CHAPTER 696 IDENTITY EXPOSED

No sooner had Maisy made this announcement than a deafening roar rang out across the room.

The guests have raised their glasses to Marie.

"Marie, from now on you will be the only daughter of the Henderson’s and the only heir!"

"I'm so jealous, please help us in the future!"

......

Seeing this scene, Leo and Lydia, who were mixed in the crowd, had a subtle change of expression on

their faces.

There was even a flash of gloom in Leo's eyes.

His worst fears had come true. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

If Marie was the only princess of the Henderson family, what about Lydia?

After Marie returned to Valenham, Leo had a premonition that the two sisters would drift apart in the

future, and now, indeed, they were heading in that direction.

Leo looked at Lydia, as if he wanted to say something, but Lydia was barely smiling.

"It's fine, I won't be living in Valenham in the future, it doesn't matter if I have the status of a princess or

not."

So, Leo sighed inwardly.

Leo is clear that she still cares about this.

Maisy did not realise that Leo and Lydia were present, and the smile on her face was sweet.

Wasn't this the moment she had been waiting for when she married into the Henderson family twenty

years ago?

She has been Karl's wife for more than 20 years, and has always been a dedicated and quiet wife, and

what was that for

Her daughter Marie!

Marie is her and Karl's daughter, and only when she is firmly established in the Henderson family can

she be honoured and prosperous for the rest of her life.

After all, when her daughter was in power, she was, naturally, treated well.

But there has always been a trouble getting closer to that goal.

That's Lydia.

Who is Lydia?

The daughter of Karl and his first wife, Aurora, the most beautiful woman in Valenham.

But in Maisy's eyes, Lydia is the biggest hidden threat to her daughter!

She had been trying to find a way to drive Lydia out of the family, but not anymore.

Karl delegated power to her and now she is the head mother of the Henderson family.

Although she didn't know what Karl was doing, Maisy was happy to have the power delegated to her.

However, with these alone, Maisy did not dare to abolish Lydia's status and establish Marie as the

rightful one.

Most of all, having become the head mother of the Henderson family, she also had the right to look at

some of the genealogy books.

She had discovered a major secret, one that would be enough to bring Lydia to ruin!

That's why she was so bold as to declare Marie as the rightful one!

All the guests in the room were congratulating her but Marie, who was being congratulated, was

frowning.

"Mom, what about my sister ...... did you forget about her ......"

"Shut the fuck up!"

Maisy's face changed slightly as he shouted angrily.

The guests were all looking at Maisy with astonishment.

Only then did Maisy reveal a smile and said, "Marie has just entered society and doesn't know

anything, sorry about that."

After a pause, she turned around and gave Marie a fierce glare: "From now on, you are Henderson’s

only princess, the princess must behave like a princess, starting tomorrow, all your time in a day must

be spent on studying, whether it is economics, or investment, or risk analysis, there will be

professionals to teach you ---- Remember, you are my and Karl's daughter, absolutely cannot be

compared to that woman Lydia, understand?"

At these words, Leo and Lydia's faces changed even slightly.

Marie's expression was unpleasant.

She had thought that she would have no freedom when she returned to Valenham, but she didn't think

it would be so stressful, learning so much at once.

Add to that her naturally fun-loving, carefree nature, and what difference does it make to killing her?

"Mom, I don't want ......"

Marie did her best to fight for her freedom, yet she was interrupted by Maisy.

"No, you don't have the right to refuse, you're not a child anymore, you're the general manager of a

business under the name of the Henderson royal family, how can you do nothing?"

Maisy shouted a loud rebuke, not caring that so many people were present.

So Marie stopped talking, with tears in her eyes.

Suddenly she didn't want to be a daughter of the Henderson’s.

"That's enough! I disagree!"

Suddenly, the sound of a woman's huffy voice rang out from the scene.

There was silence as the guests turned back to look at the person who had made the noise with

astonishment.

Even Maisy's face was full of surprise as her eyes passed through the heavy crowd and fixed on

Lydia's face.

The moment the four eyes met, Maisy's face changed.

"Sister!"

Marie, however, had an excited look on her face and wanted to run to Lydia's side, but was stopped by

Maisy.

"Remember who you are, you are the Princess of the Henderson family, why are you getting so close

to her, a commoner woman?"

"But ----"

"No buts, stand back!"

Maisy bellowed.

Marie just had to stand back obediently.

This scene fell in the eyes of Leo and Lydia, which made them even more furious.

Lydia, in particular, had eyes that were about to burst into flames.

She strode towards Maisy.

The guests around the table also looked at each other with embarrassed faces.

Maisy had announced that Marie was the only princess of the Henderson Clan, and then Lydia came,

didn't this mean that Maisy had announced this in front of her?

"I can't believe you're back!"

Maisy's eyes were shady as he looked at Lydia.

Leo followed behind Lydia, watching her with the same cold eyes.

Lydia, who was a head taller than Maisy, looked down at her from a height and said in a cold voice,

"When did it become your turn to be in charge of this family?"

A moment of fear flashed in Maisy's eyes, but she had the cards in her hand and was fearless.

Maisy sneered, "It seems you still don't know that Karl has already let go of her power to me, the one in

power in Henderson’s now is me, is it wrong for me to set up my daughter as Henderson’s only lady?"

Leo's eyes became even colder: "It's true that Marie is Henderson’s lady, but Lydia seems to be too,

right? It's too disrespectful of you to ignore Lydia."

He thought Maisy would be weak-minded, but he didn't expect Maisy to not only be unafraid, but to

have a more mocking expression on her face.

"Leo, I have to say sorry to you, I shouldn't have said you weren't good enough for Lydia before, you

are, you two are a natural pair!"

Maisy's words carried a sting in them, and Leo was very uncomfortable to hear, and Lydia even

frowned slightly.

"What do you mean?"

"Do I need to tell you what that means?"

Maisy sneered, then she pointed at the door, "With all due respect, you are not even qualified to step

into Henderson’s door now!"

Maisy's unforgiving expulsion caused everyone's face to change slightly.

All present were intelligent people, and they vaguely heard something unusual in Maisy's words.

Marie also asked, "Mom, why are you kicking sister out?"

Maisy sneered, "Since you shamelessly have to come in, then I will tell you why."

The next moment, she pointed at Lydia and said loudly, "In fact, she's not even from the Henderson

family, we've been kept in the dark about this secret for over twenty years, and now it's time for it to be

made public!"
