The thought of her grandparents choosing this moment to say those words made her feel unbearably nauseated 

“I said. I’m an only child. Who are they supposed to be Where’s the evidence?” Nina retorted. 

This remark did catch the legal novices present off guaril. What evidence? What could there possibly be to proved 

At that very moment, the lawyer handling the division of the inheritance arrived. 

Sarah gave a cold smile and said, “Nina and 1, along with Bennett’s parents, are legally entitled to a share of the inheritance. However, anyone else who wishes to participate needs to provide evidence… Oh, right, evidence is not just about what you say. You claim they are Nina’s siblings, implying they’re Bennett’s children. So… do you have the paternity test result?” 

That single statement from Sarah left the entire group in a profound silence. 

Seemingly finally aware that something was amiss, Sloane couldn’t even pretend to be weak anymore. With rears still clinging to her face, she rushed up to the lawyer and demanded, “You’re Bennett’s lawyer, aren’t you? You know these are all Bennett’s children, right? There’s no issue with them participating in the inheritance division, right? You can’t break the law just because you’re afraid of the Quirks!” 

The lawyer, faced with the mistress, was visibly stressed. “We certainly operate within the law, but if it is as Ms. Sarah states, that these children have not undergone a paternity test with Mr. Bennett, then you have no standing to participate in the division of the inheritance.” 

Well, it turns out that this lawyer had previously met with the mistress. In the past, Bennett often enlisted his help in managing the housing and financial affairs for his mistress and their illegitimate children. However, due to confidentiality, the lawyer wouldn’t disclose this to Sarah. Similarly, he wouldn’t assist the mistress in any illegal activities at this point. He would only act according to the rules. 

Upon hearing this, David’s family finally understood why Sloane had been so confident before. It turned out she knew the lawyer. She must have assumed that the lawyer was on her side, but in reality, he was just an employee doing his job. 

The twins nearby, though they couldn’t hear Isabella’s inner thoughts, were nonetheless engaged in an excited discussion on the side. 

“Sarah is truly impressive,” Eula said. “Even at that time, she was able to stay calm and consider so many things, making quick decisions, and delivering the final blow!” 

“It’s a shame that Bennett died so quickly,” Jake remarked. “Given enough time, Sarah would have certainly divorced him and left them with nothing. Regrettably, she now has to split the assets with two old geezers. The mere thought of it is nauseating.” 

Despite her silence on the side, Janice couldn’t help but reflect on the situation at that time. Upon deeper thought, she was profoundly impressed. 

Previously, Sarah had willingly accepted an immediate divorce, leaving with only the clothes on her back as a sign of cooperation. But what if the situation were reversed? 

Bennett would undoubtedly resist leaving the marriage empty–handed if Sarah uncovered evidence of his infidelity Noww however he had lost the chance to contect mattere in court. If Sarah couldn’t cecure all of

his inheritance through deception, she could still ensure a lawful distribution. Thus, Sarah was fated to remain a widow, unable to pursue a divorce. 

After fully understanding her predicament, Sarah began strategizing on how to secure the greatest benefits for herself and her daughter, despite being widowed. 

Janice felt that if it were her, she would undoubtedly just hide in a corner, wallowing in sadness and grief, not wanting to deal with anything. 

She was somewhat perplexed. “Is there… a point to any of this?” 

Though she had spoken in a hushed tone, merely questioning herself, those around her still managed to overhear. 

“Of course! It’s satisfying! If anyone dares to treat me like a fool, I’ll make sure they end up the fool!” said Eula. “If I’m not having a good time, no one else should expect to either.”
