"Ruby."
Megan immediately rushed to support her daughter.
"Ruby, how are you doing? Are you okay?"
Ruby leaned on her mother, barely managing to stand.
She bit her lower lip hard, the pain sobering her. Clenching her mother's hand tightly, she spat out angrily: "No way! No way! How could Lucinda be the daughter of the Blue family from Skywatch? Stefan must have hired someone to make this up."
She had always felt that Stefan was hers alone, that country bumpkin Lucinda wasn't even worthy to shine Stefan's shoes.
She always considered herself far more noble than Lucinda.
And now they were telling her that Lucinda's status was many times more noble than hers. How could she accept this?
This was like a punch to the face, smashing her pride.
The head of the Blue family even said Lucinda could inherit around seven billion dollars from him!
The entire wealth of the Scott family didn't even reach a hundred million dollars!
Lucinda could inherit around seven billion dollars! The difference was astronomical.
She felt an unbearable gap.
If all this was true, she was not only inferior to Lucinda, and she wasn't even worthy to polish Lucinda's shoes.
She had always thought of herself as a noble girl. In front of Lucinda, who could inherit around seven billion dollars, she was the country bumpkin!
"Ruby, let's go home first; we'll talk about it at home."
Megan also hoped all this was a farce, a show put on by Stefan's hired help.
But her experience told her it wasn't a show, it was real.
Lucinda was the daughter of the Blue family from Skywatch.
As soon as she came back, she checked Lucinda's information and knew that Lucinda was not the biological daughter of the Moore family. She must have biological parents since she wasn't the Moore family's biological daughter.
Now, maybe her real parents had come to find her.
Up close, she also saw the resemblance between Lucinda and Grace. Though Grace was older, she was well-maintained, and Lucinda's features looked a lot like hers. They would look like mother and daughter if Grace were a bit younger.
And that man in the video, if they looked closely, he did resemble Lucinda.
In this day and age, identifying kinship was not like before, and it now required DNA paternity testing.
Especially for a large family like the Blue family from Skywatch, they would conduct multiple DNA tests.
The people from the Blue family, publicly claiming kinship, must have already done the DNA test.
Also, after the video incident, the Anderson family didn't react at all. Considering Stefan's concern for Lucinda, how could he not react?
Because they were siblings.
Maybe Stefan knew who released the video long ago, and he didn't react, just waiting for the Blue family to arrive and publicly expose her daughter!
Megan saw things more clearly than Ruby.
Ruby angrily watched as the head of the Blue family took away Lucinda for the recognition ceremony, and the journalists, besides constantly taking photos, dared not do anything else.
However, the journalists were pretty excited.
They didn't get the scoop on Mrs. Coleman's affair, but they got the knowledge that Mrs. Coleman was the eldest daughter of the Blue family from Skywatch.
Mr. Coleman had good taste!
He casually rented himself out, got married, and landed the lost daughter of the Blue family.
Stefan: “I didn't just rent myself out casually. Who else could rent me but Lucy?”
