The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 628

Jessa’s eyebrows pulled together. “What do you mean? What’s going on with him?”

Rachel dropped her voice, glancing around. “Jessa, Peter found out the truth about who you really are. He…”

Jessa didn’t let her finish. “The truth about me? What truth? There’s nothing left to find out. I’m the Wade family’s daughter, the real heiress. Didn’t we already settle this?”

She still had no idea.

Rachel hadn’t planned on telling Jessa anything. But now Peter was awake and things were getting risky. She had no choice. Jessa needed to know what she was up against.

“Jessa, I need to tell you something important. You’re not actually Mr. Wade’s biological daughter.”

Jessa’s face went pale. She stared at Rachel, her voice shaking. “What are you even talking about? Of course I’m my dad’s daughter. Are you out of your mind?”

Rachel held her gaze. “Jessa, you’re actually my daughter. Mine and Jon’s. I switched you and Ella when you were born.”

Jessa sucked in a sharp breath. “You switched me and Ella? So I’m really your daughter? Then what about Ella… is she…?”

Rachel nodded. “Yes. Ella is Mr. Wade’s real daughter. She’s the true heiress.”

The words crashed into Jessa, echoing over and over. Ella is Mr. Wade’s real daughter. Ella is the true heiress. Her heart pounded. Her mind went blank.

She understood every word Rachel was saying, but put together, it just didn’t make sense.

She took a shaky breath. “You need to calm down. Peter knows everything now. He’s in the hospital, and any second he could tell everyone the truth about you. If that happens, we’re both finished. Do you understand?”

Rachel’s words hit Jessa like a splash of ice water. She felt herself go cold all over, reality settling in with a painful clarity.

She was a fraud. Ella was the real heiress.

She couldn’t let Ella and Mr. Wade reunite, couldn’t let Ella have the life that should have been hers.

No. She wouldn’t let that happen.

Jessa looked up at Rachel, her voice trembling. “So what do we do now? Why did Peter have to wake up? Why couldn’t he have just died?”
