Chapter 344: The Downfall of Lily

Willow had no objections this time. Although she longed to marry Jasper, her daughter's well-being was her priority. The Reed family's acceptance of Lily meant Willow could let go of the marriage; her daughter would be taken care of regardless. Especially now that Lily was recognized by the Reeds, Tina was out of the picture. Jared would belong to her daughter alone.

"Jasper!" Juliet was furious upon hearing the decision. Stomping her feet, she exclaimed, "How could you agree to let Lily return? What about Tina? Lily should even be Tina's older sister. Have you considered her feelings?" In terms of seniority, Juliet should have been their elder sister. However, she was rarely home and seldom involved in the Reed family's business affairs, so few recognized her as the eldest daughter. When Tina returned, everyone naturally assumed she was the Reed's firstborn daughter. But now, Tina, previously second in line, was demoted to third, which was infuriating.

Audrey also expressed her discontent, "Exactly, a bastard child, why should she be allowed back into the Reed family?" Audrey had a mixed impression of Lily, who was a medical prodigy known for her aloof and proud demeanor. However, Tina's actions since her return had not been commendable. Audrey's opinion of Lily had soured upon hearing Willow's shocking revelation. Just like her disdain for Liliosa, she disliked Lily. Audrey never claimed to be kind-hearted, but she hadn't wronged anyone. Liliosa had previously thrown the Reed family into chaos, and now with an illegitimate Lily, especially one brought into the family through dubious means, it made Audrey feel nauseous. She had always viewed love as her most cherished aspiration, and the actions of Willow and her daughter tarnished that beauty.

"Enough!" Jasper suddenly shouted, silencing everyone. "This matter is settled. No further discussion!" Juliet wanted to argue for Tina but was intimidated by Jasper's stern glance, leaving her trembling and silent.

Tina, having received the paternity test results, remained seated, calm as ever. Her face showed no displeasure, a faint smile playing on her lips. Juliet couldn't understand how Tina remained so composed with a threat knocking at her door. Jasper noticed Tina's composure and approached her gently, "Tina, I owe an apology to you and your mother, but... Emrys wants to marry Lily, and she wishes to marry him. I want to fulfill his wish." After a pause, Jasper added, "But rest assured, my wealth will remain yours. Lily won't take anything from it."

Willow and Lily's expressions soured. As expected! A heartless man indeed! Regardless of their actions, Jasper would never truly care for them. But that didn't matter; time would tell whether Tina could claim the Reed family's fortune or marry Jared successfully. They would wait and see.

Tina looked up, standing slowly and said indifferently, "Mr. Reed, this is your family matter. As long as you're happy, there's no need to inform me."
