Sam received the message, but he chose to ignore it. Letting them fight each other would only benefit him.


    Despite his inner thoughts, Sam maintained his outwardposure. He feigned guilt and apologized to Den, “I’m sorry, Dad. I’ve been busy with the wedding preparations, and Monkey and Brody were overseeing things. Who knew it would turn out like this?”


    “Sigh.”


    Even with so many people in Gilliam Mansion, everyone was busy.


    “ming you now won’t help. Let’s see what this rebellious daughter ns to do!”


    Natalia watched the three people on the high tform with a smug smile on her cold and alluring face.


    “It seems my godfather has strong objections to me taking over the family. No matter… once I kill Pearl, everything will return to the beginning.”


    “And you, the useless former General, have been eliminated! Those who once followed you now serve me!”


    “I advise you all to cooperate. If you anger me, this ce will be a battlefield!”


    Den thought to himself, no wonder she chose this moment to break in; she was jealous of Pearl.


    The atmosphere was tense, and everyone was intimidated by Libby’s presence, as if heads would roll at any moment.


    The crowd murmured, mostly about Den.


    “Who would have thought the renowned phnthropist and entrepreneur Mr. Gilliam is actually the notorious head of the Gilliam family?”


    “Indeed, I didn’t expect it either. No wonder Mr. Gilliam wanted me to retract that headline newsst time…”


    “Gilliam family has done so many evil deeds over the years. Den is a hypocrite, and now his daughter’s betrayal is his karma!”


    Hearing the crowd insult her father, Pearl was anxious but didn’t know what to do.


    “Daddy, what should we do now?”


    She instinctively looked at her father, who stood there calmly and exined:


    “Everyone, don’t believe Libby’s lies. I raised her for over twenty years. Her jealousy was triggered when my biological daughter returned.”


    “She made a mistake recently and I disciplined her. I also arranged her marriage to Crete Lord Parker. She hates me and fabricated these lies to ruin my reputation.”Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    The crowd seemed to ept Den’s exnation somewhat. After all, he was annually recognized as a great phnthropist in Taswya.


    At that moment, a sweet and soft voice came from behind the crowd. It sounded childish and innocent.


    “He’s lying! He’s the bad man who took me!”


    Turning around, they saw two children. The boy looked about seven or eight years old, covered in blood but with determined eyes. The girl he held was pretty and adorable, dressed in a pink princess dress.


    Following them was a Che man in a servant’s uniform from Gilliam Mansion. His handsome face wasn’t hidden by the cheap clothes. It was Master Glenn.


    As soon as Glenn entered the wedding venue, he nodded at Kelvin as a greeting. His next words shocked everyone.


    “I can prove Esteban is telling the truth. I came to Che looking for my daughter and infiltrated Gilliam Mansion.”


    “What I saw was the most disgusting and vile trade in the world!”


    “And it was all orchestrated by the Gilliam family. There are witnesses and evidence. The rest will be for the judge to decide.”


    As he finished speaking, Kelvin led a group of police officers who had surrounded the area unnoticed.


    “Don’t move!”


    The situation reversed again.


    Libby thought she had seeded in seizing power and aimed her weapon at Den. Little did she know she had be a trapped bird herself, now falling into thew’s.


    Her original n was to kill everyone present!


    “Damn it, I was tricked by those Che couples.”


    With Taswya’s help, today’s police were all in in clothes, blending in as guests or staff, ready to act on Kelvin’s signal.


    An hour earlier…


    Following Sam’s map, Master Glenn quickly found Den’s secret “research base.” What he saw upon entering filled him with rage.


    With Eddie’s cooperation and support from Duke Peberdy of Taswya, they sessfully destroyed Den’s hideout and caught him red-handed.


    A third of the children were from Che; others were missing children from around the world.


    Though Duke Peberdy was a scoundrel in love affairs, he was serious about his work. Seeing so many young children from his country harmed, he furiously dered he would behead Den publicly.


    After persuasion from Glenn and Eddie, he agreed to take the surviving children to the hospital first.


    Glenn finally reunited with his precious daughter. Though it should have been a joyous asion, his daughter insisted on bringing along a dirty little beggar boy; otherwise, she wouldn’t leave with him.


    Helplessly, he agreed.


    He hurried back to the wedding venue with the two children, fearing for Kelvin and Cheyenne’s safety.


    With their crimes exposed, the Gilliam family’s reputation was ruined. Den faced betrayal from his adopted daughter and imminent arrest.


    Unwilling to surrender easily, Den quickly devised a n in his mind. Even if it cost him his life, he wanted to pave a way for the younger generation.


    “Sam, I’ll kill Libby. You take Pearl and your mother-inw and leave!”


    “Alright! I’ll act now.” Sam replied with a half-smile.


    As Den handed him the dagger, Sam unexpectedly stabbed him in the abdomen.


    The sound of the knife tearing through flesh was dull and prolonged.


    Den looked at him in disbelief. The face he knew so well showed no smile for the first time-only hatred!


    So this was Sam’s true nature.


    Warm blood sttered onto Sam’s pale face. His charming eyes were now devoid of warmth.


    Sam slowly withdrew the dagger, letting blood pool on the ground.


    “Surprised? Mr. Gilliam, Dad, Father-inw…”


    “You!”


    “Daddy!”


    Pearl couldn’t believe that the man she loved most had killed her father. But life had more blows in store for her.
