The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 940

Julia was clearly being preserved as a backup vessel for their twisted pharmaceutical experiments. However, Tara refrains from exposing Gregory's true, monstrous nature to Zoey and the matriarch just yet. He is their blood relative, and without ironclad evidence, launching such an explosive accusation would only cause unnecessary chaos. But the clock is ticking. She and Danny have already cast a wide net, and they are playing a very patient game. The biggest fish is about to take the bait. Soon, the dust will settle once and for all.

Pushing the dark thoughts aside, Tara withdraws her fingers from Julia's pulse point and smiles warmly. "Physical medicine can only do so much; the real healing must come from within. Your body is recovering, but you need to slowly untangle the knots in your heart. The nightmare is over. Leave it in the past. You are back where you belong, surrounded by a family that adores you. Focus on the future and live for your own happiness."

"I will. Thank you so much, Dr. T," Julia replies with a soft, bashful smile. Her voice is incredibly gentle and soothing.

This is the real Julia Sinclair. While she shares an uncanny physical resemblance to the impostor—so much so that they could pass for identical twins—the differences are glaring if you know where to look. The real Julia's gaze is kind, and her tone carries the effortless grace of true elite upbringing. She greets everyone with a shy, genuine warmth, entirely devoid of the calculating, aggressive edge that defined the fake Julianna. It is a purity the impostor could never successfully replicate. Tara immediately finds herself drawn to the real Miss Sinclair, appreciating her comforting, crystal-clear energy.

Beside them, little Gavin silently clings to his older sister's arm, staring up at her with pure adoration and absolute trust. It is a night-and-day difference from how he reacted to the impostor. Whenever the fake Julianna entered the room, Gavin's subconscious trauma would trigger, causing him to flinch and tremble in terror. A child's pure intuition can never be faked. Now, safely nestled against his actual sister, the transformation is beautiful.

"My sister is going to be all better soon," Gavin whispers sweetly. "You have to be good friends with the pretty doctor, okay?"

Gavin has blossomed incredibly since Tara first met him. He is no longer the pale, terrified ghost of a child. He looks healthy, bright, and deeply joyful. Most importantly, he is finally speaking. Surrounded by the people he loves, his words flow with increasing confidence and clarity.

"Of course I will. I would love to be good friends with your pretty doctor," Julia replies with a radiant smile, affectionately ruffling her little brother's hair. Her eyes overflow with absolute devotion.

Then, Julia shifts her gaze toward the corner of the room, where Bonnie is standing as still as a statue. Usually, Bonnie is the loudest, most dramatic presence in any room, thriving on chaos and attention. Today, she is dead silent, thoroughly humbled by the crushing realization of how spectacularly wrong she had been. Every time Julia shoots her an encouraging look, Bonnie visibly shrinks, radiating awkward guilt. But after receiving multiple gentle nods from her true cousin, and seeing how beautifully harmonious the room feels, she realizes she can't hide in her shame forever. Taking a deep breath, Bonnie finally steps forward to join the family circle.
