Chapter 54

“So, you’re the illegitimate daughter of the Moore family, Jennifer Moore. You’re quite pretty, but your demeanor does seem a bit distant from that of a proper heiress.”

Jennifer frowned. She was annoyed and believed that Katie was trying to assert dominance by immediately highlighting their status difference. Nonetheless, she still smiled and said, “Ms. Upton, if you brought me here just to humiliate me, then I’ll be taking my leave.”

Jennifer truly wanted to leave, but Katie held onto her hand.

“Calm down. Let’s get to the point. You don’t like your fiance’s ex–wife, right?”

Jennifer was surprised when Sheena was mentioned. “What are you trying to say?”

“Well, I don’t like that bitch either, and I can help you get rid of her.”

Jennifer hesitated.

After all, the Upton family was really influential, and she was indeed intrigued. However, Katie’s demeanor was too overbearing, and she did not appreciate that.

If she could not get substantial help from Katie, she would just be manipulated by her.

After careful consideration, Jennifer sighed. “I’m sorry, Ms. Upton. I’m just an insignificant illegitimate daughter of the Moore family, powerless and without influence. She has almost defeated me a few times before, and I’m afraid I can’t compete with her. So, I can’t help you.”

She rolled her eyes at Katie, ready to leave.

“So what if you’re an illegitimate daughter? As long as you’re willing to cooperate with me, I can help you secure your rightful position and make you the sole heir of the Moore family.”
