Chapter 2855


    “Let me tell you, he hasn’t got an ounce of affection for you, and I’ve just confirmed that. This whole


    farce is just to appease Dad. Once he gets his hands on those surveince tapes, he’ll divorce you so


    fast your head will spin. Let me give it to you straight, sister- you haven’t got a chance in hell. We’re


    both women here; I know exactly what you’ve been pining over him for.”


    Regina had no clue where she had disappeared to, but when she heard such a definitive deration


    that there was no hope left for anything between her and Nn, it still pierced her heart deeply.


    But she kept herposure. Her face was as calm as a still pond.


    “Is that so? If I don’t stand a chance, do you think that you do? Ms. Tanner, you sure are ying a


    clever game. But I call you ‘Ms. Tanner’, do you really think you’re one of the Tanners? Madeline


    Skinner, if I’m not worthy, you’re even less so.”


    Imogen frowned and scolded, “Regina, how can you speak to your sister like that? We’ve been part of


    the Tanner family for so many years; how can you say such hurtful things?


    Your sister was only speaking the truth, and here you are, spewing such ugliness. It’s downright


    uncouth.”


    Regina didn’t let her off the hook. “Imogen, better take care of that little thing in your womb. Would be a


    real shame if something happened to it.”


    Imogen instinctively shielded her belly. Regina’s nonchnt gesture toward her abdomen had truly


    frightened her..


    Regina’s eyes were filled with a warning – cross her, and they’d all go down togeth shut Imogen up.


    “And here you are, thinking you’re the high and mighty Regina Tanner. But take a go look at yourself,


    all down and out. You should ask around, and you’ll see how they you like gue! If I were you, I’d just


    find a rope and hang myself.”


    “She might be down on her luck, but she’s still my daughter, and it’s not for some Ski to judge.”


    Francis suddenly appeared at the stairwell corner, causing Madeline to snap her mout shut. She


    frowned and looke at Imogen.


    Imogen, even more frustrated and resentful, wondered how she could have been caugh out by him


    again. Any excuse she could make for Madeline now seemed worthless.


    “Imogen, when you have a moment, perhaps you should teach your daughter some manners, so she


    doesn’t corrupt our child.”


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Francis said it so coldly that Imogen broke out in a sweat.


    Their child had not been born yet; how could Madeline possibly corrupt him? He was warning her – if


    she didn’t fall in line, Madeline could be sent away.


    Madeline’sst name was a gift from him, a mercy. He didn’t care about being the butt of jokes or the


    whispers of wearing a cuckold’s horns. But if she lost his favor, Madeline would have to disappear from


    the Tanner family.


    Regina didn’t care what they were saying. It was all irrelevant to her. She returned to her room, bored


    to tears, and began plotting how to steal the recording.


    She felt wronged, especially by Nn. He hadn’t given her a chance to exin, lumping her in with her


    father as if they were conspiring together. spent together,


    He said all this time she had been setting a trap; but after all the time they spent weren’t there enough


    things to show who she really was? Was she really that untrustworthy?


    “Forget it, what could you do when Dad really did those things. Once I hand over the video, surely he’ll


    believe me then.”
