Since Elaine had complained about not spending enough time together, Nina had spent the entire day hanging out with her.

Originally, Elaine hadn’t planned to let Nina go home. But Sarah called and said there was a family dinner tonight, asking

Nina to come home for it.

Only then did Elaine agree to let her go, though she wasn’t happy about it.

The entire Swanson family was already gathered; Nina was the last to arrive.

The moment Nina walked in, Vivian barked, “Do you know what time it is? Sarah called you at noon, and you only show up now? The whole family’s been waiting for you. What happened to your manners?

“Nina, don’t make me keep repeating myself. This is the Swanson residence, not some nightclub or hotel. This isn’t your personal playground.”

Before Nina could respond, Vivian snapped, “And where were you last night? Do you remember you’re a Swanson now? You’re the face of this family. A Swanson daughter staying out all night. What kind of mess is that?

“Do you remember you’re a Swanson now? You’re the face of this family. A Swanson daughter staying out all night. What kind of mess is that?

“If you can’t fix this nasty habit, then just get out before you cause us any more trouble.”

Vivian was on a full-blown rampage, firing accusations without letting Nina get a word in.

Sarah’s face darkened, and she was about to blow a fuse.

But before she could, Nina cut in, “So our family’s now reduced to letting an 80-IQ loser like me represent its image? Guess we’re done for. Might as well file for bankruptcy.”

“Nina!” Vivian slammed her hand on the table. “You just got back and you’re already wishing our family goes under? What’s wrong with you?”

In Nina’s eyes, Vivian was all bark and no bite.

She scoffed, “I’m a total failure, right, Mrs. Swanson? When I was six, you dumped me in that hellhole. Wasn’t it because my IQ was so low I was an embarrassment you couldn’t bear?”

“N-Nonsense!” Vivian’s face changed, panic flaring up inside her.

Everyone already knew about it. But with Nina calling it out so bluntly, Vivian felt embarrassed, especially when she saw the second and third branches looking at her with sheer schadenfreude./

Vivian’d always flaunted her smart kids. But after Nina came along, all that pride turned to humiliation.

After abandoning Nina and bringing Lily back, she thought she’d reclaimed her pride. But now, Nina was grinding that pride into the dirt all over again.

‘Why would I ever have this brat?’ she seethed. ‘She’s been a pain since day one, and she’s only getting worse.

Nina savored the embarrassed, panicked look on Vivian’s face. She curled her lips into a smirk and said calmly, “I’m a loser, right? And now you need me to save the family’s reputation. Why don’t you just declare bankruptcy?”

Vivian was so mad her teeth were practically chattering. “Are you crazy? What good does it do you if our family goes

bankrupt? Sarah adores you so much, and yet you don’t care about her at all, you selfish jerk!”

“Save your fake concern,” Nina replied coolly. “As long as I’m around, Grandma will never go hungry.

‘As for you, if the family goes under, you’ll have to count on your three genius sons to take care of you. I’m dying to see what kind of life they’ll give you.”

Ethan chimed in, “Make that two. I’m not taking care of her.”
