Troy turned around and saw his cousin, Graham Fordham.He hadn't seen him for a few years, and Graham had grown from a young kid to a superstar in the entertainment industry.The two of them had some bad blood between them. Back in the day, Troy spent one whole year making a wood carving of the Mona Lisa. It was a great project that took great effort for him to accomplish.Graham, who was ten years younger than him, destroyed a part of it when the housekeepers weren't watching out of mischief. His actions caused Troy's work to be incomplete. Troy had planned to take that piece for a competition, so he reprimanded Graham harshly. They were family, but everyone had always felt that David doted on his eldest son the most. The others were less loved. David was angry when he found out about that. He caned Graham and locked him in the private chapel for three whole days.That incident sowed the seed of hatred in Graham. Even though Troy later apologized to him, Graham never accepte

There was a sending-off ceremony for family members of the deceased at night in Zelotria. Olivia hid in the crowd as she looked at the members of the Fordham family.Other than Douglas' offspring, there were also the offspring of his brothers and other branch families. The Fordhams were a huge family.The ceremony was about to begin. David was supposed to be the one to pay his respects first, but since he had already passed, Henley was the one to do it instead. Everyone else went to take a flower of their own. Troy and Sean were wheelchair-bound. So, Jacqueline suggested that she would get the flowers for them.Before she could reach out to get the flowers, someone grabbed her wrist. Graham said, "This ceremony is for family members only. I'm afraid you don't have the right to participate."As soon as he said that, Troy snapped back, "Enough is enough, Graham! We're mourning Grandpa right now. How dare you do this right before him? Do you really want to cause him more trouble e

Sean and Troy looked at each other. The confusion was clear in their eyes. They didn't know anything about this. Even Jacqueline thought it was an outlandish tale."Sean, Troy, did you know about this?"Both of them shook their heads. "I've never heard Dad talk about this before."Jacqueline's plan was at its final stage, but something like this had to happen today. She wasn't about to let other people affect her plan."How can a photo prove anything? Both Dad and Grandpa have passed away. Dad died in a plane crash, and his remains are nowhere to be found. Without the possibility of a DNA test, what other proof can you provide?""This is a blood test that Grandpa and Grandma did when they were alive. Both of them had type O blood. According to Mendel's genetic law, two people with type O blood can only give birth to a baby with type O blood. Your father has type B blood. "The chances of a mutation happening are incredibly slim. Do you think your father would be the exception?"

The woman rubbed her temples. "Go back first. I'll think of something. Don't draw any suspicion to yourself.""Alright."Jacqueline suddenly thought about something. "By the way, how's Dad?"The woman's expression changed drastically. She sneered. "He's a stubborn man. I plan to inflict the pain he caused me back to him a thousandfold!"A pained expression flashed on Jacqueline's face. "Mom, why don't we stop this? We've already ruined his family over the years. It should be enough.""Enough? In your dreams! He deserves this!"The woman grabbed Jacqueline's collar. "I'm warning you, I'm your mother. I won't forgive you if you dare change your mind about our plans.""Mom, I know that. I'm your daughter. I'll definitely be on your side."Jacqueline broke free from the woman's grasp and looked at her with some fear in her eyes. The woman had been emotionally unstable all these years. She could've gotten her face fixed, but her obsession ran too deep.She said she wanted to reme

Olivia revealed her and Avery's plan to Troy when he was involved in an accident to comfort him.Avery and Troy acted together. Avery hid in the dark to not attract attention while Troy showed himself. David ran an investigation within a scope, and every clue led him to suspect Deborah. He volunteered to be the bait to lure her out.Avery lost contact with David after the plane crash, after which he spent days worrying about David.Fortunately, Avery managed to track David's whereabouts. Avery shared the news with Olivia immediately.That was when Olivia knew her true identity. It was mind-blowing, and she had mixed feelings about it.Emotions churned in her, but she couldn't say a word."What's wrong, Olivia?" asked Troy as he received zero response from her. "Did something happen?"She tried to hold herself together. "No, I'm just…"Her choking voice worried him more. "You don't have to hide anything from me. We're your godbrothers; we're a family. Even if many things are h
