Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 2005: Summer Hall Side Story (207)

That girl named Olivia is a fake eldest daughter, Helen Melendy is the real eldest daughter of the Smith Family. As for why there was a mix-up in the first place, the Smith Family doesn’t intend to explain.

Upon realizing this, they discovered that Helen Melendy and Evelyn Taylor’s facial features are ninety percent similar. It’s just that because of the difference in their makeup tonight, coupled with the age gap and everyone’s preconception of Helen Melendy’s family background, they didn’t notice it at first.

Molly Smith, who first asked this question, was dumbfounded when she heard the news, and her eyes incredulously wandered back and forth between Helen Melendy and Evelyn Taylor.

She naturally noticed the striking similarity in facial features between Helen Melendy and Evelyn Taylor.

Recalling Olivia Smith’s face, although she looked decent, she paled in comparison to her aunt.

It was Helen Melendy’s features that truly befitted the identity of the Smith Family’s eldest daughter.

"I suppose I’ve explained enough about my daughter’s identity. If anyone has questions, go ahead and ask. Not that I’ll answer them anyway."

The crowd: "..."

Having said this, Evelyn Taylor cast a warning glance at Molly and that wealthy lady, clearly marking them down in her little book of grudges.

Sorry, she’s just someone who holds grudges. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Harry Hall had been standing quietly by Helen Melendy’s side the whole time. When it came to his wife’s background, what the Smith Family said carried more weight than anything he could offer.

His mother-in-law had efficiently dealt with those trying to embarrass his wife, so Harry knew he didn’t need to say a word.

He leaned down and whispered in Helen Melendy’s ear:

"My mother-in-law is amazing."

Helen Melendy raised an eyebrow proudly and said, "Of course."

The couple stood together, whispering to each other, their sweet interaction pleasing to the eye yet almost nauseatingly sweet.

After Evelyn Taylor spoke, she approached Helen Melendy and said:

"Helen, come and help your mother entertain the guests."

"Sure."

Helen Melendy left her husband and went off with her mother.

Meanwhile, Harry Hall wasn’t idle, as Charles Smith, his father-in-law, called him over to entertain guests as well.

Edward Smith, as the current Head of the Smith Family, naturally had many people seeking to converse with him on this occasion.

Inviting guests over, the Smith Family naturally wouldn’t ignore them as one might elsewhere.

Molly Smith’s jealousy towards Helen Melendy didn’t lessen at this moment. Instead, upon confirming she was the real Smith Family eldest daughter, that jealousy intensified.

As a collateral member of the Smith Family, her parents had taught her from a young age to establish a good relationship with the direct line’s eldest daughter.

Only with strong ties to her uncle’s family could they have a standing within the family.

Thus, from childhood to adulthood, she did her utmost to flatter Olivia Smith, her cousin. No matter how silly Olivia sometimes seemed, she was forced to flatter and praise her, being Olivia’s most loyal follower.

But in the end, Olivia was just a counterfeit, and the real Smith Family’s eldest daughter was offended by a single remark from her earlier.

She simply couldn’t accept that the person she had so tirelessly and unreservedly tried to please was actually a fake.

What had she gained?
