Chapter 597 Megan felt a storm raging within her heart. Her secret was out. Everyone in the Stirling family was in on it.

It had to be that snake, Aurelia, spreading lies and sullying her name.

“Melissa, did Aurelia fill your head with nonsense? Don't believe a word she says. Ever since Leopold dumped her and married me, she's been bitter, trying to drag my name through the mud. Whatever she told you, don't buy it." Although Melissa had her doubts about Aurelia's words, it seemed far-fetched that she would link Megan to some criminal organization without reason.

"If you've done nothing wrong, no amount of mudslinging can touch you,” Melissa countered, "Innocence shines through lies." Megan clenched her teeth in secret frustration, “Did Aurelia tell you that I've got ties with that criminal organization? Do you honestly think I'd do something like that? I've been away for six years because of amnesia, not because | was gallivanting with criminals. Aurelia's out to pin this on me, to make sure Kane secures the inheritance.” Melissa fell silent.

Deep down, she wanted to believe Megan. But the existence of the AK Group was a fact, and the police had even set up a special task force.

“Whatever the case, you can't be caught dead with that sort of crowd. The Stirling family would never open the doors to you then." Megan was nervous.

Aurelia claimed to have evidence against her, and Megan needed to know if it was a bluff.

"I'm an Alcott heiress. | don't need to join any criminal organizations." Melissa replied, “If you're thinking of using that group to secure your spot as Mrs. Stirling, think again. It could endanger the child.

The Stirling family have a strict policy against underworld connections." In Megan's eyes, if Leopold only had the child she bore, her alleged ties to the AK Group wouldnt matter. He'd never cast aside his own child.

That was why she needed the AK Group to eliminate Leopold's children, especially Kane.

Without their help, she feared being usurped by the other seductresses circling Leopold.

“I'm cleaner than Aurelia by a mile. She's the one who cheated with Arnold and bore his child" Melissa interjected, "You're out of the loop. An affair with an outsider and an illegitimate child would be a death knell. But within the Stirling family, it's a different story. They don't frown upon marriages among in-laws. The intention is to preserve the wealth within the family. That's why Leopold and my mother forgave her." Megan was shaken to the core.

The Stirlings and their archaic rules, and when she became the matriarch, she'd change it all.

"It seems like the Stirlings have more rules than any other elite family” she observed.

Melissa shrugged. "Rules make a house stand. We're old money, not some nouveau riche. Many families can't sustain their wealth past three generations. Look at the Stirling family, we have been wealthy for many generations. It's because of our strict codes.” Megan scoffed, “Hasn't anyone thought about updating those antiquated rules? Like the one about polygamy.

It's just unfair to the women." Melissa sighed, "Without that rule, do you think men would be faithful? It's an impossible expectation.. Which tycoon doesn't have a string of mistresses? Even your father has his share. Our family rules, at the very least, protect the status of the wife and legitimate children. No one's interested in changing that." “And what about the second wives like me?” Megan grumbled, discontent, "We deserve protection too." mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
