Let’s think about meeting my biological parents next!

The old housekeeper of the Manners Family had already told me briefly about the family in advance.

After my parents lost me, they adopted a child from an orphanage and named her Madeline Manners.

I didn’t know what kind of sparks would be produced by the collision between the real daughter and the fake daughter when I returned to the Manners Family this time.

I had also read some novels and short plays about real and fake daughters and I was ready to fight with this fake daughter in secret.

After arriving at the Manners Family, the old housekeeper greeted me at the door.

He looked a little strange and whispered to me, "Miss, the second daughter has a little conflict with the master and his wife. Please go in and persuade them!"

I nodded.

It seemed that the fake daughter didn’t want me to return to the Manners Family!

This was normal. After all, Madeline grew up in the Manners Family and was used to a life of luxury. She believed that she would inherit the Manners Family's property in the future and she would just be content to be a second-generation rich man who would eat and wait for death.

As a result, now that I, the real daughter, had returned, her beautiful vision had become a bubble and of course she would be very angry and panic.

I recalled the plots in those real and fake daughter novels and I already had several ways to deal with it in my mind.

However, when I entered the Manners Family mansion and saw my parents and Madeline, I was stunned.

My parents hugged me with tears in their eyes, telling me how much they missed me over the years and kept saying that they would make up for their debt to me.

The fake daughter Madeline hugged me excitedly and said in a trembling voice, "Emily, you are finally back!"

"That's great, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and finally I don't have to be forced by my parents to learn those annoying financial management and other things."

"I have heard of your great name in the business world. Many business elites have praised you for your unique vision and bold investment. In the future, you will have full control of our family's industry. I can finally let go and do what I like to do."

My father was so angry that he couldn't stop laughing and my mother was so angry that she took a feather duster and beat Madeline randomly.

Madeline dodged the feather duster in her mother's hand, pushed me out as a shield and said to her parents in a very tough manner, "I just like video games, I just like traveling, I don't like staying in the company to manage those industries!"

"I am proud and free by nature. I don't want to be the kind of bird locked in a cage by you. I can make money to support myself and you don't have to worry about the future."

"My sister is back. She is a genius in financial management and is just suitable for managing our family's industry. If you retire, she can take over our family's industry. Don't even think about forcing me to intervene in the management of our family's industry..."

I stared at this noisy family in a daze and my brain was about to crash.

Where was the fight between the real and fake daughters? Where were the conspiracies and intrigues?

The tricks I prepared were of no use at all!

However, I really like this kind of family atmosphere.

In the end, Madeline was beaten hard on the buttocks by her mother with a feather duster before she gave up!

I also roughly understood the situation at home.

My parents' health was not very good and they wanted to retire early. They originally planned to hand over the Manners Family's business to me and Madeline. However, Madeline had no interest in managing the family's business.

My parents were disappointed with her, but she had her own difficulties. She was a detached person and didn't want to force herself to do things she didn't like.

I didn't expect that this would be the result after returning to the Manners Family. It was also good, at least I didn’t have to worry about those disgusting things in the family.

After I told my parents about Alex and me, my parents were indignant.

"That Alex is really disgusting! The development of the Wilbur Family over the years is obvious to all. If it weren't for you, how could the Wilbur Family develop so fast."

"Daughter, it's wise for you to leave the Wilbur Family. They will regret it sooner or later."

And Madeline's focus of concern was on Celine.

She said to me with a strange look, "Emily, my fiancé has a cousin named Celine. Could she be the bitch who seduced my brother-in-law?"

I was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you have a photo of your fiancé's cousin?"

Madeline found a photo from her mobile phone album. After looking at it, my face became strange.

I nodded and said, "That's her!"

What kind of fate was this!

My parents squinted at Madeline with a dangerous look in their eyes.

Madeline hurriedly said, "Mom and Dad, don't look at me like that, it's none of my business!"

"You all know Charles, he is a good man. Celine was just his distant cousin, we don't have much friendship on weekdays, we just had a meal together some time ago."

I smiled and didn't care, saying, "It doesn't matter, Alex and I have divorced, even if Celine becomes the daughter-in-law of the Wilbur Family in the future, it has nothing to do with me!"

My mother slammed the table and said domineeringly, "No, my daughter can't be bullied like this. No way!"

"Madeline, your wedding with Charles will be held soon. You should make it clear to Charles and ask him to invite Celine to attend your wedding. I must vent my anger for my daughter in public!"

Father also snorted and said, "And the Wilbur Family, we must invite them to come!"

"Let them see with their own eyes what kind of noble status the so-called country girl they abandoned is. I will make the Wilbur Family kneel on the ground and ashamed in public!"

My parents' domineering attitude made me dazed and at the same time, I couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in my heart.

Was this the feeling of being protected? This was my family!

Madeline poked me secretly and whispered, "Our parents are domineering!"

I smiled and nodded.

Madeline smiled bitterly and said, "This is why I want to escape from this home. Emily, you don't know how many times I have been beaten by their mixed doubles since I was a child. Fortunately, you are back. Finally, someone can help me share the firepower!"

I patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "Madeline, you are too naive! My parents are old and in poor health. They don't have the strength to beat people. From now on, I, your sister, will be responsible for beating you."

"Don't worry, I will make up for the sisterly friendship you have missed for so many years!"

Madeline widened her eyes and looked at me in disbelief.

My divorce with Alex was reported by some media.

The Wilbur Family complained first, issued an announcement directly, threw dirty water on me and hired water troops to destroy my reputation.

Netizens who did not know the truth left comments one after another.

"Emily is too arrogant. She thinks that Alex’s company is supported by her. She wants to take all the power. She doesn't even consider her status."

[That's right. She is just a country girl. She really thinks she is the savior of the Wilbur Family. If it weren't for Alex, who would know who she is!]

[When she divorced, she wanted to take half of the Wilbur Family's property. She is so shameless!]

[Shameless gold digger, go to hell!]

[I heard that Alex and his female assistant Celine checked into a hotel some time ago and were caught by Emily and the Wilbur Family!]

[That's all fake news. Alex also came out to clarify that it was Emily who wanted to take half of the Wilbur Family's property and deliberately set up a trap.]

[Bah, she plotted against her own husband. Emily is really a piece of shit!]

I ignored the noise on the Internet. My parents didn't take action either. They wanted to wait for the public opinion on the Internet to slander me to get bigger instead.

At this time, once the Manners Family took action, at most they would scare the Wilbur Family.

What my parents wanted to do was to make the Wilbur Family make more trouble, so that they could beat the Wilbur Family to death with one stick.

In the words of Madeline, "My parents look kind and gentle on the surface, but they are actually very cruel. They are very good at playing the long game of fishing for big fish. I have a deep understanding of this. Just get used to it!"

***

On the day of Madeline and Charles's wedding, the Manners Family invited many business celebrities. The wedding venue was set up in the old manor of the Manners Family.

When Alex and Celine came to the manor, they immediately attracted the attention of many people. Alex’s father and mother smiled and moved closer to those business leaders, deliberately trying to make friends.

Many guests were talking about it in private.

"The Wilbur Family has found a big partner this time. No wonder they abandoned Emily, the business genius, without hesitation!"

"Yeah, who would have known that Celine would be the distant cousin of the Manners Family's son-in-law? Although they are distant relatives, as long as the Manners Family gives the Wilbur Family a little more resources in the future, it will be enough for the Wilbur Family to struggle for decades less!"

"Even so, we shouldn't encourage those idiots on the Internet.”

"If it weren't for Emily, the Wilbur Family would have gone bankrupt long ago. Others don't know what the Wilbur Family is like, but how can we who have dealt with the Wilbur Family not understand it?"

"Isn't the genius personality created by the Wilbur Family for Alex all because Emily has been silently working behind him? Without Emily, how could Alex have the ability to support the Wilbur Family's industries!"

"Just let Emily go out of the house and step on Emily hard. The Wilbur Family did this too unkindly."

"Who let the Wilbur Family hold on to the big legs? Emily can only blame her for being unlucky and running into such an ungrateful family!"

"Hey? Is that Emily at the dining table? How could she enter the Manners Family's manor? Who brought her in? "

At this time, someone found me feasting at the table.

At the buffet table, I was eating sweets to replenish my brain power.

The Manners Family's industry was too huge. In order to understand the Manners Family's industry in detail, I had done enough homework during this period. I had been checking information day and night, which has consumed a lot of energy. I look haggard because of staying up late.
