Jeffry couldn't help but chuckle, though the sound was hollow.
"You really call this way just to ask such a dull question?" "Then let's spice things up, shall we?" Madisyn leaned forward, her gaze piercing.
"After you got arrested, did you reach out to that person? Did that person show any interest in helping you?" Her words hit Jeffry like a sledgehammer.
His mask of indifference shattered, his shock evident.
By the the tried to regain his composure, it was far too late.
He swallowed hard.
"What on earth are you talking about?" "Don't play dumb with me," Madisyn said, her voice stern.

The Chapman Group thrived because of me, so I am well aware of its every detail.
Large sums of money have been funneled into your company regularly.
You know exactly where that cfrom, don't you?" Jeffry's mouth tightened as he replied, "That was just someone repayinga favor." Madisyn's lips curled into a smirk.
"And how exactly did you get someone to owe you a billion dollars?" Jeffry's eyes darkened, his wariness growing with every word she spoke.
How had he underestimated her so gravely, after raising her all these years? "Believe what you want, but I'm telling the truth," Jeffry muttered, though his voice wavered with uncertainty. Madisyn arched an eyebrow, her gaze unyielding.
"Is that so? Then tell me, do you think that person will cto your rescue once you're behind bars?" Madisyn's gaze bored into him, her voice as sharp as the edge of a blade.

"Jeffry," Madisyn continued, "tellthe truth, and maybe just maybe -I'll forgive you." A flicker of hope crossed Jeffry's face.
He hesitated, then looked up at her, his voice tinged with desperation.
"You promise?" "I promise," Madisyn assured him.
"I just need to know the truth." Jeffry exhaled, the weight of his secrets pressing heavily on him.
After a moment, he began, his voice low and measured, "I don't know who that person is.
But as you grew up, it becclear you weren't our child.
You are too beautiful, too delicate, nothing like us.
I was going to get a paternity test when someone contacted me, tellingyou'd been swapped, that you weren't ours." Madisyn listened, the confirmation chilling yet unsurprising.
"When I learned this," Jeffry continued, "I wanted to send you to an orphanage.
But then this person toldto keep you and said that as long as you were alive, they'd senda monthly allowance.

And I didn't treat you too badly, did I? When Anyway, later on, when we found Jenna, thought about sending you ET away. But then the person contactedagain.
They toldto hand you over to Jenna's parents.
So I did." A shadow crossed Jeffry's face as he continued, his voice tinged with regret, "After that, I never heard from them again.
The payments stopped, and I couldn't reach them.
It's like they vanished into thin air." Madisyn's brow furrowed.
"Didn't you ever wonder why they did this Jeffry shrugged helplessly.
"Of course I wondered.
But they wouldn't tellany details, so I learned not to care, as long as the money kept coming." Hearing that, Madisyn fell into deep thought.
"So Jeffry asked cautiously, "have you figured out who that person is?
