Chapter 714 Born From a Marriage!
Eliza never imagined in her wildest dreams that Cora would turn out to be William’s daughter.
She thought that Cora could only rely on the Lane family.
That’s why she dared to bully Cora frequently after the Lane family went bankrupt.
She believed that even if Cora could cure cancer, her financial situation was not as prosperous as hers, and she could be bullied without consequences.
But little did she know that Cora had transformed into William’s daughter….
However, if Cora was indeed William’s daughter, it explained why he had spent money like water to book a top VIP ward for her in the hospital, why Cora appeared at the Yoris family’s banquet today, and why she was dressed so ostentatiously.
“Mr. William Yoris, I genuinely didn’t know that Cora is your daughter, which led to my misunderstanding of her relationship with
you. I..”
Although Eliza panicked, she wasn’t foolish. She quickly started to defend herself based on the misunderstanding.
As long as slfe downplayed her mistakes, she believed she could be forgiven.
Perhaps in the future, she could leverage her status as Cora’s former classmate to establish a relationship with the Yoris family.
By then, the Vega family might value her more, and she wouldn’t have to be restricted by her status as an illegitimate daughter
But just as Eliza was calculating her next move, she suddenly received a slap across her face.
When she looked up in astonishment, she saw Sara coldly staring at her.
“Someone who isn’t worthy of respect dares to slander Cora? You were born as an illegitimate child, thinking that everyone in this world is like your father, unable to control their desires and giving birth to someone like you?”
Sara’s words not only scolded Eliza but also scolded her father.
However, Eliza didn’t dare to show any displeasure because no matter whether it was Sara or the Moore family and the Yoris family behind her, they were all forces that the Vega family couldn’t afford to offend, let alone herself as an individual.
“Mrs. Sara Yoris, I really didn’t intentionally slander Cora…” Eliza apologized and begged for forgiveness while bowing.
But Sara couldn’t even hear what she was saying.
Not just Sara, William and his brothers couldn’t bear it either.
Arnold spoke up directly, “We organized this banquet today, claiming it was to gather people in the industry and have some fun. But in fact, we were worried that Cora was too low–key and might refuse our offer to throw her a birthday party. That’s why we said so.”
Arnold also walked slowly to Cora’s side and carefully held her hand.
“Moreover, besides throwing Cora a birthday party tonight, I also wanted to take this opportunity to tell everyone that Cora is the pearl of our family that was lost outside. From the moment she returned home, she became the only heiress of the Yoris family, a treasure for all of us. Anyone who bullies Cora is an enemy of the Yoris family.”
At the same time, Byron also stepped forward with Martin in his arms and took Cora’s other hand.
“I want to announce something as well. Cora and I got married four years ago, so Martin is our legitimate child, unlike certain individuals who are bastards and try to shift blame onto others.”
Eliza was speechless.
After Byron made this announcement, he pinched Cora’s hand.
Since their consecutive appearances and the revelation of her identity, Cora was dumbfounded.

Born From a Marriage!
She had been so busy during this period that she even forgot her own birthday.
And she didn’t expect that Byron would secretly help her hold a birthday party with the Yoris family.
Looking at the envious and jealous gazes of the wealthy women in the crowd, she didn’t know how to react.
It wasn’t until Byron squeezed her hand that she turned around and smiled at him.
He reciprocated with a smile after seeing a hint of happiness on her face and then announced, “Cora and I will have a formal wedding ceremony soon, and I hope you all can honor us by witnessing our love together…”
