Selena swore to get rid of the woman. She wouldn’t let anyone ruin her family or steal
her father’s and her family’s fortune. “Mom, get some rest,” she urged her mother.
“I haven’t been this happy for ages.” Olivia was elated today as she felt the flame
between her and her husband had been reignited. “Mom, do you think Dad is a good
husband? Besides, do you think Dad will cheat on you, considering our family’s
wealth?”
“He won’t dare. I’ll break his legs if he ever thinks about it.” Olivia’s immediate reply
was offhand. Even though she wasn’t the most capable woman, she was capable of
throwing a fit and flying into a rage.
The words made Selena’s stomach churn. She originally planned to be as tactful as
possible to reveal her discovery to her mother. However, her mother tended to act
tough in all kinds of situations. Her mother probably couldn’t take it if she told her the
truth.
“Your father might not be good at anything, but I have had him wrapped around my
finger since our first day as a married couple. Even if he thought about cheating on
me, he wouldn’t do that for real,” Olivia answered proudly.
Selena’s pained look was a stark contrast to her mother’s confidence. Little did Olivia
know her husband not only cheated on her but even had an illegitimate son with
another woman.
“Enough. I’ll let you get some rest. I’ll check on your father since he drank too much
tonight.” After that, Olivia left the room.
Selena bit her lip in resentment. Her blood was boiling when she thought of her
father’s mistress. She planned to get rid of the woman and make the woman vanish
on her own without disturbing her mother.
Besides, she would have to warn her father to cut ties with his mistress and b*stard
child.
The next morning was another workday for Selena and she went to work by car. She
had barely sat down when the assistant came over to deliver a message. “Selena, the
manager wants to see you.”
Pushing her chair back in surprise, she headed to the manager’s office, wondering
whether he was about to give her a pay raise or something.
“Selena, your one-month probation is over. We decided not to hire you since you
didn’t meet the requirements.” The manager was frank.
