NovelAppChapter 2848 “Just remember, if you ever stir up any trouble, don’t you dare say you're my daughter, Imogen. You make your bed, and you lie init.” Madeline slammed the room with a disdainful look on her face, while Imogen sank into the couch, her hand kept rubbing her chest as if to ease the sting of their confrontation.
They'd had their share of arguments over the years, but never had words cut so deep. Especially when Madeline accused her of offering nothing. That truly broke Imogen’s heart.
She might have cfrom humble beginnings, but hadn't she always strove to lift her daughter to greater heights? Otherwise, why would Madeline bear the prestigious surnTanner? Sadly, love had blinded her daughter.
Madeline could only see Nolan; she was oblivious to Imogen’s years of sacrifice. She thought Imogen had never given her everything from the very start.

Regina hadn't even reached hwhen Madeline cknocking on her door.
Having just had a distressing encounter with Nolan, Regina was not in the right headspace to return home, let alone face her family. But she was caught off-guard by Madeline's imperious arrival...
“What are you doing here?” Regina crossed her arms, perching on the edge of the sofa. Still pale from her recent hospital stay, she had the fragile aura of a convalescent beauty.
Madeline's jealousy surged. Standing beside Regina, anyone could tell who the real Tanner heiress was. But why should birthright dictate everything? Madeline couldn't choose her origins, yet she'd worked tirelessly.
Perhaps her efforts only seemed like a joke in Regina's eyes. After all, the privileges. Regina was born into took Madeline years to attain.
And Regina's indifferent demeanor only fueled Madeline's resentment.
“What act are you putting on now? | told you before that | had my eyes on Nolan first. Why do you insist on shamelessly playing the other woman?” Regina was baffled. Madeline's accusations were like a slap in the face-since when was she romantically involved with Nolan? “I don’t know what you're talking about. If you're here to pick a fight, | suggest you turn right around and leave. You're not welchere.” Regina's patience was already thin, and Madeline's crazed antics were the last thing she could handle.
“You think you're fooling anyone? It was you who set the trap at the hotel, wasn't it? You shameless hussy, you just want to wrap Nolan around your little finger. At the dinner, you paraded around like you didn’t care-who were you trying to impress? Of course, if it wasn't for your pretense, how could anyone fall for you?” As Madeline spewed those insults, she was scrutinizing Regina with contempt.
Regina couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity.

Yes, there was a gap between her and Nolan's social standing, which she never denied. But she never believed she wasn't good enough for him.
Beyond her surname of Tanner, she was an independent individual with her own gignity appearance and abilities she had it all. In what world was she not Nolan's equal?
And to be lectured by Madeline-how had she and her mother secured their place in the Tanaer family ?Had they forgotten their own past? What right did she have to claim. Regina was unworthy?
“| wasn't aware that the daughter of a homewrecker had the right to point fingers and tell me I'm not good enough .Regina rose slowly, her ovements languid from her lack of strength. But to Madeline, her calm demeanor was a declaration of disdain. It was clear Regina didn’t regard her at all, and that indifference was the ultimate insult.
