Chapter 381

"Did you see the news?" Jacklyn asked, getting straight to the point.Romy opened the door and stepped aside so she could come in."Yeah. I ran another DNA test with Lucy."She stopped by the couch, drew Lucy near, and whispered something to her. Lucy then offered a sweet greeting to Jacklyn before heading off to her room.Once Lucy was gone, Romy's expression turned serious. She let out a heavy sigh."You were right. Lucy isn't my child." Saying it out loud made her chest tighten. "If Lucy isn't mine, then where is my real child?"She was starting to fall apart."Do you want to know where your child is?" Jacklyn asked.Romy looked up at her. "You know where my child is?"Jacklyn pulled out a clear plastic bag containing a soft strand of hair. "You should run another DNA test. This child is most likely yours."Romy froze for a second before taking the bag from her hand.As Romy hesitated, Jacklyn continued, "I'll come back tomorrow. These hospitals stay open late. We could h

"Why are you coming to me about your son?" Penelope snapped, her voice laced with irritation."That's exactly what I should be asking you," Romy shot back, eyes blazing with fury. "Noah and I took a DNA test. He's my son!"Penelope's smugness crumbled in an instant. Guilt washed over her face as she stammered, "I-I don't know what you're talking about.""You don't know? Or are you hoping that playing dumb will get you out of this?" Jacklyn cut in sharply, her eyes cold and unflinching. "You're the one who switched Romy's baby all those years ago."Penelope shot to her feet, momentarily forgetting to question how they'd simply gotten in."It wasn't me. And anyway, where's your proof?" she retorted.As long as she kept denying it, there was nothing solid tying her to what had happened all those years ago."The children are all the proof we need," Jacklyn stated coldly."How can they be proof? I was in labor myself five years ago. Do you really think I had time to sneak off and sw

Eugene's eyes flew wide. He stared at Jacklyn, stunned. His hands were trembling at his sides, and his lips were quivering. "Jackie?"All the feelings he'd buried for so long surged to the surface, crashing over him like a tidal wave."It's really you! You came back!"He rushed forward and pulled Jacklyn into his arms before she had a chance to react, whispering, "I'm sorry, Jackie. I'm so sorry. I was wrong. You punished me by leaving me behind for five years. Can you come back now?"His voice broke with tears, thick with guilt and regret. He would've paid any price just to see her again. As long as he could hold her like this, as long as she came back, nothing else mattered. "Eugene." Jacklyn shoved him away without a second thought, her expression cold, laced with disgust. "Don't make me sick."She stepped back, creating space between them. Then, she leveled him with a glare as sharp as ice.Eugene stood frozen. "What?" The Jacklyn he remembered had never spoken to him lik

Chapter 384

Stunned, Eugene froze for a beat, his hand numb. He inhaled slowly, then exhaled, his anger receding as his gaze met Jacklyn's. His expression shifted into something more complicated."Jackie, I'm sorry. I'd hoped we'd reunite under better circumstances, in a better place. I never pictured it like this.""What difference does it make?" Jacklyn asked, finding him absurd.Romy and Penelope were standing right there, and still, he had the nerve to utter those words. Just how shameless could he be?Eugene stepped forward, stopping just inches from Jacklyn, and reached for her hand. But before his fingers could touch hers, she pulled away.He glanced awkwardly at his hand, hanging uselessly in the air. A flicker of disappointment crossed his eyes."I was wrong, terribly wrong. And I've spent the last five years paying for it."He pointed toward her old room. "I've slept there every night since you left. I haven't gone a single day without thinking about you. Jackie, if you come back,

Chapter 385

Eugene turned his head, and there was Liam, standing tall with effortless grace. His eyes went wide. Instinctively, he glanced at the security guards by the door.But the men who'd been standing at attention just moments ago were now crumpled on the floor, groaning in pain. Their limbs twisted at grotesque angles.Liam reached out his hand to Jacklyn, his voice soft. "I'm here to take you home."Without a second thought, Jacklyn stepped past Eugene and slipped her hand into Liam's. "Let's go," she said quietly.Eugene knew there was no stopping Liam now.Once they were out of Lloyd Manor and settled in the car, Jacklyn turned to Liam, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "How did you know I was there?"Liam buckled his seatbelt and smiled. "I stopped by the apartment first. Theo told me.""Where's Romy?"Jacklyn leaned forward, peering out the window. Romy was standing by the side of the road. They called her over, and she climbed into the car.…Back at the apartment, the mood

Chapter 386

Ian's accusation hit Penelope like a bucket of ice water, freezing her to the bone. She'd almost forgotten just how deeply he was tied to all of this.Back when she gave birth, she'd told him Noah was his. That single lie had earned her his unwavering loyalty and his constant dedication to the Lloyds and Noah.But last night, everything unraveled. The truth that Noah was Romy's son was now backed by undeniable DNA proof. And the moment Ian saw the news, he called Penelope without hesitation, demanding answers.When Penelope stayed silent, Ian's expression darkened like a gathering storm."Talk!" he snapped, his voice sharp enough to make her flinch.She stammered, "I-I don't know anything! It was Amanda. She's the one who did this."She sucked in a breath. Then, the words came rushing out. "She's the one who changed my baby to a boy so I could marry into the Lloyds. That's all I know."But Ian didn't believe a word of it. His eyes dropped, and his grip on the phone tightened unt

Chapter 387

Eugene's eyes lit up with sudden clarity. If Anna were actually Jacklyn, then every hurdle in Lloyd Group's partnership talks could vanish in an instant.He froze mid-step before turning to face her, his eyes blazing. "Jackie, it's been years. Let's leave the past where it belongs. Come back to Lloyd Manor."Jacklyn stared at him, stunned by his nerve. Even now, he wouldn't quit."Are you out of your mind? We're done. Leave now, or I'll have security drag you out."But Eugene stood his ground. He couldn't let her go. He'd lived through the heartbreak of losing her once. He wasn't sure he could survive it a second time."I'm not leaving, Jackie. I know I messed up before. But if you come back to Lloyd Manor, I'll give you everything, even Lloyd Group."Jacklyn scoffed. "Thanks, but I'll pass."Eugene's expression darkened. He stepped forward, hand reaching toward her, just as the door swung open again.Theodore, nestled in Liam's arms, glanced between them, blinking. "Mommy, wha

Chapter 388

Eugene stumbled away, a chill washing over him like he'd been dropped into a frozen wasteland. He couldn't bring himself to face the truth. But whatever it was, it wasn't Jacklyn's problem.Jacklyn turned from the closed door to Liam. "What are you doing here today? Don't you have to be at the hospital?"Lara had been admitted a while back. Even with everything going on with Romy, Jacklyn had noticed that Liam hadn't visited in days.He shook his head. "I'm not going back. Not unless—"He trailed off, the words catching in his throat."Unless what?" Jacklyn asked, curiosity sparking in her eyes."Unless I marry Cecily."…Meanwhile, in the VIP hospital room, Cecily peeled an orange and held a slice to Lara's lips. "Feeling any better today?" she asked softly.Lara sighed and patted her chest. "This sickness isn't going anywhere until Liam marries you. God knows what's gotten into him. He's obsessed with Jacklyn. He doesn't even care about me anymore."Just look how many days

Chapter 389

"This is all your fault! I would've won if you hadn't slammed into me!" Noah snapped.Lucy got up, brushing dirt off her clothes, and shoved him hard. "It was an accident, and I'll apologize, but that doesn't give you the right to push me."Penelope saw Noah get shoved and rushed over, panic rising in her chest. She stepped in front of him and glared at Lucy, her eyes blazing. "How dare you put your hands on him? You're such a rude little brat!"Lucy lowered her head as Penelope scolded her, lips pressed tight in stubborn silence.Romy's heart ached at the sight. She stepped in front of Lucy to shield her. "How can you talk to her like that? You know perfectly well she's your…"She stopped herself, unwilling to drag adult issues into a moment between kids. Lucy might not have been her biological daughter, but that didn't make her any less innocent.Penelope shot her a venomous glare. "What are you going to say? If she weren't a girl, we wouldn't be dealing with all this drama in

Chapter 390

Eugene's face tightened, but he set his jaw and said firmly, "Maybe Jackie isn't thinking about me right now, but I can win her back, little by little. She and I have been through so much, Liam."No one knows her like I do. If I don't give up, she'll come back to me.""Is that so? Then, be my guest," Liam responded flatly.With that, he turned and walked off, leaving Eugene standing alone.…During a break in filming, Penelope had just returned to Lloyd Manor and settled into her seat when Lydia stormed in like a hurricane.She marched straight up to Penelope, eyes bloodshot and blazing with fury, as if Penelope were the enemy."How dare you! You've been lying to us about Noah this whole time? We've been too easy on you, Penelope. That's why you think you can get away with something like this!"Lydia rolled up her sleeves, tossing aside every ounce of aristocratic restraint. This wasn't just about a lie. It was about the Lloyd family's bloodline.If Penelope had the gall to sw
