"B-But even if I'm not your biological child, you've raised me for so many years. I'm not an ungrateful child.

"I know how much my parents love me. Even though my sister has returned, I know my parents would still treat me the same. What reason would I have to harm my sister?"

Charlotte continued, shifting from accusation to gratitude. She played the emotional card heavily, which caused Arthur and Juliana to feel even more pained and guilty.

They apologized to her, saying, "We hear you. We know you're the best child. We're sorry, Charlotte. We shouldn't have doubted you. Both you and Velda are our precious children."

With just a few words, Arthur and Juliana were completely convinced of Charlotte's innocence. Charlotte smirked inwardly. The scene left Lucy and Matthew speechless.

"Thank you for believing in me. Since you want to confront my sister and my brother-in-law to clarify the truth, I'm willing to oblige. I don't want my sister to misunderstand me as that'll harm our sisterly bond. It'll only make you guys sad."

Charlotte pulled Arthur and Juliana to her side, pretending to be eager to confront Lucy and Matthew.

Matthew frowned deeply. She was a cunning woman, indeed, to be able to distort the facts so easily.
