“I’m not. I thought Shelley was familiar the first time I met her, but I didn’t think too much about it at that time. Then, I went to the spa and saw Shelley there. Charity said that the real Shelley had an accident when she was young that gave her a deep scar below her neck but there’s no trace of it on this Shelley. Furthermore, her personality is completely different from when she was in school back then. That’s why I pulled her hair previously and got it tested with Jeffery Cox’ hair. It turns out that they’re biological father and daughter.”
Cate looked at Shaun solemnly. “Don’t you remember that Rosabella Cox was taken away by an unlicensed van and her whereabouts are still unknown?”
“But I asked Hadley to check Shelley’s past and there’s nothing suspicious…”
“What you found might only be the surface. Do you even know the real Shelley Langley? Do you know her character?”
Shaun was stunned.
Cate continued, “Think carefully. Your friends keep saying that your memory is getting worse because I provoked you, but you must have been very sad as well when Sarah Langley died. Did this happen to you back then? From the time Shelley Langley started taking care of you, why have you been forgetting your memories?”
Shaun’s face went white.
Sure enough, it was only recently that he had frequent headaches and suffered from poor memory.
“I’m 100% sure that she’s Rosabella Cox. What’s her purpose in suddenly appearing by your side? Did she add anything into the milk and medications she usually prepared for you? Have you ever thought about that?”
Cate’s eyes were grim. “You got injections and took the medications every day, and you used to be able to get better before. Why have they become useless now?”
Shaun was speechless.
He also began to believe her words.
“You can tell someone to grab Shelley immediately and send her for paternity testing. Aren’t her parents still around? I guarantee that she’s definitely Rosabella Cox.”
Cate reminded sincerely, “Take the chance now while she doesn’t know yet. Also, whoever saved her is the person who arranged for her to be by your side. The person backing her must want to deal with you.”
“Yeah.”
Shaun immediately called Hadley. “Grab Shelley Langley immediately. I want to get a paternity test report on Shelley and Alex Langley within 24 hours.”
Cate felt slightly disappointed.
In the end, he still did not believe that the report was true, so he had to personally verify it before he could be sure.
However, it did not matter. What she said was true.
At 2:00 a.m.
Shaun suddenly received a phone call from Hadley. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, bad news. Shelley Langley is dead.”
“What happened?” Shaun suddenly sat up.
“I had her locked up in the house in the suburbs. Around midnight, the guards found someone trying to save Shelley and went after them, but once they returned, they found that the other two had been knocked unconscious and the house was set on fire. Although Shelley was rescued, she has been burned to death.”
Hadley said with chagrin, “I think they weren’t accomplices trying to save Shelley. They were trying to silence her.”
“I’m coming over now.”
Shaun hung up the phone and quickly drove to the place where the incident took place.
When he got out of the car, he saw Rodney standing in front of a body bag. His eyes were red, and when he saw Shaun, he rushed over to punch him.
“Calm down.” Shaun grabbed his fist.
“How can I be calm? Why did you lock Shelley up? She’s dead. You killed her!” Rodney roared at him. “I know she can’t be compared to Cate Cox, but she’s still Sarah’s sister. She’s an innocent girl.”
“She might not be Shelley Langley,” Shaun said coldly.
Rodney laughed in anger. “I’m not blind. Only half of her face was burned. I can still recognize her.”
“Cate did a paternity test on her. She’s Rosabella Cox, but she underwent plastic surgery to approach me.” Shaun frowned. “I detained her to find out who the mastermind is.”
“Are you telling the truth?” Rodney was dubious.
“Why would I lie to you?”
Just as Shaun finished speaking, Hadley suddenly came over and hesitated to speak, “Eldest Young Master Lyons, the forensic department has come out with the results. The report shows that Shelley and Alex Langley have biological relations.”
“Shaun Lyons, you b*stard!” Rodney really punched him in the face this time.
Shaun took a few steps back and barely regained his balance. His whole face was gloomy. “Are you sure there’s no mistake?”
“It’s Young Master Jewell’s hospital, so it shouldn’t be a mistake. Later, a forensic doctor will take the body for identification. It’ll be clarified whether she had undergone plastic surgery or not.”
“Alright.” Shaun rubbed his temples. “Find out who sent the people here last night.”
“What’s there to check? It’s clearly Cate Cox. You’re still helping her even now!” Rodney yelled gloomily, “That woman is too vicious! Shelley had never thought of seducing you, but Cate still tried to kill Shelley in every way possible.”
“Cate isn’t that kind of person.” Shaun denied. “She must’ve been tricked.”
“Even if she was tricked, she must be stupid. It’s because of her narrow-mindedness.”
“Rodney Snow, have you said enough?” Shaun could not stand it anymore.
“No, I haven’t. I’ve tolerated it all this time because she’s your wife, but I don’t want to tolerate it any longer.” Rodney growled.
“Stop fighting!” Chester got out of the car and heard their quarreling voices.
“I don’t care. I won’t let this matter rest just like this. Even if Shaun chooses to protect the mastermind, I’ll never forgive her.” Rodney turned and left after a cold warning.
“What do you think?” Chester walked to Shaun.
“Cate is indeed jealous of Shelley, but I don’t think she’d be so vicious.” Shaun rubbed his brows. “If Charity Neeson hadn’t said that Shelley was a fake, Cate wouldn’t have suspected her…”
“Charity Neeson.” Chester frowned. “It’s her again.”
After a pause, he said coldly, “She best be unrelated to this. Otherwise, I’ll make sure she’s doomed.”
…
In the afternoon, the autopsy results were sent to Shaun.
“Eldest Young Master Lyons, the burnt corpse at the scene has been determined to be Shelley Langley. Her parents have also done a full genetic comparison and confirmed it.”
When Hadley finished speaking, he saw Shaun covering his temples while his body shook in pain.
“Eldest Young Master Lyons…”
