Chapter 694

Nicoletta just kept crying, unable to speak another word. Then her son, Israel, suddenly stepped forward. “Even if my sister died and someone impersonated her, I’m still a Jonathan! I’m my father’s son, that’s for
sure!”
Caitlin’s voice was calm but cold. “You might be a member of the Jonathan Family, but whether you’re Hector’s son… that’s another matter entirely.”
Hector’s face hardened, his expression dark and thunderous. The wrinkles on his aged face seemed to deepen with every passing second. “Go on,” he said grimly. “I want to know the truth. Whose children are they?”
He had never once doubted Liliana and Israel. Twenty years ago, he had been in his early fifties, still strong and healthy. Both children even bore some resemblance to him–or so he had believed.
Caitlin turned to Nicoletta. “Before you became Hector’s secretary, you were involved with Fletcher. Fletcher was already married with children, so he couldn’t marry you. Instead, he arranged for you to work by Hector’s side. You used your charm to seduce Hector and gained his trust.
“When you told him you were pregnant, he thought the child was his and was overjoyed. He defied the family’s opposition and brought you into the Jonathan household. But what he didn’t know was that the two children you bore were actually Fletcher’s.”
As Caitlin’s words landed, the color drained from Hector’s face until he looked almost sickly green.
Israel was the first to shout, “No! That’s impossible! I’m my father’s son!”
But the most horrified faces belonged to Fletcher’s wife and children.
Blythe’s voice shook with outrage. “Lies! All lies! My husband would never do such a thing! Stop trying to stir up trouble!”
Carson’s expression was just as stricken. “Caitlin, you must be mistaken. My father is an honorable man–he’d never do something like that!”
Even Matthew and Fallon were speechless. Fallon stared, stunned. “Fletcher… it can’t be true.”
“I know it’s hard to believe,” Caitlin said evenly. “They hid it well. But no secret lasts forever. They were having an affair right here in the mansion. Uzma happened to catch them together. To cover his shame, Fletcher silenced her–permanently.”
A wave of gasps rippled through the hall.
“So Uzma died because of this? ”
“It really was Fletcher who killed her?”
“My God… how could this happen?”
The family’s world collapsed. The puzzle pieces–the murder, the affair, the fake daughter–all snapped together into a horrifying picture.

Caitlin continued, her tone sharp as a knife. “Hector, you trusted her blindly, but you never knew what she was really planning. Every bit of effort she made for this family was for herself. Every favor she did for Fletcher was for her lover.
“When you were asleep, when you were unaware, she and Fletcher were plotting your downfall. They planned to take control of the Jonathan estate once you were gone. And there’s more–you have no idea how many of your assets Nicoletta has secretly transferred out of your name.”
“You… you…” Hector’s chest heaved. He pointed at Nicoletta, trembling so violently he could hardly speak. He looked moments away from collapsing.
He had built his life’s legacy only to see it turn into filth before his eyes.
“No, Hector, no! Don’t believe her! None of this is true!” Nicoletta sobbed, desperate, her voice cracking.
But Caitlin didn’t even look at her. She reached into her bag and pulled out a small envelope. “Still want to deny it? These are photographs–proof of their affair outside the Jonathan estate. Try explaining this.”
The pictures circulated through the crowd, one by one.
When Blythe saw them, her world shattered. The husband she had defended, the life she had believed in—it was all a lie.
Her eyes blazed with fury. “You disgusting, shameless witch!”
She lunged at Nicoletta, grabbing a fistful of her hair and striking her across the face.
Blythe’s daughter joined in, clawing and hitting.
Zinnia, who had been restraining Nicoletta, stepped back, letting the chaos unfold. No one moved to stop it.
Because this–this was the Jonathan Family’s ultimate disgrace.
Nicoletta screamed as her hair was torn from her scalp, blood streaking her face. “Ah–stop–please stop-!”
“Liliana! Liliana, help me!” she cried to her fake daughter.
But Jasmine, no longer protected by her stolen name, only stared in horror. She backed away, step by step, until she reached the doorway, intent on fleeing.
“Don’t let the imposter run!” Fallon shouted.
Matthew and Carson darted forward, seizing Jasmine by the arms before she could escape.
“Why?” Jasmine cried, sobbing hysterically as she struggled. “Why are you doing this to me, Caitlin? You’re
cruel! You’re evil! ”
Caitlin’s eyes were cold. “I warned you before–don’t covet what isn’t yours. Without that mask, you’re nothing.”
Matthew signaled the servants. “Take her away.”

They dragged the imposter out as Blythe and her daughter finally stepped back, exhausted. Nicoletta was a wreck–her face swollen, her nose and mouth bleeding, her clothes torn.
At that moment, the doors opened again.
Someone was being wheeled inside.
Fallon turned, her voice softening. “Mom’s here.”
“Delilah’s here!” Fresh chapters posted on.net
“Mother!”
“Grandmother!”
The family rushed to greet her. Hector, hearing her name, lifted his head weakly.
Fallon pushed Delilah into the hall, stopping right in front of Nicoletta.
Delilah stared down at the beaten woman, her eyes sharp with decades of pent–up fury. She spat at her. “You deserve every bit of this, you venomous snake! If not for you, I wouldn’t have spent half my life in a wheelchair!”
“Delilah–please–I know I was wrong!” Nicoletta whimpered, clutching at her hand. “Please forgive me! Save
me!”
Delilah jerked her hand away with disgust. “Save you? I’d rather live long enough to watch you rot in prison.”
Fallon wheeled her mother to Hector’s side. The old man looked up, his expression softening with guilt and
sorrow.
“Delilah…” he said hoarsely.
Tears welled in her eyes. “Hector…”
“I’m sorry,” he whispered, gripping her trembling hand. “I’m so sorry for everything I put you through.”
She shook her head, her own tears falling. After all these years, it was clear–only Delilah had ever truly loved
him.
With her return, the balance of the Jonathan Family shifted. Nicoletta’s reign was over. Delilah, the rightful wife, was once again the true mistress of the house.
“Take that vile woman away!” Delilah ordered, her voice steady. “Let her face the punishment she deserves. Turn her over to the police. Let her spend the rest of her life behind bars.”
Hector said nothing, but his silence was permission enough.
The servants came forward, bound Nicoletta’s wrists, and dragged her away.
When order finally returned to the hall, Delilah turned to Caitlin. “Caitlin, thank you. If you hadn’t come, I
