"That's just terrible!" Joe had a grim face. "Who are you calling an outsider? Nelly has been our daughter for over 20 years, no matter what. How is she an outsider now!?"

"She's an outsider, alright!" Mandy was worked up and screamed, "Kelly is our daughter. It's that b*tch who hurt her!"

"Mandy!" Joe raised his voice. "Don't spew nonsense when you don't have evidence! You're the one who imagined Nelly hurting her!"

"No!" She glared at him. "Nelly insisted on going to the doctor with me that day. She had ill intentions. She wanted to hurt Kelly when I walked away! Otherwise, how would she be abducted when I left the ward? How could it be such a coincidence?"

Joe sighed. Eventually, he said, "You're ridiculous!

"I've made up my mind," he said coldly. "Kelly is ill. Now that she has lost her memory, it's impossible for her to get married or take over the business... So, let Nelly do it!"

Mandy's mind went blank. It felt as if something heavy had fallen from the sky and hit her head.

She stared blankly at Joe for a while. She could not believe her ears.

"W-What did you say?" She asked him, "You want to give the Tanner Group to that b*tch!?"

"That's right!" He rolled his eyes at her and placed his arms behind his back.

Mandy was shaking from the rage.

"Don't you forget this, Joe!" She gnashed her teeth. "The Tanner Group doesn't only belong to you. Without my dowry and my family's power, the Tanner Group would not be one of the four major families! "Sure, sure, sure. It's all thanks to your family!" He was annoyed. "Mandy, can you tell me something else other than this cr*p that you've been telling me for years? Do you think you're successful in life by giving birth to a daughter with a congenital disease!?"

"You..."

Never had Mandy thought Joe would dare to talk to her like that one day.

Throughout their many years of marriage, although he was not the perfect husband, he would listen to her. However, he did this today for Nelly...

She shuddered!

He was so protective of Nelly. Could it be that there were secrets about her?

"Don't look at me like that. I'm just telling the truth!" shouted Joe. "Mandy, we've been married for so many years. You should know me well! I don't want the Tanner Group to die, nor do I want the achievement that I worked so hard for to have another name in the future!

"Although Nelly is adopted, she's a Tanner!" When he said that, he looked away as if he was guilty.

"She's healthy at least. We've trained her since she was young. Even if she can't marry Zephyr, she can definitely marry someone prominent! In that case, the marriage will bring security to our family. "What about Kelly? What else did she do apart from making us worry?"

Mandy could not say a word.

She looked at Joe. She suddenly thought this man was scary, like a stranger that she never knew.

"Hah, so to you, children are your tools?"

"See, you're twisting my words again..."

"You b*stard!"

Mandy raised her hand quickly, and a loud slap landed on Joe's face!

He was dumbstruck. He felt the pain on half of his face.

She did not want to fight with him in the hospital, so she turned around to leave.

As soon as she got home, she saw Nelly walking out with a bright smile. However, she suppressed her smile when she realized it was Mandy.

"Dad!" She only looked at Joe, who was behind, and nodded at him.

Mandy scoffed. "So, Ms. Tanner only has her father in her eyes now and is ignoring her mother?"
