Chapter 135
Any man would feel a punch in the gut seeing a video like that of the woman he’s into,
especially a man like Cameron, who always carried himself with a sense of pride and
superiority.
Lillian was truly panic–stricken this time, her eyes rimmed red with the pressure. Her gaze
met Faith’s just as she was about to speak.
“Lillian, you need to take the fall for this one. Cut ties with Spencer, and after a scandal
like this, there’s no way Michael will welcome you into the family.”
In a way, her words echoed Robert’s sentiments. Tears streamed down Lillian’s face as the
reality hit her hard. “Faith, I—‘
“Don’t tell me you can’t bear to leave Spencer. Listen, if you don’t do what I say, you
won’t see a dime in the future,” Faith said with clear impatience in her voice.
That statement left Lillian speechless, a look of mortification dawning in her eyes.

Robert and Miranda chimed in, trying to comfort her. “Lillian, don’t worry, we’ll make sure
you get a hefty sum.”
With Faith taking the lead, the three of them were now a united front. Lillian felt an
unprecedented humiliation engulfing her heart; years of cunning planning, and it had all
come to this.
She couldn’t stand it. The injustice was unbearable!
Her phone rang again. It was the orphanage director. Instinct told her it must be urgent.
She answered the call with a sense of dread, only to hear the director’s anxious voice on
the other end. “Lillian, someone’s come looking for our orphanage. There’s talk of a lady
who lost her daughter years ago, and there’s a slight issue with your file. Come quickly to
sort it out. If it’s really you, then Lillian, you might just be the bona fide rich girl you never
knew you were.”
Lillian thought she had misheard. “Director, are you sure you’ve got your facts straight?”
“I’m dead serious, Lillian. They’re here, and we need to do a DNA test pronto. We can’t
delay this.”
Lillian wasn’t particularly interested though. She figured it was some rich family’s missing
daughter. No matter how wealthy they were, they surely couldn’t hold a candle to the
Haywoods or the Dorseys.
A wave of despondency washed over her, her heart heavy with sorrow. Yet the director’s
next words perked her up. “Lillian, they’ve asked me not to reveal their identity, but let
me tell you, their family’s international standing is quite high, even higher than the
Haywoods‘, and comparable to the Dorseys‘. They also have a son who has been
searching for his sister all these years, which shows how deeply they care for their lost kin.
If your records match, you won’t have to worry for the rest of your life. You’ll be in a
position to help Bri then.”

“Mark, you’re telling me the truth, right?”
The director couldn’t help but chuckle, genuinely hoping for a good outcome for these
kids. “Of course, it’s the truth. If you can make it now, hurry over. They’re pressing hard
for this, and just between us, the Clements family is involved in the search. If the
Clements are stepping in, you can imagine the status of the other party.”
Lillian’s heart raced with excitement. Meanwhile, the other three in the living room were
glaring at her, annoyed that she was still on the phone.
Lillian couldn’t care less. After hanging up, she turned to Miranda with an electrified look
in her eyes. “Miranda, the director says I need to go back for a DNA test. I have to return
to the orphanage right now.”
If it turned out she was the lost heiress of a noble lineage, why should she grovel at the
feet of the Haywoods any longer?
The Haywoods, and Brielle, soon enough, they would all be looking up to her.
