Chapter 1571

Ethan was taller than Alexander, who had a more feminine build. The contrast between the two of them was quite strong when they stood next to each other. Ethan was manly and domineering, while Alexander had a softer and more elegant appearance. They were two extremes.Ethan glanced at Alexander calmly and nodded as a greeting."Ethan, this is my fiancée, Jacqueline Fordham," Alexander introduced. "Hi." Ethan looked at Jacqueline's face and noticed some similarities with Olivia.A hint of nervousness flashed in Jacqueline's eyes. She replied quickly, "Your reputation precedes you.""Really? You know about me?" Ethan's seemingly casual words carried the judgemental tone of a man in power.Especially since he was much taller than Jacqueline, his gaze coming from above was incredibly intimidating. Jacqueline composed herself and replied, "Mr. Miller, your reputation in the business world has spread far and wide. I've heard of you even though I'm in Zelotria. "I've been hoping

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

Olivia handed Troy a glass of water to try and calm him down."I don't really understand what's going on. Can you tell me about the traitors you mentioned?""That guy who just walked away is Graham Fordham. He's working in the entertainment industry. He's Uncle Henley's youngest son. Garrett, who died a while back, is his brother."Avery had never suspected anyone in the family for the longest time because he thought we were all bound by blood. "He thought it was only natural for all of us to work toward building the family up. Who in their right mind would bring ruin to their own family? I never expected them to harbor such malice toward us."Olivia was confused. "Why would Mr. David treat his children unfairly?""It's just how it is with the older generation. They just dote on the first son. Dad was Grandpa's first child. That was why he loved Dad to the point of spoiling him."His love even extended to Dad's children. Every time our cousins tried to compete for things with u

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

"What nonsense are you saying?" Troy's face was flushed with rage. If his hands weren't injured, he would've already slapped Graham.Jacqueline and Alexander looked at each other. The two of them were also thrown for a loop. Olivia turned to look at Ethan. "What's going on? Is he telling the truth?"Ethan said softly, "Olivia, I just got the news too. Look at who this is."Ethan showed her a photo on his phone. It was a photo of a woman with a great figure in her 30s. Olivia immediately knew who the woman was when she saw the mole under the corner of her eye."It's Natalie!"The photo was different from the black and white photos she had seen before. It was a colored photo, and the image was very clear. Although it wasn't as high definition as photos taken by modern devices, it was still better than the old photos."That's right."Olivia asked excitedly, "Have you found her?"Ethan gazed at the Fordhams and said, "Perhaps they'll reveal the answer to your question."Grah

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 huge secret that Graham revealed shocked the Fordhams, but it was also very devastating to Olivia. She had spent so much time looking for her family, but she found them at a time when 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. "Dad, Mom, and my brothers…"Another hard pill for her to swallow was the fact that the body she had found was actually her sister! Quinn died such a horrible death, but she didn't know about it. She didn't even get to attend Quinn's funeral.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 fa

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

David looked at the crazed woman before him. "Deborah, it's been so many years. Have you ever felt joy? What have you gotten from all this plotting? In the end, it's a lose-lose situation.""You're wrong. I was disfigured, disowned, and driven out of my family. I lost everything. Why should Shana have everything?""She was just a country bumpkin. How could she take my place? I might've lost, but you don't get to celebrate my defeat. A lose-lose situation is a win in my books!"She looked down at David. "Look at you now. You're beaten and battered. You look pitiful. I'll have you know that this is just the beginning. Soon, the entire Fordham family will be destroyed. I will destroy you and the Fordham family!""You really have lost your mind.""Yes, I've lost my mind. I lost my mind because of you. David, it's time you experienced the pain I felt. Do you know that Shana, the woman you care so much about, has become Brandon's woman now? "Does it hurt? Oh, right. You don't know yet
