Chapter 291

Miles watched the two women through the surveillance camera. He was surprised. The police officers had taken turns interrogating Maya. They had used every interrogation technique imaginable, but she had merely clamped up and refused to say anything. But the moment Lucy showed up, Maya started to talk, as shown on the computer screen."Joey forced me to drug all of you that day. Then, she pushed me to sleep with Mr. Ripley."Miles couldn't stop praising Lucy. "Lucy is wonderful. She made Maya talk with just a few words."Faith patted her chest and said, "Why, of course. Lucy is the most capable person out there."Miles chuckled and said, "You asked for my help to let someone who isn't a law enforcer interrogate a criminal. I'm doing you a special service. How do you plan on repaying me?""Well…" Faith wanted to run away, but Miles guessed her thoughts. He reached out with both hands and trapped her on the table. It looked like he was holding her. Faith blushed immediately. "Ste

Rhett said bitterly, "Will you spare me from jogging, Tobias? It's bad for our health if we run immediately after a meal."A smile crept up onto Tobias' face. However, it was more like a blood-chilling grin. "It'll make me think that you didn't actually eat too much if you're not going to jog. Instead, it looks like you're…"He didn't finish his sentence. He was about to say that Rhett was playing tricks. Rhett was feeling diffident to begin with. Now that he heard what Tobias said, he exclaimed immediately, "I'll jog. Alright?"Rhett asked in embarrassment, "How many laps am I jogging?"Tobias responded in a commanding tone, "50!"Rhett was rooted to the spot. Then, he asked, "What about you?"Tobias responded, "I didn't eat too much. I'll watch as you jog. Go, now. I won't let you off if you skip one lap."Rhett was speechless. Why should he listen to Tobias?He sensed Tobias' authoritative demeanor and followed the latter's orders in confusion. Rhett had no choice but to g

Now that it had come to this, Lucy knew she couldn't hide the truth anymore. With that said, it was connected to Tobias. How disheartened would he feel if he learned that Joey wasn't his birth mother?For a moment there, Lucy hesitated. She didn't know how to formulate words to tell him about the truth. Tobias noticed her grim expression and asked, "What on earth is going on?"At the next moment, his phone rang. It was Miles. Lucy said, "Answer the call first."Tobias took the call. "Hello.""I got my hands on some surveillance footage, Tobias. I discovered that Lucy and your mom had some conflict at the rooftop on the day that she had a car accident. I've emailed you the footage."Tobias' heart sank. "Got it."He lowered his gaze and chuckled coldly with his back turned to Lucy. "Does Joey have something to do with your car crash?"Lucy heard Tobias and Miles' conversation. Tobias was highly intelligent. It wouldn't have taken him long to figure out the entire picture.Lucy

The next day, Lucy sat in front of the mirror and checked her appearance. All of a sudden, the door to the makeup room swung open. Faith asked, "The reporters are here, Lucy. Can we begin the press conference now?"Lucy nodded, "Proceed!"Both of them walked onto the stage. In a matter of seconds, the reporters snapped pictures, and the cameras flashed incessantly. Lucy sat in the middle seat, appearing calm. Lucy said, "I'm Lucy Everhart, everyone. I've gathered everyone here because I have an important announcement to make. It just so happens that this is related to my husband, Tobias Ripley."At the same time, Joey intended to release some secrets on her Twitter account. Little did she know she'd see the livestream of Lucy's press conference. She shot up from her bed instantly. "Isn't Lucy supposed to be unconscious? How did she wake up all of a sudden? She's even organized a press conference…" Joey trailed off into silence and murmured, "Is it possible that she's exposing

Chapter 295

Joey had committed multiple crimes, and there was evidence to back it up. It was irrefutable, but she was adamantly denying it. Just as everyone thought that the police officers would subdue her, a man popped up out of nowhere. It was none other than Fiona's father, Joseph Hawkins. He said, "Mrs. Ripley has left something out!"At the next moment, the people around him swapped glances and muttered."What's going on now?""Falsely accusing someone of a crime is against the law, too. Which one of them is telling the truth? I'm so lost right now!"Joseph walked into the venue. The moment Joey saw him, her eyes were latched with menace. It was as if she was hinting at him that she'd kill him if he so much as spilled anything about her.Be that as it may, Joseph wasn't afraid of her at all. He said, "There was one more thing about Joey that not even Mrs. Ripley knows about.""Joseph Hawkins!" Joey roared, "Are you trying to get the entire Hawkins family destroyed?"Joseph sneered.

Lucy felt upset. She looked at Tobias' questioning gaze and nodded, saying, "D-Darling, I wanted to find a suitable time to tell you. I never thought you would find out so quickly."Tobias remained unfazed by the massive news. However, Lucy knew how much turmoil he was experiencing inside.Lucy held his hand tightly and said, "There are some unreliable mothers in this world. But there are some like Fiona, who don't know who they are and yet risk their lives to protect their children when needed. Blood is thicker than water."Tobias remained expressionless, and Lucy couldn't figure out what he was thinking. Instantly, the atmosphere became tense.Joseph sighed. "Tobias, your mother doesn't know you're her son!"Tobias' lips trembled as the look in his eyes changed.Joseph looked at Joey and said aggressively, "Back then, this vicious woman imprisoned my daughter and told everyone she herself was pregnant. "I thought something was off, so I investigated it discreetly and realized

Tobias and Lucy left the press conference. They got in the car, and Tobias drove away. Lucy quietly observed Tobias, trying to figure out how he was feeling. Lucy cautiously asked, "Darling, are you angry that I didn't tell you that Fiona was your mother?"Lucy quickly explained, "I thought about it before and was afraid you couldn't take the news, so I decided to tell you after a few days. I didn't plan to keep it from you."Tobias held the steering wheel with one hand and caressed Lucy's head with the other, saying, "Don't overthink it. Why would I blame you?"Lucy took a document from her bag and said, "Darling, this is your DNA report with Fiona. "Tobias stopped the car by the side of the road and read the document. The document wrote, "Tobias and Fiona's relationship is positive."Tobias believed this was the truth! Tobias' gaze turned grim for a moment. Then, he turned the car around and went somewhere else. Lucy said, "Where are we going?"Tobias' eyes darkened. "

Lucy went to the reception counter on the floor where she had been admitted."Ms. Everhart, this is your DNA report."DNA report?Lucy took the report and only remembered that Rhett gave this report to her. After taking it from him, she left it on the table and completely forgot about it.The report initially belonged to Tobias. However, she used her details to admit herself to the hospital, so the staff contacted her instead.Suddenly, Lucy recalled the press conference this morning and remembered Joey's claim that Tobias had an illegitimate child.Now, Tobias' DNA report was in her hands!Instantly, Lucy was caught between a rock and a hard place.On the one hand, she thought Joey made everything up, and she believed Tobias' character.

Come back home and have lunch with us.""Ah?"

Lucy looked up, only to see that the man who had spoken up was none other than Cedric.When Cedric's eyes landed on the DNA report, Lucy couldn't wipe her tears away quickly enough and kept the report in the bag.He asked, "Why are you crying, Lucy? Did someone hurt you? Don't tell me it's Tobias. If it is, I'll teach him a lesson!" Lucy looked away. She wiped her tears and changed the topic, asking, "Why are you at the hospital?""Oh, I have a friend who fell and was admitted to the orthopedics ward. I came to see her. " Cedric was concerned for Lucy. "A-Are you okay?"Lucy shook her head and said, "I'm okay. Can you keep this a secret for now?"Cedric gestured an "okay" and asked, "Can you help me with something?"Confused, Lucy looked at him. Cedric chuckled. "My friend is a lady. She fell and wanted me to apply medication for her. I think there should be some boundaries between a man and a woman, so I wondered if you could help her with the medication. I'll get a helper for

"I see you went shopping, Lucy. You have so many bags with you."Before getting into the car, Lucy had recollected her composure, burying her sorrows deep down in her heart and pretending as if nothing happened.Lucy said, "This is the gift I've prepared for everyone!""Oh, you shouldn't have! There's no need for gifts when you're heading home!" Rhett said as he bent over to help Lucy with her seatbelt. When he leaned in, he noticed Lucy's eyes were red and swollen."Lucy, what happened to your eyes?"Lucy's heart ached. She turned away, saying, "A bug flew into my eyes earlier. I think they became red and swollen after I rubbed them. It's okay. It'll go away after a while."Rhett didn't think much of it and said, "Okay, sit tight. Mom and Dad are anxiously waiting."He started the car and headed for Eberhard Residence.They didn't know that Kate had pointed at Rhett's car and said, "Mom, isn't that Mr. Rhett and Mrs. Ripley? Aren't they siblings? Why did they look so close ear
