Chapter 356
“Yes, ma’am,” the butler responded promptly.
Clearly, this “Lily” was indeed a fake.
“Lily” panicked. Her dark eyes glistened with tears as she glanced at me, then at Madam Shaw and Bethany, Finally, she collapsed to her knees in front of Frank.
“Mr. Smith, please spare me!!”
“I shouldn’t have been so deluded, shouldn’t have tried to pass myself off as someone else…”
Frank, who usually had little patience for others, frowned. “Go beg whoever sent you here.” 1.
As her eyes wandered to look elsewhere, Madam Shaw barked, “Flint, hurry up and get her out of here! Mom, if it were up to me, I’d say get rid of her and send her back where she came from.”
Madam Shaw’s eyes narrowed with sharp intent, but she did not respond directly to the woman’s pleas, She only looked at Frank.
“Frank, I assume the report from overseas is already available?”
“It’s out and will be here soon.”
Frank nodded and checked his watch. “Five minutes.”
“Good.” Madam Shaw sighed in relief.
During the wait, the entire conference room was quiet
I looked at Frank’s expression and roughly guessed the answer..
My heart pounded like a drum.

Madam Shaw and Bethany were visibly growing anxious.
Madam Shaw kept glancing at the time.
With two minutes remaining, Madam Shaw could no longer sit still. She looked at Frank and suddenly said, “Even if the two hospitals have different results, what does it prove? Just because the overseas one is different, does it mean it’s necessarily correct. Who knows if you might have tampered with it…” Frank sneered. “You’re overthinking it. The overseas assessment was conducted under strict surveillance, and I even had them provide a copy of the surveillance video.
Madam Shaw gritted her teeth but maintained her composure. “It’s rare for you to be so thorough. Fine, I’ll see what the results are!”

As I watched, I felt a pang of sadness.

Her rejection of me was so intense.
And my aversion to her was no less.
Could there really be a mother and daughter who loathed each other to this extent?
In the meantime, Frank went out to take a call. Through the French window, his lips were pressed into a thin line.
As soon as he hung up, someone brought him a new report.
He walked in, holding the report and handed it to Madam Shaw. “Grandma, I already know the result. Please see it for yourself.”
