You, Me And Our Genus Twins

"Sebastian, you're slandering us!" Stephen yelled angrily, "My mother is a good person. Why would she kill someone? Leigh's grandfather's death must have been an accident. He could not have been killed by my mother and uncle!"

"Yes. I haven't found the person who killed Leigh's grandfather. He has gone abroad, so it isn't easy for me to find him. It may take some time, but Stephen, ask yourself, do you believe in these coincidences?"

Sebastian sneered, "Think about it. Why did Leigh's grandfather not die sooner or later, but die exactly when he found the witness he had worked so hard to look for to testify at the police station? You keep saying that this is an accident, but listen to your conscience and tell me. Do you believe it?"

"I believe it!" Stephen declared loudly. "My mother is not the kind of person you claim her to be. She is not!"

"Okay. I admit that the driver of the truck that killed Leigh's grandfather has not yet been found. It's just my speculation that he was murdered by your uncle and mother, so let's not touch on this topic first! Let's talk about something else."

Sebastian looked at him and said, "Stephen, let me ask you. Since you said that your mother is a kind woman, why did she ignore Leigh after getting involved in the hit-and-run incident with your uncle that took Leigh's parents' lives? If this happened to you, would you have done the same?"

"I... My mother compensated her with money!" Stephen stammered, "It's not written in your material, but my uncle and mother paid Leigh more than a hundred thousand dollars."

"Indeed. Your uncle and your mother paid Leigh more than a hundred thousand dollars." Sebastian nodded and continued, "But Leigh was only six years old at that time. After her parents died, she only had her grandfather, but he died soon after. Do you think a six-year-old girl knows how to keep a hundred thousand dollars? Anyone with a conscience would care about her life. The least they could do was to make sure that she was not abused or bullied and could grow up in an ordinary family, but what did your uncle and your mother do? They just did the bare minimum, yet you are brazenly defending your mother, saying that she is a kind person?!"

Sebastian sneered and shook his head. "Young Master Stephen, I have to say that you must have misunderstood the meaning of being 'kind'. The bar for kindness for you is too low!"

Stephen's face was ashen, and his mouth was agape. However, he could not even bring himself to say another word.

"That's enough, Stephen. Stop talking." George gave him a bitter smile, discouraging his second son. "I'll handle my affairs. Just don't say anything."
"Sebastian, you're slandering us!" Stephen yelled angrily, "My mother is a good person. Why would she kill someone? Leigh's grandfather's death must have been an accident. He could not have been killed by my mother and uncle!"

The more he said, the more mistakes he would make.

Anyhow, the incident was Holly's mistake to begin with. No, it was not just a simple mistake, but a crime and a loss of conscience.

No matter what his son said, it would be wrong and self-inflicted.

"Dad..." Stephen looked at George in panic and asked with a trembling voice, "A-Are you really going to divorce Mom?"

George shook his head and replied, "Let's not talk about this now. Dig in. The food is gonna get cold."

He was extremely confused right now, so he had not figured out his next plans.

Though he urged everyone to dig in, no one had the appetite to eat anymore.

Oh.

Well, maybe not everyone. Sebastian looked like he could still enjoy his food.

Sebastian ate elegantly and gracefully, and his dining posture could even be documented in etiquette textbooks as a model. Unfortunately, no one at the dining table could admire his elegance.

George lost his soul.

Ethan lost his taste for food.

Stephen was as restless as an explosive barrel that could explode at any time.

Crystal simply dragged Madeline to the cubicle, locked the door, and insisted on seeing the scars on her daughter's back.

Madeline could not resist her, so she let her see the scars reluctantly. Crystal almost fainted from crying after seeing them with her own eyes.

Michael was worried about his wife, so he told her to open the door. Seeing that Crystal's eyes were swollen from crying, he felt distressed and put his arms around her to comfort her tenderly.

Crystal snuggled into his arms and bawled, "It's true! It's all true! Our daughter is so beautiful and has such good skin, but scars are imprinted all over her body! How can this be? Michael, why did this happen? What did I do so wrong to be punished? I've never done anything wrong in my life. Why do the heavens have to punish me? Why…"

It was true that mothers felt pain whenever they saw their children getting hurt.

Upon seeing the scars on Madeline's body, she felt as if a knife had pierced into her heart.

Although she did not raise her from childhood, Madeline was her daughter, whom she carried in her womb for ten months! Madeline looked so identical to her, and Crystal adored her as soon as she saw her. She desperately wished to turn back time so that she could raise her child from the day she was born.

She had always felt bad for the pain Madeline had had to endure since she was a child, and now that she saw the scars on Madeline's body, she was even more heartbroken.

Michael comforted her, but he was also pained and remorseful.

His wife battled with her life to give birth to their daughter, yet he failed to protect their child, which was a shame in his life.

Madeline comforted Crystal, "Mom, don't cry. It's all over, and I'm fine now. Let's not think about the past, okay?"

She did not know that Sebastian would show those photos to her parents.

To her, those things seemed so distant that they belonged to someone else instead of her.

It was true that she had suffered a hard time before, but her two angels, Aldo and Joel, healed her. She did not have any resentment toward her past at all.

She even considered herself lucky.
