Chapter 585

• Madam Emili’s voice was firm as she continued, “The Cooper Family may not be among the top aristocratic clans, but raising two daughters is hardly an issue for us. Why can’t Liza be satisfied with being the second daughter? She should be grateful—she lived in poverty before, and now she’s staying in the Cooper Family’s villa. That alone is a hundred times better than her previous life. So why must she insist on taking Joan’s place the moment she returns?”
• She turned to Grandma Jayce, her tone filled with frustration. “Joan is the most respected young socialite in Luo City. If people find out she isn’t our biological daughter, how will that reflect on the Cooper Family? How will Joan ever hold her head high again?”
• Madam Emili took a deep breath before continuing, “The babies were swapped at birth—so why not just leave things as they are? Liza doesn’t need the title of the Cooper Family’s eldest daughter to live a good life. Everything Joan has, Liza can have too! I won’t treat her unfairly. But why must she fight for status? Why can’t she just be more understanding?”
