Chapter 1577 The huge secret that Graham revealed shocked the Fordhams, but it was also very devastating to Olivia.
She had spent so much tlooking for her family, but she found them at a twhen she least expected it.
In the past, she lamented how hard the Fordhams' situation was. When she realized that they were her family, she felt as if a knife had been stabbed into her chest.
Olivia slowly slid out of Ethan's embrace until she slumped to the ground, tears still flowing.

The shock was too great for her to bear. So, she passed out.
"Liv!" Ethan carried Olivia in his arms and left in a hurry.
Ethan felt pained as he looked at Olivia, who was lying on the bed with her brows furrowed. She had already suffered a lot. He didn't expect the family she was searching for to be in such a terrible state.
Willow stayed by her side with a concerned expression.
Ethan said gently, "Mom is fine. She's just too tired. She fainted because of shock." The ridiculous farce back at the Fordham residence was still going on. The sending-off ceremony for Douglas had becthe stage for the Fordhams to argue with each other.
Graham seemed to be at an advantage, but he was still causing the family's reputation to take a hit.
Jacqueline was panicking. She drove to an ancient villa before daybreak.
There was a murder of crows perched on top of the villa. Their cawing made the dark atmosphere even creepier.
There were srose bushes growing on the dilapidated walls, which brought slife to the seemingly desolate place.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDawn was approaching. The sunlight cut through the darkness and shed slight on the desolate location.
The sound of a lonely piano piece rang through the empty villa as Jacqueline rushed up the stairs with an anxious look on her face.
She opened the door to the rooftop with a loud bang. A woman sat before the piano, her silhouette looking very lonely.
The wind blew at Jacqueline's hair. "Mom, schanges to the situation are affecting our plans." The woman played the final note of the piece before turning around slowly, revealing her face that had been damaged by acid.
Even though Jacqueline had seen the woman's face countless times over the years, she still couldn't get over how horrifying it looked.
The woman could see the fear in Jacqueline's eyes right away. She grunted and asked, "What happened?" "Everything was going according to plan. The Fordham family was in shambles. Swere dead while others were heavily injured. They were a mess. But | didn't expect David not to be Douglas’ biological son.
"Now that Douglas is dead, the others want to drive US out of the family. If this happens, our plans will be completely ruined." Jacqueline had already plotted to destroy the Fordhams from within. That way, she would be the only person who could take control of the family.
The family's massive fortune would have been hers for the taking. But the revelation that David wasn't Douglas’ son cout of nowhere.
If David weren't Douglas’ son, it would mean none of David's offspring were actually Fordhams. How could she compete for the family's fortune like that? The woman smashed her fist on the piano. She narrowed her eyes. "It must be Brandon. That bastard put one over us!" "Mom, what do we do now? Those idiots won't even let US go to Douglas’ funeral. We definitely won't get a cut of the family's fortune. When the lawyers get involved, we'll lose all the assets we have now!"
