If not, how could Maureen know forcing her to dance would humiliate her?
Hearing this, Maureen couldn't help replying, “Betty, she’s my birth mother.”
Betty froze instantly.
She only knew Zoe was Maureen's adoptive mother, that Maureen had endured hardships-all told by Zoe herself.
But she never knew Maureen's mother was a famous dancer.
Decades ago, Noelle should've been at her peak, not short of money.
Why let others raise her own daughter?
“BOSS, isn’t she way too biased?
In five years working for you, I've never seen her call you once. If she knew the music she’s been dreaming of
was composed by her birth daughter, she'd regret it deeply.”
Maureen gave a self-mocking smile. “No, it’s fine. Let's not talk about it. Go sign the contract with her.”
If Noelle had composed that tune herself, she’d be mocking her relentlessly right now.
It had always been this way since childhood. No matter how well Maureen excelled, Noelle would turn a blind eye
and ridicule her.
Watching the livestream of the mother she'd once longed for dancing, Maureen now found it utterly
meaningless. She closed the stream without hesitation.
Meanwhile.
After ending her broadcast, Noelle saw the comments and looked grim.
Still, she put on a smile and approached Elizabeth dancing gracefully in the studio-a mirror of her younger self.
“Elizabeth, Mom got you the exclusive rights.”

Elizabeth's expression darkened at her approach.

She tossed her phone at Noelle, displaying the recent livestream. “Don’t you know how old you
are?
Making a spectacle of yourself in public? You might not feel ashamed, but | do. Everyone knows you're just Dad's
new wife. My real mom would never embarrasslike this.”
The “mom” she referred to was Barbara.
Noelle nearly revealed the truth then.
But the words died on her lips as Elizabeth interrupted again.
“Don’t do this anymore. | know you mean well, but | hate people gossiping about you.”
Hearing this, Noelle knew her daughter still cared about her, so she swallowed her words.
Elizabeth then linked arms with Noelle.
“Mom, | looked it up online. You have another daughter named Maureen?”
Noelle froze.
Elizabeth continued, “She married Geoffrey?”
The one she truly cared about was Geoffrey. In Karaville, few men could measure up to him.
“I want to meet him. Could you help me?”
Noelle saw right through Elizabeth's intentions.
She also believed only Elizabeth deserved Geoffrey.
“Mom hasn't seen him in ages, but if you want to meet him, I'll make it happen.”
Noelle was convinced that if Geoffrey could develop feelings for Maureen, he’d surely fall for Elizabeth-who
resembled Maureen slightly but surpassed her in every way.
Then she’d remain the Sutton family’s mother-in-law.
“Mom, you're the best.”
Elizabeth shook Noelle’s arm, acting completely different from moments before.
Just after New Year's Day arrived, explosive news broke out.

Geoffrey, head of Corporate Giant, announced transferring all his shares to younger brother Alex, with Alex
taking over Corporate Giant's operations... According to family sources, Geoffrey's health never fully recovered
after the car accident, requiring ongoing hospital care...
The news instantly claimed top three trending topics.
Netizens dug deeper into the bombshell revelation: Geoffrey had an identical twin brother, nearly
indistinguishable to the eye.
The Sutton family now bitterly regretted being outmaneuvered by Heather.
Alex was once a sickly person who nearly died years ago. Sent abroad for emergency treatment, he spent over a
decade recovering. Who would have thought he’d pull through?
Now he stood before everyone.
Likely, Geoffrey had been impersonated by Alex all along.
Yet Alex now held core control of the company with Geoffrey's shares, free from health concerns. Since Corporate
Giant remained the Sutton family enterprise, outsiders could hardly object.
Maureen and others saw the report during breakfast.
At that moment, she completely believed Wayne's words from yesterday.
When she glanced at Geoffrey again, the man showed no change in expression, calmly holding a soup spoon
while eating congee.
Maureen still relented and turned off the TV.
Mrs. Ingram whispered in surprise, “How strange is their High Society? Can sons just be replaced like that?”
Though she disliked Geoffrey, she didn’t want to mock him over this.
“This is my first thearing about it too,”
Maureen replied.
Just when they thought the matter was settled, an unexpected visitor arrived that afternoon..
Heather sat on the sofa, surveying the dilapidated surroundings before her gaze landed on Geoffrey's bedroom-
so crude and simple.
Her heart ached for her son.

During his initial amnesia period, Geoffrey had been utterly listless, responding only to Maureen while showing
no interest in anyone else.
Heather genuinely feared he might waste away!
