"Why the long face? Smile if you want money," Paul demanded as he scolded the


    woman, even going so far as to p her on the buttocks. Genevieve, tears in her eyes, managed a smile, but Aurora found it hard to sympathize with her considering her past actions.


    To avoid detection, she secretly took several photos and turned to leave, believing that with these photos, she could truly bring down Genevieve. She examined the pictures, but because the door was only slightly ajar, the quality was poor and the faces of the man and woman were unclear.


    Fearing that Genevieve might deny it, Aurora realized she needed to investigate their rtionship further. If she could uncover this shocking secret, dealing with Genevieve


    would be simple.


    Storing her phone away, Aurora''s mood greatly improved. Paul''s words were not mistaken; how Genevieve had dressed herself in the past, she would now undress her in the same way. She wanted everyone to see Genevieve''s true nature and let her enjoy herst moments as Mrs. Montgomery; what awaited her was endless ridicule and chastisement.


    Upon returning to the office, the atmosphere among the staff was much better than before; at least, there were no signs of gossip. She went straight to her own office and worked through the afternoon until everyone else had left, and she was still there, working overtime alone.


    The clock pointed to six when Julian''s call came as promised, "Little Bunny, did you forget the time again?"


    "Uh-huh."


    "I''m downstairs, hurry up," Julian reminded her.


    "Alright, wait for me," Aurora replied, packing her things to leave.


    When she exited the building, few people were around, only a few janitors mopping the floor. Julian, having spent the afternoon in meetings, hade straight to her, noticing Aurora''s energetic approach, "Aren''t you tired?"


    "Being busy, I''ve forgotten what tired feels like," she shook her head, her mind filled with nothing but work.


    "By the way, guess what I saw today?" Aurora recalled the shocking scene she had witnessed and couldn''t wait to share it with Julian.


    "What''s got you so excited?" Julian patted her head, whatever it was, it was clearly thrilling her.


    "On my way back to the office today, I saw Genevieve entering Paul''s office. To pay off Zachary''s gambling debts, she was actually taking money from Paul in exchange for her body."


    "Oh... that''s something new. They had that kind of rtionship before," Julian realized.


    Aurora continued, "And from their conversation, I discovered something else-they had a past rtionship. I heard Genevieve used to be a hostess, and it was Paul who took her from the nightlife scene. Later, she must have set her sights on my father, using her connection with Paul to get close to him and even managed to break my mom and dad up. She climbed her way up and now, for money, she''s gone back to Paul." "Before, I noticed Paul and her got along well, but I didn''t know they had such a history. If what you''re saying is true, there''s another problem. No man would tolerate a woman who betrayed him like that; Paul should actually hate Genevieve for what she''s done."


    "So why would he still want to help Genevieve? Is it really because of Genevieve''s beauty?" Julian immediately grasped the crux of the matter.


    "Could it be that he still has feelings for Genevieve?" Aurora countered.

    "No, if he truly loved her, he wouldn''t have let her be your dad''s mistress for so many years. With his current status, what young and beautiful woman couldn''t he have?


    Do you think he would hang himself on a tree for someone like Genevieve?" Julian, being a man, seemed to understand more.


    Aurora was somewhat confused, "So what are you saying..."


    "Paul has also helped fix leaks for Zachary and Ivy in the past. I used to think it was because he and Genevieve were close, but now, after hearing about their entanglements, I realize that''s not the case.


    Could it be possible that the person he''s helping isn''t Genevieve, but Zachary?" Julian''s guess was even more shocking than what Aurora had originally thought.


    "Are you saying Paul has some connection to Zachary?" Aurora began to think carefully. Ivy and Zachary were twins, only a few months younger than herself.


    "Yes, considering the timeline, Genevieve got together with your dad after your mom got pregnant. The infidelity rate among men is high during their partner''s pregnancy.


    It seems unproblematic, but when you mentioned Paul, what if Genevieve was still connected to Paul, and the child she was carrying was actually Paul''s?"


    "Mom got a hold on dad because she was pregnant. If she hadn''t been pregnant back then, perhaps the oue would have been different.

    Now that you mention it, I always felt that Zachary and Ivy didn''t look much like me. If they were really my dad''s children, they would at least bear some resemnce."


    In the past, Aurora had only found it strange without giving it much thought, until today when she saw a picture of Paul and Genevieve together. Many things seemed problematic.


    "Hold on." Julian seemed to think of something, took out his phone, and actually found a photo of Paul from twenty years ago.


    The two erged the image andpared it carefully, "Mostly, Ivy and Zachary look like Genevieve, but their noses and eyes do bear some resemnce to what Paul looked like when he was young."


    Paul was quite handsome in his youth, not the paunchy figure he was now. Such aparison was indeed explosive news.


    "So it turns out Ivy and Zachary are actually Paul''s children!" Aurora felt even more indignant, "She''s been deceiving us for so long, ying us for fools. If not for her, my mother might not have left!"


    "You''ve always been looking for a chance topletely bring down Genevieve. Heaven''s is vast and lets nothing slip through, yet she has revealed her own slip."


    "Exactly, now all we need is to collect hair samples from Paul and Ivy and Zachary for DNA testing, and Genevieve won''t be able to exin it away even with a hundred mouths."


    "You can rest easy now, Genevieve poses no threat to you anymore." Julian embraced


    her.


    "Whether mom is still in this world or not, I want to take back everything that belongs


    to us." Aurora felt truly fortunate, having uncovered such a major secret.


    Once they had the DNA results, Genevieve and Ivy and Zachary would be ousted from the Montgomery family. Thinking of that scene, she was a little excited indeed.
