Chapter 288 This Is Not Over (2/2)

”She may not have the final say in the Shi family, but she has been making my sister miserable since she married your son. Since Nina doesn't live well in your family, I'll take her back to C Island where she belongs.”

”What? No!” Sam's lower lip quivered. ”Nina's my daughter-in-law. She can't just leave.”

Leon replied calmly, ”The woman legally listed as your son's wife is Nina, a resident of Spring City, not the princess of C Island. So she is not officially your daughter-in-law.”

Nina was stunned.

'My brother really did his homework. He had us thoroughly investigated,'

She could not be considered as John's legal wife.

”Alas! It was a good marriage!” An old artist standing next to Sam sighed and shook his head. ”Your daughter is really thoughtless. What does she get from wrecking a marriage? You really should pay more attention to her. She has to stop meddling in other people's business.”
