Divorce Failed! My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 300

"Everything in the Lowell family is supposed to be mine. But ever since she came back, Dad's been talking with you about splitting the inheritance—giving her half?"

"Why? I've lived as the Lowell family's daughter in Aethelburg for over twenty years!"

"My life was perfect, and then that bitch showed up and ruined everything. Am I not allowed to hate her?"

Her voice rose, spilling faster and uglier. "Do you know what I've been doing every day, trying to drive Naomi out of this family?"

"I'll tell you the truth—when I fell on the staircase last time, I did it on purpose. She didn't push me."

"I wanted you and Dad to think she did. I framed her so you'd both hate her."

"And that cat you had? I poisoned it. I wanted Naomi to take the blame."

"As long as everyone despised her, she'd get out of my world—"

With every word out of Sienna's mouth, the atmosphere in the boutique grew colder.

Mrs. Lowell looked like she'd been punched. So did the bystanders.

This wasn't jealousy anymore. It was vicious.

Maeve didn't miss the opening. She stepped in and cracked Sienna across the face—sharp, clean, loud.

"You mess with my girl," Maeve snapped, "and I'll slap the life out of you myself."

The sound rang through the boutique.

And strangely—no one thought Maeve had gone too far.

If anything, a few people looked like they wanted to clap.

Good. Hit her again.

A woman that poisonous deserved worse than a slap.

In the past, Mrs. Lowell would've rushed to protect Sienna.

But now she'd heard it with her own ears—every filthy, calculated thing.

Only then did she begin to understand just how much her biological daughter had been forced to endure.

No one else knew why Sienna had just spilled her secrets like a broken dam.

Maeve did.

She'd slipped Sienna a truth charm.

Mimi had been part of the household, part of Sienna's childhood.

And for the sake of framing Naomi, Sienna had killed it without hesitation.

Twelve years was long enough for anyone—or anything—to become part of a family. If Sienna could kill a pet she'd lived with that long, what would she do one day over money? Over inheritance?

Would she kill her parents too?

The thought made Mrs. Lowell's blood run cold.

Sienna's ears rang from the slap. She looked dazed, like she couldn't even remember what she'd just said.

"Mom, no—what I said just now… I didn't mean it. That's not what I really meant."

Even Sienna didn't understand how she'd blurted out the ugliest parts of her heart.

Maeve, standing nearby, added lightly—twisting the knife with a smile.

"Of course you didn't mean to say it out loud. Those were the parts you preferred to keep hidden."

"If you admit what you really think, you'll lose your precious 'Miss Lowell' title, won't you?"

Sienna's eyes turned savage. "Bullshit. You're making it up."
