Tong Jiayin's emotions were in turmoil.
She believed her father and the woman's plan had no future.
She didn't want to be complicit in their scheme. In fact, she even contemplated exposing her mother to the truth.
While she envied Gu Yang's connection with the Gu family, she also saw a glimmer of hope.
The love she felt for her mother all these years was genuine. Besides, that woman didn't even owe her a debt.
But her brother had branded their birth as an original sin. If her mother discovered the truth, with her pride, she wouldn't tolerate their existence.
To her, they were a disgrace—a testament to her husband's infidelity and the years she spent raising another woman's child.
Tong Sinian and Tong Jiayin were born through IVF using Tong Rao's body.
At the time, Tong Rao was unable to conceive naturally due to injuries, so she opted for IVF with her husband, Zuo Yuanyi.
