When Becky was seven years old, she was tricked by Janet and left alone in the wilderness. The young Becky ran along the road for a long time until she was found by kind villagers who took her to the police station before she could go home.
In school, Janet spread rumors about Becky to isolate her from her classmates.
Becky’s SAT score was excellent. However, the Mitchell family changed her plans, forbidding her from applying to a prestigious university, and forcing her to attend a subpar college in a remote area.
The most absurd event occurred during Becky’s junior year when Theodore became a vegetable due to a car accident. The Mitchell family, anxious to find a girl for Theodore, pressured Becky to marry him to gain the high–value gifts and project benefits from the Edwards family.
Three years later, after being in a vegetative state, Theodore woke up, and Janet fell in love with him at first sight. Janet knew Theodore was her brother–in–law, but she shamelessly pursued him and naturally asked Becky for a divorce so that she could be with him.
Stacey glanced at the news and quickly read through it. The painful memories buried deep in her heart seemed to have little effect on her now..
But her indifference didn’t mean the majority of netizens felt the same way. These events were exposed by vigilant internet users after Janet’s downfall. They were brought to light, scrutinized by everyone, and dealt with by the hand of justice.
All the netizens were furious. The whole country’s netizens expressed concern for her, and many people privately reached out to comfort her.
Stacey’s messages were filled with concem and love from her fans and netizens. She read them for a long time until Hayden texted her, saying he had something to do that night and couldn’t have dinner with them. He advised them to eat without waiting for him.
Realizing it was already dinnertime, Stacey quickly turned off her computer, stood up, and walked out. She then called her mom for dinner.
Lillian and Kevin were thrilled when they heard it was time to eat. The whole farpily gathered and headed out together, but as soon as they opened the door, they encountered a woman standing outside–Queenie.

Stacey was taken aback, and the smile on her face vanished.
Queenie looked at Stacey and said seriously, “Ms. Carter, can we have a moment alone?”
Debra hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Are we familiar with you? What is there to talk about?” Then, Debra urged Stacey, “Becky, let’s go. Lillian and Kevin are hungry. If you don’t ear now, the babies will cry,”
“I drank milk already!” Kevin quickly shouted, feeling that his grandma was mistaken. Just a little while ago, the majd had prepared milk powder for the children, so they weren’t very hungry.
Debra looked helpless and pinched Kevin’s cheek playfully. “So, Kevin doesn’t want to eat delicious food later?”
“I want to eat it!” Kevin responded anxiously.
“I want to eat it too!” Lillian chimed in eagerly.
Debra snorted lightly and urged, “Since you want to eat, let’s go quickly. Don’t waste time here with irrelevant people.”

Chapter 198
“You… You know who I am right? I’m Hayden’s ex–wife. My name is Queenie. I have a child with Hayden,” Queenie interrupted coldly.
Debra sneered, “So, Ms. Leavey, you stopped us to say something?”

Seeing their arrogant demeanor, Queenie felt anger rise within her and scolded, “Is it so great to be a mistress? Your husband has a mistress, and you’re here pretending to be superior…”
Debra slapped Queenie across the face. “Who is seducing someone else’s husband here? Please understand that Becky and her ex–husband are divorced, and you and Hayden have been divorced for three years! How do you think she can be the ‘mistress‘ you mentioned? On the contrary, when you were still married, you wanted to elope with your sweetheart. In fact, you even considered having an abortion after seven months of pregnancy! What? Now you can’t stay with your so–called true love? That man abandoned you and you’re expecting your ex–husband to accept you again? What kind of man do you think Hayden is? You really think he’ll take in all kinds of rubbish
Queenie was shocked; she couldn’t believe it. She looked up at Debra, her anger boiling over. ‘How dare they hit me? They’ve crossed the line! Queenie thought and felt that as the original wife, she was in the right. Unable to contain herself, she rushed at Debra, attempting to pull her hair and hit her. But she underestimated Debra.
Instead of backing down, Debra reached out and pulled Queenie aside. Queenie stumbled, nearly losing her balance. Fortunately, it was just a little close; after all, Queenie didn’t have any deep grievances with the Carter family, as she had already slapped her back for insulting Becky. Debra felt there was no need to be too harsh on this woman now. After all, Queenie was also Jeremy’s mother, and even for little Jeremy’s sake, she felt some respect for Queenie.
“Don’t mess with us; I’m good at combat skills, Debra warned coldly, her alertness evident.
Queenie blinked in shock, thinking. ‘How could this woman possibly know combat skills? She turned to look at Stacey, bewildered.
Debra remained on guard and stated, “Queenie, you’d better not try to take advantage of my daughter. After Becky divorced, I arranged boxing classes for her. Although she may not be as good as me right now, she’s definitely better than you.”
Queenie’s face changed dramatically, her expression extremely ugly.
Debra was done talking. Becky was soft–hearted, and she feared that if Becky spoke any longer with Queenie, she might hesitate to accept Hayden’s kindness.
“Becky, let’s go,” Stacey said directly, glancing at her daughter.
Stacey nodded and followed her mother.
The maid had a hold of Lillian and Kevin. At that moment, both children couldn’t help but gaze curiously at the strange woman in front of them.
Finally, the family entered the elevator. As the doors closed, Lillian suddenly exclaimed, “Mom, I remembered that aunt looks like Jeremy!”
Stacey didn’t say anything.
Debra remained silent, quietly observing her daughter’s expression. Though Becky didn’t say anything, Debra could feel that Queenie’s presence had stirred something within Becky, causing her heart to once again close off to Hayden, just when it finally seemed like it was starting to open up.
