Chapter 5
At first, Mr. and Mrs. Byers didn’t know who to believe, but after looking at the photos, they immediately sided with Sienna without a second thought.
Their anger returned in full force.
“You actually dared to do such a disgusting thing and teamed up with someone to deceive me and your mother? How could you be so vile?”
“I even thought your father was too harsh just now, but looking back, he was too lenient. He should have beaten you to death!”
Caleb finally got a chance to speak.
“I told you, we didn’t give her much money after she came home, but look at how recklessly she spends it. Turns out, the money’s not clean!”
I sighed.
“I really don’t know how you run a business with brains like yours. A few photos and you’re completely fooled?”
“Let me show you proof of my real identity.”
I looked at the photos and began video calling each of the businessmen I supposedly had improper
relations with.
When they answered, they were all extremely respectful, addressing me as ‘President Wendy‘ right
away.
These businessmen were well–known in the city, some of whom Mr. and Mrs. Byers also knew. It
was about as real as it could get!
Mr. and Mrs. Byers finally believed me.
I could tell they were regretting their actions, but I didn’t give them the chance to speak.
I’left with Mr. Duke.
But as I reached the door, I paused and turned back.

That maid swapping us was actually a blessing. I can’t even imagine how annoying it would be if you two were my parents.”
“And by the way, this collaboration is totally off. Sienna, you can forget about reaching out to your Manager Franklin. When I get back, he’ll be fired.”
With that, I turned and left without looking back.
I hadn’t walked far when I heard another slap coming from the office.
I touched my swollen cheek.
At least, this time, it wasn’t me being slapped.
Because I refused to cooperate with the Bye
Sienna, came to my estate.

Caleb looked at the grand estate, seemingly realizing the meaning behind the look I gave them when
I returned home.
He muttered, “So, you weren’t jealous back then; you were just pretending not to despise us.”
I ignored him and coldly looked at the group.
“What do you want? I think we have nothing more to say to each other.”
Caleb gritted his teeth.
“Sister, stop being difficult. We’re family. What kind of family has grudges? Mom and Dad have missed you these past few days. Come back with us…”
He couldn’t bring himself to say the word “home.”
Of course, who would leave their golden nest to go to someone else’s doghouse?
Mr. Byers furrowed his brow, clearly displeased with Caleb’s incompetence.
He cleared his throat and said, “You are my daughter. Tough love, you know? I hit you because I love
you.”
I grew even more impatient.
“What are you really here for? If you’re here to confess your love, I’m not interested. You can leave
now.”

Mrs. Byers stood up abruptly.
Wendy, what are you making a scene for? Without me and your father, would there even be you? Now that you’re so wealthy, you should help your family.”
“You know the situation with the company. Hurry up and agree to the collaboration. If you don’t want to, at least inject a few billion into us!”
I couldn’t help but laugh at their shamelessness.
“With your audacity, you could succeed at anything. There’s no need to come begging to me. You just said it yourself–I’m Wendy Brooks, not a Byers!”
The three of them were speechless.
I had been back for over half a year, but the Byers family had been telling people I was a distant relative and had never officially recognized me.
They hadn’t even changed my name.
As I was about to have the butler escort them out, Sienna finally couldn’t hold back and knelt before
- me.
Sienna was crying uncontrollably, clutching at my pants leg and pleading desperately. “Sister, all the mistakes are mine. It’s my fault. I was so jealous because Mom and Dad love you so much.”
“You’re their biological daughter, and I’m just a fake heiress. I’ve been so malicious, and I know I’ll be kicked out of the Byers family sooner or later. But you, Sister, are the Byers‘ blood. No matter what you do, you’ll always be forgiven. I just wanted… I just wanted Mom and Dad to dislike you a little more and like me a little more.”
If it were before, seeing Sienna like this, Caleb and Mr. and Mrs. Byers would have been heartbroken.
But now, the three of them just coldly looked on.
