Chapter 500 Get Out
But Emery caught the flash of guilt and hesitation in her husband’s eyes.
Finished
After sharing a bed for decades, she knew him too well. By one expression or gesture, she could read his thoughts.
So when Emery caught that look, the last bit of hope she had was shattered.
There was no turning back anymore.
“A misunderstanding? Is someone trying to tear us apart? These photos say everything! And how could a DNA test possibly be fake?
“Do you want to do another test before you finally stop lying and admit it?!”
For the first time, Emery completely lost control. She screamed wildly, like she was about to fall apart.
“Fine! Then do the test!” Raymond snapped back right away.
But by then, nothing he said mattered to her.
All she heard were excuse’s. He would rather die than tell the truth.
“Dad, Mom, Marcelo, Miguel, what’s going on?”
Right in the middle of the chaos, someone else walked in.
That overly soft, sugary voice could only belong to Gianna.
They used to think her voice was gentle and pleasant, that she was well-behaved and sensible.
But the moment Emery saw Gianna, all she could picture was her husband with his mistress.
The more she had once liked Gianna, the more hatred burned now.
The sight of Gianna pushed Emery over the edge. She screamed again, completely out of control, “Get out! Who told you to come in here?!”
She yelled like a lunatic, scaring Gianna badly.
It wasn’t acting this time. Gianna was genuinely startled.
What’s wrong with this crazy woman? Why is she yelling like this?
Gianna had never seen her adoptive mother so wild and vicious. Naturally, she was shaken.
Still, before coming upstairs, Gianna had overheard the commotion upstairs.
She hadn’t caught all the details, but she heard enough words about herself and Regina.
Gianna thought Emery must’ve found out something to yell at her like that.

So, she had a rough idea of what had happened.
Finished
“Gianna, go back to your room first. We’ll talk later,” Miguel said quickly, trying to send her away.
Otherwise, he was sure their mother would explode again.
Nobody could blame Emery for losing it. Anyone who had been betrayed and had a secret child revealed would be on the verge of collapse.
“Okay.” Gianna bit her lip, looking hurt and wronged as she hurried out.
Under normal circumstances, the family would have rushed to comfort her.
But right now, everything was pure chaos. No one had the energy to care if she felt wronged or heartbroken.
Soon after Gianna left, Marcelo and Miguel also walked out.
At moments like that, they had no idea how to comfort their mother. Anything they said would feel wrong.
Since everything started with their father, they left him to face it alone.
Now, only Emery and Raymond remained in the room.
“Raymond! You damn bastard! Your affair is exposed, and even the kids know now! Do you seriously feel no
shame?
“You’ve played the perfect gentleman in public for years, and now that mask is about to fall. Doesn’t that bother you at all?”
With no one else around, Emery finally let all her anger loose.
“I already told you it’s a misunderstanding. You just won’t listen,” Raymond said helplessly.
But Emery, exhausted and repeatedly breaking down, saw his expression and felt her anger flare even higher.
She didn’t trust him anymore.
The more she saw him act indifferent, the more she believed he truly didn’t care.
“These photos and documents are proof enough!
“And don’t think I didn’t notice! You gave that mistress an exclusive jewelry set! One piece even fell into your coat pocket!
“What’s there to deny now? You secretly bought her a full set of one-of-a-kind jewelry. How do you explain
that?”
Just thinking about it made her anger surge even higher.
She had asked him to buy that set for her birthday back then, but he kept dragging it out. In the end, someone else bought it first.

Back then, Emery only thought it was a pity.

Now, she finally realized the jewelry set had been secretly bought by her husband and given to his mistress.
That contrast made her want to rip him apart right there.
The moment she said it, Raymond understood everything.
No wonder Regina had insisted on asking him to see her that day.
After that, he had clearly sensed that his wife was acting differently.
