Unbeknownst to her, in recent years, due to Laura's lack of authority, the “Mrs. Bryant” within the Bryant
family’s business holdings was in fact Liza, the elderly Mrs. Bryant!
Upon her return to the Bryant residence, Marina couldn’t contain her excitement. Before she even spotted Laura,
she exclaimed, “Mom, the test results are out! There's no blood relation. Marco is indeed an illegitimate child!”
Laura quickly shushed Marina, fearful of alerting Liza. She then grabbed the test report from Marina's grip, her
smile expanding with sheer delight.
With a combination of caution and anticipation, she broke the seal on the report, seemingly eager to validate the
news and soothe her racing heart.
However, as she unfurled the report, Laura froze.

The ninscribed on the document was not hers but belonged to Liza, the elderly Mrs. Bryant.
And beneath it, a particularly prominent line stated, “No blood relationship confirmed!”
Illegitimate Child
Laura’s eyes widened in shock as she hastily unfolded the entire report, glancing at it over and over in disbelief.
After verifying the information several times, she was certain that she hadn't misread the top n- it was
indeed Liza's. Laura's hands trembled with exhilaration, and she broke into unrestrained Laughter.
Marina, puzzled and bewildered, couldn't comprehend why Laura suddenly seemed so overjoyed. Just as she was
about to ask, Laura handed her the report.

Her voice shaking with thrill, Laura urged, “Marina, read this! Whose nis on it?”
As Marina took the report and read through it, Laura excitedly muttered, “I had always presumed Marco was the
illicit child of your father and another woman. But surprise! He's actually an unrelated child to the Bryant
family!”
Marina was struck dumb with shock, taking a few moments to digest the revelation. An overwhelming mix of
excitement and disbelief took hold of her.
Marco wasn’t a Bryant at all!
Unbeknownst to her, she had stumbled upon an even more invaluable piece of information!

Liza might have tolerated and even defended Marco as an illegitimate child based on the belief that he was still
a part of the Bryant lineage.
But once it cto light that Marco had no familial ties to the
Bryants, Liza would no longer be able to feign ignorance!
Marina grasped the weight of this revelation. Laura’s eyes narrowed with satisfaction, quipping, “That old witch
thinks she’s invincible, but what good is her power now? She's becan old fool, unknowingly letting an
unrelated child control the Bryant family.”
Laura pondered deeper. If Marco had no ties to the Bryant family,
Marina would be the only rightful heir. Even if Liza held sgrievances against them, she would be compelled
to back them up to avoid the Bryant family’s Legacy from falling into the hands of strangers!
Being a stalwart for the Bryant family, Liza would never allow such an incident to transpire.
