“Could she not be their biological child?”

“Then that branch is finished. No one but Nadia can amount to anything.”

“If she isn’t a Corbin by blood, what right does she have to compete for the head position?”

“Not married at her age, all for power. Now she finds out she isn’t even qualified. How pathetic.”

Sean spoke in a stern, authoritative voice, “Quiet.”

He narrowed his eyes, guessing her intentions. “Go on.”

Stella listened while eating.

She was curious about what Nadia planned to do.

“My adoptive father’s entire branch is good–for–nothing. They didn’t want their own children to suffer. To seize the family head position, they took me away 47 years ago. They lied to my birth mother, saying I was dead. They tore me from my family.”

The entire hall fell into shock.

“All these years, I studied hard, never slacking off. I only wanted to pass the heir competition on my own. I never wronged any of you. Yet you treated me like a pawn. You took me from my real parents. Why couldn’t you treat me well? They secretly drugged me when I was only a teenager. I can never have children because of them. I worked hard to make the family prosperous. But you planned to strip me of everything once I became the head. I withdraw from the competition.”

Nadia smiled bitterly. “Of course, I was never qualified anyway.

“Today, I ask the family head to hand over a few people. In exchange, I will give all my businesses back to the Corbin family.”

The Corbin family was even more stunned.

“Did I hear that right? Nadia owns so much.”

“She’s a business genius and skilled in medicine. But people look down on her because she’s

unmarried.”

“To give it all

up…

that courage is admirable.”

“Why would she

expose this?”

“She realized she was just being used. Once she’s no longer useful, they’ll throw her away. Better to act now. She wants those people gone. She’s willing to pay a price.”

“Mr. Oswald Corbin won’t agree. Everyone competes behind closed doors, but if he hands them over, she’ll kill them. As the head, he can’t abandon his own blood, even if he dislikes that branch.”

Oswald was horrified. She’s not a Corbin.

He turned to Nadia’s adoptive father. “Garrett, you’ve been playing a very long game.”

Nadia’s adoptive father, Garrett Corbin, stammered, “Mr. Oswald Corbin, I-”

Nadia said calmly, “The others can’t be here. They’re covered in bandages. It would be bad luck.”

“Nadia, I told you. You are the most qualified to lead. All of this was a misunderstanding,” Garrett said.

Nadia sneered at her sobbing adoptive father.

Men are born actors.

If she hadn’t learned the truth, she would never have known they planned to use her and then destroy her.

She would never allow that.

She could destroy them directly, but the Corbin family would punish her. They valued their reputation too much.

A trade was better. She would eliminate them and leave for good.

“Mr. Oswald Corbin, I give you everything I built. In exchange, give me his entire family. Deal?”

“Hah! How naive. You’re not even a Corbin. Mr. Oswald Corbin will never protect you,” Garrett said.

Nadia remained calm. “If anything happens to me, your parasitic relatives die too. You’ll lose everything in your old age.”

“You-”

Garrett could only turn to Oswald. “If this gets out, the Corbin family will be disgraced. You can’t listen to her. We’re blood relatives. We’re family.”

Stella sipped her coffee and looked up. “Granduncle, don’t you think Nadia looks familiar?”

The term Granduncle left Oswald frozen.

Sean and Shane stared in shock, their lips curving upward.

“What… what did you just call me?” Oswald could not believe it.
