Chapter 485 My Whole Family Will Be Doomed Over in Xemrich, about one hundred kilometers from
Jadeborough, the moonlight draped over the vast sea like a silver veil. To the right of the sea, the
deafening sound of waves crashing upon the rocks at the bottom of a cliff rang out in the air. Atop the
cliff, Brenda dragged Genevieve, who had her hands and feet tightly bound, behind her until they were
only two or three steps away from the edge. All it would take was one wrong move to send them
tumbling down and shattering their bones into a million pieces. Brenda could not care less as the
strong winds disheveled her hair. She held onto Genevieve firmly with one hand while pointing toward
the sea with the other.
“Look down there. Isn’t it beautiful?” Her expression softened as she recalled the past. “Jan and I grew
up together. We were in the same class in kindergarten. He brought me here and proposed to me
before he went to study abroad. After that, I went abroad with him. We returned after graduating and

little angel. She was so adorable, and Jan doted on her. No matter where he went for social events,
he’d make it a point to come back home early and spend time with her…” Suddenly, she grabbed
Genevieve’s shirt, appearing somewhat agitated. “I’m as fit as a fiddle, and my family doesn’t have a
history of illnesses. So tell me why my darling daughter has autism! Why does she ignore me?” Already
feeling weak from being drugged, Genevieve felt even more light-headed after getting shaken violently.
In an effort to stay conscious, she bit down hard on the tip of her tongue.
“Mrs. Wasco, a child could have autism due to many different factors. It’s not a terminal illness, and
there are treatments for it,” she said gently. Brenda turned to Genevieve and shouted, “You’re talking
nonsense! If it’s treatable, why can’t I get her to calm down even though I gave birth to her, and she’s
my own flesh and blood?” After a brief pause, she added angrily, “You’re just like the other teachers.
You harbor malicious intentions and are plotting to seduce my husband!” I saw it before with my own
eyes! I saw Shirley’s music teacher strip naked inside our bedroom and throw herself at him! Jan and I
got into a huge argument, and I forbade any other woman from entering the house. However, after
telling me that I needed to rest and forcing me to return to my parents’ house, Jan resumed his search
for music teachers. Each was more beautiful than the last! I doubt he was genuinely looking for a music
teacher. Instead, Jan was finding himself a second wife!
He’d let her stay at our house and even divorce me… Genevieve stared at her wordlessly. Not only is
my ex-husband wealthier than your husband, but so is my older brother! Do I look crazy? Why would I
want to seduce your husband? Nonetheless, she dared not say anything for fear of provoking Brenda
and causing the both of them to fall to their deaths. Instead, she waited until Brenda seemed calmer
before saying softly, “When you returned home this afternoon, didn’t you notice that Shirley was a little

“You cheered my daughter up as if you were her mother.” Her response left Genevieve dumbfounded.
Brenda walked closer to the cliff’s edge and pulled hard at Genevieve. As the latter’s body jerked
forward, the sight of the pitch-black darkness below made her hair stand on end. “Let’s die together! I
want Jan to wallow in guilt for the rest of his life!” Just then, a beam of light shone upon the two women
from behind, and several men hurried out of a car.
When Jan saw Brenda holding Genevieve hostage while standing a step away from the edge, he was
so alarmed that his knees buckled. “Darling, d-don’t do anything rash…” Brenda immediately wrapped
her arms around Genevieve to stop the men from approaching. Then, she turned her gaze toward Jan
and gave a hollow laugh. “Jan Wasco, I guessed it all along. Finding a music teacher for Shirley was
merely a ruse. You’ve gotten sick and tired of me. You want to find someone young and beautiful and
have two healthy children with her, don’t you?” “That’s not true. She’s really Shirley’s music teacher.
Darling, just bring her over here first and I’ll explain everything to you,” Jan said coaxingly. “Are you
panicking because you’re afraid I’ll jump over with your lover?” Of course, I’m panicking! If anything
happens to Genevieve, my whole family will be doomed!
