Chapter 47 Just a Foster Daughter

Hearing this, Milly couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Sure enough, Stephanie’s face turned pale on the spot.

“You…”

She couldn’t

say anything in return. After all, what Melanie said was true–she was a foster daughter.

Melanie instantly felt relieved when Stephanie was mad. Her mood, which had been long suppressed as a result of Stephanie’s abuse and betrayal, suddenly improved. She said, ‘Stephanic, you should be sensible in the future. Milly might be forgiving and won’t hold it against you, but not me.

“Anthony, did I say something wrong? Why did they treat me like this?”

Melanie was overcome with the urge to vomit by her tricks. She had goosebumps all over her body. Melanie leaned in to Milly and said, “Boss, I have genuinely wronged you before. I didn’t know she was so disgusting before.”
