Chapter 175
Andrew recounted to Madelyn everything he had extracted from Josiah,
The more Madelyn heard, the more shocked she became.
“So you mean I’m really not Caleb and Amelia’s biological daughter?”
Andrew nodded solemnly.
“It’s confirmed now. You’re not theirs.”
“And they…”
I
“Caleb only found out five years ago. As far as I know, he’s the only one in the Garcia family aware of this fact.”
Madelyn’s breathing grew more labored at this revelation.
So, Caleb had known all along that she wasn’t his biological daughter. Over the years, he shamelessly exploited–her for his gain without any gratitude.
She couldn’t believe their actions and behavior over all these years.
Madelyn asked, “Do Amelia and Elena know about this?”
Andrew replied, “Anyone who knew at the time was sworn to secrecy by him.”
Madelyn nodded. Her disgust toward Caleb had now reached its peak.
Andrew wanted to be absolutely certain before telling Madelyn the truth, so he also checked the Garcia family’s genetic database. He confirmed that the entire Garcia family had different blood types from hers. At this point, there was hardly any need for a paternity test.
“This is just despicable!”
Madelyn was at a loss for words to describe Caleb. Those words alone didn’t seem enough.
Her heart raced with anger.
“Is this why you’ve been retaliating against them?”
She had to admit that Andrew’s retaliation was perfectly timed.
As soon as she learned the truth, the Garcia family began to experience severe repercussions. It wasn’t exactly a devastating blow. After all, Andrew was simply reclaiming everything the Miller family had previously given away.
But even such moves made the Garcia family feel unprecedented devastation.
Amelia probably saw that the Garcia family was at its lowest point, which is why she asked Caleb for a
divorce.
Andrew gently tucked Madelyn’s messy hair behind her ear and softly asked, “Are you okay, darling?” Madelyn shook her head.
“I’m not upset. On the contrary, I feel relieved.”
When she witnessed Caleb and Amelia’s behavior before, she would wish that she had no connection to them. Just the thought of sharing their blood nauseated her.
Chapter 175
2/2
Although their actions still disgusted her, she felt an immense sense of relief from discovering that they weren’t her biological parents.
Andrew held her close and said, “Rowan suggested we look for your biological parents. What do you
think?”
Although Andrew had refused Rowan’s suggestion in the conference room earlier, he still wanted to know Madelyn’s true feelings.
When Madelyn heard “biological parents“, she thought about how Amelia had treated her so poorly when she returned to the Garcia family at the age of ten. Amelia’s attitude had been cold and unkind despite being oblivious to Madelyn’s true identity.
Even if they believed she was their biological daughter at the time, their attitude was dreadful.
Now, with Andrew asking if she wanted to find her biological parents, she instinctively shook her head.
“No! I don’t need them.”
She contemplated what would happen if the people they found were even worse than Calen and Amelia.
Clearly, after more than ten years with the Garcias, Madelyn had developed a natural aversion to biological ties.
