Paula settled into her chair and said, "I just want you both to relax a bit. From now on, we'll handle the company
matters behind the scenes. We can't let Queenie catch wind of anything."
Linda, brimming with confidence, replied, "Don't worry, I've got everything lined up. Queenie is going to be so
furious, she'll be beside herself."
Paula took a deep breath, her thoughts drifting to Diana.
She mused, "How did | get so blinded? How could | even think about cutting ties with my own daughter to coddle
the daughter of a mistress?" "It's my own stupidity that's leftspinning in Jeff's web."
As the food arrived, Elina nudged Paula, urging her to eat. "Con, don't dwell on it. We need to keep moving

Outside the courthouse, Jeff looked like a shell of his former self.
He swayed slightly, feeling as if he had aged a decade overnight.
He mused, "Is this really the end for me? Is my life over? No, there has to be another way."

"Dad, Paula's already divorced you. You need to marry Mom quickly and give her a proper title. | don't want to be
known as the illegitimate child or the daughter of a mistress. I'm the rightful heiress of the Marsh family, and |
need it to be official so | can marry Steven with peace of mind," Queenie insisted, her voice steady.
Jeff sighed, feeling cornered. "Queenie, I'm divorced from Paula, then about Mr. Edward Gellar..."
Queenie calculated her next plan carefully. "Dad, leave the rest to me. You're under the weather; focus on
resting. Also, send Grandma and Grandpa back to the countryside. | don't want them around. You know how
domineering Grandma is-l can't have her bullying Mom."
"Paula's willing to give Grandma a hefty allowance each month, but even with that, Grandma still made her life
miserable. Mom doesn't have the money to keep her in line, and even if they're family, money can create
conflict.”
"Those two old folks have outlived their usefulness; it's tfor them to go back to where they belong," Queenie
thought.
Jeff froze, suddenly recalling Paula's warning-Queenie wouldn't be as easy to manipulate.
A sharp pain shot through him. "Queenie, is this how it's going to be? You just got what you wanted, and now you

resources?"
"I've worked hard for my money; why should | support them? They're perfectly capable of taking care of
themselves. From now on, it's just our little family of four. If you want to take care of those other people, then
you can move out and live with them." Jeff hesitated; he knew they were on the brink of losing everything if he
did so.
He stared at his daughter's unyielding expression, feeling a sense of regret wash over him.
Jeff thought, "Should | have trusted Queenie and abandoned the Barnes family? Paula's father has connections.
What if he suddenly turns things around?"
"Queenie, are you planning to cutloose once you've usedup?" Jeff's voice trembled. He had weathered
many storms in his life, and he knew his daughter well-she had always been self-serving, using every trick in the
book to undermine Diana. Queenie chuckled, her eyes glinting with a chilling resolve. "Dad, why would you think
that?"
