Chapter 5
On the other side.
The Kinsmans’ residence was brightly lit.
When William returned home with Ezra in his arms, Lucian’s personal doctor was already waiting for them alongside a restless Gianna.
Never in her wildest dreams would Gianna have imagined that William would bring back the little ba stard not just alive but unscathed.
It wasn’t easy for her to find an opportunity to kill him without anyone noticing.
She didn’t expect to fail again.
“What went wrong?!” she wondered.
William handed the child to the doctor, Jameson Smith. “Something strange happened to Luci. He can speak now. Please give him a thorough examination.”
Everyone was shocked. Jameson’s eyes even widened as he said, “Really?”
Lucian’s illness was a huge problem that had been plaguing him for five years. Even the world’s best medical experts couldn’t make Lucian speak. How did he recover after going missing?
Ezra sighed helplessly. “Really!”
He had no choice but to pretend that he had recovered from a serious illness and allowed other people to examine him.
However, he had many ways to prevent these idiots from discovering that he was a fake.
When Jameson heard that Lucian finally opening his mouth to speak, he shivered with excitement and immediately carried the boy upstairs.
He needed to figure out what had happened to the boy immediately!
Ezra allowed himself to be upstairs, but he suddenly felt a cold murderous gaze fall on him. He looked over vigilantly and found that the gaze came from a beautiful woman with tears in her eyes.
His first instinct was that she wasn’t a good person!
“Who is this beautiful woman?
“My scu mbag dad’s second wife?
“My stepmom?” he wondered.

In the large, ornate living room of the Kinsman’s residence, William was sitting on the couch with his slender legs crossed. He took off his black coat, revealing the well-made white shirt he was wearing underneath. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and he looked noble and
calm.
Gianna stood beside him, feeling uneasy.
She never thought that the ba stard would not just come back unscathed, but even started speaking!
That brat knew too many of her secrets.
He might even know that she was responsible for his fall at the cemetery. She decided that she couldn’t just sit around and wait for that brat to expose her crime.
So, she asked worriedly, “William, what happened to Luci? The woman who kidnapped him… Did you find out who she is?”
She bit her lip and started analyzing the situation with bloodshot eyes. “What has she done to Luci? How did she make him speak in just a day? This is too strange. We can’t just let her go!”
Her voice made William even more annoyed. He closed his eyes to rest his mind, saying, “I’ll deal with this. It’s getting late. You should go.”
Gianna refused to do so.
She wouldn’t be at ease until she shifted the blame to the mysterious woman, and she needed to keep an eye on the brat and shut him up too.
“William, can you let me stay here tonight? I’m… I’m worried about Luci.”
Moreover, they were getting married soon.
But until now, she had not even touched William’s hand. His attitude toward her today had clearly worsened because of the ba sta rd, too. She couldn’t just leave like this.
Unfortunately for her, William wasn’t in the mood to deal with her at all. He opened his dark eyes and glared at her as a warning “Go back!”
It was clear from the look in his eyes that he was about to lose his temper

Chapter 5
Gianna didn’t dare to be presumptuous anymore. She had no choice but to leave the Kinsmans’ residence.
The moment she got into her car, her expression changed, and the viciousness under her delicate makeup came into full view. She tossed her bag on the seat and questioned her assistant, who was driving the car, in a gloomy voice. “What the hell is going on? I told you to throw that brat off the mountain, didn’t I? How did he come back safe and sound?” she shouted.
That brat not only returned, but even started speaking!
He was like a ticking time bomb!
If that brat revealed her secrets, everything she had worked for so many years would be finished.
Damian Clarke, her assistant, didn’t know what went wrong either. He said, “Don’t be upset, Miss Clarke. There’s something strange about this. I did send someone to throw young Mr. Kinsman down the mountain, but I heard the mysterious woman had nothing to do with his rescue!”
“She’s not involved? Then what’s going on? Go and check it out!”
“Yes, Miss!” There was one more thing that Damian had to report, so he said, “One more thing, Miss.”
“What is it now?”
“The organizer of the charity gala tonight sent us a message saying that you’ve been banned from the event. But what’s worse is that they’ve made the news public. You’re now trending online.”
“Shocking news! Gianna Clarke, the Charity Princess of Melburgh, made fraudulent donations!”
“Gianna Clarke exposed!”
“Fake philanthropist Gianna Clarke is apparently banned from the International Council of Nonprofits!”
“Gianna Clarke has been removed from the guest list of the charity gala!”
Several headlines became instant trending topics, and their popularity was still growing.
The headlines were even tagged with the word “HOT.”
Gianna’s face distorted with anger as she checked the trending topics on Twitter as well as the growing number of related tweets on her
