Chapter 93: Chapter 93

When evening came and Mason Baker returned, there was still no opportunity.

She saw the old lady calling him "dear" every now and then and suddenly felt like laughing.

If she knew this "dear" was a fake, would she still call out so loudly and comfortably?

Really want to give her an unexpected blow.

Her grandmother’s worries were clear to her. Even if exposed, Mason Baker and The Bakers had already formed a deep familial bond.

It would be hard to sever. Original content can be found at novel✶fire.net

So, she now had to clarify her parents’ stance before making plans.

"Lucy, eat some more," Jackson Baker said, serving her food.

Lucy Eaton smiled at him, "Thank you, Dad, you eat too."

"Lucy, does your family know about you acknowledging godparents?" the old lady asked.

"What about your maiden family?"

"I have nothing to do with my maiden family; they don’t need to know."

The old lady’s eyes showed curiosity, "Does this mean severing ties? However, they are your biological parents, isn’t this too ruthless?"

"Not biological," Lucy Eaton said with a smile, "I originally thought they were my biological parents; yesterday, the mother I thought was my birth mother told me I wasn’t hers, that I was picked up."

The family looked at each other, and Mason Baker casually chimed in, "So, you’re a bastard then?"

That completely angered Lucy Eaton.

Her face turned utterly cold and grim.

"Dare to say that again?"

"What’s wrong with calling you a bastard?" Mason Baker said arrogantly, "What? Can’t say it?"

Just as Jackson Baker was about to scold him, Lucy Eaton slowly stood up.

"Lucy, don’t be angry, I’ll teach him a lesson for you," said Jackson Baker.

Lucy Eaton tried hard to calm her emotions, her eyes as cold as ice, only glanced at Mason Baker, then suddenly laughed.

As if the cold face earlier was just an illusion.

"If I am a bastard, then what are you, Mason Baker?" Lucy Eaton said slowly, scanning everyone at the table, "I didn’t intend to say some things today, but since Mason Baker is so shameless, I won’t hide it anymore."

"You... you little girl... who’s shameless?" The old lady pointed her finger at her.

"Grandma, don’t rush, let me finish what I’m about to say, then you can speak." Ignoring the old lady’s sullen face, she looked at Mason Baker, "A few days ago, using Dad’s identity and privilege to help your birth mother. You’re really playing a good dad. You really think I know nothing? Mason Baker, you’ve stolen twenty-four years of my life, and you still have the nerve to call me a bastard? Who gave you the courage??!!"

Everyone present was shocked at her words.

Even Mason Baker, who had been looking relaxed earlier, was now flustered.

The only one who remained calm was Lucy Eaton.

"This... Lucy, what do you mean by this?" Liora Hughes asked urgently.

"Mom, don’t worry, there are too many things, I’ll tell you all one by one." Mason Baker became more flustered as she found it more gratifying to smile, "Grandma had long known he wasn’t your and Dad’s biological son, which is why she never liked him. Grandma originally wanted to find me first and then decide what to do, but she searched for over twenty years. Considering the deep familial bond between you all and Mason Baker, she said you probably wouldn’t want to sever it. Plus, considering that Grandpa and Grandma value boys over girls, fearing our mother and I would be wronged, Mason Baker already knew you weren’t his biological parents. I have the DNA test results of Jackson Baker and his birth mother, Autumn Fletcher, same goes for me, Dad, and you. I originally wanted to gauge your attitude before deciding whether to tell you, but he pushed too far, I had to reveal the truth. If he’s in this family, I’m not; if I’m here, he’s not. How you choose, you discuss. No matter the outcome, I will respect your decision."

This bomb suddenly exploded, leaving everyone a bit stunned.

Mason Baker’s expression instantly turned grave, and Liora Hughes’ eyes turned red as she looked at Lucy Eaton, "Did your grandma tell you this personally?"

"I’ll call and let you and Grandma talk in detail now."

When Liora Hughes received confirmation from her mother’s mouth and saw the cold sweat from the panic on Mason Baker’s head, she knew it was true.

She hung up the phone and almost used all her strength to throw herself onto Lucy Eaton, weeping uncontrollably, "No wonder... no wonder... your grandma never liked him, no matter what he did, he couldn’t win her favor, no wonder, you look so much like your dad, turns out you’re our real daughter."

Jackson Baker forcibly controlled his emotions, and he too slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on Mason Baker, "Is Autumn Fletcher really your biological mother? And you knew all along?"

Mason Baker knew he couldn’t hide it anymore, as this was something a DNA test could reveal the truth of.

His brows furrowed, speaking with annoyance, "Yes, she’s my biological mother, and I have known it for a long time."

Liora Hughes’ eyes narrowed, quickly stepping up to Mason Baker, unable to resist and slapped him, he clutched his face, looking at her in disbelief, "Mom... you hit me?"

"You knew this long ago but hid it from me and your dad? What are your intentions?!" Liora Hughes trembled with anger, "We gave you the best of everything, raised you, and you hid such a big thing from us? If it weren’t for today’s revelation, were you planning to hide it from us for life?!"

"I planned to hide it because I feared you wouldn’t want me anymore if you found out!" Indeed, this was his biggest fear, "That’s why I never dared to say it! Mom, you raised me, you know my disposition well, your son would never be ungrateful! I was just too scared, scared you’d kick me out of this house."

"How can you be so foolish," the old lady said mournfully, "Your mom and dad may not have given birth to you, but you were raised and grown up under our watch, the kindness of raising is greater than giving birth, this matter is the fault of the adults, it shouldn’t involve you."

"Mom..." Jackson Baker called out, signaling her not to say that.

The old lady realized Lucy Eaton’s presence only then and awkwardly added, "Tomorrow, we’ll do a test. Once it’s confirmed you’re truly a part of the Baker Clan, everything we owe you will be returned."

"No need to wait until tomorrow, let’s do the test and confirmation right now." Jackson Baker called the secretary over and instructed them a bit.

Soon, the secretary took hair samples from several of them away.

While waiting for the results, everyone, in fact, already had a conclusion in their hearts, though just needing final confirmation.

Liora Hughes was so overwhelmed with emotion that she kept crying.

The son she had loved so dearly turned out not to be hers, while her biological child was raised as discarded and neglected.
