The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1059

Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Crawling Like a Dog to Live

Lady Phoenix and Edith Phoenix in her arms both looked incredulously at the person in front of them.

Lily Phoenix’s gaze was resolute as she single-handedly, accurately, and forcefully gripped the hand that Lady Phoenix had initially swung towards her.

Then, her gaze shifted, and her other hand lifted without hesitation, retaliating with a slap towards Lady Phoenix.

Smack!

A crisp sound echoed.

Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded.

The originally shouting, crying woman forgot how to speak.

Lady Phoenix was shocked, unable to believe her own biological daughter would raise a hand against her, yet the imagined slap did not land on her face.

Instead, it swung precisely onto the face of Edith Phoenix, who was weakly leaning against Lady Phoenix’s arms.

Seeing the rapid red mark on Edith’s cheek, Lady Phoenix was stunned.

Edith Phoenix was even more stunned.

If the earlier slap was merely a misunderstood, imagined one.

This time, she indeed received a real slap.

And it happened in front of so many guests, slapped by the person she hated most—Lily Phoenix.

Edith Phoenix immediately covered her face, feeling the fiery sensation, almost driving her insane.

Lily Phoenix dared to ruin her coming-of-age ceremony and even had the audacity to slap her!

How dare she?!

Compared to Edith Phoenix’s gaze full of hatred, wishing to tear her apart.

Lily Phoenix was almost trembling with excitement.

She... succeeded!

She not only vindicated herself verbally but also returned the humiliation that Edith Phoenix had once given her.

Lily Phoenix had always known that Edith Phoenix was not a good person.

When she was just brought back to the mansion, barely surviving on leftovers due to Jordan Phoenix’s difficulties, Edith Phoenix pretended to sympathize and brought food.

Only to intentionally spill the fragrant meals onto the ground, and as Lily Phoenix tried to gather the fallen food, Edith Phoenix suddenly pressed her head into the dishes.

She recalled Edith warning her with a charming yet chilling voice,

"Even if you are the Phoenix Family’s daughter, it doesn’t matter. The entire Phoenix Family only values and cares about me. If you insist on returning to this household, then from now on, live like a dog..."

Lily Phoenix indeed lived as she said for the past three months, crouching.

And eventually died in that position.

But now, she stood up.

From now on, the one who should live crouched should be her!

Lily Phoenix felt a sense of liberation throughout her Soul Body, wishing Scarlett would praise her.

Her excitement was too intense, causing her Soul Body that briefly returned to the original body to tremble and revert back to the Ghost Body state.

Scarlett Jennings regained control over the body, but since she was aware of everything that happened through the body, she displayed no change upon switching back.

She calmly withdrew her hand and released the other hand holding onto Lady Phoenix.

Then, in front of everyone, she took out a handkerchief and leisurely wiped the palm of the hand that had just slapped Edith Phoenix.

This action fiercely provoked Edith Phoenix, already on the brink of madness due to the slap.

Her reasoning nearly fled, her eyes maliciously intent on lunging at Lily Phoenix.

Fortunately, Lady Phoenix intercepted her just as she started to move.

Despite Edith being slapped while in her arms, Lady Phoenix was angry, but she knew it wasn’t the time to lose control.

Conversely, Lily Phoenix defied her as the mother and then attacked Edith. Even if the truth were to be revealed today, Lily Phoenix would be seen as the unreasonable one.

Her reputation would be damaged, and she wondered which family would want such a daughter-in-law!
