However, at such a moment, my best friend arrived late, holding Bryan’s hand.
Amid the puzzled and surprised gazes of the crowd, she took out a paternity test report and said to me loudly, “Flora, to tell you the truth, Bryan and I have been in love for a long time and had a daughter at the same time as you.”
“The hospital gave us the wrong baby back then. Briela is actually the biological daughter of me and Bryan. You have been taking care of her for so many years. Now, it’s time to give her back to me.”
Hearing this, there was an uproar at the
scene.
“Isn’t this Lauryn Hansen, Ms. Renner’s best friend? She actually got into a relationship with Ms. Renner’s husband and gave birth to a daughter?”
“The key is that Lauryn’s daughter died just

after she was one month old. If the hospital did give them the wrong baby, wasn’t the one with Lauryn Ms. Renner’s biological daughter?”
“That’s so despicable. Not only did she steal someone else’s husband, she also killed her daughter. Isn’t that the end of the world? Laury is such a jerk!”
“Moreover, Ms. Renner just transferred all her share and assets to her daughter’s name, then she recognized her daughter here. Is this what a human being does?”
Amidst the fierce condemnation from. everyone, Bryan spoke confidently,
“In the first half of my life, I was bound by marriage. As a man, I tried hard to
convince myself that I should be responsible for this marriage.”
“But I am also a human being. In countless difficult nights, I kept asking myself, is this really the life I want?”
“Flora comes from a good family. She treats

me and my daughter very well, but what I truly love in my heart is Lauryn.”
“I just want to pursue my true love, is that wrong?”
“Marriage is for happiness and so is
divorce. Marriage should not be a shackle.
for me to pursue true love. I hope everyone
blesses us!”
Bryan’s every word was sad and every sentence was firm and resounding.
Seemingly an unhappy person in a marriage, breaking away from the secular world and pursuing true love.
I did not bother with him, but looked straight at my daughter beside me and asked, “What are you thinking?”
Briela carefully read the equity transfer agreement in her hand and then spoke calmly, “Mom, this is the last time I’ll call you this.”
“Although you have raised me for more

than twenty years, you are not my biological mother after all.”
“Blood is thicker than water. I hope you
won’t stop our family of three from reuniting.”
Seeing this, Lauryn said proudly, “Flora, please save your face. Don’t rely on other people’s daughters just because your short- lived daughter died early!”
Bryan also took out a divorce agreement. and a bank card, then threw them in my
face.
“Let’s get a divorce now while everyone is
here.”
“There are five seven hundred dollars in
this card, which is your hard–earned money for taking care of our daughter and divorce compensation over the years.”
Hearing these words, everyone at the scene was furious.
“As expected, people of the same family

stick together. What’s up with this family of three?”
“That’s right, everyone knows that Ms. Renner has always held her daughter in the palm of her hand. It hurts! After so many years of pampering, she just transferred tens of millions dollars of family assets to her and she turns around and recognizes
someone else as her mother?”
“Seven hundred dollars for divorce. compensation, is this just giving money to beggars? How can her husband have the nerve to say that?”
“I can’t stand any outsiders anymore! Ms. Renner, don’t pay attention to this family of animals.”
“That’s right, they’re such
a jerk
The people in the venue spoke up for me and some even offered to help me sue and get my property back.
Faced with everyone’s reaction, Lauryn and Bryan remained calm and composed.

It seemed that no matter what happened, they were prepared to deal with.
However, amidst everyone’s righteous indignation, I could not help but smile.
“Okay.”
After saying that, I signed the divorce agreement under the astonished gaze of
everyone.
Seeing this, Lauryn and Bryan were slightly stunned, as if they did not expect me to agree so readily.
They picked up the divorce agreement and equity transfer documents, checked them carefully and only smiled with relief after confirming that they were correct.
As they laughed and forgot themselves, I spoke again, “Since you all gave me such a big surprise….!
“Then I also have a big gift for you too.”
Bryan looked confused and asked, “Big gift? What kind of big gift?”
