The IVF Secret That Shook a Dynasty novel Chapter 147

Vivica took the new phone, turning it over in her hands. It was a beautiful color.

As she logged into the security app, Joseph asked from beside her, “What should I do with this old phone?”

Without looking up, she said, “Wipe everything from it and throw it away.”

Fletcher had given her that phone when they got married. It had been the latest model at the time, costing a small fortune. She had taken good care of it, and even after four years, it was in excellent condition. Now, its shattered screen was a perfect reflection of her shattered marriage. It might as well be buried with it.

Watching the security footage was like reliving a nightmare. She saw the attack from a bird’s-eye view and couldn't stop a shiver from running down her spine. When Zebulon attacked her, he hadn't held back at all. Zahar had just stood by, helping his father restrain her. When Quintina tried to intervene, he had shoved her violently away.

Joseph noticed her sudden stillness and glanced at her screen, instantly understanding. Without a word, he took the phone from her hands.

As a seasoned lawyer, Joseph had seen his fair share of scumbags over the years. But this was the first time he had witnessed such clear footage of a father attacking his own daughter with such brutality. And that pathetic excuse for a brother—he had just extorted a huge sum of money from his sister to get him out of trouble, only to turn on her moments later as if she were his mortal enemy.

Joseph finally voiced a question that had been lingering in his mind. “Are you sure you’re their biological daughter?”

Vivica flinched and looked at him, remembering that Quintina had asked the same thing earlier today.

“I’m not joking,” he continued, studying her face intently. “You don’t look anything like your parents. Even with some genetic anomaly, it’s unlikely they could have produced a face like yours. And look at your brother—he’s short, unattractive, and bears no resemblance to you whatsoever.”
