The next second, Rosalie couldn't resist picking up the cup next to her and hurling it in Cecilia's direction. Her face was twisted and
sinister.
Rosalie shouted, "She's talking nonsense. She's lying! She stole our child, Anthony. Don't believe her! She's a llar! Bitch, you're trying to set me up! Go to hell"
Rosalie was in a state of panic. She was willing to keep the secret even at the cost of harming her own mother, yet it was so easily revealed by someone she had always looked down upon.
She had someone run over and kill Frank and Margaret to keep the secret. She wanted to get rid of everyone who knew about it.
'I've neglected and underestimated this bitch! she thought.
Aiden's expression gradually became colder, and his gaze at Rosalie was no longer as guilty and gentle as before.
He had always tho
thought it was a coincidence that Rosalie had saved him, so he took good care of her and tried to pair her up with Anthony, even at the risk of offending Anthony and Genevieve.
Yet, that was the outcome.
"Are you telling the truth?" he asked, looking down at Cecilia, whose face was grim.
Cecilia lifted her gaze. Her eyes w
were dull. It was as if she had fallen into an abyss.
She struggled with her inner conflict and pain, tormenting herself and wanting to torment him at the same time.
"Of course, it's true. After the incident, she gave us 100 thousand dollars as hush money, and we used that money to pay for my father's hospitalization expenses," she replied.
Aiden's gaze was filled with unspeakable, complicated emotions. He looked at her with anger, disappointment, and a touch of helplessness.
He pondered, "Have I not treated her well enough all these years? Yet, she lied to me as if I were a fool!
Cecilia turned to look at Anthony, whose expression was somber. She pursed her lips and said, "And you... You're ridiculous, too. Do you know the story behind your family's car accident a while ago?"
Anthony raised his head in an instant.
Rosalie was even more agitated. Her face turned pale, and her voice trembled as she said, "Cecilia, you blackmailed me for 2 million dollars last time. And now,
you're framing me because I didn't give it to you?"
She was eager to prove her innocence.
However, that attested to her sense of guilt.
Cecilia chuckled as if she had not heard Rosalie's words.
She turned her gaze to an open window.
The curtains fluttered as the cold night breeze blew in.

All of a sudden, Cecilia wanted to free herself and get out of her misery.
"Framed? Rosalie, I'll see you at the bottom," she said with a smile, then looked at Aiden with a sorrowful expression before she turned and ran toward the window.
Rosalie was not the only one who had destroyed Cecilia's family.
The victim, Aiden, had allowed her father to lapse into a vegetative state with a casually uttered prohibition on treatment.
He was both a victim and a perpetrator.
Aiden looked at her in shock before he could react

Aiden hurried over, his complexion pale, looking as if he might collapse.
Cecilia was like a rose that had struggled but could not save itself, slowly blooming and freeing itself in the darkness under the street lamps.
Rosalie fell silent. She looked at the disappearing woman. She was shocked but relieved, then she subconsciously shifted her gaze to observe Anthony's
reaction.
Anthony's expression was cold and somber. The moment he stared at her, it seemed as if he had seen through her ugly and disgusting soul.
Cecilia did not tell the whole story about the car accident, but there was no way
that Anthony would not have become suspicious.
Rosalie was so nervous that her heart was about to leap out of her chest.
"Anthony... she uttered.
Aiden dealt with the remaining matters. He was depressed.
Cecilia had not told Anthony Malcolm's whereabouts. Instead, he had discovered
something else.
His reaction was too calm. There was no anger, not even a shout. His expression was extremely cold. It was dangerous and frightening.
He had Rosalie locked up in a sanatorium. She was not allowed to leave without
his orders.
Anthony remained indifferent, regardless of how much Rosalie wailed and
protested.
Malcolm's disappearance remained unsolved.
There was no trace of Malcolm, no matter what connections Anthony used to
locate him.
At Hoffman Group office, Daniel knocked on a door and entered. When Daniel
saw Anthony, who had seemed exhausted and distant in recent days, he dared not relax for a second as he reported, "Mr. Hoffman, I've reviewed all the footage from the nearby surveillance cameras. The footage during that period has been tampered with. If we eliminate the possibility of a kidnapping for

human trafficking, it's likely that someone was targeting us."
He continued, "For the time being, the child might be safe if they haven't reached
out yet"
Until now, Anthony had not revealed Malcolm's identity.

To the public, Samson was perceived as Anthony's illegitimate child. However,
Anthony wondered, "Why has Samson been left
unharmed?"
Anthony rubbed his forehead with his slender fingers, and with a calm expression, he said, "Rosalie has been closely monitored. How
is she doing?"
Daniel momentarily froze before answering, "She's been making a scene,
claiming that she's innocent. However, when her blood is compared to the blood sample of the perpetrator who jumped off a building, they are identified as mother
and daughter."
Anthony's expression instantly darkened as Daniel said those words.
A lot of things had become clear to him at once.
Not only did Rosalie arrange the car accident three years ago, but she also
repeated the same trick three years later.

He seethed inwardly, thinking, 'How dare she harm Grandpa and Grandma! This
woman is a wolf in sheep's clothing!
He suddenly thought of Genevieve and felt as if his heart was being clenched
tightly. It felt unbearable and suffocating.
"But I'm afraid that alone won't be enough evidence to bring Rosalie to justice,"
Daniel added.
Anthony stood up with his phone in his hand, feeling frustrated and heavily
burdened.
Daniel was stunned for a moment before asking, "Mr. Hoffman, where are you
going?" "Don't follow me,' he replied. His tone was indifferent.
Anthony started driving aimlessly and finally stopped at Eagle Entertainment.
Meanwhile, in the office, Jasper brought over the information he had obtained about Rosalie.
"This is an old photo that our people found after a long search," he reported.
Genevieve's expression changed when she picked it up and looked at it.

The more Genevieve thought about it, the more horrible it seemed to her.
She thought, 'If that's the case, Rosalie would do anything!"
She pursed her lips and put the photo back.
Just as she was about to ask Jasper to give it to Anthony, the assistant outside
knocked on the door, saying, "Mr. Hoffman from

Hoffman Group is here to see you, Ms. Lawrence! He said it's something
important!"
Genevieve was stunned, and the office fell into silence for a moment.
"Let him in," she said.
Jasper nodded and walked out of the room.
Anthony fixed his gaze on Genevieve as soon as he entered.
