“Mom, I messed up. We all messed up. Angelica fooled every single one of us,” Curtis repeated.
Julia knew just how much Curtis favored Angelica. Hearing him say they’d all been tricked by her right after waking up, she couldn’t help but be shocked.
“Curtis, when you were unconscious, Angelica barely slept, staying at the hospital to take care of you. Now that you’re finally awake, how can you say she fooled us?” Julia said.
Her anger spiked again as she glared at Victoria. “You damn brat, did you mess with Curtis just now? There’s definitely something shady about that silver needle!”
Victoria sneered, reminding her, “Mrs. Binder, didn’t your son tell you to keep your mouth shut? Are you deaf or what?”
Julia was so furious she could barely get the words out. “You…”
Curtis was frantic, practically yelling at the top of his lungs, “Mom, I told you, this has nothing to do with Victoria! Can you ust stop talking already? It’s all because of that evil girl Angelica!”
simon was completely shocked by Curtis calling Angelica “that evil girl” and wondered if Curtis really hated Angelica that nuch.
ulia was also startled by the way Curtis snapped at her. Worried he might get too worked up and have another episode, she quickly said, “Alright, alright, I won’t say another word.”
Meanwhile, Angelica clenched her fists so hard her nails dug into her palms. She decided to strike first, her eyes rimmed red is she choked up, “Curtis, I know what you’re about to say. Yes, I admit it. I tricked all of you.
But I only did it because I cared about you all so much. I just couldn’t help myself.”
Then, Angelica bowed to Darell, Julia, and Simon one by one. “Everyone, I’m really sorry. When you said you were bringing Victoria back, I totally panicked.
I knew you all loved me, but I’m not your real daughter. I was scared you’d abandon me someday, so I… I hired someone
O…”
imon had already guessed the rest. “Angelica, so you really hired someone to assault Victoria, didn’t you?”
Angelica’s face was full of remorse. “Simon, I regret it so much now. Luckily Victoria didn’t get hurt. If something had
appened to her, I’d never be able to live with myself.”
Victoria let out a cold laugh. “The only reason nothing happened to me was because I was strong enough to protect myself.
If I hadn’t been, I would’ve been violated by a criminal with a long rap sheet, and you would’ve recorded the whole thing, planning to use that video to blackmail me, just so you could keep your spot in the Binder family safe from me.”
When Simon finally learned the truth, his legs went weak and he stumbled back a couple of steps. He looked over at Victoria’s cold and expressionless face.
His heart twisted painfully.
Victoria had told him before that Angelica had hired someone to assault her, but he just couldn’t bring himself to believe it. After all, he never thought the sister he’d always doted on could be as vicious as Victoria said,
There was no way Victoria wouldn’t resent them after all

Darell didn’t care at all about what Angelica had done to Victoria, or what Victoria had suffered. In his eyes, it was nothing more than some petty rivalry between his adopted and biological daughters for the family’s favor.
All he cared about now was whether their whole family was about to lose everything, and the only one who could save them
all was Victoria.
So, the whole family had no choice but to beg for Victoria’s forgiveness.
Darell decided to put aside all his pride and dignity and beg his real daughter for forgiveness.
He forced down his anger and demanded, “Angelica, so you really went behind our backs and did this to your own sister, our flesh and blood? Kneel!”
Angelica didn’t hesitate. She dropped to her knees, tears pouring down her face. “Dad, Mom, Simon, Curtis, I’m truly sorry. I know I messed up.”
Darell lashed out, “Angelica, your mom and I always believed you were a good kid, but we never thought you’d be doing these dirty deeds in secret! You’ve disappointed us deeply!”
After he finished, Darell gave Julia a meaningful look. Just chewing out Angelica wasn’t nearly enough to get Victoria to forgive them.
Julia met Darell’s gaze and got the hint right away.
