The Yeomans family huddled together, cursing and fuming in a hotel room. They conspired to align their stories.
“That wretch. She’s just like her heartless mother! A shameless dog! She’s just after our Adam’s inheritance!” Donna seethed with hatred.
She added, “Adam, you need to make a good impression on the show tomorrow. You must connect with your grandfather at all costs. We can’t let Audrey take advantage of you!
“She thinks she has grown strong, and dares to threaten me with prison! Well, I’m her real father. | gave her life. We'll see what laws | break if | kill her!” Wayne spat. His face contorted with anger.
Wandaflower was the name the Yeomans family used for Audrey’s birth mother, Wayne's wife. Women abducted to Sayeno Town were sent there to bear children, and no one cared about their real names.
Upon learning that her name was “Wanda Lambert“, Wayne always called her Wandaflower.
“| couldn’t bring Audrey back when she was 12. Now that she’s grown stronger, how could she willingly return with us to Sayeno Town? Wayne, you've taken money from Claude. If Audrey doesn’t return, explaining this to Claude won't be easy
“She wouldn't dare!” Wayne shouted, trembling with rage.
“Her nude photos were plastered everywhere. We'll spill the beans on the show tomorrow! Then everyone will know she took off her clothes for money at Sheysea University. She'll have no choice but to return and marry Claude.”
The next day at 12:30 pm, Audrey headed to the Sheysea TV station armed with her evidence. Before the show started, she spoke to Ryan on the phone then met the host, lan.
At 2:00 pm, the show recording began.
The studio was packed with an audience.
The show was already popular, and the recent incident involving Amelia and Aunt Anne at the airport. had heightened interest even further.
As usual, the host, lan, started with a brief introduction before inviting the Yeomans family to share their story.
Wayne, completely different from his threatening demeanor on the phone with Audrey, sat on the couch on stage. His skeletal body was hunched over, feigning pitiful silence.
Adam started talking about how much he missed his birth mother, his miserable childhood, and how he was bullied for being motherless. His tale moved many in the audience to tears.
Donna began to cry as she listened to Adam. She lamented her hardships and swore that she had never been a cruel mother— inlaw.
“Adam’s mother was treated like royalty in our house. We never let her do any chores. When she was indisposed, | took care of her, feeding her myself. But she abandoned her child and ran away because we were too poor.”
Adam’s aunt quickly consoled Donna. Her eyes were red with emotion.
Meanwhile, as lan had planned, Audrey sat in the makeup room backstage. She was utterly unfazed, watching the family’s performance on screen.
“How infuriating! How can a woman be so heartless, abandoning her child just because the family is poor!”
