Chapter 393 Her World Upturned
"You..." The person was agitated. "Serenity! Do you know how much your mother had suffered when she was pregnant with you and gave birth to you? It's fine when you didn't know the truth, but now that you do, you're still obstinate.”
“Sh*t up!” Serenity went up to the computer and glared at the person. "Everything thus far comes from you singularly! You’re telling me now that I can’t trust the family that I've spent over 20 years with, and I should believe you, a stranger who doesn’t even dare show your face?”
"I'm a stranger? I'm your only family in this world. Don't think you're actually a Wright just because your family name is Wright." The person huffed. "I'm your biological grandfather!"
Her grandfather?
Serenity gritted her teeth. "You're making it up! My mother was an orphan. I don't have any grandparents!”
"No, you do.” The person took several deep breaths to calm down. "Your mother was abducted when she was a small child. Not long after that, your grandmother passed away from the sorrow, but I had never given up searching for your mother. It was unfortunate that when I found her, it was too late. She was already pregnant and chased away by George Wright!" 2
Serenity was quick to catch on. "So when you said that my mother met someone helpful when she was chased away, you mean you were that someone? You're saying it's someone helpful just now, and you’re saying you're my grandfather now. Are you even thinking straight?” 1
The video had a low resolution, but Serenity could feel the person quiver slightly.
The person rubbed between the brows tiredly. "I didn't want to tell you these, but you remained unbelieving. I can only tell you everything. Serenity, I'm your grandpa. I won't lie to you."
"Haha, you’re my grandpa just because you say you are one?” Serenity chuckled coldly.
Once she finished, a door in the room was opened, and an elderly walked out. Looking over subconsciously, Serenity widened her eyes. "Pawpaw Clark! Why are you captured too!"
She turned back to the screen. "I'm warning you, let go of-"
There was no one there anymore.
Serenity alternated her gaze between the screen and Pawpaw Clark before shock colored her face.
Her voice grew shaky. “Pawpaw Clark, you... you..."
A terrifying guess flashed in her mind, but Serenity refused to believe it.
"Yes." Clark nodded directly. "Serenity, I'm your grandpa. I'm your biological grandfather."
"That's impossible, that's impossible." With her strength suddenly sucked out of her legs, Serenity fell t o the floor abruptly.
'Could it be... The culprit who has been targeting the Wrights all this while... It was... Pawpaw Clark?'
"Nothing's impossible." Clark's gaze at Serenity was sympathetic but also aloof. He took out a report calmly and placed it in front of her.
"This is our DNA test report. You can have a look."
"No!" Serenity slapped the report away like it stung. When the document fell on the floor, it flipped to the last page, and it was written clearly-'Both parties are confirmed to be directly related within three generations.'
"Pawpaw Clark! Tell me, were you behind Oliver being caught, the Wrights being targeted, and Susie being kidnapped?” Serenity looked at Clark shakily.
She anticipated his answer but was also scared of hearing it. All this time, the Wrights were her family, s o was Pawpaw Clark. She did not understand why everything had changed so abruptly.
"It's me." Clark nodded directly at Serenity. "I've planned all of them! From the start, Joseph Shaw's been working for me. His initial goal was to take over Lanyard, but I didn't expect Susan Shelby to be Rosalie
Wright. With everything that followed, Lanyard got related to the Wrights. Hah, it's better this way, though. I can erase both threats together."
"You... why are you doing this?" Serenity was confused. Why had the warm and friendly grandfather in her memory come to be someone like this?
"Why?" Clark sneered, flaring up again. "Faye got abducted at a young age. The person I'm the most indebted to and feel the most regret for is her, my daughter! When I finally found her and before I could bask in the joy of the reunion, your mother died during her labor! Before her death, she told me everything. The one who pushed her to that stage was George Wright. Hah, that b*stard of a man. Anthony and I were good friends, and I took care of George like a potential junior he was, but he took my daughter's life. How do you suppose I’d be okay with it?"
As Clark spoke, he began to look a little crazed.
Serenity wanted to speak, but there was no chance of her butting in.
"My poor daughter, she died just like that. And the hypocritical Wrights continued to receive respect. I could never allow it! Anthony trusted me, so it only took a little effort on my part to set him up. I got him beaten to death easily." Clark's gaze turned unsettling as he talked.
The bewilderment and disbelief grew in Serenity’s gaze.
Anthony was George's father and her grandfather. He had died because of Clark's machination too...
"You... How could you kill grandpa? Grandpa's like your brother," Serenity could not help questioning in rage. "And the rest of our family. All of us trusted you. They took you in, sympathizing that you have no one with you. You... Don't you feel the least bit of guilt?" NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
"Hah, my brother! Indulging his son and causing my daughter's death, what kind of brother is he!" Clark scoffed. "Since Anthony’s so bad at teaching his son, his death was deserved! George's the culprit. Haha, taking pity on me and taking me in? Why would I be without my family? If he didn't cause Faye’s death, would I be alone? Serenity, you're my granddaughter. Listen to me. We'll work together and kill all the Wrights. George, Luna, Oliver, Anna, all of them deserve death."
"You-You’re crazy!" Serenity felt that her world was upturned in an instant.
