“The good one you say?” Cassie repeated incredulously. “You just said your weapon of choice is knives! How is that good?” Camila shrugged. “It’s less messy than bats.” Cassie just stared at her. “You… you scare me.” Camila grinned proudly. “That means I’m doing something right.” The table dissolved into laughter again, but Cassie wasn’t done. She leaned closer with mock seriousness. “Well, I don’t use bats or knives. I’m more of a hands-on person. You know... punching, kicking, that sort of thing.” That caught Camila’s full attention. Her eyes lit up as if she had found a long-lost kindred spirit. “Really? You fight with your hands? That’s fantastic! How many people have you beaten?” Cassie choked on her drink. “Excuse me?” “Or crippled,” Camila continued enthusiastically. “Broken a few ribs? Shattered a knee? Oh, tell me! The suspense is killing me already!” Cassie was laughing uncontrollably now. “I’m not violent! I mean... It's not that kind of violent!” Gloria g

For a heartbeat, nobody spoke. Then Lydia crossed her arms, tilting her chin proudly. “You might want to take a look at that, Cassie,” she said, her voice cold and gleeful. “Since you love pretending everything is perfect in this house.” Cassie blinked, once. Twice. She tried to control her anger, but it was becoming difficult. Lydia was getting on her god damn nerves. “What… what the hell do you mean by that?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly before it hardened. Lydia smirked. “Exactly what I said. Why don’t you open it and read it out loud for everyone here? Go on, let them all see the truth you’ve been hiding.” Nikolai, who had been watching quietly from where he stood, narrowed his eyes. His hand tightened around his sides “Lydia,” he said warningly, his voice low. “What are you trying to pull?” “Oh, please, Nikolai,” Lydia sneered. “Don’t defend her. This time, you’ll see what kind of woman you’ve been living with.” Cassie’s pulse pounded in her ears. She t

The air was so thick with tension that even a pin dropping could’ve sounded like thunder. Lydia stood in the middle of the dining room, clutching the crumpled DNA report like a shield, but her confidence had already begun to crumble. The family’s united front had broken through her arrogance... yet she refused to back down completely. Cassie hadn’t moved for several minutes. She stood there, composed, and her face eerily calm, Her silence was more terrifying than any shouting could have been. And when she finally took a step forward again, Lydia shivered. Her eyes locked coldly on Lydia. “You know what, Lydia,” she began, “I’m really curious about something. What exactly do you want to achieve with all of this?” Lydia blinked, confused by the sudden composure. “W–what are you talking about?” Cassie’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “No, seriously. What’s your endgame? Do you want to ruin my relationship with Nikolai? Humiliate me? Or are you just desperate to feel relevant

Joshua looked unbothered, as if expecting her reaction. “Cassie,” he began calmly, “you were my friend in the army. When everyone turned their back on me, you didn’t. You helped me when nobody else would.” “Yes!” Cassie shouted, tears burning in her eyes. “Because I pitied you! Because I thought you could change!” She took a shaky breath. “You stole from others, you raped a fellow soldier... everyone hated you, but I still tried to help. I treated you like a brother. I allowed Emily to call you Uncle. And when you were kicked out, I even gave you money! That was all!” Her voice cracked, emotion flooding out of her. “And this is how you repay me? By lying about something so vile? By dragging my daughter into your madness?” Joshua’s jaw tightened. He clenched his fists, breathing heavily. “Cassie,” he said finally, “I know this is hard to accept, but I couldn’t tell you earlier. I wasn’t financially stable then. But now I am. I have a company. I earn more than enough. You don’t h

Cassie froze. Her lips quivered. “You do?” “Of course,” Camilla said gently, wiping her tears with her thumb. “Cassie, you don’t need to convince us. We know Emily is Nikolai’s daughter. There’s no doubt. We don’t need a stupid DNA test to tell us what we already feel in our hearts.” Gloria nodded firmly. “That child… she’s family. When she runs into my arms the first time, when she laughs... I can feel the connection. We all can. No lie can change that.” Cassie’s tears flowed harder, but this time, they weren’t only from pain. They were from relief. “Someone’s trying to destroy our family,” Camilla continued, her tone firm. “They think if they break you, they can break all of us. But we’re not going to let them. You’re stronger than this, Cassie. You can fight this storm.” Lucas stepped forward, his expression calm but serious as always. He sat across from her and said quietly, “They’re right.” Cassie looked up at him, her lower lip trembling. "Dad..." she whispered. “I served
