Chawick barked, “I killed your father with my own hands! I had your mother killed by someone! And as for you… Do
you really believe I am your savior?”
Chadwick gazed at Jolene with pity and added, “End the pregnancy, go to college, and lead a normal life.”
Jolene had always believed Chadwick was her savior, but now she realized he was her enemy. She couldn’t believe
her eyes.
“You lied to me! You lied to me!” she cried out.
Chadwick looked at Jolene with disdain. “Jolene, did you really think I didn’t know whose child you’re carrying? Why
do you think I wanted you to terminate it? I don’t want our child. We have a deep-seated grudge, understand?”
Jolene’s legs gave way, and she collapsed.

Liora wept while Mandy was shocked by the sudden twist.
She had followed X’s instructions to bring down the Pendletons, but X hadn’t informed her that these two Pendleton
men were involved in drug production and trafficking!
X also hadn’t revealed that Mandy and Chadwick were siblings from the same parents!
Oliver absorbed the chaos—Liora’s sobbing, the lost look in Jolene’s eyes, and the panic among the guests…
Suddenly, his phone rang.
“Selene,” he said.
Selene was in her car, holding her phone and watching the surveillance footage on her tablet. She asked, “What did
your brother mean just now?”
“According to our investigation, Chadwick isn’t your son. He’s Richard and that woman’s son. They abandoned your
child in an orphanage…”
Selene’s vision dimmed for a moment. She steadied herself and asked hoarsely, “When did you find out?”
“My brother just received this information,” Oliver reassured her. “Selene, don’t be too devastated. We’ll find your
child together.”
“My child… is not Chadwick?” she asked.
Selene and Richard had resorted to in vitro fertilization to conceive, as Richard had a medical condition preventing
natural conception. This meant it was all a scheme, from their relationship’s start to Richard’s illness and the birth
of their child!
Oliver fell silent.

Selene chuckled gently. “It’s comforting to know he’s not my child. The pocket watch holds evidence of Richard’s
crimes I’ve collected over the years.”
“Selene!” Oliver comforted her. “Don’t feel too upset.”
“Upset?” Selene laughed. “I’m more than happy!”
It explained why Chadwick never seemed like a Cassell. He wasn’t biologically related to her.
“Oh, and I just checked the surveillance. Bradley took Esther!” Selene frowned. “Was this also part of your plan?”
Oliver admitted, “Bringing down the Pendletons was part of the plan, but… Bradley taking Esther was not.”
Selene didn’t seem bothered. “Understood. If you have any information about my child, please inform me.”
“Alright.”
Selene hung up and headed to find Tanya, a formidable divorce lawyer. Her only goal now was to divorce Richard
and make him lose everything!
