Marilyn covered her face and looked up at her father in disbelief.
Seeing her sorrowful eyes, Ahmad’s anger only intensified. He said directly, “That is your sister, and you will not speak of her with disrespect!”
Large tears immediately fell from her eyes. She straightened up and said, “I have never lived with that so-called sister. What kind of sister is she? And what kind of father are you? When something happened to our family when I was a child, you only took her with you and left me at the nanny’s house. Do you know how that felt?”
“You only love her, you don’t love me at all!”
Ahmad laughed angrily, “What do you understand about the situation back then? When we had to choose one, it was your sister who volunteered to endure hardship with us. Without her, you wouldn’t have the good life you have now!”
“I would rather endure hardship than live in her shadow. If she were still alive, I wouldn’t be the one inheriting the Ellison family.” Marilyn retorted, unleashing years of pent-up grievances.
“Heh…” Ahmad shook his head, extremely disappointed. “If she were still alive, she would never be as rebellious as you!”
Marilyn, with tears in her eyes, said, “In any case, Father, you must not help that usurping woman. Remember clearly, her name is Callie, not Maevelyn.”
Although Ahmad was angry, he took Marilyn’s words seriously and knew Callie wasn’t Maevelyn.
Marilyn was trembling all over at this moment. Reflecting on her own words, she felt an extreme sense of irony.
In the years since Maevelyn went missing, the Ellison family had never given up searching for her. No matter what method they used, there was always a note: Maevelyn, who went missing, had a red cloud-shaped birthmark on her back.
During this time, many people tried to impersonate her. They deliberately created a birthmark but didn’t know the exact location, so the Ellison family could easily tell if it was real or fake.
Marilyn had seen a photo of Maevelyn’s birthmark and remembered it vividly.
She never expected to see it again on Callie’s body!
Yes, how could there be such a coincidence? It was one thing to look alike, but even their birthmarks were the same.
Marilyn tried hard to calm down but couldn’t. It felt like a nuclear explosion in her mind.
Callie turned out to be the long-lost Maevelyn!
Her sister…
It wasn’t that Callie took what belonged to her; those things were rightfully hers!
Realizing this, Marilyn stood up in a panic and took out her phone to make a call.
No, this secret must not be known by anyone. Callie hadn’t come back to the Ellison family to reclaim what was hers all these years. It meant she probably didn’t know the truth herself!
After Callie’s accident last time, the reason Baxter fell so quickly was partly because Ahmad secretly helped Nelson.
Just looking alike had made Ahmad help openly and secretly. She couldn’t imagine what would happen if he knew Callie was Maevelyn.
The call connected, and the person on the other end respectfully addressed her as Miss Ellison.
“Help me investigate someone. Callie’s father has woken up, right? Make sure to dig up his old history!”
After hanging up this call, Marilyn quickly made another one. “Mother, could you please put in a good word for me with Father? I’m willing to come home and take over the family business.”
Her tone was coquettish, but her eyes were filled with unprecedented ambition.
