The Wrong Woman -
Chapter 290
The organization had arranged for the fake Sally to take over Sally Hoffis’s identity. Her mission was tomarry Nathan, thereby infiltrating his life and extracting more secrets.
Having successfully become Sally Hoffis, she was preparing to inherit the Hoffis business. Even if itmeant sharing it with Oliver, she didn’t mind. But the news that Sally wasn’t a Norvanian and couldn’tinherit the property was like a blow to her head.
Oliver hadn’t told her anything about this. Mila revealed this truth so that Sally and Oliver would have afalling out.
“As Nathan’s ex, I considered Ms. Hoffis my love rival, so I
investigated her background. Only to replace out that Ms. Hoffis is not just an immigrant but has changedher citizenship. She’s now a Sunteri. Foreigners have no inheritance rights under Norvanian law,” Milastated calmly.
Loretta couldn’t hold back her anger and yelled at Mila, “You’re full of crap! How could Sally possibly bea Sunteri?”
Mila didn’t doubt that Zach and Loretta would be devastated. T
saw the change in citizenship as treason and ingratitude. That why Mila and her parents had kept it asecret from Zach and Lore for so many years.
Sally panicked. She was madder than Loretta. But she couldn’t show that she didn’t know because shewas pretending to be Sally Hoffis herself. She glared at Oliver and gritted her teeth in frustration.
“Sally, is that true?” Loretta asked.
Sally stayed silent.
“It’s true,” Oliver said.
Loretta was so enraged that she burst into tears. Shaking and staggering, she fell into Sally’s arms.Sally held her up and asked, ” Grandma, are you all right?”
Mila nervously approached to help, but Loretta shoved her away in disgust. “Don’t you touch me!”
Mila withdrew her hand and turned to look at Zach on the bed, only to
see a tear trickle from the corner of his eye. She felt a deep pang of sorrow and let her head hang low.
She wished she could explain things to Zach and Loretta so they would understand that changingcitizenship was not an act of
treason. But she couldn’t do that now to keep them safe.
After being helped into her seat, Loretta pointed furiously at Oliver.” You, Oliver! Sally has been out ofthe country for ten years and is unfamiliar with Norvanian law. And you? Is this on purpose?
“You knew that when her grandpa and I were gone, the will we left behind would be invalid. Theproperty of the Hoffises will then be rightfully yours. Your plan is rather grand, isn’t it?”
“Mom, I never knew you and Dad made wills. My focus is on my medical career, and I don’t have anyinterest in business manageme
Oliver explained calmly.
“Nice try.” Loretta scoffed. “I’m not your dad. You can’t fool me that
easily.”
“Grandma, what do we do now?” Sally was only concerned about the
inheritance.
Mila immediately jumped in, “Ms. Hoffis, you can change your citizenship back to Norvania.”
Sally gave Mila a cold, suspicious stare.
Loretta nodded in agreement. “Yes, $ally, change your citizenship back. Norvanian law do not allowforeigners to have the right of inheritance.”
Oliver’s face became somber, and he looked at Mila as if he were thinking about something.
“Okay,” Sally agreed at once, but she shook her head the next moment. “Grandma, I can’t. The changeof citizenship requires me to go to Sunterland, and I can’t do that.
