Chapter 584
“If you can’t understand why I’m saying this, then there’s no way you can revive your business. It’s no
wonder the Tanner family is still being trapped in this ce.” Isabelle wiped her hands and gave me a
piece of the dessert. She said with a smile, “Yvonne is the only reason why I’ve shown mercy to
Scarlett and Yvette. I will never agree to let them be in charge of the Tanner family.”
“I…” Nathan looked troubled. “Is there no room for discussion?”
“Not at all.” Isabelle stood up and mmed the table. “You can only hand over the Tanner family to
Crystal if you want them to still exist. If Scarlett or Yvette somehow managed to get their hands on the
Tanner family, things will be done between us.”
I had never expected Isabelle’s stance to be this firm. Her tone kept increasing, and by the end of the
sentence, she was basically yelling at us.
“Mom!” I shouted and held her hand, which she quickly shoved me away. She sneered, “Nathan, don’t
me me for this. You should be thanking Eve. If it wasn’t for her persuading me again and again, I’d
have asked for more than this.”
Nathan kept silent for a long while before finally letting out a long sigh. “Fine. I can do that.”
“You’d better.” Isabelle sat back down in her seat. “I’ll give you three days to release a statement to the
media, announcing that Crystal is the heir to the Tanner family. I promise I’ll make sure everything goes
back to normal once I saw the statement, and I can give you back the project too.”
“I don’t need three days. You’ll see the statement by tomorrow.” Nathan sounded defeated.

On our way back, I was still puzzled. Although Isabelle didn’t make things too difficult for Nathan, and
her reasoning made sense too. But, I was still flustered by her request to make Crystal the heir to the
Tanner family.
I felt even more uneasy than making Yvette the heir. Why Crystal? Especially after everything she had
done? Why was she eligible of leading the Tanner family? I wasn’t someone who hold grudges, but I
had to admit I hated Crystal. It was as if she would always be causing me troubles.
I woke up early the next morning. The first thing I did was to read the newspaper. I wanted to see if
Nathan released the statement. In the end, I turned on the television news instead, and I was stunned.
Nathan did hold a media conference, stating that Crystal would from now on inherit everything in the
Tanner family, including the power to make decisions.
This did gain some noise in the industry, but it wasn’t the trending news. Instead, it was something
rted to me. Earlier that morning, Mark held a grand press conference in front of Goldstein
Corporation. Aside from briefing the media about Goldstein Corporation’s recent projects and nning,
he also revealed something important. He announced that I was his stranded daughter.
“Yvonne Tanner is my stranded daughter. My heart aches to not learn about her existence for so many
years. I hadn’t been healthy, and it was hard for me to have kids. Little did I know, I have a daughter out
there, and she’s already an adult. I was surprised and excited. To express my gratitude to the Tanner
family for bringing her up, I’ve decided to share this project with them. Also, Yvonne will be the eldest
daughter in the Goldstein family from now on. You’ll have to ask me before crossing her line.”
I stood in front of the television, trying to process everything I just heard. Was I really Mark’s daughter?
Thest time when we were in the desert, I lied because I wanted to rescue Christopher and the
others. I never expected Mark to announce at a press conference that I was his daughter.
“H-How is this possible?” The cup in my hand slipped, and the milk inside was spilled everywhere. My
mind went nk. After a while, I finally regained my senses. I grabbed the servant, who was busy
cleaning up after my mess, and asked, “Where’s Mom?”
