Chapter 1493
Rina took a deep breath and composed her emotions for the time being. "If it were before today, I would have been afraid. I would never have told you my secrets either. I would have brought my secrets to the grave and never revealed the truth to you. However, I want to save my father. That's why I have no choice but to tell you everything. Didn't you ask me why I'm so certain that your kidney can save my father? The answer is obvious by now, isn't it? Sonia, you are Rina Gray. You're the real daughter of my parents!"

There was a loud explosion in Sonia's head. Her sneer froze on her face, and she sat motionlessly on the hospital bed, feeling as though she had been struck by a bolt of lightning. There was a loud buzzing sound in her head. Her mind had also gone completely blank.
Rina was not finished and repeated her words emphatically. "Sonia, I'm a fake, but you're not. You're the biological daughter of Titus Gray and his wife! You are the real Rina Gray!"
"Impossible!" Sonia finally regained some of her senses. Clasping her hands together tightly, she shook her head vigorously, her complexion pale. "That's impossible! That can't be true! You're lying! That's not true!"
I'm Rina Gray? What a joke! How can I be Rina Gray? This woman must be trying to deceive me! I don't believe it! I won't believe it!
Sonia had obviously become emotional. In response, Rina's smile became vicious. "Miss Reed, I know you don't believe me, but it's the truth. I have evidence. Do you know why I gouged out the red mole on your wrist?"
As soon as the words came out, Sonia's expression changed drastically once more. She remembered the incident. She knew that there was a red mole on Rina Gray's wrist.
Watching Sonia's body tremble slightly in disbelief, Rina continued her explanation. "Looks like you've guessed the truth, Miss Reed. That's right. Rina Gray has a red mole on her right wrist. I accidentally found out that you had a red mole on your wrist and immediately wondered whether you were Rina Gray. That's why I schemed to obtain your hair when I met you the other day. Then, I brought your hair to a DNA test center and discovered that you were actually Rina Gray, the daughter whom the Gray Family have been desperately searching for so long."
"How…" Sonia clutched at her head tightly, sinking into a state of complete self-doubt. It was evident that she could not accept what Rina was telling her. She was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.
How can I be Rina Gray? How can Rina Gray be me? She simply could not accept the truth.
However, Rina was determined to force Sonia into accepting the truth. She forged onward with her explanation. "After learning that you were Rina Gray, I was very scared that my parents would realize your identity through that red mole on your wrist one day. After all, you lived so close to each other in Seafield. That's why I had no choice. I had to get rid of the red mole on your wrist. I thought that everything would be fine once I got rid of the red mole. Who could have imagined that President Fuller would trace the incident back to me so quickly? He arrested me and brought me to the police station, where he interrogated me about the reasons for my actions. He was so terrifying that I did not dare to hide the truth from him. Hence, I told him the truth about everything."
"What did you say?" Sonia abruptly raised her head and stared at Rina fixedly. "Did you just say that
Toby had always known about me…"
"That's right. From that day onward, President Fuller had always known that you were Rina Gray." Rina smiled even more viciously.
Sonia was even more confused than before. Toby has known the truth for such a long time. If so… Why didn't he tell me?
Rina pretended not to notice Sonia's mental breakdown and stubbornly carried on. "President Fuller told me that I will not be able to hide the truth from everybody just by removing the red mole on your wrist. In fact, he claimed that it was the stupidest move I could have made. The police would have a specific record of the injuries that I inflicted on you. The Gray Family would eventually learn about the red mole on your wrist by reading the police records and discovering that I was a fake. Can you guess why the Gray Family never saw the police records? Why they never learned about how I hurt you by gouging out the red mole on your wrist?"
Why? Despite Sonia's confusion, the image of Toby immediately came to mind. Was it him?
She shook her head violently, feeling even more emotionally broken than ever. Unfortunately, the words that Rina spoke next immediately drove her to the bottom of the valley.
"That's right. It's exactly as you're thinking, Miss Reed. It was thanks to President Fuller. President Fuller concealed everything. That's why the Gray Family never discovered the truth about how I gouged out the red mole on your wrist. All they knew was that I had knocked you unconscious. Otherwise, my identity would have been exposed a long time ago. You would have learned that you were the real Rina Gray, but not from me. Aside from that, President Fuller also did other things to cover up the truth. Do you want to know what he did, Miss Reed?" Rina leaned over.
Sonia covered her ears. "Stop it! I don't want to listen! I don't want to listen!"
"I will tell you even if you don't want to listen!" Rina grabbed and pulled Sonia's arms away. "When I discovered that you and Mr. Coleman were planning to expose my identity, I became scared. Therefore, I took the initiative to contact President Fuller. I wanted to ask him whether he had any solutions, but he told me to wait. When I couldn't obtain a concrete answer, I became impatient. I simply couldn't sit around waiting any longer. That's why I deliberately started a fight with you at the hospital and grabbed a bunch of your hair."
Upon hearing those words, Sonia instantly recalled the incident.
That's right. She happened to encounter Rina when she stepped out of the elevator, and Rina had pulled out a fistful of her hair. She had not known that Rina was aiming for her hair and simply put the incident down as a misunderstanding. It was not until this moment that she discovered the truth—it was all premeditated.
"So… You gathered and attached the hair from that incident on your hair clip, then pretended that it had been your hair. Is that right?"
"That's right," Rina admitted readily. "Due to the difference in hair color, I even dyed my hair to match the color of your hair, Miss Reed. Not long after I dyed my hair, you and Mr. Coleman informed the Gray Family that I was not their biological daughter. That was when I suggested performing a DNA test. At the time, President Fuller did not know what I had done to you. When he heard that I asked for a DNA test, he immediately sent me a message to ask me about the situation. I did not hide the truth from him and told him about my plan. Although he was furious, he eventually chose to help me."
"He helped you exchange the DNA samples of the DNA test between you and the Carey Family!" The look in Sonia's eyes was dark.
Rina had mentioned earlier that the DNA labs had not been bribed. Nevertheless, the results of the DNA test between her and the Carey Family had indicated that she was indeed not their biological daughter. In that case, there could only be one explanation—Toby had either tampered with the results of the DNA test between Rina and the Carey Family or the DNA samples themselves.
"You guessed correctly, Miss Reed. President Fuller did indeed swap my hair with yours. He replaced your hair in the DNA samples of the DNA test with the Carey Family. In this way, the DNA tests with both couples would only contain samples of your hair, Miss Reed. None of them belonged to me. That's why… when the results of the DNA tests came out, one of the DNA tests showed a parent-child relationship and the other did not. President Fuller never intended for you to learn your true identity at all," Rina informed Sonia.
Sonia closed her eyes, a single tear sliding down her face.
Rina gripped Sonia by the shoulders. "Miss Reed, I've told you everything. Can you agree to save my father now? After all, you're the real Rina Gray. You're his real daughter. You must save him!"
"How can I save him?" Sonia opened her eyes, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes that stared back at Rina coldly. "I have never considered myself as their daughter. I am Sonia Reed, the daughter of the Reed Family. The Gray Family is my enemy. I will never rescue my enemy!"
"You are not the daughter of the Reed Family." Rina tightened her grip on Sonia's shoulders. "You're Rina Gray. You're the daughter of the Gray Family. You were stolen from home by the Reed Family. Besides, the feud between the Reed and Gray Families exists only between my parents and your
parents. It has nothing to do with you. Without my parents, you would not be here today. You are the real child of my parents, so you have to help Dad!"
