Chapter 1904
her heart. Why had life dragged her so low while Carola continued to live in comfort and dignity? She simply couldn’t accept it.
“We already know what you and Baker did,” Carola said coldly.
Holley remained silent.
She had anticipated this day would come.
It wasn’t just Belinda and Lucas anymore; now even the entire Happer family knew the truth.
Holley knew Carola must have already reunited with Belinda.
But what about her own daughter?
Holley’s greatest concern was Kylee.
Was Kylee safe? Was she doing well?
Holley finally lifted her eyes to Carola. “The baby swap was planned by Baker and me, and we admit it. We’ll accept whatever punishment you want to give us. But my daughter—she’s innocent. She had nothing to do with it. She has always believed you were her mother. So, Carola, I beg you… please spare her.”
Carola let out a sharp, icy scoff. “Innocent? She stole my blood to run a DNA test in secret. I know exactly when she discovered the truth about her origins. And you expect me to believe your words now?”
Holley’s face soured instantly.
It was clear now that the Happer family knew far more than Holley had ever imagined.
Yet she still refused to give up. Biting her lip hard, she forced out, “Even so, Kylee has lived with you as your daughter for more than twenty years. Do you really have the heart to hurt her?”
Carola’s jaw tightened, her teeth clenched as she glared at Holley. “When you harmed my daughter, you should have known the price you’d pay. You, Baker, and Kylee—I won’t let any of you off. Your family stole Belinda from me for so many years. Every time I think of that, I want to tear you apart with my own hands.”
Then, with a low, mocking sneer, she added, “But don’t worry. I won’t actually do that. Murder is a crime, after all—something I would never commit. Besides, death would be a mercy for you, and I have no intention of letting you off so easily.”

At her words, a chill raced down Holley’s spine, cold sweat breaking out across her back. Panic seized her chest.
“Carola,” she pleaded, “do whatever you want to me or to Baker. But I beg you, just spare my daughter. Even if… even if she knew the truth about her parentage before, she never harmed you. She always treated you like family—”
Carola cut her off sharply. “But she tried to harm my daughter. For that alone, she is beyond forgiveness. And you—”
Her voice sharpened like a blade. “Even now, you plotted to poison Belinda with a deadly toxin. Holley, calling you a monster would be an insult to monsters.”
She paused, her eyes glinting dangerously. “Did it never occur to you that your sins might bring retribution down upon the one you love most?”
Holley’s face turned deathly pale.
Her eyes widened with terror as she stammered, “W-what are you planning? Carola, please, calm down. Don’t hurt my daughter. I beg you, don’t hurt her.”
Her voice broke as she cried out, “Carola, I’ll kneel before you. Whatever you want to do, do it to me, but spare my daughter.”
