"Mother, it's all Natalie's doing," Clara said immediately. "She planned everything to ruin Briena's entire career."
Sephina turned to Clara and scolded her sharply. "Even if she planned it—was she the one who forced your daughter to film those disgusting scenes? No. It's you who spoiled your daughter and turned her into someone just like yourself. Do you think I don't know how you seduced Jay? Or what kind of woman you were before you married him?"
Clara's legs trembled as she stepped back. "M-Mother…"
"I allowed you into this home only because you were carrying Jay's child," Sephina said coldly. "Natalie wasn't his daughter, so I let his only true child stay here—with a woman like you. But it seems it's time for me to send you back where you came from. And this time, take your daughter with you."
Clara dropped to her knees. "Mother, please don't do this. Briena is Jay's daughter—your granddaughter. Have mercy on her."
