The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 715

"Octavia... she can't be that evil."

"Maybe it was an accident."

Cindy tried to defend her mother.

But her words sounded remarkably weak and hollow.

After all, Cindy hadn't actually spent much time with Octavia herself.

Plus, being the biological daughter meant Octavia would naturally treat her much better than she had treated her adopted stand-in.

"I don't know if she's pure evil or not, but she was an absolutely miserable mother to me."

"Oh, right, and while you're busy defending Fallon, let me guess—you don't think she's 'that bad' either?"

"Does Octavia know you're out here begging for mercy on behalf of the woman she hates more than anyone in the world?"

Cindy choked. Of course she didn't!

If her mother found out, she would probably explode.

"That's what I figured." Claire gave Cindy a mockingly sharp look. "If she knew, she'd blow a gasket."

"You're a grown woman. You can't play both sides."

"Your godmother or your biological mother. You have to choose."

Cindy couldn't understand why she had to make such an agonizing decision.

She didn't want to choose at all!

"If you don't get out of my sight, I'm calling Octavia to come collect her precious daughter."

Claire truly had zero patience left for Cindy's idiotic rambling.

While Cindy tore her hair out trying to balance her loyalties, Claire suffered no such conflict.

Fallon had to pay for kidnapping her.

Claire didn't give a damn about Fallon's tragic sob story or her motives. Ruining the lives of innocent kids made Fallon a monster.

Claire could have grown up surrounded by the warmth of her actual family instead of returning to Pandora's side as an adult. Fallon stealing a baby without consent was a heinous crime.
