The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 535 Years of Love was a Joke

Yvette let out a mocking laugh. Compared to how devastated Charles was, her calm, amused look, was downright cruel.

"Charles, do you still dare claim that you and Vivian shared a loving marriage? Now that you've discovered the daughter you've cherished and raised with so much love isn't even your own flesh and blood, how does it feel?"

"Grandpa Charles, take a look at this too." Hector handed the other envelope to Charles. "Take a look at this report."

Charles didn't have the courage to look. "Hector, I can't... Give it to Marcus."

Charles closed his eyes, tears streamed down his aged face.

All these years, he had believed that he and his wife were childhood sweethearts who were truly in love and that their marriage was a destined union.

Unexpectedly, everything Yvette said was true.

And all it took was a single paternity test to shatter his lifelong faith and devotion.

"Hector, let me do it." Marcus took the envelope from Hector's hands. He opened it, pulled out the test results, and read it carefully. After a while, he said indifferently, "Grandpa, Dad is your biological son."

Charles' vision went black, and he fell heavily onto the floor.

"Grandpa Charles!"

"Grandpa!"

"Grandpa Charles!"

Hector, Marcus, and Natalie all screamed, and the room instantly descended into chaos.
