Chapter 110
Cecilia took the DNA test report and turned directly to the last page.
[Samples A and B share some genetic sequences, indicating a sibling relationship.]
She was not surprised at the long-expected result.
Thinking that Juliana’s mother had gone to the hospital, she called Jackson.
Looking at Cecilia’s call, Jackson didn’t want to answer it.
But after the psychological impact of Cecilia’s previous actions, he feared missing important information and would later regret
it.
After picking up the phone, he said in a disgruntled tone, “What’s the matter?”
“I’m perfectly fine, but Juliana is in trouble.”
“What have you done to Juliana? If something happens to her, I’ll kill you!”
Jackson hung up the phone after roaring.
He hurriedly called Juliana but failed to get through.
He completely panicked and rushed to the hospital immediately.
For the convenience of visiting Juliana, he stayed in a hotel near the hospital. It only took him a few minutes to get there.
At this moment, Abigail had disguised herself as a caregiver and entered Juliana’s ward with her exceptional skills in deception. Juliana was sleeping, drenched in sweat, her eyebrows furrowed. She clutched the quilt tightly, and her lips mumbled

“No. Please, let me go…”
Seeing Juliana’s gauze-wrapped wrist gradually stained with blood, Abigail hurried forward and held it.
“Juliana, what’s wrong?”
Juliana opened her eyes in shock, pulled back her hand vigorously, and slapped Abigail in the face.
Slap!
As she awakened from her nightmare, she realized who she had struck.
Looking at the redness and swelling on Abigail’s face, Juliana wasn’t sorry at all. Her pale face was full of indifference.
“Why are you here?”
If Abigail hadn’t been wearing a caregiver uniform, Juliana would have asked her to leave.
Abigail, still feeling the stinging sensation on her face, didn’t blame Juliana but instead gently rubbed her cheek.
“Juliana, I’m here to see you. Why didn’t you let me know that you are hospitalized?”
Felix hadn’t mentioned Juliana’s prior injury from falling down the stairs or the pressure from Cecilia that had led to her suicide
attempt.
He also hadn’t mentioned his involvement in letting thugs harass Juliana.
Abigail didn’t see the news, so she knew nothing.
She had only been preoccupied with preventing Felix from going to prison. She hadn’t considered why Juliana was in the hospital until she saw her daughter’s distressed condition.
Juliana reminded her in a deep voice, “The hospital is full of

Abigail hurriedly covered her mouth and said in a lowered voice, “I won’t say anything. Are you feeling unwell?”
“I won’t die. Why did you come to the hospital? Is it or Felix?” Juliana’s tone was filled with sarcasm and impatient.
She had initially thought Abigail came to visit her out of concern after seeing the videos online, risking being discovered.
However, Abigail didn’t know anything.
Obviously, she came here for Felix who was taken away by the police!
She wasn’t too disappointed because she had experienced firsthand Bernard and Abigail’s preference for Felix.
They had only groomed her to replace Cecilia and secure a better life for themselves as well as a brighter future for Felix. Thinking of this, Juliana closed her eyes, unwilling to talk to her mother.
Abigail thought Juliana was sleepy and said hurriedly, “Juliana, don’t sleep yet. Your brother has been arrested by the police, and he might go to jail. You must help him.”
Seeing that Juliana was indifferent, she added, “He did those things for you. You can’t just abandon him.”
When she said this, she was a little resentful.
She thought they could have asked someone else to do these bad things. There was no need to drag her son into it.
Juliana suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Abigail, who was furious.
“I did those things to ensure you and your family would have an abundance of money to spend.”
Of course, she didn’t want to return the identity of the daughter

Abigail noticed Juliana’s anger and changed her tone immediately.
“Juliana, your wrist is bleeding. Let the doctor take care of it. You’re making me worried.”
Ignoring her half-hearted concern, Juliana didn’t even lift an eyelid.
“It’s just a minor injury. I won’t die. Just get to the point.” “Juliana, Mom…”
Abigail began but was met with a warning glare from Juliana, causing her to correct herself.
“I know you’ve endured a lot in the Yancey family for our sake, but your brother’s troubles could also affect you. The
kidnapping plan was your idea, and your brother was just an accomplice. If the police find evidence, you’ll likely get a heavier sentence than him. I don’t want your brother to suffer, but I also don’t want you to face trouble. Please use your connections in the Yancey family to help him, alright?”
Abigail then dropped a bombshell.
“And…”
Juliana looked at her unhappily. “Just say what you want. Don’t waste my time.”
“And… Cecilia has already used your and your brother’s samples for a paternity test. The Yancey family will soon know your true identity. Before they find out it was intentional, you need to gain some advantages and help your brother clear his name.”
This revelation left Juliana visibly shaken.
“Why would Cecilia go for a paternity test? Did Felix say something? That idiot!”
She knew her true identity would be revealed sooner or later,

Abigail didn’t know the specific situation, but she subconsciously defended Felix.
“Your brother is too smart to say anything. It’s likely that Cecilia figured it out. Julia, you…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the hospital room door was forcefully pushed open, slamming against the wall with a loud bang.
Juliana and Abigail looked at the door simultaneously.
When they saw Jackson’s pale face, their minds went blank, and they couldn’t think clearly.
Jackson hadn’t heard their entire conversation, but he caught the last few sentences.
He stared at Juliana with a furious expression, his fists clenched tightly, making a cracking sound.
Soon, he loosened his fist and pointed at Abigail. His fingers kept trembling.
“Julia, who is she? What does she mean by what she just said?” Even though the evidence was right in front of him, he didn’t want to believe it.
The roar brought Juliana back to her senses.
She looked at Jackson, who was full of pain, and panicked.
“Jack, I don’t know her. I have no idea what she is talking about. My head hurts and my body aches. Please help me drive her away.”
She really didn’t know how to explain it and resorted to denial and changing the subject.
To make it seem real, she vigorously slapped her own head and curled her body, appearing as if she was in great pain.

“Julia, in your eyes, I’m st**id and easy to fool, right?”
He clutched his chest, unable to breathe due to the pain in his heart.
Juliana met Jackson’s disappointed eyes and became even more flustered.
She pushed aside the quilt and tried to get out of bed but
collapsed on the edge, her forehead hitting the bed frame with a loud thud.
Regardless of the pain, she hurriedly climbed towards Jackson. “Jack, I didn’t lie to you. Let me explain.”
Jackson stood still, watching Juliana climb towards him and grab his trousers.
His voice lacked any warmth, and his gaze was as cold as ice. “Explain it then. I’d love to hear what sweet words you’ll use to try and deceive me this time.”
