Chapter486
The second time was Jameson’s birthday party. I just looked at
her one more time and thought Evangeline treated her that
way, and she had a good temper just like Daphne.
At that time, he also thought about how he cut her braid when
they were kids, almost got beaten up by Fernanda, and it was
Daphne who begged for him.
He clearly felt like it, mentioned it to Kyson, even commented
on Kyson’s Instagram, knew Kyson was looking for Daphne, but
somehow just never thought of Daphne.
Made things turn out like this.
Terrence was just too much.
I already knew Bethany was Daphne, but I kept it from all of
them.
He didn’t get a chance to ask how Kyson knew.
Forget it, time was tight, let’s just go to the McConnell’s villa
first, Kyson would talk about it later.
Soon we arrived at the McConnell’s villa.

After they came in, the atmosphere inside was pretty tense.
Jameson was banging his cane and questioning Randy: “Randy, how many years have we known each other? Don’t forget, back
when you were in trouble, I was the one who helped you out
and lent you a lot of money to get through it. And then, what did you do to our Daphie? When she was little, she used to call
you grandpa, and you even held her!”
Because Terrence had told him ahead of time that Bethany was
Daphne, he asked him to help hold off the Lamont family and
the Duarte family, and not to tell them that Bethany was.
Daphne.
Terrence didn’t want a divorce.
But now even the Lamont family and the Duarte family knew.
At this moment, Terrence didn’t tell him how to fix this.
He could only put on a thick skin and smile awkwardly, saying,
“This was my fault. I didn’t know before that Beth was Daphie.
Don’t worry, we’re all family now, and now we’re even in–laws.
If there was anything wrong before, we’ll fix it on our side. Beth
won’t be treated unfairly again.”
Jameson snorted, “Easy for you to say. You think you can just
wipe out everything you did to bully our Daphie with a few
Chapter486
light words? Dream on. Our Daphie is sweet and sensible, she
doesn’t hold it against you, but I can’t just let it go.”
“Indeed, the Lamont family couldn’t be relied on either. Daphie
was someone our two families agreed on from the start, the
Lamont family’s future daughter–in–law. The McConnell family
not only beat us to it, but also let her suffer so much. You had to
give us an explanation!”
Lucian’s dad, Efrain Lamont, wasn’t happy about it. He and
Kyson’s dad, Seamus Duarte, had been through life–and–death
stuff together in the army. He and his wife both really liked
Daphne, almost treated her like their own daughter. All these
years, not being able to find Daphne had weighed on both of
them. Who would’ve thought that girl ended up mute out there.
She was actually lucky and married into the McConnell family,
but then she suffered so much in the McConnell family.
How could they swallow this?
Randy felt pretty awkward and said, “Beth and Terrence are
already married, they even have a kid, they’ve started a new
family. As elders, we can’t just break up their home, right? Ast
long as you help talk them into staying together and not getting
divorced, I’ll give you whatever explanation you want.”
Jameson was so mad he almost jumped up.

“You wish!”
Lucian’s dad also said, “The divorce has to happen. Daphie was
Lucian’s fiancee, we needed to set things right as soon as
possible.”
