Chapter 6

Author: Gia
“Chase Tanner, you ungrateful bastard! I rescued you from that orphanage! Now you’re using me as a stepping stone to claw your way into the Tanner family? Don’t you have a conscience?

“Don’t believe him! None of you can believe him!”

Jenna continued crying and struggling, but no one looked at her anymore.

My mother, Evelyn, clutched my hand tightly as tears streamed down her face.

Old Mr. Tanner stared at me for a long time, as though he were finally seeing the truth.

“My child.”

    “I caused his death. I killed your son.“I couldn’t face you all these years because I was consumed by guilt. I tried to make amends, but everything I did only made things worse.“Jenna is the only family I have left. I was afraid that once you learned the truth, you’d make her pay with her life too.“That’s why I helped her put on this entire act.“I wasn’t born evil.”Mr. Reed choked on his words and coughed up a mouthful of blood.Everyone around him turned deathly pale.“I deserve to die. If you want me dead, I won’t complain.“I only ask that you spare her. Please spare my daughter.”Old Mr. Tanner trembled, struggling to breathe.He slammed his cane against the floor and nearly lost his balance before steadying himself.He closed his eyes, using every ounce of strength to suppress the fury raging inside him.Then he spoke in a low, hoarse voice.“Someone take Henry Reed, Raymond Tanner, and the rest of these little bastards to the police.“I want every debt from twe

    I looked down at her, my gaze cold enough to cut.“I remember everything.“That’s exactly why I can be this ruthless now.”Archie finally gritted his teeth.“Don’t listen to her nonsense. She planned all of this. I had nothing to do with it.”“Shut up!”Jenna whipped around and screamed at him like a madwoman.“You were the one who said we’d take the entire Tanner fortune together!“You said you wanted to become the grandson who reminded Old Mr. Tanner most of Sean!“Now that everything has fallen apart, you’re trying to blame me?“You’re a monster!”When they started turning on each other, Old Mr. Tanner waved one hand.Several men entered carrying two large basins of boiling oil.“If your stories still don’t match, salt water won’t be poured over you next time.“It’ll be boiling oil.”Archie’s face twisted, but he remained silent.Then his father, Raymond Tanner, screamed.“Stop! Don’t torture me anymore! I’ll talk!“The child. Reed and I were behind it! We hired so

    The air seemed to freeze.Mr. Reed’s face turned deathly pale, and his breathing grew erratic.He raised a hand as if to defend himself, but no words came out.Old Mr. Tanner clenched his jaw and tightened his grip on his cane.His voice was low but vicious.“Reed, do you have anything to say for yourself?”Evelyn suddenly dropped to her knees and struck her forehead against the floor before him.“Dad, I’m not afraid of anything anymore.“Sean spent his final moments desperately trying to find Chase. If I still refuse to speak for him, then I truly don’t deserve to call myself his wife!“If Mr. Reed had anything to do with this and you choose to spare him today, then tomorrow, I’ll join your son in the grave!”Mr. Reed’s face turned livid.His lips trembled as he struggled to remain calm.“I-I got that burn years ago during a rescue operation. Someone spilled hot water…”“Doctor!”Old Mr. Tanner roared and struck the jade handle of his cane so hard that it shattered.“Ex

Grandpa failed you.”At some point, the comments before my eyes had stopped.Only a blank screen remained.No one dared to write another word.Old Mr. Tanner slowly closed his eyes before speaking coldly.“Hold Jenna here. She isn’t going anywhere.”Mr. Reed’s expression darkened.He rushed forward, forced himself to remain calm, and bowed deeply to Old Mr. Tanner.“Sarge, don’t listen to a child’s nonsense. Some

    Jenna didn’t want her coworkers to know I came from a poor background, so I stayed in the shadows for three years and never once stepped into her public life.When she told me other men gave their girlfriends designer bags and cars, I worked harder and lived as frugally as possible, all so I could buy her a limited-edition necklace.I thought she was simply waiting for me to make something of myself.I’d even planned to marry her once the matter with the Tanner family was settled.But now, the woman who had promised to stay with me through everything had taken a knife to my back and pushed me straight into the flames.She had never truly stood beside me.She’d sold me straight to hell.I stared at the sound system and spoke quietly.“Play it.”A terrifying silence descended over the hall.Then the recording began.It was Jenna’s phone conversation with Archie from that morning.“Hello? Archie, he’s already gone inside.”Jenna’s voice came through clearly, her contempt impo

    “The test shows a 99.9 percent probability that Old Mr. Tanner and Chase Tanner are biological grandfather and grandson.”The entire hall fell silent.Evelyn rushed forward and pulled me into her arms, sobbing so hard she could barely breathe.“My son. It really is you.”My eyes reddened as I looked at this worn and weary woman who had stood by me from beginning to end.Old Mr. Tanner gripped his cane.His lips trembled, but no words came out.Everyone’s expression changed.Everyone except Jenna.She sighed and looked at me with pity.“Chase, I can’t believe you’re still refusing to admit what you’ve done.”She paused and looked around the room.“He bribed the doctor. That report is fake.”I let out a cold laugh.“Have you lost your mind? I’d never met this doctor before today. How could I possibly have bribed him? Who would even…”“If no one believes me, search the doctor’s office right now. You’ll find the original report there.”Jenna cut me off, her tone suddenly sh
