Chapter 691

Chapter 691:
Locking eyes with Kylee, Baker continued, “It was all for you! When Belinda tormented you, your mother intervened, secretly exposing her to artichokes. Her hope? That Belinda would suffer a critical reaction during her operation, potentially sabotaging it and causing the patient to die. But things didn’t unfold as expected. We never anticipated that Belinda could still successfully perform the surgery.”
Kylee’s face showed a flicker of surprise. It was the allergy incident that had sparked doubts about her identity.
She hadn’t realized that Holley had orchestrated it all to get back at Belinda for her. Baker continued, “And remember the incident when Belinda was confronted by an assailant? Your mother revealed it openly amidst the medical staff. She did that for you! Even the car accident was no accident; it was carefully planned. With Belinda growing wary of us, we orchestrated that car crash to quell her suspicions. Kylee, think about all your mother has done for you. Doesn’t that mean anything to you?”
Kylee remained silent, but she couldn’t deny that her heart was stirred. She couldn’t help but compare Carola to Holley. Setting aside their identities, Holley shone as a genuinely devoted mother. In many respects, she treated her better than Carola.
Whenever Carola learned she had done something wrong, her response was to scold or criticize her.
Just then, Holley spoke up. “Kylee, there’s no pressure on you. If you aren’t ready to see me as your mother, that’s okay. Just you knowing in your heart that I am your biological mother is enough for me. You can do whatever you want.”

Kylee was moved again.
After a pause, Holley added with a hint of curiosity, “Kylee, do you… Do you have feelings for Mr. Clark?”
Holley had intuited something of the sort before. At her words, Kylee’s first impulse was to refute, but a thought seemed to strike her, and her eyes darted momentarily before she nodded, confessing, “Yes.”
Holley immediately said, “Don’t worry; I’ll handle everything! Belinda and Mr. Clark won’t have a chance to patch things up.”
Kylee gazed at her, and after a thoughtful pause, murmured, “Thank you.” Holley’s heart swelled with happiness at her words. Her eyes sparkling with excitement, she exclaimed, “Oh, there’s no need for formalities! There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you.”
Kylee remained silent, her discomfort under Holley’s earnest stare leading her to avert her gaze.
Baker was pleased by the scene. “With more than two decades gone by, our family of three finally has the chance for an honest conversation and to come together,” he said.
“Dad, there’s something that has been bothering me.” Kylee abruptly turned to Baker.
“What is it?” Baker inquired.
Kylee said, “Even though Belinda and I were swapped at birth, and she’s technically Carola’s biological child, she’s still your daughter. So why have you always been so harsh toward her?”
