At the Taylor mansion, tensions were rising. Elton had been hastily called back by Riley, alerting him to an unexpected visitor. Upon entering the house, Elton found Jenny, brazenly sitting on the living room sofa as if she belonged there, leaving Hancock Taylor, Elton's father, on the verge of a heart attack from anger.
This wasn't just any girl; it was Jenny, the one who had caused chaos in their lives years ago, nearly ruining Elton's future. Back then, she had schemed to seduce Elton and falsely claimed pregnancy, forcing him to consider marriage. Her deceit was exposed at their engagement party when she had bribed a doctor to stage a miscarriage, almost destroying the Taylor family's reputation.
Riley, Elton's sibling, despised Jenny deeply, viewing her as a stain on their household. Once her plot unraveled, Jenny was expelled from school and vanished, leaving the Taylors to pick up the pieces. They believed the nightmare was over, until now.
Six years later, Jenny had the audacity to return, claiming she had something significant to announce to Elton. Rumors suggested she had climbed the social ladder, now known as Mrs. Wilson, accompanied by bodyguards and luxury cars. It seemed she had finally secured a wealthy old man, Mr. Wilson, to elevate her status.
Riley couldn't conceal their contempt. "Elton, get rid of this shameless woman. We don't need her contaminating our home," they urged as soon as Elton arrived.
Jenny, unfazed, smiled and said, "Don't be so quick to dismiss me. We might end up under the same roof."
