After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 989

Chapter 989

While Sylvia, Larro, and Franklin were on their way back to the Hipps family, the Hipps family had already become a bustling hive of activity.

"Is Miss's room ready? It should be the largest one upstairs, with the best lighting. Make sure all the furniture and bedding are top-notch, you hear?" Old Mrs. Hipps cheerfully instructed the butler.

Her usually stern face now wore a smile, like a blooming chrysanthemum.

The butler hurriedly responded, "Everything will be of the highest quality, no neglecting Miss."

Word has it that the real Miss has been found, and the paternity test has been done three times. There won't be any mistakes this time.

The whole family was in high spirits. Since the big incident that happened to the Hipps family last year, all their relatives had moved to the Hipps Residence to live together, aiming for unity and liveliness.

The biggest taboo in a large family is hidden agendas and power struggles.

However, at least for now, such situations had not arisen.

These collateral relatives relied on the Hipps family for survival, so they didn't dare to cause trouble or make mischief. Old Mrs. Hipps and Old Mr. Hipps turned a blind eye to their antics.

The collateral Misses considered themselves as part of the Hipps family and always held themselves high.

But now, they all received the notice that the real Miss had returned.

The Misses were currently gathered together for afternoon tea, dressed in fashionable and exquisite attire. They seemed like true noble ladies, but their words were filled with disdain and contempt for Sylvia, the unknown true Miss of the Hipps family.

As if they were the true aristocrats, and Sylvia was just a country girl from a small place.

In reality, they were all dependent on the Hipps family as collateral relatives. But the Hipps family didn't neglect them; they kept them well-groomed.

Each of them had servants attending to their needs and luxurious cars to ride in when going out.

Every month, the main Hipps residence would give them pocket money, like little parasites.

Those who had ambitions went out to work or found jobs in the Hipps family's company. Those without prospects relied on their pocket money to get by.

After all, that pocket money was a dream income for many people outside.

It could fully support their extravagant lifestyles.

Previously, they were all on equal footing as collateral relatives, and they didn't feel any different. They were all called Miss Hipps when they went out.

But now... the legitimate Miss had returned.

The Misses suddenly felt uncomfortable and resentful.

Why did that woman who came back from Larro have such a good life and become the true Miss of the Hipps family?

"Who knows? We'll see at tonight's banquet," said a woman with a pointed chin named Annika Hipps, her seductive eyes oozing allure.

A round-faced girl pouted and said, "I heard they did three paternity tests. How could it still be fake? If it's fake again... where would it leave the face of the Hipps family?"

She was Martha Hipps, with a round and smooth face, slightly yellowish skin compared to her sisters' fair complexions, giving her a somewhat rustic appearance.

Especially since she was wearing a floral dress, she exuded the air of a village belle even more.

"Who knows! We'll find out at the welcoming banquet," Maritza Hipps yawned and deliberately showed off her sparkling diamond ring on her right hand. "I'm a bit tired. I'll take a nap first. I won't entertain you sisters."

"I'm tired too. Let's go," Jaelynn Hipps stood up with great insight. "Old Mrs. Hipps has prepared a reception banquet tonight, so we mustn't embarrass our Hipps family."

In other words, they all had to dress up and not let themselves be overshadowed by that woman who came from a small place like Larro.

"Jaelynn is right. Let's go back and rest quickly. A beauty sleep like hers cannot be missed," another sister agreed.

After hearing Jaelynn's words, everyone stood up and agreed. They all returned to their respective courtyards, leaving Maritza's lakeside cottage behind.

Each of their families lived in separate courtyards, with two-story villas filling each one.

The Hipps Residence was vast in size, with many courtyards scattered around, providing a pleasant living environment. So once these relatives moved into the Hipps Residence, they never wanted to leave again in their lifetime.

Their properties outside could be used for investment and making money.

Why not take advantage of it?

They weren't as foolish as Chaya and Niamh!
