Chapter 466

When Ethan leapt to defend Vanessa-just as he'd done so many times before- Adah's anger surged so fiercely she could barely contain herself.

Without thinking, she lashed out and kicked him hard, sending Ethan sprawling to the floor. The blow knocked the wind out of him, and for a moment he lay there, stunned, struggling to catch his breath.

"Mom, what is wrong with you?" Ethan finally gasped, bewildered.

Tears streamed down Adah's cheeks as she glared at her son. "Ethan, do you have any idea? Vanessa is actually your father's illegitimate daughter."

Of course, Adah knew Vanessa wasn't really Nathan's child from an affair, but that didn't matter now. There was no reason to tell the truth. All she wanted was to make her own son despise Vanessa.

From this day forward, that little brat would never have a moment's peace. The pain and humiliation Claire had suffered in her past life, Vanessa would suffer all over again every last bit of it. Adah wanted to see the look on Nathan's, Sophia's, and Garnett Brown's faces when they saw Vanessa endure the same torment.

Ethan's eyes went wide in shock. "Mom, what are you talking about? That's not true!"

"I'm not lying," Adah insisted, her voice trembling with emotion. "Vanessa is your father's daughter-with Dr. Sophia, the director at Cresthaven General Hospital." "Ethan, do you know why your real sister disappeared right after she was born?" Ethan frowned, thinking back. "Wasn't she kidnapped by traffickers?"
