Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Chapter 280

All the way there, no matter what Scott asked, Fiona remained silent. Before long, the looked like it had been

abandoned for years.

stopped in front of a mansion that

The yard of the mansion was overgrown with weeds, but even so, one could still glimpse its former splendor.

As soon as Scott stepped inside, a strong sense of déja vu hit him. He didn't even need Fiona to guide him; he

somehow knew the way.

Fiona said, "Mr. Hastings, this was your childhood home."

Scott thought, 'My childhood home?*

Scott looked around at everything that seemed so familiar, and a flicker of memory began to form in his mind.

No wonder everything felt so familiar.

So many memories he should have had flashed in his mind, but he couldn't grasp them. The more he tried, the

more his head ached.

Walking through the garden and into the hall, he saw furniture covered with white cloth and the white marble

floor reflecting the sunlight. The echoes of laughter from the past seemed to linger in the air. 'Dad, Mom, Harry,

Nathan... He thought to himself and seemed to remember something, yet it also felt like he remembered nothing

at all.

"Scott..." A gentle female voice cfrom behind him.

Scott turned around and saw a woman in a simple dress walking towards him slowly. He looked at her with a hint

of unfamiliarity; there was nothing related to her in his memory.

"Scott, I'm your sister." Phoebe said as she held Scott's hand, her deep brown eyes fixed on his. Their eyes had a

certain resemblance.

Scott stared at Phoebe in front of him for a moment, feeling a bit hesitant.

Fiona said, "Mr. Hastings, she is your real sister; you are related by blood."

Phoebe said, "It's completely normal that you don't recognize me. Our mother lostwhen | was little, and I've

been searching for my birth parents for years. I've finally found them. Scott, you're my brother." Scott broke free

and took two steps back. Seeing his cautious expression, Phoebe felt a bit hurt.

Fiona continued to explain from the side, "Mr. Hastings, you used to be the young master of the Hastings family,

which was quite a prestigious family in Dellanex. The reason it's like this now is all because of that woman who

lives with you now." "You're talking nonsense!" Scott immediately retorted, his brows furrowed tightly as he

looked at Fiona. "Why did you bringhere, and what exactly do you wantto see?"

Fiona sighed. "Why can't you understand yet? Whether I'm talking nonsense, you'll see for yourself." With that,

Fiona took out a paternity test and scolor-printed photos.

Fiona said, "This is your biological father, and he's still in the hospital. This is your mother, left in this state of

broken arms and legs by someone. And here's your brother, currently in jail. And here's Ms. Davidson's blood

type comparison with yours."

One photo after another hit Scott's eyes like a punch. His hands were trembling. All the photos and papers

slipped from his unsteady grip, scattering all over the floor.

Chapter 280

He couldn't quite explain why, but looking at these photos made his heart ache sharply. It felt like all the blood in

his body had frozen. His face instantly lost all color. "Scott, if you don't believe me, we can go for another DNA

test right now. | truly am your biological sister." Phoebe stepped forward and held Scott's hand.

What she said was the truth, not fearing any verification. She had been looking into her own origins all along,

She never imagined, even in her wildest dreams, that after all the searching, she would turn out to be the long-

lost daughter of the Hastings family.

Fate really played tricks on people. It was surprising how closely connected she was to Ophelia.

It was such a twist of fate-if she had been found back then, she would have been the one married to Kenneth.

The one by Kenneth's side should have been her now. Ophelia took everything that should have belonged to her.

Phoebe said, "Scott, it was Ophelia who caused Mom to end up this way, and Dad was also harmed by her.

Everything in Hastings family was taken by that woman. What she has now should have been ours, Scott..." "No,

that's not true... Opielia, my sister isn't like that..." Scott shook his head repeatedly, his face showing panic.

Phoebe covered her mouth and shook her head, looking utterly heartbroken.

Scott said, "Mr. Hastings, don't you understand yet? You're being used. You can't remember anything now

because of Ophelia. She's the one who sent you abroad.

Think about it, everything you've been told since you woke up was from her, but is that really true? Can you be

sure?" Scott held his head, feeling like countless ants were gnawing at his nerves. He couldn't remember

anything. The photos on the ground overlapped with flashes of memories in his mind. "No, it's not like that..."

Fiona said, "Mr. Hastings, don't be foolish. This is your real sister. You've ended up like this, forgetting everything,

because of Ophelia. Do you really want to recognize your enemy as your sister?"

Phoebe cried bitterly. "It's alright... Scott, as long as you're happy, it doesn't matter if you don't seeas your

sister. You can do whatever you want."

Scott's deep brown eyes lost all sense of direction. He looked at Phoebe in front of him, then at the familiar

house, took a few steps back, and desperately ran towards the villa's front gate

He thought, 'How could this happen? It's not supposed to be like this...

Fiona asked, "Ms. Davidson, should we go after him?"

Phoebe shook her head, her eyes a bit puffy. "Never mind, no need to. It's normal that he can't accept it. He's

grown up now and has to face many things on his own."

Phoebe thought, 'Once doubt arises, no matter what Ophelia does, Scott will not trust her anymore.

She wouldn't have to wait much longer to act. Soon, she'd be able to completely reclaim what was rightfully

hers.

Scott was running down the street, not even sure who he could trust. After a while, he felt his phone vibrating

intensely in his pocket. The screen displayed: [Ophelia.]

He stared at the screen for a long time, and his mind automatically started conjuring a lot of images.

He thought, 'Is any of this real?"

The screen went dark, but it soon lit up again. Scott felt like his Head was about to explode, yet he couldn't

remember anything. After another moment, he finally answered the call, "lllo..." Ophelia asked, "Scott, I'm at the

school gate. Where are you?"

Hearing Ophelia's voice, Scott's heart finally calmed down a bit. -I'm with my classmates outside. I'll be home

soon, so you don't need to worry about me."

"Where are you? I'll cpick you up." Ophelia insisted, concerned.

But when these words of concern reached Scott's ears, they seemed different.

He thought, 'Why won't she letgo anywhere? Is she just afraidmay find out struth? But then why

does she want to keepnearby?"

"No need, I'll be back soon." Before Ophelia could say anything more, Scott hung up the phone.
