Chapter 154

What?

Acacia’s daughter?!

Acacia was shaking uncontrollably, her mind going blank as if she was struck by lightning.

This had to be true.

The more she looked at the girl on the screen, the more she looked like her.

“No way… No way…” Acacia muttered to herself.

“Haha, what a ridiculous and ironic picture.” George stared at Acacia’s face, laughing in a glum tone, “as a mother, you can’t even recognize your own daughter. What a ‘responsible‘ woman you are.”

The room was in an uproar. Like a boulder that had been dropped into a tranquil sea, his words were stirring up ma**ive waves.

Half of the people were staring at the terrified Acacia on stage.

The other half were looking at the icy Thaddeus in the audience.

“Acacia! What the hell is going on?!” Elspeth almost collapsed, yanking Acacia’s arm and whispering angrily, “Who is he? How did he get in here? What’s your relationship with him?!”

At this moment, Una, fearing her d*rty laundry would be aired, rushed at George.

“You bastard! How dare you slander Acacia! I’ll never let you get away with this!”

George reacted swiftly and sidestepped Una’s attack. Una stumbled forward, landing face–first on the floor.

There were sniggers all around. Una’s look was just too embarra**ing!

Mr. Stirling was also embarra**ed. He really didn’t want to admit that Una was his wife.

“Guards… Guards, come quick!” Acacia screamed in panic, no longer caring about Una. She just wanted George to disappear, “Get this jerk out of here! Now!”

Seeing that Acacia still refused to admit her faults, George was filled with anger and was about to say something

Just then, a deep, chilling voice came from behind.

“No one is taking him away.”

Thaddeus was furious.

His face was glum as he strode towards Acacia.

He looked at Acacia, who was shaking with fear on the stage. She used to be as kind as an angel and as warm as the sun, who had always proclaimed she only loved Thaddeus.

He held his breath. Acacia now seemed terrifyingly unfamiliar.

“Thad… Thad, someone is framing me! They hired this jerk to slander me! To falsely accuse me?

As Acacía defended herself frantically, she grabbed her skirt and ran towards Thaddeus, nearly tripping over the hem.

The short distance felt like an eternity.

Finally reaching Thaddeus, Acacia’s legs were so weak she could hardly stand. She dutched Thaddeus arm, her fingers digging into his suit his skin.

“Thad, from childhood till now… I’ve only ever loved you! Even when we were apart for three years, I never changed my heart! This jerk is here to cause trouble! You can’t believe his nonsense! You must believe me!”

“Haha… Only loving him? I don’t know if that’s true, but how many times have we been intimate? Can you even count?” George laughed, replaceing Acadia’s lies surprisingly exciting.

“I’ll sue you! I’ll sue you for defamation! For spreading rumors! I’ll call the police!” Acacia pointed at George.

“Sue me? I’m going to sue you for being irresponsible and abandoning a child!”

George had no interest in arguing with Acacia. He pulled out a report from his pocket and threw it at her, “This is the paternity test of you and our daughter! It’s all written clearly. What else can you say?!”

Given that situation, there was no turning back for him now.

So, might as well drag Acacia down with him!

The paternity test shocked everyone!

“My goodness! He’s Acacia’s lover?! What is Acacia thinking! She has a great boyfriend like Mr. Thaddeus, why would she need a lover??”

“You probably don’t understand? Sometimes people just want to try different things!”

“She even had a child with him and abandoned it, then planned to marry into a rich family. Acacia is so heartless! That’s her child!”

“This is huge news!”

“It’s over… Mr. Thaddeus has been cheated on!

In the midst of the chaos. Jareth walked over, picked up the paternity test from the floor. He examined it carefully, and then showed it to Thaddeus, making sure everyone around could hear,

“Thaddeus, this report is issued by a very authoritative testing agency. It should be real

Thaddeus pressed his l*ps tightly together and closed his eyes slowly.

Acacia’s last sliver of hope had vanished and a wave of fear surged in her heart!

“Thad… I, I was away from you before. I had severe depression! You know all about this! When I was in the country, the condition was serious. I suffered a lot! I… I did many things that I couldn’t control! I didn’t even know what I was doing

At this point, Acacia could only bring up her “depression” again to invoke Thaddeus‘ sympathy.

Thaddeus had also experienced hardships. He’d be relent on hearing that.

On the stage, Elspeth, who witnessed all of this, was both angry and desperate.

She was angry because Acacia’s arrogance had finally led to her downfall.

She was desperate because Acacia indirectly admitted that she had a relationship with George and had a child with him. These were all true!

“Ha! Depression?! Acacia, are you joking?! How could a heartless woman like you have depression?” George laughed loudly.

Just then, the big screen changed again!

A diagnosis report suddenly appeared and that shocked everyone!

“You didn’t expect it, did you? The psychologist who ‘treated‘ you all these years also kept a backup! You took away the fake report, but he kept the original! Just in case something unexpected happened and he got dragged into it!”

George thought about the hellish days Acacia had been living these days, and he was so angry that he spat at her fiercely, “Depression! I think you should go and check whether you have STDs or not!”

“Shut up! Shut up!”

Acacia was so angry that her face turned red. But she still played the part of the victim and stared at Thaddeus with teary eyes, “Thad… Don’t believe… Don’t believe in him…

Ah!”

Thaddeus‘ eyes were icy cold as he pulled his arm away. Acacia nearly fell to the ground as she swayed.

The anger and humiliation of being deeply deceived, coupled with some regret that had nowhere to vent and mingled emotions, had made his heart hammer.

In an instant, he curled his l*ps. Tears were spinning in his eyes and he laughed with a trembling voice.

He was laughing at his own blindness and stupidity.

He was also laughing at himself for missing Evadne for three years because of Acacia’s lies, and hurting her heart again and again.

No wonder Evadne hated him so much.

At this moment, he even started to hate himself.

“Acacia, let’s break up.”

“Thad… What did you say…?”

Thaddeus‘ handsome and cold face became blurry in Acacia’s eyes. And as if someone had hit her hard in the back of the head, she pa**ed out.

Suddenly, the doors of the banquet hall swung open.

Four police officers walked solemnly towards Acacia, who was shaking all over with fear!

However, the police didn’t stop in front of her. They walked past her and went straight to Una.

“What… what are you doing?!” Una’s l*ps were trembling, and she barely managed to ask in a sharp voice. She was trying her best to get herself back on her feet.

“Una, right?”

A police officer stepped forward, took out a pair of handcuffs and just put them on Una’s wrists, “You are now officially arrested for murder for hire! You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court!”
