Chapter 882

The room fell silent as the weight of the revelation hit everyone like a freight train. The fact that a newborn, so fragile, could suffocate when left face down on a soft surface was terrifying. Isaac's anger flared, "What a lowlife! How could anyone be so careless?"

He was the hospital's security guard, and he knew the cameras were down for maintenance that day. There was chaos from an incident, and no nurse was around in the nursery. He took it as a sign. He swapped one baby first, but when the baby in his arms started wailing, he switched again for another quiet baby."

He continued, "This makes it all clear. The child buried in our family plot, the one John accidentally caused to die, was actually your real daughter!"

Everyone reeled from the shock. Nobody saw this coming. The mystery that had haunted them for so long was finally laid bare.
