Rosalie and Isabel stared at Damian for a long moment. Then one of them suddenly screamed and threw herself at him, clawing and cursing, "We're your sisters, and you actually did something like that to us!"The other one snapped out of her daze a second later and lunged at him, too, yanking at his clothes. Instead of cursing, she just burst into loud, ugly sobs.Damian shot to his feet and shoved the two of them away, gritting his teeth as he snapped, "How the hell was I supposed to know all three of you were my dad's bastards? You're staying in this room, and you're gonna sit tight. Nobody leaves before the results are out."If it turns out you really are my dad's illegitimate daughters, I'll give you some money, and you'll leave Saltonvale. You're never coming back here."One of the twins dropped to the floor when he pushed her and sat there wailing. The other wrapped her arms around her, holding her tight. She lifted her tear-streaked face to look up at Damian, sobbing so hard s

Damian watched as Sharon crawled toward him. Already annoyed, he waved a hand and signaled the bodyguards to keep her from getting closer.With a frown, he turned to David and said, "I don't think her daughters are my father's illegitimate children, but if the test results prove that they are, I'll have someone send them away. If they're not, then they're gonna pay for what Donald and Farrah did.""Mr. Halston, please… Please let my daughters go!" Sharon cried.Damian's expression darkened as he glanced at her. While pointing at her, he turned to the bodyguards and ordered coldly, "Until the test results are out, she's not allowed to say another word."David stood up and leaned in toward Damian, saying in a low voice, "Mr. Halston, your grandfather told me to tell you that whether or not the Lodge sisters have Halston blood, he will never allow them or Donald to be part of the Halston family. As for Ms. Sutherland, all Mr. Halston Senior wants is the great-grandchild she's carrying

Sharon pleaded, "I'm begging you, please just let Rosalie and Isabel go! I'll get on my knees if I have to!"Damian had no intention of stopping her. He just watched as she dropped to her knees and prostrated herself before him, repeatedly knocking her head on the floor.He said icily, "Do you think this pathetic display of yours means anything to me? I spent hundreds of millions on the woman I married, and your son screwed her and knocked her up with a bastard. You're the one most at fault in this whole mess because you failed to raise him properly."Now, I'm only taking your daughters as compensation, and you're so upset about it. Or do you seriously wanna bring your son home in a body bag? Because if you do, I can make it happen."Sharon kept knocking her head on the floor, her words tumbling out in a panic. "Mr. Halston, please. Donald is your brother, and Rosalie and Isabel are your sisters…"Damian snorted, his eyes full of amusement and mockery as he looked at her. "You thi

Sharon rushed into the inpatient wing of Crownspire Hospital and burst into a VIP ward. When she saw a man in his 40s or 50s standing by Donald's bed, she went completely hysterical. She clawed at the air and lunged straight at him while screaming shrilly."Give me back my daughters! This was all your lousy idea! Damian Halston has now taken my precious daughters, and he wants them to have his babies!"The middle-aged man grabbed her flailing hands and snapped, "Are you out of your mind? What do Rosalie and Isabel matter when compared to the Halston family fortune? You need to get your priorities straight!""I don't care! Give me back my daughters! You need to go and get them out of there!" Sharon shrieked.The man shoved her hard, making her fall back onto the couch in the room. He glared at her, hissing, "Once Donald inherits Joseph's fortune, I'll compensate your daughters. While he's recovering, you stay here at the hospital with him. Once he's better, take him back to Wharfpoi

About ten minutes later, when Vincent knocked on the door and came in, Damian quickly finished signing off on the document he was going through. He stood and pointed at the coffee table in his office, motioning for Vincent to sit there so they could have some tea.Damian took the seat by the tea set, put the electric kettle to boil, and started arranging the teapot and cups. He said, "You know everything there is to know about Donald by now, right? Notice anything off about it?"Vincent watched as Damian's hands fiddled with the teaware. After a moment of thought, he smiled and shook his head. "If Rosalie and Isabel Lodge were also your father's children, then that paternity test Donald did four years ago starts looking really shady."If your father had doubts about whether Donald was his son, he would've done a DNA test when the kid was born, not wait until years later. But now we've confirmed the Lodge sisters are actually Sharon and Edward's daughters."When Mr. Joseph had Sharo
