Chapter 1232: Chapter 1235: She is just an adoptive daughter, just an adoptive daughter! Chapter 1232: Chapter 1235: She is just an adoptive daughter, just an adoptive daughter! Aidan Lucas walked towards the main table with Lily by his side.
It was only a few steps away, yet he insisted on holding the woman's hand and wrapping his arms around her waist, letting petite Lily lean completely into his embrace.
“She… She is the woman you said was better than me!?” Tania Scott spoke falteringly.
Seeing Lily Redington leaning on Aidan Lucas as they walked over was even more humiliating to her than Nolan Lucas's identity being revealed.
After all, she was Tania Scott, yet in Aidan Lucas's eyes, she wasn't even as good as an adoptive daughter!
This 'woman who is a thousand times better than her' was the very Lily Redington she had always looked down upon!
Tania Scott's pride had always been her identity.
She was the legitimate, only daughter of her generation in the Scott family.
In their generation, whether it was the two aunts or Larry Scott, all had sons.
Aunt Sylvia had originally had a daughter, but she had died young.
Aunt Bella's daughter had gone missing for a while, and given Sylvia and Larry Scott's estrangement, Bella and the Scott family had long been distant. Furthermore, Hannah Ford had been confirmed to be a child of the Coldwell's family, fears that there may have been a mistake when aunt Bella's daughter was brought back after disappearing.
Therefore, no matter how you looked at it, Tania Scott always felt her identity was the most noble and unique, and she was the most cherished.
Not to mention, she was the beloved by Mr. Scott, and by her grandparents more than anyone else.
Let alone that she also had the protection of cousins like Oliver Ford and David Redington.
Yet, not long ago, a Lily Redington suddenly appeared, claiming to be the daughter of aunt Sylvia.
Hmph, just an adoptive daughter, how dare she occupy her position, vying for her family's attention!
The emergence of Lily Redington was the most intolerable affront to Tania Scott.
It's for this reason she had disliked Lily Redington from the start.
The identity and status of the eldest daughter of the Scott family was Tania Scott's source of arrogant pride, now even an adoptive daughter could stand above her, even more unbearable to her than being deceived by Nolan Lucas.
“Yes,” Aidan Lucas admitted without hesitation.
“She is the woman that I, Aidan Lucas, love the most in this lifetime, and the only one I deeply love. She is thousands, no, millions of times better than you… no, that's wrong to say. No one can compare to my Lily, not even worthy of being compared with her.”
“I'm not worthy… How could I not be worthy…” Tania Scott's face showed confusion, unable to accept this answer.
She didn't love Aidan Lucas, but she still cared about his opinion.
Just because she was the proud Tania Scott, a woman whom all men should desire upon seeing.
She could not tolerate the idea of her charm being replaced by someone else.
And she certainly couldn't bear it, that the woman replacing her was just an adoptive daughter!
“You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense–”
Tania Scott suddenly screamed hoarsely, far from the composure expected of an heiress, revealing a crass and horrendous side.
Her beautiful face contorted to the extreme due to her agitation.
“She's just an adoptive daughter, just an adoptive daughter! If it weren't for my aunt taking her in, she'd still be somewhere unknown, living a lowly life. How is she better than me, why…”
Tania Scott didn't care about anything else.
If truth be told, she could put up with Nolan Lucas's deceit, she could put up with Aidan Lucas's indifference towards her, but she could never tolerate her most proud asset being trampled underfoot by an adoptive daughter.
She was the Scott family's one and only treasured gem.
No one could shake her status!
