would be significantly affected if he went through with it. After all, he had been raised by Mr. Foster and had always been by his side. Mr. Foster hoped that even if Skyler left the Foster Family, he would still have a successful future. However, Skyler shook his head. "No, I have already made up my mind. I also want to sever ties with them and leave the past behind. Only by doing this can I truly distance myself from the Foster Family. That person behind me won't be able to exploit me anymore and try to take advantage of your family fortune." Even if it meant risking his life, Skyler wouldn't allow that person behind him to use him to seize the Foster Family's fortune. Simone's defiance had empowered him, and he couldn't help but want to break free and directly confront and dismantle the cunning fox's scheme. He continued, "I have felt exhausted these past years. After resigning from the company, I want to travel and take a break. Don't worry about me, as the online public opinion will die down eventually. Once the matter is resolved and some time passes, not many people will remember or discuss it." He was truly mentally and physically drained. This time, Mr. Foster could see that Skyler was serious and determined. With unease in his heart, he reached out to hug him. "Alright, I respect your choice. Even if you leave the Foster Family, you can still come to me if you need anything. No matter what you think, I still consider you my son." Skyler's eyes turned red as he reached out and hugged his father, saying, "Dad, thank you!" Ever since he was young and took the initiative to approach his father for a collaboration, his father had been nurturing him over the years, teaching him many things, and occasionally showing concern for him. In his heart, there was always only one father. After Skyler finished speaking, he let go of his father, nodded at Gwen, and turned to leave. His father let out a sigh, and Gwen couldn't help but well up with tears.
