"What did you tell Daniel, you wretched girl?"

Chace struggled to break free from the police and almost lunged toward Camila, his anger echoing like thunder.

"You orchestrated everything! It has nothing to do with me or your mother! Admit it, or face dire consequences!"

Camila met his gaze, observing the fury in his eyes as he portrayed himself like a clown before everyone. He accused her of the crimes, denouncing her as unworthy due to her status as an adopted child and contending that she lacked the Quimbys' supposed good genes.

Finally, he exclaimed, "It was all arranged by her! Daniel, believe me! Camila is just an outsider! She incited us to evade taxes, create fake accounts, embezzle public funds... It was all her doing!"

Despite her mental preparedness, Camila felt a chill in her heart as her adoptive parents threw her out like a shield before the onlookers.

Unable to contain herself, she rushed to grab a document from the table and aimed it at Chace, plunging the meeting room into more chaos.

Security guards attempted to intervene, but Daniel signaled them to halt with a cough.

It wasn't until Camila and Chace were injured from the confrontation that Daniel slowly approached.

In a sorry state, both of them prostrated before him like defeated prisoners, devoid of any dignity.

Yet, Chace remained defiant. "This wretched girl... This treacherous wench!"

Camila spat at him.

Chace attempted to slap her, but before his hand could reach her, Daniel stepped on it.

"Ah!"

Daniel sneered. "Uncle Chace, your dog-eat-dog show is over. Now, you and Aunt Nadine should go where you belong!"

The police pulled them up from the floor, dragging them out.

Nadine had already turned pale while Chace continued his desperate struggle.

As he was being taken away, he shouted back, "Daniel, there's something you don't know, right? Heh! That woman you once took care of, this wretched girl is the one who caused her suffering! She killed your child too..."

Daniel's gaze darkened, a hint of killing intent surfacing on his face.

It turned out the whole world knew, except him.

Chace's cries grew fainter, gradually disappearing at the end of the corridor. Camila looked coldly in the direction they were taken with a faint, eerie smirk.

Daniel was resolute in his actions. After dealing with the two elders, she was next.

At that moment, Camila seemed somewhat resigned to her fate. She glanced at Daniel and smiled. "Daniel, could we find a place to talk privately?"

Daniel took Camila to a small meeting room. Instead of calling it a meeting room, it felt more like an interrogation room, even colder than one.

Daniel sat on the couch while Camila didn't even have a chair, kneeling on the floor. His gaze was icy, scrutinizing her. He could not fathom the deep-seated grudge between them that warranted her lifetime of revenge.
