Chapter 320

Mr. Ordelia's brows furrowed, his expression dark. "You're-"

"The 'dead' child is still alive, being raised by Winnie?"

"I never expected this, but I discovered it in Perugia City, the two little bastards have been secretly communicating and playing tricks on me for some time now!

After returning to Lymington, in the middle of the night, I secretly had someone dig up the tomb where Mr. Rodriguez buried the infant, took the bones for a DNA test, and indeed, that dead baby was not...

Luckily, Mr. Rodriguez hasn't found out yet.

Those two bastards, they look exactly the same!" Darcy gritted her teeth.

"You were overly confident when you caused Winnie to jump into the sea. Even if the two bodies had decomposed, we would still need to conduct a DNA test, but now we have so many hidden risks!" Mr. Ordelia couldn't help but frown.

"Enough, all you know is blaming Darcy. Isn't she anxious as well?

Lawrence hasn't noticed the other illegitimate child yet. We need to get rid of them!" Mrs. Ordelia said viciously.

Mr. Ordelia pursed his lips and looked at Darcy. "This matter must be dealt with immediately while he is unprepared, but it cannot be done by the Ordelia family. Elliott is an example, and it is a sensitive time."

Darcy's heart sank as she sensed her father's coldness, but she also knew that this matter was a serious one. She couldn't involve the Ordelia family or herself.

Who would do this?

As she pondered with a chaotic mind, her phone vibrated.

Looking at the caller ID, Darcy suddenly had a thought...

Mrs. Ordelia continued to instigate and instruct her daughter, "Why don't you just get rid of the two children together this time!

Sidney has lived for three years, initially we thought Winnie was completely dead, so he was insignificant. But now all three of them are alive, it will eventually become a great threat.

If Lawrence finds out the twins are healthy, will he forgive Winnie? Will he still marry you then? Think it through!"

Darcy clenched her fist fiercely. Her mother's words were already anticipated by her. She must not let this deep hatred of the 'dead son' be resolved between Mr. Rodriguez and the harlot.

Moreover, it seemed like Mr. Rodriguez was no longer willing to have a child with her, and this was not a good sign!

Feeling threatened, a gloomy frost settled on her face. "I will take care of this matter, you and father keep an eye on Elliott's case."

At three o'clock in the morning, Rock secretly transported Jeffery's 'corpse' to a cottage in the outskirts.

Winnie waited in the apartment for his call, listening to him describe the process of the switch and feeling a deep breath of relief.

She didn't rest, she brought medication and overnight, she arranged for two private doctors to come to the cottage.

After Jeffery took the 'death pill', he needed to be detoxified.

But before that, Winnie had to leave behind evidence of his 'death injected by the Ordelia family'.

In a few days, during her uncle's trial, she needed a reasonable explanation and evidence to prove Jeffery's miraculous recovery, and to accuse the Ordelia family.

The Ordelia family made sure to cover their tracks secretly. The doctor kept the evidence and proceeded to treat Jeffrey, enduring through the night. Jeffrey gradually regained consciousness, drenched in cold sweat, as if in a dream.

"Daughter...!" Jeffrey shouted, waking up abruptly.

Daughter?

Winnie stared at his youthful appearance and had investigated enough to know he wasn't married.

"You're awake?" Winnie walked up to his bedside.

Jeffrey weakly opened his eyes.

Without wasting any words, Winnie extended her hand and said, "You called out to me for help, and I saved you. At the brink of death, you finally saw the true colors of the Ordelia family. Now, you can only rely on me to tell the court everything you were ordered to do by the Ordelia family, to clear my uncle's name. It's your only path, for both you and your family."

Jeffrey smiled bitterly, keeping his gaze low. "First, help me recover. I can't speak clearly right now."

"Of course," Winnie replied.

The pseudo-death drug had affected his lungs, and it would take a day or two to fully recover and be able to stand. But the trial to overturn her uncle's case would take place within five days. Urgency pervaded the situation, so Winnie had the doctor administer an injection.

Before leaving, she instructed Rock, "Rock, send a few bodyguards to watch over him. Once he can stand, I need to immediately accompany him to find the evidence."

"No problem. Your uncle is poised to win on the day of the trial," Rock breathed a sigh of relief.

With a light chuckle, he took out his phone and handed it to Jeffrey. "And the Ordelia family is currently under a false impression."

The phone displayed the morning news.

"Last night, there was an incident of a suspect committing suicide in Lymington Prison. Jeffrey, the fugitive who had escaped, couldn't bear the burden on his conscience and took his own life at the police station. His employer, Mr. Ordelia, expressed condolences and cooperated with the police investigation, claiming Jeffrey's ashes..."

The photo showed a rare appearance of Mr. Ordelia, looking calm and relaxed.

Winnie glanced at Jeffrey in the room, a hint of cold mockery crossing her mind.

However, her furrowed brow couldn't truly ease. After getting into the car, she contacted Olivia. "Olivia, how's the investigation of the Ordelia Group's pharmaceutical factory in Lymington going?"

"Not good. We found other banned drugs from the Ordelia family on the black market. But as for the hallucinogenic drug your uncle ingested, the Ordelia family left no trace from production to sale. And Winnie, I had my old friend in the police diligently investigate. The source of the bribes given to the corrupted prison guards and inmates only traces back to Jeffrey, and there's no connection to the Ordelia family."

Winnie furrowed her brow tightly. So, in this case...

In this place, she almost only had Jeffrey as her lifeline. And his confession and testimony would also become the strongest evidence pointing to the Ordelia family!

"I'll handle Jeffrey, Olivia. Don't bother checking with your side, in case the Ordelia family becomes suspicious of you...

By the way, you haven't made any noise or encountered any trouble since you returned from Perugia City, have you?"

Olivia paused, not wanting to trouble her friend with her own affairs.

But these past two days, she had been completely distracted. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Winnie, I want to move houses. How expensive is the rent for apartments in your area?"

"Why do you want to move?" Winnie became sensitive.

Olivia felt anxious. Mia was seen by Jeremy that day, although she managed to forcefully take back the child and run away. But Jeremy had still seen her! This meant that Sam might find out soon. She hoped Jeremy wouldn't cause trouble for her.

And there's still Lynn, stirring up trouble!

She instinctively wanted to hide from Jeremy...

In a deluxe hotel suite late at night.

Darcy moaned incessantly under Mars, and even after the man stopped, she still pursued him.

"It's already the third time, do you think I'm invincible?" Mars patted her buttocks, pushed the woman away, and breathed heavily as he lit a cigarette.

Darcy was sweaty, with a seductive glance in her eyes, but her mouth revealed a strong unwillingness. "Lawrence can last five times in one night, why can't you?"

Mars's face turned pale. Men are most sensitive about being compared to this. Especially when it's him, Lawrence!

He flicked the ash from his cigarette angrily, and Darcy also realized her slip of the tongue, complaining about him while using him as a substitute.

She immediately threw herself over him, rubbing against him in a flustered manner. "I didn't mean it that way, Mars..."

"Don't pretend in front of me. I like your true self." Mars sneered, raised her chin, and teasingly said, "What's this? Lawrence had sex with his ex-wife five times? That got you so worked up. No wonder you came running after just one phone call from me."

The more he mentioned it, the more difficult it became for Darcy to breathe.

"Don't mention them, I'm annoyed." She deliberately reddened her eyes.

"Oh, what's bothering you?" Mars smirked, squeezing her body with his hand.

Seeing that he took the bait, Darcy, with irregular breaths, told him what was going on.

Mars listened and wasn't foolish either. He turned his head, squinted at her, and said, "It's not a big deal, two little brats. I'll take care of them for you, isn't that enough?"

"Are you really willing to help?"
