Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2691: Chapter 1928: Let’s End This Here!

Levante spoke grandly about these matters, while Bai Xiaosheng listened without displaying any emotion.

Jim also appeared calm, seemingly unfazed by anything.

However, Lorna’s face changed repeatedly at these words—shock, anger, humiliation, confusion, desolation—in what seemed like a short span of time, she experienced every flavor of human emotion.

Being an illegitimate daughter, her father didn’t wish for her existence; this was the most despairing story of all.

Originally, she thought this would be a heartwarming scene of familial recognition, but unexpectedly, even as Maiyous’s illegitimate daughter, she remained an insignificant existence.

Her only value was merely as a connecting opportunity for two influential families.

Thinking of these things, Lorna felt a deep melancholy and her gaze turned confused and desolate.

Beside her, Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying listened with rising indignation.

Levante smiled and said to Bai Xiaosheng, ”Mr. Bai, now that you know Miss Lorna’s value, we can discuss matters concerning our two families...”

”How can you treat her like this!”

Before Levante could finish speaking, a voice of angry reprimand came from the side.

Lorna’s hand was gently clasped by Lin Weiwei, warm and calming. That shout of unable-to-hold-back anger had come from Weiwei.

Lorna couldn’t help but look at Lin Weiwei, feeling the warmth of her hand, inexplicably close to tears. The kind of crying that was unrestrained, loud.

Lin Weiwei’s gaze held a hint of anger, fixed on Levante and Jim.

To her, this conversation had gone wrong; it was wrong from the start.

They didn’t care about Lorna’s feelings, treating her like an object. Like an item that a wealthy family had lost, originally dispensable, only gaining value because another wealthy family picked it up, now able to serve as a token for two families to bond.

But people should not be treated as objects!

Family ties shouldn’t be like that!

Lin Weiwei’s fiery nature couldn’t tolerate such a flawed perspective.

Levante frowned and glanced at Lin Weiwei, in his mind she seemed to be a follower of Bai’s.

How can she be so indiscreet and presumptuous!

But seeing Bai Xiaosheng silent, Levante suppressed his temper and smiled lightly, ”We regard Miss Lorna as a lady of our family. This time we’re inviting her back, she will have good treatment and a good life, except—she cannot acknowledge her roots and heritage!”

Jim also smiled at Lorna, but his gaze was calm and indifferent, with no semblance of sibling kinship.

”Then what difference is there from bringing back a bird, a dog to raise!” Lin Weiwei gritted her teeth and said.

”No difference, your description is extremely accurate.” Levante seemed to appreciate her comment, nearly applauding Lin Weiwei’s words.

This demeanor almost made Lin Weiwei furious.

Lorna also bit her lip, her complexion pale, her heart already cold as ice, holding no attachment to this supposed kinship.

”For the family, isn’t that personal value? Comparatively, I might just be worth a bit more.” Jim seemed to want to tell a joke.

Unfortunately, there was nothing funny about it.

Levante, seeming tired of fussing with a young lady, turned to Bai Xiaosheng, ”Let’s get to the point, Mr. Bai, regarding cooperation...”

This time, it was Bai Xiaosheng who ignored him.

Bai Xiaosheng addressed Lorna gently, ”Miss Lorna, would you like to meet your biological father?”

Lorna bit her lip, shaking her head resolutely.

Levante frowned at Bai Xiaosheng, dissatisfied with his choice to converse with a seemingly insignificant ”lady.”

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng had already turned to Levante with a smile and stood up courteously—

”Since Miss Lorna does not wish to return, I believe this conversation should end here!”
