As Desmond waved his hand, Judith was shoved into the room. Everyone in the living room turned to look at her.

Her face shifted from pale to flushed in seconds, clearly unsettled.

Wilfried eyed her, his tone cold. "Where were you planning to go?"

Beside her was a suitcase.

Judith remained silent, her expression growing more and more uncomfortable.

Desmond stepped forward and said, "Mr. Cooper, we've uncovered some information about the orphanage, detailing how Juliet took your daughter's place. You should take a look."

He handed over a file, placing it in front of Wilfried.

As Wilfried read through it, he learned for the first time that Judith had been the one who found out about Arthur Town Orphanage all those years ago. She had known from the start that Aveline was his real daughter, but she had conspired with Hilda, allowing Juliet to take Aveline's place.

"Smack!"

Wilfried slammed the file shut, his face dark with fury as he glared at Judith. "You knew all along? Why did you do this?"

Judith looked back at him, her voice bitter. "I've been by your side all these years, without a child of my own. And you? You've spent all this time thinking only about your daughter. Did you ever consider my feelings?"
