Chapter 168 Home Sweet Home

• “That inheritance rightfully belongs to Alessandro and our children. I’m claiming it because Alessandro had children before he turned thirty. Gia and Maximo are five years old and they are his children,” Mia declared, meeting Maria’s glare with a challenging gaze.
• Maria clenched her teeth in annoyance as envy burned in her chest. However, she kept her voice firm and nonchalant. "Do you think you can simply claim that your children are Alessandro's, and we will believe you?!" she taunted. "No way! My son may fall for your lies, but not me. And I won't let him be fooled by your enchanting deceit," Maria declared as she stepped forward, placing herself between Mia and Alessandro.
• Mia was dumbfounded by the fake concern her stepmother-in-law was feigning. This was the same woman who had killed her own son, and now she seemed more worried about Alessandro, who was merely her stepson. Mia wasn’t buying it. She stared at Alessandro, who quickly stepped aside from Maria and came to stand beside her.
