Chapter 5
The entire ballroom fell silent instantly, with all eyes suddenly fixed on me.
Antonio and Linda, sitting in the front row, turned to see me and their faces went pale with fear.
“Did you hear what she just said?
“Not clearly, but I think she said Emily is her daughter.”
“Doesn’t that make her Nina’s father’s mistress? How dare a homewrecker show up here!”
“Exactly, she’s so shameless. Nina’s mom is right here. Let’s see how the wife deals with her!”
The principal standing beside me desperately wanted to silencel these students, knowing that with each word they spoke, my investment might decrease.
He anxiously began, “You all…”
Before he could finish, I raised my hand to stop him.
“Go on,” my voice echoed through the ballroom. “Say whatever you want to say. I’m listening.”
I was desperate to know what kind of vile words Emily had been hearing at school.
Hearing this, Ninaglared at me, “Who do you think you are? Who

allowed you to come here?
“You make me sick. Didn’t my dad tell you to manage our company? You’ve got some nerve showing up at my
party.
“Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? Are you here asking to be insulted?
“When my mom beats you up later, your daughter will be even more of a laughingstock at school!”
Emily’s head hung lower and lower, but she didn’t dare leave.
Hearing Nina lead the mockery, the other students chimed in.
“Nina is so fierce, insulting the mistress like that.”
“Isn’t she just a lowly mistress? Mr. Kaufman is so generous to let her manage the company.”
“No wonder she gave birth to trash like Emily.”
They laughed and joked while looking at me, completely oblivious to Linda in front of them, who was lowering her head and tugging at Antonio’s clothes, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
Antonio was equally uncomfortable, never expecting me to show up and expose his lies in front of everyone.
If I revealed the truth about their identities, his plans would be ruined.
Antonio desperately tried to signal Nina with his eyes, but she completely misunderstood.

She looked at Antonio innocently, “Dad, I’m doing the right thing, aren’t I? I know she’s here to embarrass you, but don’t worry, all the students know her lowly status. They’re used to it.”
Antonio wanted to rush up and stop her.
“If she doesn’t behave, just cut off her medical expenses. She’s just a mistress after all.”
Antonio gritted his teeth in anger took a deep breath, and stood up to walk towards me.
He grabbed my hand and tried to pull me outside, “Come on, let’s talk outside. The kids are all here.”
“Talk outside?” I forcefully shook off his hand. “Antonio, what are you nervous about? Afraid I’ll expose something?”
He visibly panicked, stammering without being able to form words.
Before Antonio could speak, Nina rushed down from the stage.
She pointed at me and yelled, “My dad’s being nice to you, what are you doing? Are you trying to force my mom out of her position? Know your place!”
I slapped her across the face. “You’re the one who doesn’t know your place!”
