Elaine was completely frantic now. Richard said furiously, "She's clearly not our daughter, but the first test said she was. That proves she tampered with it. She's known all this time, and she's been deliberately deceiving us. Maybe... maybe Marcus's accident was her doing!"
Elaine's composure completely shattered. So Marie really wasn't their daughter.
And she had known, deliberately hiding it from them.
Hiding it from them was one thing.
But Marcus... their son... could he have found out? Was that why Marie had hurt him?
Elaine was trembling with rage. She pointed a shaking finger at Marie. "Marie, you knew you weren't our daughter all along! That's why you had someone falsify the first test results!"
Marie scrambled forward. "Mom, no, that's not it! It's Natalie! She's framing me! I am your daughter!"
"After all this, you're still lying to me!" Overcome with fury, Elaine slapped Marie across the face.
The force of the blow sent Marie stumbling to the floor. Elaine stood over her, pointing. "Marie, how could you deceive us like this? Who are you? Where is our real daughter? And my son... did you hurt him because he found out your secret? How could you be so monstrous!"
Faced with the truth, Marie felt her world collapsing.
But she still refused to give up the life of luxury she had.
