This was something that no one expected.
"What is Charlotte trying to do?"
"I thought it was something like a legal notice of warning, but she went straight to court."
"It’s truly unprecedented, suing her own biological father. I think Charlotte will definitely win, considering the power of the Thompson Family, and how rundown the Allen family is now, how could they possibly compete with them?"
"I feel something is not right."
Just as the netizens were buzzing with discussion and observation, Charlotte released another statement. Follow current novels on NoveI(F)ire.net
The entire court trial would be live-streamed.
With this announcement, the entire Weibo platform exploded.
It crashed for hours before it could be restored.
However, the Allen family had already received this news earlier, and the first to panic was Mia Stewart.
"What is Charlotte trying to do?"
She had a reason to be panicked, she would never forget how Scarlett Watson had died.
"What should we do? What can we do?"
Emily Allen looked at Mia Stewart impatiently, but a smirk was already forming at the corner of her mouth.
"Charlotte is just trying to scare us, making a last-ditch struggle, that’s all."
Emily had always been confident that she had won this game.
If Charlotte knew what Emily was thinking, she would probably laugh out loud.
Where did she get such confidence from?
"That year Scarlett..." Mia hadn’t finished her sentence when Emily interrupted her.
"What Scarlett, an old woman who died of her own illness, do you really think she can still be blamed on us? Besides, it’s been so long, what can they possibly find out?"
Despite Emily’s words, Mia was still terror-stricken.
"Daughter, I still think we shouldn’t make this such a big issue."
"We need to blow this up; we need to let the whole world know, only then will Charlotte eventually give us more money," Emily said proudly.
Upon hearing this question, Mia’s expression turned displeased: "In the study."
The thought of what Ethan Allen might be doing in the study made Mia’s teeth itch with frustration.
However, Emily had forgotten that when Ryan Richard had come before, Mia had mentioned this.
She went straight upstairs to the study, but the door was not completely closed, and just as Emily was about to push the door open, she heard murmurs coming from inside.
"Sophia, if I had never met Mia and had Emily, you would still be my wife, Charlotte would still be my daughter, and I would now be the son-in-law of the Thompson Family, you guys were truly the best . . ."
Through the crack of the door, Emily saw Ethan Allen sitting in the chair, continuously stroking a photograph in his hands.
Upon hearing these words, Emily’s expression darkened instantly, and she pushed the door open.
"Who let you in, get out!"
Ethan looked displeased at Emily barging in, and recalling Sophia’s better days, he could not feel any love for the Emily in front of him.
"What’s the use of talking to a dead person’s photo now? You still ended up with my mom, didn’t you?" Emily couldn’t help but retort sarcastically.
Ethan stood up abruptly.
Yet, Emily walked straight up to Ethan, snatched the photograph from his hands, threw it on the ground, and viciously stomped on it.
Just looking at the photo on the floor, seeing those two beautiful faces, Emily felt as though the wounds on her face were throbbing with pain.
