The following morning, Yuliana showed up uninvited in the living room of the Fullers' residence.
Tears tumbled in her eyes as she sat on the sofa and wept.
Sitting in a leather recliner chair was Shane's mother, Raina Fuller. She had just stepped into her fifties but, due to her meticulous self-care routines, her skin was firm and her complexion ruddy. She had managed to preserve her slender figure and the lady resting on the chair looked to be no more than 25.
She donned a black short-sleeved dress with flower prints. Through the dignified air that emanated from her, there was no less beauty and grace.

Still, she consoled patiently, "You knew Shane has always disapproved of dirty tricks. Drugging him was just you digging your own grave." "Aunt Raina, I was not in my right mind! If anything, it's because Shane..." Yuliana's voice trailed away as she sulked.
If Shane had so much as laid just a finger on her, she wouldn't have resorted to such lowly means.
Now that things had gone south with her plan, she knew Shane would never forgive her. The first thing Yuliana did was turn up at the Fullers' residence so she could beg his mother to back her up. But who knew that Raina would only watch coldly from the sidelines? Raina sneered and hissed in a harsh tone, "That's got to be your incapability." With that, she picked up the cup of chrysanthemum tea next to her and took a sip.
Just then, the servant who was standing aside walked over. "Madam, you've previously arranged to meet up with Mrs. Huggins; it's about tnow." Hearing this, Yuliana grew upset. Was this not simply a euphemistic way of kicking her out? She hurriedly butted in, "Aunt Raina, my only motive in doing this is because a woman has been latching herself onto Shane! She has a child born out of wedlock, and now, she's using her daughter to pin Shane down so he could be her father. This is why Shane is being cold to me." As expected, Raina's features contorted in disdain.
Raina was the only child of the River family. At the age of twenty, she married into the Fuller family.
At that time, the alliance of the two influential families promptly captured the national stock market.
Since forever, Raina Fuller was widely known to be someone who absolutely loved her pride.
She swore by her hatred for the appearance and interjection of a mistress.
Even if Yuliana was far from being her ideal daughter-in-law, she would never lay idle if someone were to try and cin between them.
"Who is she?" "Her nis Charlotte Emerson." Yuliana avoided the question and steered from the main point. "Aunt Raina, if the Fullers were to associate with a woman like her, it would make your family a laughing stock for the whole nation." This statement of hers was surprisingly ingenious, a rare occurrence from her. It struck Raina's Achilles heel directly like a clean arrow.

She swore to herself that she would never allow others to take her son as a joke.
"Aunt Ophelia, give Shane a call. Have him cback for dinner tonight," Raina ordered to the servant by her side.
"Okay, Madam."
Delight immediately washed over Yuliana and Raina happened to m capture the malicious smirk that appeared on her face for a split second. Despite this, she acted as if she didn't see it at all. "You may leave now. Wait for my call," she said to Yuliana in a collected tone.
After sending Yuliana off, Raina immediately summoned the oldm butler and had him send private investigators after this woman named Charlotte Emerson.
If one dared ruin her son's and the Fullers' reputation, they best bem prepared to face her vicious grasp, for she would not let any single one of them off the hook.
