Chapter 705

    Here is your revised and polished English trantion, faithful to the original meaning and tone, and adapted for American readers:


    "How about this-let me look through the family picture we took on Dad''s birthdayst year. That way, we can see if Elowen really was wearing that dress."


    As she spoke, she picked up her phone and started scrolling through the gallery.


    "...Enough!"


    Atst, Fiona couldn''t bear it any longer and snapped in anger.


    At this point, there was no way to deny what had happened—and, truthfully, it never should have been denied in the first ce.


    Maybe an outsider could have hesitated when looking at those photos, but as Elowen''s parents, she and Larry knew instantly—that was Elowen in the picture.


    They lived with their daughter every single day. How could any parent not recognize their own child?


    But Elowen hadn''t taken the chance to admit her mistake when she still could. Instead, she kept on arguing, digging herself deeper-like aplete fool.


    When Amara noticed Fiona shooting her a vicious re, she wasn''t upset at all. She simply continued, "What''s this, Mrs. Sullivan? Are you confessing on Elowen''s behalf now?"


    A slight, knowing smile yed at her lips. "So, the person in the pictures isn''t me at all. It''s Elowen."


    “But Mrs. Emma Everly was dead set on using me-insisting that I was the one in the pictures, iming I''d gotten involved with some man, and even saying the baby I''m carrying isn''t legitimate. That''s what this whole thing yesterday was about."


    Amara intentionally left out anything about Tina, glossing over that part.


    If Larry hadn''t uncovered the truth about Tina himself, there was no reason to bring


    it up to them. Amara herself still hadn''t sorted out those details; just thinking about it made her head throb.


    Larry shut his eyes for a moment, working to rein in his anger. “You''ve been treated unfairly,” he said quietly. “You shouldn''t have had to bear all of this.”


    What he really meant was clear: this had all been Elowen''s mistake, yet Amara was the one who had paid the price. It was more than unfair.


    Amara lowered her head. "It''s alright. Honestly, I recognized that it was Elowen in the photos right away, but I never thought she''d get mixed up in something like this. I was shocked."


    Larry replied, "You don''t need to worry about this anymore. You can head home now I have some things to deal with."


    Amara knew full well that "things to deal with" meant he was going to handle Elowen''s situation.


    She could easily picture how strict, old-fashioned Larry would respond once he learned the extent of what Elowen had done.


    A faint, knowing curve touched her lips. "Okay, Dad. I''ll go now."


    Just before she left, she caught Elowen ring at her a look full of intense, toxic hatred. Amara simply smiled back at her, then turned and walked out.


    After leaving the Sullivan household, Amara wandered around outside for a while. That''s when Elysia


    messaged her: Finnian Everly''s small wedding reception had been


    postponed, pushed


    Pushed from noon to the


    evening.  s?novels


    Elysia went on to say that it actually made more sense this way, since Finnian''s getting married for the second time who holds a reception for a second wedding in the middle of the day, anyway?


    Elysia''s tone was teasing, but Amara couldn''t help but feel worried when she read the message.


    Why was Finnian''s reception dyed? Was it because of her? A wave of anxiety rose in Amara.


    She didn''t want any more trouble-she just hoped that Finnian and Liliana could get married, quietly and smoothly, without anything else going wrong.


    Right then, a message popped up from Mr. Kevin Everly: "Ama, what are you up to? If you don''t have anything else going on,e home. Grandpa''s waiting for you."


    Mr. Kevin Everly knew that Amara''s ce was still under renovation, and she didn''t have anywhere else to stay in Wye. At the moment, that left Amara with nowhere to go, and he was worried about her.
