Without the support of a family, even breathing would be wrong.
When you had someone backing you up, even if you did something wrong it was alright.
Renee curled up the corners of her lips into a faint smile, “Mr. Zach, you are too kind.”
While the two were chatting and laughing, Felix walked over with Iva in his arms.
“Renee, when you were in Country Z, you lived in Pearson’s house. I thought you were an orphan. I didn’t expect you to be the daughter of the Chairman of the Bosch Group.
“You are really something. You haven’t said a word about such a big thing for more than ten years.
“But it’s okay. When you were in Country Z, your uncle and I took care of you. You didn’t suffer during those years in Country Z.”
Iva let go of Felix, came to Renee and put her arm around her like a good sister.
None of the people present knew Felix and Iva. After this thing, everyone thought that these two people had done Renee a favor.
Renee glared at Iva and pulled her hand away expressionlessly as she responded, “Miss Hawkins, I haven’t seen you for a few months. Your ability to open your eyes and speak has improved.
“Miss Hawkins said that you and Felix took care of me for more than ten years. How did you do that?”
Iva was not angry when she was exposed in public and she still had a faint smile on her face.
“Renee, I know you have some misunderstandings about me and your uncle. You like Felix, but Felix only sees you as a niece and relative. Love and family affection are different. “You are still young, you will definitely meet someone you like in the future. Felix and I are also going to get married. I believe that you will not force your love on him, right?”
Iva told everyone in just a few words that both of them had done Renee a favor and that Renee was committing incest and actually liked her own uncle and even wanted to destroy other people’s marriages.
Judging from the stories of these three people, Renee was a bad guy, while Iva was a considerate Aunt.
Those men who had wanted to pursue Renee before took a few steps back after hearing Iva’s words.
The people present were all well–known figures. They approached Renee partly because of the Bosch Group behind her and partly because of her beauty.
But the prerequisite was that Renee’s experience was clean and innocent and could not tolerate any flaws.

When Iva saw everyone’s reactions, a smug smile crossed her lips.
“Renee, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said these things in front of so many people, but I don’t have any bad intentions. I….
Before Iva could finish her next words, Renee raised her hand and slapped her.
The originally noisy scene suddenly became very quiet.
“You know it’s your fault, but why are you talking so much nonsense?
“Ms. Hawkins, spreading rumors in public will lead to legal consequences. Do you want to try the lawyers of the Bosch Group?”
Although Renee was wearing flat shoes, she was still half a head taller than Iva and she glanced at her with contempt.
Iva was beaten silly. She had never been so humiliated since she was a child.
In her impression, Renee had always been a little white rabbit, the kind that anyone could bully, but this time she actually attacked her in front of so many people.
Seeing that Iva was bullied, Felix quickly stepped forward to support her, then scolded Renee, “Renee, Iva is your elder. Even though you are now the daughter of the Chairman of the Bosch Group, you should still understand the most basic courtesy, right?
“What I regret most now is that I adopted you. If I had known I wouldn’t have adopted you and let you fend for yourself!”
Anger flared up in Felix’s eyes.
Renee’s behavior was not simply a lack of respect for Iva, but also a stepping on.his face. Of course, he could not tolerate this.
The light from the broken glass lamp above her head hit Renee’s face, making her look
even colder.
She curled her lips and said contemptuously, “If I had to choose again, I would rather live on the streets than be adopted by you.”
