Side Chick Era... Over

Chapter 1003

Rick remembered something one of the shareholders—a man angling for his favor-had once confided in him.

“Rick, you can’t blame your mother too much for how she felt. You have to understand, it was Victoria’s mother who destroyed her life. She tore Shayla’s family apart, forcing her to leave her home and everyone she loved. As a result, her own daughter never had access to the best education or opportunities. Meanwhile, Victoria grew up being doted on by everyone, the darling of high society. Anyone in your mother’s position would be bitter.”

Victoria’s mother had stolen Shayla’s husband. And now, Victoria-that woman’s daughter

-wanted a piece of the legacy that rightfully belonged to Shayla’s own children.

Even a fool would have made moves to secure her own children’s future.

Maybe Victoria herself was blameless, but her very existence was a monument to Shayla’s

humiliation.

While Shayla was fighting to save the company, raising three children completely on her own, her husband-who had lost his memory-was playing house with another woman.

He’d even started a new family with her. 1

And now, that other woman’s child was supposed to be raised under Shayla’s roof, treated as one of her own, and given an equal share of her children’s affection and inheritance.

Shayla had always been a proud woman. There was no way she could ever swallow that kind

of disgrace.
