When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind

When the Family 35

Chapter 35 Time to Verify

Finished

Maybe it was the sheer weight of what she’d just “heard,” but Sienna stood there frozen for a long time, stunned into silence.

Her mind was in chaos, thoughts tangled like a nest of wires

Jean noticed how dazed she looked and gently furrowed her brow. Her voice was soft. “Mom, you don’t look too good… Are you tired? Maybe go lie down and rest a bit.”

Sienna slowly came back to herself.

But the turmoil inside didn’t fade. It kept rippling through her chest, like the waves after a stone hits still water.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to stay composed, but her fingers trembled visibly.

“I’m fine, Jean.” She shook her head with a tight smile, but there was something dim and distant in her eyes.

Jean had no idea what had upset her so suddenly

Poor beautiful mom still waiting for that scumbag dad to come home. Does she really believe he’s overseas on business? His old flame is there. His secret daughter is there. For all we know, he’s probably enjoying a happy little family reunion right now.

Sienna’s face went ghost–white. She froze on the spot, like she’d turned to ice.

She couldn’t breathe.

“Mom? Are you okay?” Seeing her pale and shaky, Jean instinctively reached out to steady her.

Sienna looked like she was about to pass out, and Jean was genuinely worried she might collapse.

Sienna stayed silent for a long moment. Then she clutched Jean’s hand as if it were a lifeline.

Even now, part of her refused to believe it.

That man–who had been sweet and flawless for decades, always attentive, always doting–could he really be as awful as her daughter said?

She didn’t want to believe it.

But she couldn’t pretend nothing had happened, either.
