Chapter 1

On our thirtieth wedding anniversary, I received a cancer diagnosis on the very day we were meant to have our make-up wedding, while my supposedly “working overtime” husband, my child, and my older brothers celebrated the fake daughter’s birthday.

The fake daughter wore the diamond ring I waited thirty years to receive, and her so-called simple birthday party was celebrated more lavishly than my wedding.

Everyone gathered around her, like stars revolving around the moon.

After she blew out the candles, she smiled and said, “Ezekiel, isn’t today the day you and Heather get married? You brought your brothers and Jaxon here to celebrate my birthday. If Heather knew, she would probably die from anger.”

My husband mockingly laughed. “She’s already at her age, yet Heather Windsleigh is still fantasizing like a child. It’s truly absurd. From the beginning, I never agreed to redo the wedding; it was nothing more than her delusion.”

My son looked even more upset. “My mom should look at all the wrinkles on her face; it’s just awful. If Aunt Gwynne were my mom, that would be great.”

My two older brothers kept nodding.

Looking at the ridiculous scene in front of me, I gripped the cancer report tightly.

So this marriage had already become a joke thirty years ago.

I grabbed my phone and called the people at Vellaro.

“Withdraw all of Vellaro’s investment from the Beaumont Corporation, and make sure it’s done within a week.”

This was the first gift I gave Ezekiel Beaumont and the rest.

As for the second present, I glanced at the cancer results I was holding and smiled coldly. My self-righteous husband still didn’t realize that he was the one who had cancer.

“Is this the real estate agency? I’m selling the villa on Mountainside Road, but I want you to get a buyer in one week.”

The person on the phone accepted immediately.

This house was the place Ezekiel and I had lived in for thirty years, and I was the one who paid for it completely.

At that time, the Beaumont Corporation was facing a crisis. After marrying Ezekiel, I used Vellaro’s funds to help the Beaumont family and also purchased this house, claiming it was my dowry from the Windsleigh family.

In fact, when I married Ezekiel, the Windsleigh family gave me nothing at all.

After all, in their eyes, it was because I came back that they had to send away the fake daughter, Gwynne.

Inside, the birthday party kept going.

Tears covered Gwynne’s eyes as she lightly placed her hand on the hands of Ezekiel and his son.

“All these years, if it weren’t for you, your son, and my older brothers looking after me, I really don’t know what would have happened to me. At that time, I also couldn’t follow the marriage deal……”

Ezekiel lightly brushed away the tears on her face, his gaze filled with obvious love.

“Don’t say that. If Heather hadn’t forced you to leave, you would have definitely stayed and shared hardships with me. I never blamed you.”

When I heard this, my eyes went wide.

Back then, it was clearly Gwynne who hadn’t wanted to marry into the bankrupt Beaumont family, and she had run away from the Windsleigh family in the middle of the night!

I had thought that when they found me and brought me home, it would be the start of a happy life.

But in the end, I was tossed into the Beaumont family like useless debris to cover the marriage agreement Gwynne rejected.

And now, they placed every blame on me!

My son rushed to say, “Aunt Gwynne, you are the only mother in my heart. Today is your birthday, don’t pay attention to that old woman.”

My son’s words left me cold and shaken.

Ever since he was young, my son had leaned on me, yet as he got older, he had become more and more irritated by me.

He would even shout things out whenever I tried to correct him.

But it never crossed my mind that the mother he held in his heart was actually Gwynne.

In that moment, the world spun, and I nearly collapsed right there.

Seeing the warm and happy scene in front of me, I pressed my nails into my palm to stay calm and turned to go.

“Older sister? Why are you here? Were you following Ezekiel?”

At that moment, Gwynne’s voice suddenly sounded behind me.
