Divorced My Cheating Husband, Married A Billionaire novel Chapter 135

Riley was in deep thought. She was biting her nails at this point. She thought about all the things Renee had told her. Then she shared, "Mom said that she almost died. She probably changed her name because of the threat."

"I had tried to look into it, Riley. I couldn't find any information on your mom years before you were born. And as far as I know, Raelyn's last name was a Becket," Adrian revealed.

Yet again, Riley fell silent. As she thought about the past, Abner inquired next, "But Ramona only came into the picture years later, right, Adrian?"

"Yes, Charles discovered that his daughter was rescued during that accident. He searched for his daughter, and Ramona came forward and introduced Leni as his daughter. Technically, she is a total stranger to Charles, only that she raised Leni for ten years," Adrian revealed.

"But as far as I know, they went through the process, including DNA testing," Abner said while caressing his chin. "They were able to prove that Leni is Charles' daughter."

"Yes, but after Brian's experience, we know that one can fake the DNA test," Adrian pointed out. "And the thing is, I discovered something about Ramona that was off."

Riley stared back at her husband. She asked, "What is it?"

"She had money, but we don't know where she got it," Adrian revealed. "She isn't a socialite, nor does her family have a known background."

"She just happened to be someone who had saved a baby girl, and that was Leni. Then, Leni was her ticket to wealth and prestige," Adrian added. "Because Leni looked up to her as a mother, Charles let Ramona live in the Eros mansion."

"But they have no relationship?" Riley asked.

"No!" Both Abner and Adrian replied.

"I don't think Charles will love another woman," Abner remarked. "He tries to be happy, but he is a sad man, Riley. The truth is he is alone now."

"But Ramona thinks she is the mistress of the Eros family because of the access that she has through Leni," Adrian revealed. "Leni loves Ramona and considers her her real mother."

"So, Ramona only became somewhat part of the Eros family when she introduced Leni to Charles?" Riley asked.

"Yes, that was when Leni was around ten," Abner replied. "It was all over the news: The young lost heiress of Charles Eros is finally home."

Riley's brows met. She asked, "So if Ramona only came in years later, it was Charles' brother and mother who had threatened my mother."

"Yes, actually, Calvin and the old Mrs. Eros were charged with murder. It was determined that they were responsible for the car accident Raelyn was involved in many years ago. That and many more, including embezzlement," Adrian revealed.

"It was hard for Charles," Abner described. "He had to put his brother and mother in prison, but he had to do what he had to do. They were in the wrong."

"The old Mrs. Eros died in prison. Cameron was heartbroken by his family's betrayal. He passed away shortly after his wife died, but Calvin has a different story. He is still locked up, about to complete his time in prison. He is due to be released in five years," Adrian revealed.

"So, to sum it up. There was indeed a major conflict between the Eros family, but that had been eradicated long ago when Charles pursued a case against his brother and mother," Adrian told Riley. "The threat to your mother should have stopped when they were locked up."
