Chapter 441
Xavier wanted to explain that nothing had ever happened between him and Daphne. However, since he was still pretending to have amnesia, he replied, "I don't." He closed his eyes. "Let's sleep.' Yvette shifted slightly out of his embrace, feeling uneasy as she tried to fall asleep. Since she had to go to the hospital for a prenatal checkup tomorrow, she needed to rest well tonight.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Meanwhile, Zoey finally felt some peace as she lay in her hospital bed at Tirion Hospital.
Lawrence had already sent people to investigate who had assaulted her. However, the Yandell family had made many enemies since their return, making it difficult to pinpoint the culprit. Yara was still angry about the incident during the engagement party. However, she rushed to see Zoey as soon as she heard what had happened. "Zoey, are you okay?" she asked. Zoey couldn't bother to give her the least bit of respect. "Do you even need to ask? Are you blind?"
She had previously been willing to show Yara some respect, given that the latter had been married to Lawrence for five years. But the thought of Yvette secretly flirting with Jeremiah made Zoey furious with Yara.
Despite Zoey's impatient tone, Yara didn't get angry. Instead, she sympathetically adjusted the blanket for her. "I'm sorry; I didn't mean to upset you. Everything will be alright."
In front of Zoey, Yara tried to act like a caring mother.
Zoey, however, looked the other way. "Stop pretending to be a loving mother. Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Is it because I didn't let you speak at the engagement party? Are you holding a grudge and letting your biological daughter seduce Jerry in my place?"
Zoey's words left Yara momentarily stunned. It took her a while to utter a reply. "Zoey, is there a misunderstanding? Why would I have Yvette seduce Jeremiah?" After all, Yara despised Yvette.
Despite her words, Zoey believed she was just acting and exaggeratedly claimed that Jeremiah and Yvette had known each other for a long time and that Yvette had been secretly pursuing Jeremiah.
Yara's face turned red with anger at those words. Balling her fists, she cursed, "I underestimated her. I never thought someone so useless could know how to seduce a man!
"Zoey, don't worry. I will make sure this is resolved. You're the only one who can be the second daughter-in-law of the Lane family."
Zoey listened to Yara's assurances, feeling skeptical. "You would go against your biological daughter for me?"
At this point, Yara decided not to hide the truth from Zoey any longer. "Zoey, to be honest, I am your biological mother."
In the past when Lawrence had no
money or power, he hadn't been in a position to fight against Gemma. Now after five years, Yara was eager to reveal the truth to Zoey.
Zoey's pupils shrank when she heard this. "What did you say?"
"I said I am your biological mother. Gemma isn't your real mother; she can't have children."
"You're lying." Zoey couldn't believe it.
Fearing Zoey wouldn't believe her, Yara took out a DNA test she had prepared beforehand and handed it to her. "Take a look."

Zoey clenched the paper tightly, forcing herself to remain calm. "My father..."

"Zoey, I know this is hard for you to accept right now. I can explain it to you slowly," Yara continued. "No need to explain." Zoey interrupted her. "Just leave me alone. Don't tell Dad about this yet." Yara agreed repeatedly before leaving.
As soon as Yara left, Zoey tore up the DNA test and threw its pieces into the trash can.
