Mom had no choice but to ask Dad for
money. In the end, Dad paid 300,000 as a
sponsorship fee to get Ashley into the same
high school as me.
300,000 wasn’t a small amount.
The news spread quickly.
Ashley portrayed herself as a rich heiress.
Over the years, Dad’s business grew bigger and bigger.
Our family’s company was one of the best in the city.
Under Ashley’s deliberate guidance, people at school thought she was Dad’s biological daughter, and I was just a relative’s child.
I would smile and say nothing whenever I
heard those rumors.
Lies wouldn’t become true no matter how
often they were repeated.

To maintain her image, Ashley kept asking
Mom for money.
Phones, shoes, clothes, bags.
She wanted the latest models.
As Ashley’s vanity grew, the amount of money
she wanted increased.
Dad didn’t want to continue being a fool, so
Mom set her sights on me.
She knew Dad doted on me and had given me
a black card with no spending limit.
She tried everything to take it.
I was annoyed, so I returned the black card to
Dad
<
Mom scolded me for days, calling me stupid.
I thought it was stupid to spend Dad’s hard- earned money on Ashley.
After getting the dress, we went to the hotel.
Ashley had already changed into her dress.
Seeing her running around, people would
think this was a birthday party for her.
“Tiffany, you’re here!”
Ashley saw me walking in with a cane, still
wearing casual clothes.
She deliberately spoke loudly to attract
attention.
The people who came were our classmates.
“She’s a relative’s child. She’s wearing a t- shirt and jeans to this event.
”
The speaker was a female classmate who was close to Ashley.
“Ashley is the real heiress. She’s just trash
who can’t be seen on the table.”
Ashley was thrilled, strutting like a proud
peacock.
“Tiffany, if your legs are hurt, just rest and
move less!”
Ashley deliberately arranged for me to sit in
the corner.
く
She also had her toadies keep an eye on me,
preventing me from walking around.
She just wanted to prevent me from putting
on that custom–made dress.
As long as I put on my dress, people would
know who the real rich girl was.
I sat in the corner, enjoying a glass of juice.
The invited guests arrived one after another.
The banquet officially began.
The original plan was for Dad to take me
onstage to receive gifts and cut the cake.
Mom wanted Ashley to replace me onstage
because I was inconvenient.
Dad refused to take Ashley onstage.
Mom pushed Dad away and took Ashley
onstage.
Ashley stood under the spotlight in front of
the big screen, accepting everyone’s
blessings.
The show was about to start!
The big screen behind Ashley suddenly played
a video.
The video clearly showed Ashley with a
middle–aged man.
“Did you get the money?”
“Lily is too stingy. She only gave me 50,000!”
“50,000 isn’t enough for me to gamble for
one night. Go back and ask for more!”
“That Donald is very clever. He only gives
money to Tiffany. Lily is a fool, but she
doesn’t have much money.”
Lily was my Mom. She recognized the
middle–aged man in the video as Ashley’s
uncle.
She didn’t expect that Ashley would call her a
fool after all these years.
Ashley knew that it was my doing.
“Turn off the video!”
She shouted at the staff.
<
The staff turned off the video, but it was too
late.
“Mom…”
Ashley tried to comfort Mom.
“Don’t call me Mom. I’m not your Mom. I’m
just your aunt.”
Mom kept her distance from Ashley.
Dad calmly walked onstage, took the
microphone, and said that he had an
announcement.
