If she were really Li, she would have revealed her identity to Sebastian ages ago. Would things have ever gotten to this point?"
Martin nodded in solemn agreement. "Exactly. If she were truly Li, she would have slapped that identity on the table the moment Sebastian asked for a divorce.
Even if she had kept it hidden back then, someone with that kind of power would be busy building a massive empire, not obsessing over getting married."
Brandon let out a cold sneer. "Sebastian only dumped Lillian and chose you because you actually had some technical skills.
If he had known Lillian was Li—that she was vastly more capable than you—do you honestly think he would have ever looked your way? Stop dreaming!"
Even though Brandon was shooting down Lillian, hearing him say she was 'vastly more capable' still made Bella bristle with anger.
"Enough! If this Lillian is a fake, then expose her!
Stop wasting time on this! Sebastian is gone! What are we going to do about this disaster of a wedding?
And what about Bella? What's going to happen to her marriage with Sebastian?
Old Mr. Blake demanded a divorce. Will Sebastian really listen to him and end the marriage?
What are we supposed to do? If they divorce, what happens to Bella?
You need to figure out a way to help her!"
Bella violently snapped out of her jealousy over Lillian. Her mother was right—the most critical issue right now wasn't dealing with Lillian's fake identity.
It was her marriage to Sebastian.
Just how much of her mother's scapegoat act did Sebastian actually believe?
If he didn't believe a single word of it...
Bella took a sharp intake of breath.
She forced herself to calm down. "No, we have to split up. Mom, Dad, you figure out a way to handle Lillian. It's best if you publicly step forward and expose her as a fraud pretending to be Li.
