Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 1657: "Brother, I'll go with you!" Upstairs, Erica and Issac were discussing something when Leon and Hattie walked in hand in hand.

Erica caught a glimpse of her son's expression and was somewhat surprised. Even on the day when the Riddle Group was destroyed, Leon never looked so sad.

Erica immediately stood up and walked over to ruffle Hattie's hair. "What's wrong with Leon?" Leon took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, and looked at Issac. "Father, | have a question for you." Issac saw the seriousness in his son's eyes and straightened up as well. "What is it?" Leon looked into Issac's eyes. "Please think carefully about whether Daphne before she disappeared is really the same person as Daphne after she disappeared." Issac was shocked.

Erica and Hattie were also stunned.

The three of them focused their attention on Leon.

After a long time, Hattie was the first to come back to her senses. She clenched her fists tightly. "Brother, what do you mean by that?" Leon looked at Issac. "Miss Selena called me just now asking me to investigate whether Aunt Daphne's disappearance was accidental or intentional..." "According to her status, if there isn't anything concrete, she wouldn't lower herself to remind us..." Leon sneered,"ls it really an accident that Kiera gave birth to Nevaeh who looks exactly like Aunt Daphne? Not to mention what Aunt Daphne did afterwards... even Kiera's daughter Penelope is more important than all of The Riddle family's sons and daughters combined..." Leon rubbed his forehead and asked, "Father, when Auntie disappeared, you were already ten years old. Did you never suspect our mother?" Isaac froze in his seat, his eyes deep with thought.

After a while, he spoke up again. "When Nevaeh first disappeared, a girl named Kiera appeared at the orphanage." "It just so happened that Daphne saw her because she was desperate to have another daughter after losing Nevaeh. The Riddle family sympathized with her and allowed Kiera to be raised as their own." "And so it was that an outsider gradually replaced Nevaeh and became the true heiress of the Riddle family..." Isaac seemed to remember something and his voice grew colder. "Mother really loved Nevaeh once upon a time.

She had two sons before finally having a daughter." "From age one to five, Mother cherished Nevaeh like a precious gemstone. When she was five years old, Mother took her out one day and suddenly she was gone." "The Riddle family used all their resources but couldn't find her back then... now | think maybe there wasn't just one missing child at that time..." And then there's his real... mother.

This explains why Daphne acted so strangely.

Kiera is her true child which is why she would do anything for Kiera even if it meant exploiting or neglecting Nevaeh.

Daphne's greatest skill lies in how well she can love Kiera without mistreating or ignoring other children in the Riddle family.

At least on the surface level anyway; publicly speaking Daphne always doted on her 'son' and 'grandson’.

But no matter how good of an actress Daphne may be some things are simply different underneath it all.

Isaac's eyes were a bit dazed. "I remember when | was little, my mother loved spicy food, especially when she was pregnant with Nevaeh. Every dish had to have chili peppers in it. She always told me and my younger brother that this baby in her belly would be a lively and active daughter..." "If she eats more spicy food, her daughter will have a fiery personality and won't be bullied in the future..." "But | don't know when it started, she suddenly changed her taste and started liking sweet things..." Isaac may have had some doubts deep down, but that was still his "mother". Even if he suspected something, he couldn't imagine that his "mother" could be fake.

As for Nevaeh...

Leon remembered the blood-stained doll and his eyes became incredibly cold. He turned around and walked towards the door. "I'm going to see Grandpa!" What Isaac could sense, didn't Maddox notice? Hattie snapped out of her shock and followed him. "Brother, I'll go with you!" She had to find out the truth. If this Daphne really was fake, she would definitely kill Daphne! Riddle Group Empire.

After Selena made the phone call obediently returned to let her mother dress her up.

She is now Madam Samantha's adopted daughter and stays by her side dutifully.

Selena sat in front of the mirror as Madam Samantha helped style her hair. She blinked lightly at her mother,"Mommy, do you think it's strange looking at me like this?" Madam Samantha held a wooden comb as she gently tied up Selena's hair while laughing,"A mother never judges their own child by their appearance alone; besides Selena is now truly..." Selena didn't hear the rest and asked in confusion, "What was that?" "It's nothing," Madam Samantha smiled lightly. "No matter what Selena looks like, she will always be her mother's little baby." Selena laughed happily but then had another question. "Many people in the capital say | look like Callum, my real father. Mom... why don't | look like Dad?" The question sounded a bit childish.

Madam Samantha's eyes flickered with something indiscernible as she chuckled. "Don't let your father hear you say that or he might punish you." "My father would never punish me," Selena said confidently. "He could list more things where | resemble him than Callum..." Madam Samantha tapped her nose and said, "Rest assured, you are definitely your parents’ biological child." But as for why Selena looked like Callum, Madam Samantha didn't say.

Selena looked at Madam Samantha with surprise.

She had a feeling that Madam Samantha hadn't finished speaking yet.

But this was her mother and Selena couldn't possibly force her to reveal anything else. Knowing that she was their biological child was enough for now.

Madam Samantha styled Selena's hair into an exquisite bun while a maid brought out an antique box.

With both hands, Madam Samantha opened the box and took out a moonlight-white gown embroidered with silver thread in ancient rose patterns emitting an indescribable sense of nobility and faint fragrance.

When Selena put on the dress, it seemed as if something inside of her blood had been awakened and began to boil over.

She looked at the person in the mirror, familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar, and smiled slightly.
