    Chapter 548 The Daughter Of ire


    Fortunately, Silvia was quick to react.


    She caught the te in time to avoid dropping everything on the ground.


    Still, Avery''s words were rumbling like a bolt from the blue in her head.


    Allie was married to Avery''s father? She even said that Avery is also her kid? How can that be? But


    Cayden said that they''ve done a DNA test to make sure that they''re not biological siblings. The results


    can''t be wrong. They''re not rted by blood, but Allie''s certainly connected to Avery and her father.


    Silvia remembered clearly that Allie only had one child—Cayden. The child had been her instrument to


    cling to the Moore family, but unfortunately for her, Jeffrey did not recognize Cayden as a legitimate


    child of the Moore family. He had been waiting for Lily to give birth to a son instead.


    Bruce was timid and wielded little power. He could not get his son to join the Moore family.


    Back then, Bruce had fallen in love with a university student. He was too preupied courting other


    girls to have any time to care about Allie, so he began paying even less attention to Allie''s child.


    Without Bruce''s protection, Lily began putting pressure on Allie, forcibly taking the car and house that


    Bruce had given to Allie before threatening her to leave Ackleton.


    Allie''s dream of enjoying life as the wife of a wealthy man had been ruined. Yet, she had no other way


    of earning a living. She had thought of returning to her job as a dancer, but she had had a taste of


    luxury, so how could she ever return to a life of hard work? Her impoverished state made her flee


    Ackleton to search for another way to live.


    Back then, she had felt that Cayden was a burden. Afraid that he would impede her in her search for a


    new patron, she had mercilessly left Cayden in an orphanage and never checked up on him.


    Allie''s departurested for over half a year, and it was as if she had disappeared without a trace. No


    one knew where she had gone to.


    Silvia did not know what happened during that time.


    Later on, she heard that ire, who was about to give birth to her baby, had taken in the homeless


    Allie.


    Even though William was under investigation and their family was already in hot water, the kind ire


    still lent Allie a helping hand.


    Allie rested in ire''s house for a whole month and a little more. She kept irepany the entire


    time. When ire went to a remote ce to look for her husband and her pretermbor started, Allie


    was the only one with her. She was also the one who said that she saw ire give birth to a stillborn


    baby.


    Silvia found the incident fishy at that time.


    Even though ire seemed weak, she was not in poor health. Furthermore, when she went to the


    hospital with ire for thetter''s checkups, the doctor said that ire and her baby were healthy.


    Silvia could not wrap her mind around why ire''s baby suddenly ended up dead.


    It was only muchter on when she overheard Allie''s conversation with another woman did she find out


    that the supposedly stillborn baby was only part of Allie''s nefarious n.


    She did not know why Allie did that, but from then on, she knew that ire''s baby was still alive.


    She made a bold guess. Is Avery ire''s biological daughter? Their faces, eyes, demeanor, and voice


    seem so alike. How can they be so much alike if they aren''t rted?


    The world is big, and there are some unrted strangers who look almost identical to each other, but


    Avery and Allie had a history.


    Silvia was starting to ponder the possibility of Avery''s connection to ire.


    The very thought of it made Silvia''s heart race.


    She had the urge to rush in and ask for more details, but the immediate confrontation would seem a


    little too direct. Things would be immensely awkward if it turned out to be a mere misunderstanding.


    Not only would ire be disappointed, but Avery would be too.


    Silvia''s hand fell back to her side.


    I''ll have to look into this first. I''ll only ask them about this when I have more evidence. This will be great


    news if Avery turns out to be ire''s daughter.


    At night, the prison in Ackleton was dimly lit with a warm yellow bulb.


    It was the men''s prison, and both sides were sectioned off with walls to form average-sized grid rooms.


    There were top bunks and bottom bunks, and in each room were seven to eight inmates. Zayne, who


    was thin and a little hunched, had a towel draped on his shoulders. He had just washed himself up, and


    he was still holding onto his basin as he walked toward the cell. He looked exhausted. Right as he


    pushed open the iron door, he saw the male inmates standing up, staring at him as a predator would at


    its prey.


    rm bells started ringing in his head. Just as he was about to spin around to scurry out of the cell, he


    heard the iron door close and lock behind him.


    A fat man stood in front of the door and swept his lecherous gaze over him. “My, Zayne, you''re finally


    done. You''re even more wishy-washy than a woman. Our boss has been waiting for you for eons.”


    Zayne lifted his head and nced at the fiercest-looking middle-aged man fearfully who was


    surrounded by the others in the cell. He shuddered.


    There is always a king in everynd, and a prison cell is no exception. Evidently, the big boss of the


    prison was the middle-aged man—Scar.

    Scar was covered in tattoos from almost head to toe, and he even had a knife scar on his face from his


    brow to his lip. He looked terrifying. Furthermore, he had an aggressive, ruthless gaze. Anyone who


    looked at him would find themselves shivering in fright.


    Zayne could sense his imminent doom.


    Suppressing his nausea, he walked over to Scar and said humbly, “Scar, you must be tired today. Let


    me give you a massage.”


    “You can skip the massage, but I want you to rub this ce of mine. It''s rather itchy...” Scar said


    lustfully before pinning the skinny Zayne.


    Zayne was terrified and wanted to scream for help, but the other inmates seemed to have found a tape


    from somewhere to tape his mouth. Despair overwhelmed Zayne''s mind.


    As he was tormented by Scar, the urge to destroy everything maniacally formed in his mind.


    I''m going to remember everything that happened here. This is all because of that b*tch Avery! I used to


    believe that she was a kind person who understood me. I loved and protected her, and despite her


    refusal to have intimate rtions with me during our two-year rtionship, I never forced her. Who


    would have thought that she was having an affair with Cayden? She feigned moral superiority and


    prevented me from touching her despite being involved with Cayden! Not only did she betray me, but


    she also sent me to prison with the very man she was cheating on me with. I''ve been in prison for over


    a year, and every day is a living hell. But those scandalous scoundrels are still enjoying their freedom


    out there.


    Zayne was livid, and he had nothing but resentment for them.


    He would remember for an eternity the pain they had given to him. He vowed to make them suffer the


    humiliation he had to endure.
