The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 623

Chapter 623

Lucy eagerly grabbed Carly's hands, her eyes filled with hope. Right now, Carly

was her only chance at survival. She truly believed Carly would save her.

Carly looked at her and called out softly, "Mom."

Lucy immediately hugged Carly tightly. "Carly, I'm here."

Carly let herself be hugged. Then, in a quiet voice, she said, "Mom, Nigel is starting to suspect my identity."

"What?" Lucy froze. "Carly, why would Mr. Hampton suspect your identity?"

"Mom, it's because I went to him and begged for your release. I wanted him to let you go, but he refused, saying you committed murder and deserved punishment.

"So, I begged him on my knees. He said you're just my foster mother, not my biological mother. That was when he started suspecting my identity," Carly explained with an aggrieved look.

Lucy felt a wave of emotion wash over her. "Carly, you did all that for me? I thought... I thought you had abandoned me."

"Mom, how could I abandon you? Back in the hospital, when I accused you, that was just a tactic to buy time. I was never going to leave you behind. But now, I've failed. I couldn't save you. Worse, Mr. Hampton is questioning my identity. Mom, what should I do now?

"If I lose my identity as the richest heiress, the Tate family won't want me, and the Hampton family wouldn't want me either. I'll be left with nothing. I've been better than Celine all my life, but if I fail now, she'll crush me beneath her feet.
