Lilah's gaze rested on Helga, who was causing a ruckus on the floor, determination in her eyes.

"Enough," Lilah commanded.

Before she could continue, a man swiftly intervened, pulling Helga to her feet. “What are you thinking, causing a scene here? Come home with me now!"

Matthew's voice boomed with frustration.

With so many reporters and online viewers witnessing everything, Matthew wondered what this woman was thinking. Did she want to disgrace him in front of the whole world?

"I won't leave! Not while Adaline's in jail. I want to see how heartless Lilah can be. How can she so easily forsake her own sister?"

Helga countered, though her voice wavered when she met Matthew's fiery glare. She had felt the weight of his anger in recent days, yet the thought of Adaline in prison steeled her resolve.

Observing the drama, Lilah smirked. “Is that so? Since we're airing our family's dirty laundry, perhaps it's time for some truths."

Helga paused her theatrics, shooting Lilah a wary glance. She reassured herself that Lilah wouldn't dare publicly disclose that she had caused her sister's abduction.

But that confidence crumbled when Lilah displayed three DNA reports for all to see.

The room buzzed with shock.

The results were clear—Adaline was biologically related only to Helga, not to Lilah or Matthew.

The implication was unmistakable.

Reporters shifted their attention to Helga, judgment evident in their eyes.

The narrative had flipped-Helga had an extramarital affair, resulting in Adaline's birth.

Matthew, overwhelmed with embarrassment, looked around.

Family matters, especially as intimate as this, should remain private.

But Helga's actions had cast a spotlight on their personal lives.

Matthew's resentment toward Helga was palpable, each glance he shot her filled with loathing. He wished he'd kept her away from such public spectacles.

Lilah took a deep breath before addressing the gathered audience.

"Adaline Phillips is not my blood sister. When I was a child, I lost my younger sister during an outing. That day remains the most traumatic memory of my life. When, two years after the incident, a child was returned to us as my sister, my joy knew no bounds. I wanted to do everything for her, thinking she was the sister I lost.

But she was different, colder, seeing me almost as an enemy. I attributed it to the trauma of the years she was missing. But recent events made me dig deeper.”

She turned her piercing gaze to Helga. “Helga, you swapped my real sister with your own child, letting my father raise her. Did you never feel the weight of your deceit?"

The revelation sent shockwaves throughout the room.
