"I am just here to take back what belongs to me. I won't come back in the future."
After Lucille said that, she stepped forward. She didn't want to have any more interactions with Natasha in case random reporters suddenly came out of nowhere.
"The things that belong to you?" When she heard that Lucille was here to take some things, Natasha's expression looked bad. "Is there anything else in this house that's yours?"
"It has nothing to do with you."
She said as she was about to walk past Natasha.
However, when the two of them reached the door, Natasha immediately blocked her. "What is inside that? Let me see!"
Marvin's will was altered. Besides that, they had spread many rumors. Natasha was afraid that she was there to collect evidence since Alma was not around.
"These are my things. Why should I show you what they are?" Lucille stood in front of her.
"Dad passed away. This house belongs to us now, and everything here belongs to us. You took things from our house, so of course, I want to see it!"
They destroyed Lucille's reputation, yet she could not do anything about it. Natasha did not bother anymore. When she spoke, she raised her hand and directly pushed her down in front of the stairs.
The box in Lucille's hand tilted to one side, and some things inside of it fell out.
"Miss Lucille!"
When Jessie saw that she was almost pushed down, she immediately went up to help her.
"Miss Lucille? Are you blind? Now, there is only one daughter in the Jules family, and that's me! There's no such person as Miss Lucille anymore, don't you understand?" When Natasha heard Jessie call Lucille that, she pointed at her and scolded her ruthlessly.
Jessie knelt beside Lucille. She lowered her head and held her gently. However, she still had to apologize to Natasha, "I understand."
Lucille remembered Jessie calling her Miss Lucille when she came in, and now, Natasha was screaming at her. She stood up with the support of the stairs and shielded Jessie behind her. She told Natasha, "Natasha Hoffman, have you mistaken something?"
Lucille, who had always been gentle, stopped being weak.
When Alma took Natasha home, her surname was not Jules. It was Hoffman.
"What are you talking about?" Natasha did not expect her to do this.
"I have always been the only daughter of the Jules family, and you are an illegitimate b*stard. Because of your mother's help, you entered the door of the Jules family and turned yourself from a beggar to a rich family's young lady."
Lucille had never been a dominant person, and she would not take advantage of other people's weaknesses against them.
However, after the death of Marvin, his cheap tombstone, and Alma and Natasha's smears against her, she could not afford to be weak anymore.
"I've told you a long time ago that I am Dad's biological daughter!"
Natasha didn't expect Lucille to suddenly bring this matter up.
She was not willing to face her own past at all.
"Dad passed away, and he has been cremated. No one will believe you. Besides, how could the Jules family have someone like you?"
Lucille was a little taller than Natasha. She looked down slightly at her, and her expression was as determined as possible. She showed no sign of weakness at all.
