eading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind
Chapter 289 The Moment Of Truth
Ava shook her head frantically. “No, no, you and Oliver truly aren’t siblings!”
Even so, Ruby was terrified as she also felt that it was the most conceivable possibility.
“In that case, let’s do a DNA test,” Lydia suddenly suggested.

With her eyes slightly red–rimmed, she turned to look at Damien. At the sight of him with his head hung low, her heart inexorably clenched.
She continued, “I also found the matter puzzling. Since Mrs. Willis is unable to communicate rationally and explain her reasons, let’s proceed by verifying the most plausible conjecture.”
In truth, as a person in power, Lydia shouldn’t have made such a hasty decision. If it turned out that they were wrong, it would cause irrevocable damage to her mother–son relationship with Oliver.
But perhaps because she had been overly upset by Oliver, at that moment, she wanted to trust her instincts and make a rash decision for once. She had never actually contemplated about how wonderful it would be if Damien were her child. Nonetheless, there were countless times when she had vaguely felt that he was very much like her. Unfortunately, back then, she simply attributed it to the fact that she taught him personally resulted in their similarities.
From the look of things right the wever, it might be biological.
Compared to her, Oliver resembled her narrow–minded and malicious former sister–in–law far more.
“Mom, you doubt me?” Oliver was in great turmoil at that moment, but his mother’s sudden request for at DNA test was still a stab to his heart. It felt as if he was being disdained, the unneeded one. Sure enough, you’d prefer Damien to be your child! Fine. If we’re going to do this, and it turns out that I’m your son, don’t ever expect me to acknowledge you again. Henceforth, you’re not my mother anymore!”
Lydia sneered inwardly. Once she rid herself of the rose–colored glasses of maternal love, everything encompassing Oliver’s words became crystal clear.
She knew that his behavior indicated his fear, for he also had his suspicions but was unwilling to confront the reality. He couldn’t face the fact that his mother was no different from a madwoman and refused to acknowledge that everything he had from head to toe was stolen from Damien, yet in the end, he still fell short in comparison to the latter,
“If
f you truly have the backbone to follow through on your words, then you indeed resemble me somewhat,” Lydia replied indifferently. Then, with a wave of her hand, her security guards stepped forward. It seemed they were planning to take a sample by force.
“You… You can’t do this!” Ava was frantic. “Damien, are you just going to sit back and do nothing? If you dare let them do this, I’ll take my life before your eyes!
Damien lifted his head, his gaze numb as he took in everything. “I would also like to know the truth of why you treat me this way. If you want to blackmail me with your death, well, I wouldn’t be legally responsible
anyway. After all, compared to everything you subjected me to, being an ingrate is truly nothing.”
Ava was stunned. She stared at Damien who could no longer be threatened in disbelief. By the time she Tegained her senses and attempted to lunge for the knife to solidify her threat, the security guards had long since been prepared for it. Once again, they restrained her.

Upon lifting her head, Ava saw Lydia approaching. Reduced to a pathetic state, she had no choice but to turn to her husband for help in the end.
Meanwhile, Sergio was still in shock. He was a shrewd man, realizing that the tide had turned, and a DNA test was inevitable. At the same time, his wife’s reaction had also affirmed the results.
We’re doomed! The Willis family is done for, and so is Ruby!
Ruby was still in a state of panic as she observed everything while Oliver shouted and bellowed with his face contorted as he was restrained by the security guards.
Lydia walked up to Ava and said, “Struggling is pointless. You should know my temperament by now. It won’t stop mid–way. If you come clean now, you could save yourself some suffering.”
She would undoubtedly verify the matter, but the more she thought about it, the more eager she was to obtain the answer quickly.
The veins on Ava’s face popped up. Just when everyone thought she would remain stubborn until the bitter end, she suddenly burst into hearty laughter.
“Lydia Sanders, you deserved it! You had it coming!”
Lydia’s expression changed drastically, and a chorus of gasps echoed from the surrounding crowd. Only Oliver and Ruby turned their gaze to Ava blankly in an instant.
Is this finally the moment of tru
Alexander had also stepped back and stayed by his wife’s side after having achieved his goal, quietly enjoying the show with her.
bella immediately grabbed Alexander’s hand, her excitement palpable.
Ava had completely lost her mind by then, scornfully mocking Lydia in a reckless move of despair, crowing. “You’re but a fool, helping me raise my son for over twenty years while allowing yours to be tormented all these years, with no father to protect him and no mother to love him. He could only cautiously survive under your roof, desperately trying to please me, yearning for a shred of maternal love. His servile demeanor was downright laughable. He didn’t even dare to compete with Ollie, who bullied him, for anything. This is your retribution, visited upon your child!”
Those words were spoken with such venom, they were a stab to the heart.
Despite Lydia being a successful businesswoman, at that moment, her eyes promptly welled with tears, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. She turned to look at Damien, only to see that his face was devoid of expression, yet his tears flowed ceaselessly as well.
Her heart clenched painfully. She grabbed Ava by the collar, seemingly wishing to strangle her. “Why? How have I ever offended you exactly? Why would you be so cruel? Tell me why!”
Was it because of Jared?” Howard suddenly interjected, his voice hoarse. “It was because of Jared, right? You’ve never let it go?”
