The helpers, fearing the situation, hesitated but did their best to push Sally out.

Nina was no longer polite and said, "Whenever Miranda is in trouble, you jump to her defense. You just want me to know she's your daughter and you want to protect her. But remember, you abandoned her once. Now you want to make it up to her? You should consider whether she even wants your help!"

Sally was taken aback, thinking this was still a secret. But realizing Nina already knew, she did not bother hiding it. "Yes, Miranda is my daughter. I've sacrificed so much for the York family. How dare you slander her!"

"I don't slander," Nina replied firmly. "If you want to seek justice for her, take it up with the police, not me. Today, her reputation is ruined. Tomorrow, I'll make sure she's in jail for life!" Turning to the helpers, she added sternly, "Show her out!"

Recognizing Nina's authority, the helpers hurriedly escorted Sally out. Sally, deeply shocked and humiliated, couldn't tolerate the insult any longer.
