NovelUSAChapter 115: When Connor mentioned calling off the engagement, Trenton panicked and harshly reprimanded Melinda, "Why are you just standing there? Serve tea to Mrs. Daniels immediately!" Left with no choice, Melinda knelt before Marissa, performed a kowtow bow, and accepted the teacup passed to her by a servant. She then offered it to Marissa, saying, "Mrs. Daniels, please enjoy stea." Marissa smiled and reached for the tea As she was about to take the cup, she noticed Melinda's hand trembling slightly. Marissa paused and pulled her hand back. "Ah!" Hot tea spilled onto Melinda's hand, making her cry out in pain "You did that intentionally, didn't you, Tiffany?" Dennis Warren, Melinda's brother, accused angrily. Marissa glanced at the fiery young man and retorted mockingly, "Didn't you notice that Miss Warren attempted to scaldbut ended up burning herself instead?" "Stop lying!" Dennis vehemently denied the accusation. "Melinda has been timid since childhood. How would she possibly dare do such a thing? You're clearly holding a grudge againstfor breaking off our engagement, and you're taking it out on Melinda!" Your imagination takes flight on gVInov\lsMarissa suddenly had a light bulb moment. Dennis was Tiffany's fourth fiancé. His decision to break off their engagement had surely caused Tiffany more than a little embarrassment At that moment, Melinda began to softly cry. "Tiffany, do you think Dennis broke off his engagement to you because of my influence? You're mistaken. I may have never spoken well of you, but I don't have the power to sway Dennis's decisions. He ended the engagement solely because your reputation was too poor for his liking." "That's correct," Dennis added. "Tiffany, if you hold a grudge againstfor breaking off our engagement, take it out on me, not Melinda." "Dennis, you must be joking," Marissa replied, looking at him as if he were foolish. "If you hadn't ended our engagement, how could I have married my wonderful husband now? I'm grateful you rejected me. Why would I bear a grudge? You're overthinking." These words left Dennis speechless Marissa then addressed Melinda, who was still kneeling. "Miss Warren, you said you've never spoken well of me, meaning we were never friends. So don't claim any supposed friendship between us going forward. When you marry into the Daniels family, I'll be your elder, and you the junior. You must remember the hierarchy and talk towith respect. Understood?" "Yes, Mrs. Daniels," Melinda replied. The banquet continued, and the Sanchez family formally accepted Marissa as a member with ceremony. For the first time, Marissa felt valued by her family. Surprisingly, Connor also stayed to watch the ceremony With Connor present, no one acted out, and the ceremony went smoothly. Melinda sat beside Chloe, enviously watching Marissa bask in attention "Tiffany is nothing but trouble. How does she deserve all this attention?" Melinda complained to Chloe "Melinda, let's not be bitter," Chloe replied gently. "It's wonderful to see her finally finding shappiness. We should be happy for her." "Happy for her? Did you see her smugness earlier? I can't understand why Mr. Daniels, with his status, used to detest her but now fiercely protects her." "Probably to appease his grandmother," Chloe replied "Of course, that's the only reason!" Melinda sneered. "But mark my words, once Mrs. Arabella Daniels is out of the picture, Tiffany's luck will run out."
Chloe simply smiled and remained quiet, glancing down at her phone. She had received a message reading, "Miss Brock, we've found out this impostor calling herself Tiffany is actually named Marissa Nash, a simple girl from Adagend! And here's the most ridiculous part-she was Derek's fiancée when he lived in Adagend!"
