Chapter 135


    Any man would feel a punch in the gut seeing a video like that of the woman he’s into, especially a man


    like Cameron, who always carried himself with a sense of pride and superiority.


    Lillian was truly panic–stricken this time, her eyes rimmed red with the pressure. Her gaze met Faith’s


    just as she was about to speak.


    “Lillian, you need to take the fall for this one. Cut ties with Spencer, and after a scandal like this, there’s


    no way Michael will wee you into the family.”


    In a way, her words echoed Robert’s sentiments. Tears streamed down Lillian’s face as the reality hit


    her hard. “Faith, I—‘


    “Don’t tell me you can’t bear to leave Spencer. Listen, if you don’t do what I say, you won’t see a dime


    in the future,” Faith said with clear impatience in her voice.


    That statement left Lillian speechless, a look of mortification dawning in her eyes.


    Robert and Miranda chimed in, trying tofort her. “Lillian, don’t worry, we’ll make sure you get a


    hefty sum.”

    With Faith taking the lead, the three of them were now a united front. Lillian felt an unprecedented


    humiliation engulfing her heart; years of cunning nning, and it had alle to this.


    She couldn’t stand it. The injustice was unbearable!


    Her phone rang again. It was the orphanage director. Instinct told her it must be urgent. She answered


    the call with a sense of dread, only to hear the director’s anxious voice on the other end. “Lillian,


    someone’se looking for our orphanage. There’s talk of ady who lost her daughter years ago,


    and there’s a slight issue with your file. Come quickly to sort it out. If it’s really you, then Lillian, you


    might just be the bona fide rich girl you never knew you were.”


    Lillian thought she had misheard. “Director, are you sure you’ve got your facts straight?”


    “I’m dead serious, Lillian. They’re here, and we need to do a DNA test pronto. We can’t dy this.”


    Lillian wasn’t particrly interested though. She figured it was some rich family’s missing daughter. No


    matter how wealthy they were, they surely couldn’t hold a candle to the Haywoods or the Dorseys.


    A wave of despondency washed over her, her heart heavy with sorrow. Yet the director’s next words


    perked her up. “Lillian, they’ve asked me not to reveal their identity, but let me tell you, their family’s


    international standing is quite high, even higher than the Haywoods‘, andparable to the Dorseys‘.


    They also have a son who has been searching for his sister all these years, which shows how deeply


    they care for their lost kin. If your records match, you won’t have to worry for the rest of your life. You’ll


    be in a position to help Bri then.”

    International standing? That caught Lillian’s attention, her eyes lighting up with hope. “Mark, you’re


    telling me the truth, right?”


    The director couldn’t help but chuckle, genuinely hoping for a good oue for these kids. “Of course,


    it’s the truth. If you can make it now, hurry over. They’re pressing hard for this, and just between us, the


    Clements family is involved in the search. If the Clements are stepping in, you can imagine the status


    of the other party.”


    Lillian’s heart raced with excitement. Meanwhile, the other three in the living room were ring at her,


    annoyed that she was still on the phone.


    Lillian couldn’t care less. After hanging up, she turned to Miranda with an electrified look in her eyes.


    “Miranda, the director says I need to go back for a DNA test. I have to return to the orphanage right


    now.”


    If it turned out she was the lost heiress of a noble lineage, why should she grovel at the feet of the


    Haywoods any longer?


    The Haywoods, and Brielle, soon enough, they would all be looking up to her.
