Chapter 531

Noelle knew Pearl genuinely cared about her. Isolated and helpless, she desperately needed someone in her corner. Dropping her guard, she recounted the entire ordeal to her mother.

“If the baby isn’t Finnian’s, but your late husband’s, why on earth would the Sanders family force

you out?” Pearl asked, thoroughly confused. “A child of their bloodline should be incredibly precious to them.”

Noelle had carefully filtered her story, omitting the most damning details.

“Mom, the man I actually love is Finnian. Marrying Rafael was a sacrifice I had to make. Now the entire family knows how I really feel. They’re blaming me for ruining Finnian’s marriage/ so they’re giving me the cold shoulder.” Stripped of her pretenses, Noelle spoke frankly. Blood was thicker than water, after all.

Pearl finally understood the root of the problem. She frowned. “Then who is the woman Finnian actually loves?”

The question pierced Noelle’s heart like a physical blade.

“I… I don’t know,” Noelle stammered, her previous absolute confidence shattered. “I always thought it was me. He always acted like he cared for me. But when his marriage to Kaia fell apart, he blamed me for it.”

A jolt of alarm hit Pearl. She couldn’t help but suspect her daughter was suffering from a massive delusion. Perhaps Finnian’s affection was purely familial, and Noelle had catastrophically misread the signals.

“Mom, I’ve been texting Elaine for three days straight, and she hasn’t replied once. What do I do? Is she disowning me?”

Pearl’s brow furrowed in thought. She had always viewed Elaine as a haughty, upper-crust woman. When Elaine had instructed Noelle to call her ‘Pearl’ instead of ‘Mom, Pearl had assumed Elaine truly saw Noelle as her own daughter. Now, the harsh reality of their lack of blood ties was glaringly obvious.

“Don’t overthink it, Noelle. Mrs. Sanders is probably just busy…”

“She doesn’t do anything!” Noelle laughed bitterly. “She has endless free time from morning until night. She’s deliberately ignoring me. She’s furious that I sabotaged Finnian and Kaia’s marriage.”

Hearing her daughter openly admit to such sabotage, Pearl’s expression froze. “So… what’s your plan now?”

A dark, obsessive ambition flickered in Noelle’s eyes. “I love him. I swore to myself a long time ago that i would be his wife. Fate played a cruel trick on me, forcing me to make the wrong choice. But Rafael’s early death? That’s a sign. It’s the universe giving me a second
