The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Simone couldn’t care less about her biased parents and brothers, treating them as if they had no blood relation to her. When she was young, Aaron lost her, and human traffickers intended to sell her as a child bride in the mountains. Thanks to her master saving and adopting her, her life wasn’t as miserable as it could have been. Her words successfully changed the expressions of the Grays. They never expected her to decide to cut ties and leave them. Jodie, leaning against Salma, glanced at Simone with a subtle expression. She looked at her while her face showed an apologetic and guilty expression. “No. The one who should leave is me. I’m sorry; I didn’t mean to snatch your opportunity. I just liked that variety show, so Titus went to talk to you.

I don’t want to participate in that variety show anymore. You don’t need to be unhappy. I don’t want to anger and worry you.” On the surface, she appeared guilty, but in reality, it was a strategic retreat. This way, she could distance herself from accusations of intentionally competing with Simone for resources while also showcasing her considerate and generous nature. She was playing her act in front of the Grays, subtly implying that Simone was using the threat of cutting ties and leaving the Gray Family. As expected, the family members’ expressions turned unpleasant. Simone looked at Jodie and retorted without reservation, “Don’t try to act innocent and pitiful in front of me with that look. I won’t fall for that.” She spoke her mind without holding back after completely giving up on family affection. “You say you want to leave and have been saying it for a year, but you’re still here. I’ve long been tired of your act of strategic retreat.

what you guys think.” These words successfully darkened the faces of the Grays. Jodie’s expression changed slightly. She suppressed the anger in her heart and hugged Salma with a touch of grievance. “I’m not. Don’t say such things about our family.” In her heart, she wondered if Simone had gone crazy by choosing to confront her head-on and speaking so harshly. Although being rebuked by Simone left her feeling quite displeased, the fact that Simone had created such a scene today would only make everybody dislike her even more. So, she endured her sarcasm. As expected, Salma was infuriated. “What are you saying? Where are your manners?” Simone shrugged. “I

but she truly didn’t care anymore. “What did I compete for? Since I returned to the family, you two have been clinging to me. Everything I do is interpreted as vying for favor and wanting things that don’t belong to me. If you have paranoid delusions, seek therapy. I won’t play along.” She took the bank card from her bag and threw it onto the table in front of them. “This is the compensation you gave me, and I haven’t used a single penny from it.” There were 150 thousand on this card, barely the amount of Jodie’s monthly allowance, but that was the compensation for Simone over the years. “I

opportunity anymore. In the future, I’ll have Titus fight for some good gigs for you.” Regardless of the circumstances, she was still his biological daughter, and he couldn’t let her leave just like that. Moreover, leaving home after just over a year since returning would make their family a joke in the eyes of others. Simone turned around and looked at her father indifferently. “You think I’d stay for your so-called gigs? How insulting.” He frowned. “I didn’t mean that. All I’m saying is that you are now part of the family, so we will naturally compensate you.” She found it ridiculous. “Thank you for your compensation. For the past year, I have deeply experienced your emotional abuse, complaints, and disdain. So, I’ll pass on that.” Steven was taken aback as he looked at Simone, who seemed unyielding and unapproachable. “What do
