Chapter 429
Alan stood rooted to the spot, as if he had been struck by thunder.
Ariel’s face changed greatly, and she immediately said to Christy, “What nonsense are you talking
about?! Where are the security guards? Hurry up and drag them out!”
“Whether I am talking nonsense or not, won’t it be clear if you ask Jared?” Christy looked at Anaya’s pale
face and said very happily, “After all, Jared is the person involved.”
Jared, who was sitting in the wheelchair, looked terrible. When everyone’s eyes fell on him, the corners
of his mouth twitched twice and he said, “There is no such thing… Christy, don’t slander me!”
“Oh, I forgot that you do not want everyone to know about this. If they do, you won’t have any evidence
to threaten Anaya anymore.” Christy sneered. “But I still have to thank you. If you hadn’t come to my

obedient as a dog all these years.”
“You-”
Flora said, “Christy, you’d better think about what you’re talking about. If you talk nonsense, you know
what I’m capable of!”
Christy knew that her scheme against Crystal had been exposed. In the future, she would no longer be
able to survive in the circle of Fairby, so she simply turned hostile. Anaya kept this secret for so many
years. It must be because it would not do any good to Alan. She did not mind implicating more people in
this. So she looked at Flora with a strange expression and said, “Mrs. Cook, are you saying that I talk
nonsense because it’s related to your son?”
“I heard that you hate Anaya very much and feel that she doesn’t deserve your son… In fact, you should
thank her. Otherwise, your son would have become the current Jared! Even if the Shamus Family is very
capable, you can’t suppress such a big thing like the fire that year, can you? After all, the fire almost
burned several people to death!”
Flora’s face was livid. She said, “You’re accusing others just because you’re exposed! How could Alan
be so careless?”
“I’m accusing others!?” Christy said, “You should ask Young Master Shamus yourself if that’s what
happened!”
Flora quickly looked at his son and grabbed his arm. “Alan, tell mom that things are not like this, right?
Tell mom clearly!”
Her eldest son had always been capable and upright. How could he have such a stain? It must be
slander!

smile appeared on her lips.
When she had decided to be with Jared back then, she had prepared to keep this secret forever. But
now, her old scars were exposed in public.
Flora’s urgent inquiry still lingered in her ears. After a few seconds that felt like forever, Anaya heard Alan
say, “It’s not like this at all. Master Bolton, why are you spreading rumors?”
Everyone was shocked. Christy couldn’t help but take a step back. “You’re unwilling to admit it!? I
heard that you’re a decent person, but I didn’t expect you to be a coward who doesn’t even dare to admit
his mistake. Instead, you let a woman help you cover it up!”
Alan felt that his lips were a little dry. He looked at Jared and said word by word, “Jared, it was you who
set fire in the laboratory and wanted to burn me to death. Why did you come out with another version
that I don’t understand?”
Anaya abruptly raised her head. “…What?!”
