Vanessa Cruz froze completely at Isabella's actions.
Isabella's tears fell even faster. Her face looked pale and fragile, like she was about to collapse. "I already moved out of the Cruz family with my mother… We don't want anything. We don't want to fight anymore…"
She shook her head as if she couldn't accept reality, her sobs turning into a broken cry.
"Although Ms. Chloe never had any official status… she's been the mistress of the Cruz family on the surface for so many years…"
The word mistress hit like a bomb.
The crowd around them instantly erupted into whispers.
Vanessa Cruz's face turned ugly.
Isabella continued, her voice filled with unbearable humiliation. "My mother is already paralyzed. She has nothing left… nothing at all!"
Her hands tightened on Vanessa Cruz's shoulders, her eyes pleading. "Why do you still want to force us to hand over the Cruz family's shares, too?"
Vanessa Cruz's eyes widened.
She tried to pull away, but Isabella's grip was like iron.
