Scott was taken aback by Elysia’s words. The implication was clear-she knew she wasn’t the Rosewood family’s

biological daughter.

His brow furrowed deeply. If that person found out, the Rosewood family would be in deep trouble. “Elysia, stop

this

nonsense.”

“Nonsense?” Elysia’s lips curled into a playful smile. “I'm not being nonsensical.”

As she spoke, she raised her hand, and Yuna immediately pulled two paternity test reports from her bag and

placed them in Elysia’s hand.

Elysia’s smile didn’t waver as she laid the reports on the table and pushed them toward Scott. “This is black and

white. Are you still going to deny it, Mr. Rosewood?”

Scott stared at the paternity test reports on the table, his frown deepening by the second.

Bella, however, couldn't stay calm. Her pupils dilated as she quickly grabbed the reports. Flipping through them,

she was utterly stunned.

Elysia wasn’t their daughter. A wave of smugness surged in Bella's heart, and she couldn't help but show her

delight.

She thought, ‘I knew my real daughter died long ago. There's no way Elysia could be my daughter. Just look at

her-she doesn’t resembleat all.

Elysia asked, “Mrs. Rosewood, why are you so happy?”

Scott shot Bella a side-eye glance, and only then did she suppress her smile.

Bella quickly realized something wasn’t right. She wondered, ‘If Elysia isn’t our daughter, why would Scott bring

her into our home? And why create such an elaborate lie? There's no way Scott was unaware of this!

When Scott brought Elysia home, he had briefly explained the circumstances of their child's death and even

showed her a paternity test report, which barely convinced her at the time.

She thought, ‘So it turns out that Elysia isn’t our biological daughter, and Scott knew all along. But why did he do

this?”

Elysia observed Bella's reaction, her brow furrowing slightly. It seemed Bella truly didn’t know Elysia wasn't her

biological daughter, which meant she had been deceived by Scott.

If all of this was orchestrated by Scott without Bella's knowledge, then Bella was even more detestable.

In Bella's perception, Elysia was her biological daughter, the person with a kinship confirmed by the paternity

test.

Yet, knowing this, Bella still treated her so poorly. If the person sitting here today were truly her biological

daughter, then everything Elysia had gone through would have been experienced by her real daughter.

Elysia thought, ‘Bella is unworthy to be a mother. What kind of mother treats her child like this? Today, I've seen

it firsthand.”

Crossing her legs, Elysia’s eyes sparkled with amusement. “I didn’t originally plan on showing you this report

since it’s obvious. But Mr. Rosewood is so stubborn. If | didn’t bring out this report, you'd probably deny it till the

end, wouldn't you? “So | had no choice but to show it. But in doing so, | discovered something interesting.”

Elysia’s gaze landed on Bella. “Mrs. Rosewood, tell me, if your biological daughter were still alive and saw how

you treated her, how do you think she'd feel?”

Hearing this, Bella's fury flared up. She lunged to tear at Elysia’s mouth, but before she could reach her, Yuna

had already pushed her back down onto the sofa. “Mrs. Rosewood, please control yourself.”

Yuna’s voice was cold, and the aura she radiated carried a palpable threat of violence. Frozen in fear, Bella didn’t

dare move an inch.

Elysia was quite satisfied with the outcome, a wicked smile playing on her lips. “Since we're being honest now,

Mr. Rosewood, why don’t you tellthe purpose behind all this? Or better yet, who's the mastermind?” Elysia

emphasized the last few words deliberately.

Knowing he couldn't keep the truth hidden any longer, Scott furrowed his brow and spoke in a deep voice, “What

do you plan to do?”

Elysia stood up and moved closer to Scott. “What do I plan to do? This place was never my home, so of course

I'm leaving.”

“Don’t even think about it. I'd rather lock you up and let you die at the Rosewood residence,” Scott threatened

viciously.

Hearing this, Yuna looked at Scott as if he were already a dead man. She thought, ‘He dares to speak to the Boss

like that? He's really asking for it.”

“You want to imprison me? Let's see if you have what it takes.” Elysia clapped her hands, and a group of black-

clad bodyguards stormed in, surrounding everyone in the living room. They looked fierce and capable.

Bella was utterly terrified by the sight and couldn't utter a word. Scott, however, tried to maintain his

composure-after all, he had experienced many battles in the business world.

“Elysia, what are you going to do?” Scott shouted angrily.

Elysia gestured to one of the bodyguards behind her and said coldly, “He’s being noisy.”

At her command, the bodyguard stepped forward, tore off a tablecloth, and stuffed it into Scott's mouth.

Scott had lived through many things, but he had never been humiliated like this. His anger burned even hotter,

but with his mouth stuffed and his hands restrained, he couldn't move or speak.

Bella grew increasingly panicked. Looking at Scott being restrained, she mustered the courage to speak, “Elysia,

no matter what, he was your father for a while. How can you treat him like this?”

Elysia nonchalantly picked at her ear, and a bodyguard immediately stepped forward to restrain Bella in the

smanner. Bella was terrified, tears streaming down her face, but she tried to appear strong, glaring fiercely

at Elysia to hide her fear. Elysia walked closer and placed a foot on the table, her eyes cold. “Mrs. Rosewood,

how does that tablecloth taste?” Bella's fierce glare instantly faded. It was the first tshe had seen Elysia like

this, her icy demeanor chilling to the bone. Elysia grabbed Bella’s chin, her voice frigid. “Mrs. Rosewood, it's

okay if you're old and confused. Letremind you, | never begged him to be my father.

“This whole charade was something he concocted on his own. Expectingto feel any sentiment towards this is

pure fantasy.”

Letting go of Bella’s chin, Elysia’s gaze shifted to Scott, observing his bitter expression. A slight smirk played on

her lips as

she thought, ‘No rush-I have a special gift for him.

Elysia headed upstairs and retrieved a black suitcase from under the bed. Inside was a customized computer she

had brought secretly when she moved into the Rosewood residence. Now that she was leaving, she wouldn't

leave it behind.

Remembering the draft papers she had written before, she opened a drawer and took them out, placing them in

the suitcase as well.

Even though most of the content had already been posted online, she didn’t want to leave anything behind in

the Rosewood residence.

As for the clothes and jewelry bought with the Rosewood family’s money, she didn’t want them at all.
