"Because Serena was two-faced, playing the sweet girl to our faces while tormenting Bella behind our backs for a whole six
months. Bella, bless her, turned the other cheek, but Serena just doubled down, tand again! Even after we caught her red-
handed, she pretended to repent while secretly plotting deeper revenge against Bella, to the point of endangering her safety!"
As Serena watched the live stream, her face went as white as a sheet. She couldn't believe Louisa was airing all her dirty laundry in
public like that.
Standing behind her, Dora and June couldn't believe the kind of monster Serena had been. And they wondered, why on earth did
Martin still hold a torch for her?
In her shock, Serena had forgotten that the two maids were still standing there.
"So, we kicked her out of the Collins family over ten days ago. From now on, she's no longer my daughter, Serena Lott, she's not a
Collins!" Louisa declared, causing a massive stir.

The guests were utterly shocked, and even the online crowd watching the unfold couldn't believe their ears.
[Good Lord, was Serena really that horrible? The richest man in town finds his biological daughter, not only does he not kick Serena
out, but he also provides for her as he did before, maintaining a rich girl's standard of living, and she goes and bullies his real
daughter for six months, even putting her life at risk.]
[That's heartless, isn't it? The Collins family raised her for eighteen years, and not only is she ungrateful, but she also bullies the
child they've been searching for all this time. Has she no conscience?]
[It's like a real-life version of The Farmer and the Viper!]
[Kenneth and Louisa are such philanthropists, kind-hearted folks, and to have pushed them to the point of disowning someone.
Serena really must have crossed the line.]
[Serena used to seem so approachable and well-mannered at school, was it all just an act?]
[So, when Shirley mentioned they had dinner with Romeo and his wife. was she actually talking about Arabella, not Serena?]
[They were pleased with Arabella, not Serena, so why did Serena even bother to step in?]
[Yeah, didn't Serena say she and the McMillians had steak for New Year? So vain!]
Soon enough, the top trending topic was:
#TrueHeiressReturnsToTheCollinsFamily #
And the second: #ImpostorHeiressSerenaHeartless#
That's when all the guests realized why Arabella was wearing Shirley's heirloom tiara that was 'not to be passed to
granddaughters," along with the ocean-blue necklace given by Jennifer McMillian.

It turned out she was the McMillians' preferred choice all along!
"So today, we are hosting a homecoming party for Bella to let everyone know that she is the only Collins heiress, my and Kenneth's
one and only daughter!" Louisa announced, as countless streamers fell from above and a thunderous applause filled the room,
welcoming the true heiress back to her rightful place.
Once the applause died down, Kenneth finally announced, "Romeo and my daughter Arabella have been together for half a year
now, and the marriage agreement between the Collins and the McMillian families has never changed."
This revelation caused yet another sensation.
Romeo's fiancée was Arabella.
[It's finally out in the open! | can breathe a sigh of relief! | remember at Yolanda and Zachary's engagement party, there was a
rumor that Grace had been done in by the Murphy family themselves, and at the time, Arabella, being Grace's granddaughter,
stood up for her grandmother's honor. The Murphys claimed she had no right to be there since she wasn't a Murphy by name, but
Romeo stood up for her, affirming Arabella was his fiancée and the rightful heir appointed by Grace, more entitled than anyone
else.]
