"At tomorrow’s press conference, I’ll declare that Marie is no longer fit to be the Hoffman family’s young lady because of this scandal."

"And I’ll also announce that the baby will be registered under my name, ensuring that when he grows up, he can inherit the Hoffman Group without opposition."

Inside the office, Mandy’s eyes filled with emotion at his words.

Meanwhile, outside the door, I felt like I had been plunged into an ice-cold abyss.

My body trembled uncontrollably as I realized the extent of Sean’s cruelty.

Soon, the entire world would see those videos. My humiliation would be eternal.

I staggered back, my fingers accidentally knocking against a trash bin.

The noise startled them.

Sean whipped around and opened the door, his eyes flashing with a momentary panic before he quickly composed himself and strode toward me.

"Marie… what are you doing here?"

"Didn’t the doctor say you weren’t fully recovered? You should be resting in the hospital for a few more days."

Before I could say a word, Mandy stepped out of the office.

The gold pendant engraved with the name "Mandy" still hung around her neck.

"Sister, long time no see."
