Zephyr looked at Nelly in repulse and shook her off.
Cordelia held his arm and looked at Nelly icily.
Nelly still wanted to cling to Zephyr, but the bodyguard stepped forth and shoved her to the floor.
The doors were opened again. This time, Mandy came in, wheeling Kelly. The latter was pale and frail in the
wheelchair, but the determination in her eyes frightened Nelly.
“Mandy, Kelly…” Joe was sweating profusely with a nervous expression. “Why are you both here?”
Mandy scoffed, “Are we supposed to watch you hand the family business over to this scornful, vicious b*tch
otherwise?”
“Mandy!”

“Joe Tanner, you must have forgotten about our prenup, huh?”
“What?” Joe paled as he read the prenup with bulged eyes.
It was only then that he recalled that Mandy’s family, the Chrisses, had asked him to sign a prenup before they
married over 20 years ago. The prenup had accounted for their premarital assets. When the Tanner Group was
established, Mandy owned 2/3 of the company, according to it.
Because Mandy had never been on guard against Joe, she had never taken the prenup out.
Joe was used to being the boss all these years, so he had also forgotten about the existence of this prenup.
Mandy announced, “The prenup states that I have the right to veto the future successor and any important decision
within the company!
“I’ve never practiced the right in the past due to our relationship as husband and wife.” Her gaze was cold as she
looked at Joe. “But I’m invoking it today!”
Joe turned pale, and his hands shook uncontrollably.
“Everyone!” Mandy took a deep breath and raised her voice. “Nelly Tanner is not my biological daughter. She’s an
illegitimate daughter of Joe and another woman! He kept this a secret from me for over 20 years, deceived me into
raising his illegitimate daughter for over 20 years, and overlooking my own child…
“I refuse to die with this!”
Those who were there were dumbstruck by the news.
Cordelia shuffled to Zephyr and gripped his hand nervously. The man held her hand back, his large warm palm
wrapping around her small palm.

“For real?” The crowd buzzed instantly. “Nelly Tanner’s a b*stard child?”
”Got to give it to Joe. Having an affair over 20 years ago!”
“Hah, told you. Some people just look like nice guys, but they’re actually horrible people!”
Joe’s legs gave out, and he would have nearly fallen to his knees if Nelly did not hurry over to hold him steady. She
was not doing any better, though. Her cold sweat had drenched the luxurious embroidered gown.
“N-No…” Joe denied, “Nelly… We picked up Nelly from the orphanage. I-I have proof of adoption…”
“I have proof too!” Kelly spoke up firmly.
Joe met her eyes.
This was the first time in over 20 years that he felt his ailing daughter had such a sharp gaze.
“Dad.” Kelly looked at him coldly as she pulled out a stack of documents and threw it upward.
As the papers scattered down like a snowy storm, each snowflake told of the injustice and abuse she had gone
through all these years.
“This is my proof!” Kelly said softly, “A DNA test and injury assessment reports!”
