Chapter 1660 Secret
Maddox's pupils contracted violently.
Oscar looked at him with a mocking glint in his eyes. "The two women recognized by the Central City
are not adoptive daughters, but biological ones."
"The Miss Selena who destroyed the Riddle Group was not related to you, so there is no need for
Maddox to curse her. She will face consequences for destroying the Riddle Group on her own."
"As for the true daughter of the Riddle family, can Maddox guess where she is right now?"
The Empress of the Riddle Group Empire became a daughter of the Turner family and came to the
capital.
Where could that real Selena be?!
Maddox's eyes turned crimson as he let out violent screams.
In front of the Empress in Central City... what was Riddle Group in the capital?!
Riddle Group could have reached new heights...
But because he gave up on Selena!
So he could only watch as this immense power and wealth slipped away from his fingertips.
Oscar looked at him with a sneer as he said, "Maddox, do you regret giving up Nevaeh and Selena for
Kiera and Penelope who sent Riddle Group to hell with their own hands?"
Maddox looked into Oscar's deep eyes but couldn't bring himself to say that he didn't regret it anymore!
He regretted it completely!
Why did he have to replace his wife?
Why throw away Nevaeh?
If he hadn't replaced his wife, hadn't abandoned Nevaeh, and hadn't given up on Selena, the Riddle
Group in the capital would have merged with the Riddle Group in Central City and become the
dominant force in the alliance!
At that time, what would the Turner family be?!
And what about those aristocratic families in the capital?!
Maddox regretted so much that his eyes turned red. "No no no, I haven't lost yet. The Cummings family
will not let Linette die. They will come to save her..."
Oscar's eyes were calm.
Linette.
Obviously, this was Daphne's fake name.
Irene Samantha thought of Linette... it sounded related and made her think of all these years when
nobody suspected Daphne's identity within Riddle Group. Oscar instantly saw through all their
schemes.
"They are twins so you could switch them for so many years?"
Maddox's face twitched violently. "Oscar, do you know what kind of existence the Cummings family is?!
As long as they are there, Riddle Group won't lose..."
Oscar sneered. "The Cummings family? I've heard a little bit about them but Maddox... you might be
disappointed again."
"The Cummings family is indeed impressive but she may not necessarily stand up for Linette and..."
"I decided to send you on your way because someone from The Cummings Family will soon come to
take Linette away."
"You two who have done nothing but evil deeds can soon reunite on your journey to hell."
"Impossible!" Maddox trembled. "Linette is the daughter of the Cummings family. Even if she did
something wrong, the Cummings family wouldn't just let it go..."
Oscar looked at him calmly. "Is that so?"
Maddox glared at Oscar with resentment. "The Cummings family has a special status, don't think you
can do whatever you want just because of your position as the queen of central city..."
Oscar chuckled. "Maddox, you've lived for so many years, but why do you seem to be regressing?"
"When have I ever done anything without confidence?" Maddox retorted.
"For Nevaeh's sake, I'll tell you a secret," Oscar said with almost cruel eyes fixed on Maddox's face.
"Do you know where my younger brother got that red jade from when he gave it to Nevaeh?" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Maddox was shocked and frightened by what he heard from Oscar.
"You... what are you trying to say?" he asked hesitantly.
"Considering how highly you regard Linette and believe she will bring glory and wealth to Riddle
Group," Oscar spoke in an even tone, "have you ever thought about what kind of status a woman who
cannot even recognize her own bloodline would have in the Cummings family?"
Maddox's mind exploded like fireworks.
"That red jade was given to my younger brother by a noblewoman in central city," Oscar continued
coldly.
"That woman owes my younger brother a favor and promised him that if he were ever in danger, he
could use this red jade as proof when seeking her help."
"My younger brother gave this red jade to Nevaeh which means that promise now falls upon her."
"It's only people like Daphne and yourself who are foolish enough not see its value."
"You and Daphne caused the death of its rightful owner; do you really think that noblewoman will spare
either one of us?"
Maddox was left stunned by everything Oscar had revealed to him.
He never imagined that the glory and wealth of downtown was once so close to him, so close that he
could have reached out and grabbed it. But instead of seizing it, he had completely... ruined himself
and the entire Riddle Group!
Oscar looked at Maddox in shock as he dropped the final bombshell. "And that woman is none other
than the mother of the Empress of downtown."
"You not only destroyed what she sent you, but also insulted her beloved daughter multiple times...
Maddox, do you really think that woman will let you or Linette go?"
Maddox collapsed to the ground.
He had now offended both Riddle Group Empire and The Cummings Family...
Riddle Group was truly beyond redemption...
Oscar coldly watched Maddox's lifeless expression before turning around to leave. "Keep an eye on
him, make sure he doesn't die too easily. And... shut his mouth!"
After knowing all these secrets at once, Maddox no longer had any right to speak.
But Nevaeh's cause of death still remained unknown.
Maddox still had to stay alive until justice was served for Nevaeh and her mother...
Downtown.
Selena received a call from Hattie while on her way to a party.
The young girl admitted to Selena that Maddox had swapped his wife, and Selena told Madam
Samantha. Madam Samantha promised Selena that she would investigate Daphne's true identity.
"Thank you, Mom," Selena said before parting ways with Madam Samantha. She was led by a maid
through another door to the banquet hall.
After she left, Madam Samantha's eyes turned cold. "Get ready, I'm going on a trip tomorrow."
"Yes, ma'am."
...
As Selena was led to the banquet hall by her maid, she thought about her mother's strange behavior
earlier. Although it wasn't very obvious, Selena could tell that something was off when her mother
mentioned Callum and his wife.
Her mother's maiden name was Cummings and so was Daphne's surname. It seemed like there might
be some blood relation between herself and Creephia's Daphne after all...
