Chapter 460

Chapter 460:

While Brielle’s mind raced, Shepard’s gaze locked on her again. “You’ve known about your real parentage for quite some time. Isn’t that true, Brielle p>

Each word landed like a blade.

Brielle opened her mouth, desperate to deny it, but nothing came out. All she managed was a helpless glance in Weston’s direction.

“Tell me, Brielle. Is what Shepard said the truth?” Weston asked.

“Dad, I p>

“I warned you. Don’t call me that again. I am not your father p>

In the past, every time Brielle had called Weston Dad, his chest had swelled with pride. But tonight, the word sounded like cruel mockery, cutting deeper than any knife.

The revelation that Brielle was Elmore’s child dragged his thoughts back to the document Shepard had shown him about Amelia.

As he thought of everything Amelia had endured over the years, Weston felt as though his heart were being torn apart.

He realized with anguish that he had poured all his affection into Elmore’s daughter.

Meanwhile, his own child with Katrina had been left behind, mistreated and forced to endure pain.

The weight of Weston’s guilt became unbearable. His vision blurred. Then darkness closed in as his body gave out.

“Dad!” Shepard cried, rushing forward to catch Weston before he hit the floor.

When Weston collapsed, Brielle instinctively moved toward him, but Weldon blocked her path.

Amelia was completely unaware of what was happening in the Chadwick residence.

Her brows pulled together the moment Damon stepped in front of her, blocking her path.

“Mrs. Stewart, I came here today because I’d like to discuss a partnership with you,” Damon said.

When Amelia heard that, her lips curved with mockery. “There’s no world where I’d consider working with you p>

Damon acted as if her disdain didn’t touch him. Leaning in slightly, he spoke quietly. “Mrs. Stewart, you are the true daughter of Mr. Chadwick. Brielle, on the other hand, is my uncle’s child. Don’t you want to know the full truth behind all of this? It concerns your mother p>

Amelia almost turned away — but her steps halted the moment he mentioned her mother.

“This place isn’t suitable for such a discussion. Why don’t we find somewhere more private?” Damon continued.

A few minutes later, Amelia and Wyatt followed Damon into a private dining room at a restaurant.

Once they were seated, Amelia didn’t waste time. “Tell me. What did you mean by what you said earlier p>

“I’m willing to reveal the truth about the past, but only if you agree to one condition,” Damon said.

“And what condition is that?” Amelia asked.

For a moment, Damon didn’t reply. Instead, his gaze slid toward Wyatt, who was seated right beside Amelia.
