“Hmph, do you think Monica can marry into a wealthy family? It’ll take her at least two more years to reach the legal age, and who knows, she might have already been tortured to death by that pervert Leo. And why do you care about status? As long as you marry into the Hawn family, you’ll be Mrs. Hawn, the cream of the crop. So what if her status is higher than yours? You’ll still have the upper hand in every way.”
“Well, that’s true. Mom, I will take revenge on you! How dare a bastard like Monica call herself a Donat family member? Who does she think she is? Mom, don’t worry. I will trample her under my feet and make sure she never gets to turn things around…”
Monica, outside the door, felt her heart tighten at these
words.
She and Gail claimed to have the same mother, but she knew they didn’t.
She was a hidden illegitimate child and had never met her
mother.

Since childhood, Monica was considered a surplus in the family.
Clothes, toys, school bags… everything Gail didn’t want was
given to Monica as charity. Her father also despised her mother and saw her as a gold digger, so he also ignored Monica.
Therefore, when the Donat family faced a crisis, it wasn’t Gail who was pushed out, but Monica who had just come of age.
She had been missing for so long and wanted to come back to see them, fearing they would be worried, but now it seemed… that was completely unnecessary. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She released her grip, cast a desolate look at the door, and lowered her head as she walked away, not even noticing the car across the street.
“Sir, it’s Ms. Donat,” the secretary spoke up. “She seems quite upset. Considering her awkward position in the family, she must have heard something.”
Leo narrowed his eyes slightly. He had planned to visit the Donat family and discuss the engagement today, but he didn’t expect to run into Monica with her head hanging low at the doorstep.
She looked dejected, like a dusty pearl. Her thin figure made him feel a tinge of pity.

“Warn the Donat family. They can’t afford to offend Mrs.
Hawn. I can help them solve the crisis today, but tomorrow I can also make them go bankrupt.”
Leo narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice.
The secretary immediately understood that Leo was protecting Monica.
Monica went to a cake shop.
When she felt sad, indulging in sweets was only natural.
She ordered several pieces of tiramisu and happily devoured them.
Leo saw this through the window and couldn’t help but smile.
Initially, he thought she would be sobbing in sadness, but to his surprise, she quickly recovered. Her emotions came and went swiftly as if she had no cares in the world.
Leo was about to turn and leave when a child accidentally bumped into him.
The child looked up at his face and immediately fell to the ground, wailing loudly.
The loud sound startled the customers in the shop, including Monica.
She didn’t expect to see Leo here. She had no idea he was following her and thought he had come here to eat.
At that moment, the child’s mother rushed out and scooped the child up in her arms.
