You, Me and Our Genius Twins

Chapter 69 The Intelligent and Gorgeous Woman

Crystal leaned against Michael’s chest as she shut her eyes and spoke to herself. Calm down. Take a deep breath. Another one. Deep breaths… Finally, she felt a little better—her heart wasn’t pounding as hard as before. She opened her eyes before turning to look at Michael. “Tell me, Michael—who are Angie’s parents?” she asked in a calm voice.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

All of them—Michael and his sons—who knew the truth could feel their hearts in their throats. Michael looked like he was about to say something, but he stopped himself at the very last moment. Crystal looked directly into his eyes. “Angie… is Cameron’s daughter, isn’t she?” Although she spoke at a slow pace, her voice was extremely shaky.

“What nonsense are you saying, Mom?” Angie screamed. “What got into you? How could you say such things? How could I be Cameron’s daughter? You… Are you mad, Mom?” If Angie had felt blown away by the fact that she wasn’t a child of the Wendel Family, then she felt like she had completely exploded upon hearing that she was Cameron’s daughter. Angie, out of all people, knew best why Madeline had suffered throughout the years. It was because Madeline was supposedly Cameron’s biological daughter!

Cameron is the illegitimate daughter of the Taylor Family, and she’s one of the culprits who caused my grandmother’s death, Angie thought. Naturally, everyone would hate her daughter since they all hated her. That’s why everyone in the Taylor Family treated Madeline so horribly. If Dan hadn’t been a rebel who insisted on going against my uncle’s words and bringing Madeline home, Madeline would have died on the streets.

Madeline didn’t do anything wrong—she only went through all of that abuse and maltreatment because she’s Cameron’s daughter. Just the fact that she’s Cameron’s daughter is already a crime in the family. But now, Mom’s claiming that I’m Cameron’s daughter! No. This can’t be possible. I’m Mom and Dad’s biological daughter, and I have the blood of the grand and elegant Wendel and Taylor families.

How could I be Cameron’s daughter? I’m not. I can’t be! Angie thought.

Crystal didn’t seem to notice Angie’s screams as she continued to look at her husband. “Answer me, Michael. Is Angie Cameron’s daughter?’

Michael’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, but he remained silent for a long while. Once he gave Crystal his answer, he would be ruining his daughter’s future. He had spent more than 20 years caring for and nurturing Angie—his daughter was like a precious gem to him! How… am I supposed to be okay with this?

“She is, isn’t she?” Crystal never once took her eyes off of him. “You said that Madeline is our daughter and that you have a DNA test report to prove it. So, it’s confirmed that Madeline’s our daughter… Angie isn’t my biological daughter, yet she looks similar to me… Why would she look similar to me? Because Cameron and I share the same father! Cameron and I look rather similar to each other, too. She’s Cameron’s daughter, and she looks like Cameron, which explains why she looks like me…”

“No! That’s not right! That can’t be true!” Angie cried out loud as she shook her head frantically. “Stop talking, Mom. That’s not true. I’m your daughter. I’m Daddy’s little girl. I’m really your child!”

But Crystal didn’t look at Angie at all. Instead, she continued to stare at Michael. “Back when I was expected to give birth, I went to the hospital, and I recall Cameron checking in to the same hospital during that same period. I thought she was just there to annoy me and make me mad, but now… I see…”

Crystal finally shifted her gaze to Angie. “Now that I think about it, Cameron had arranged for her and me to share the same ward. She gave birth on the same day I did. All of that wasn’t to annoy me or get me mad after all… Her main intention was to switch her daughter for mine…”

“No… That’s not true, Mom. That can’t be true…” Angie bent down as she sobbed helplessly.

This can’t be real. None of this is real. If this is real, then my life is ruined. I thought it was bad enough that I’m not a biological child of the Wendels. I can’t believe the bad part was revealed at the very end. I can’t believe I’m Cameron’s daughter! I’m the one who often cursed Cameron’s daughter for being cheap, rude, and shameless… And now, I’m that exact person I used to curse at! No. I can’t believe it. This must be one of Madeline’s evil schemes.

I have to be my parents’ child. All of this is just a lie! Angie was still sobbing as she ran toward Michael and Crystal. “It’s not what it seems to be, Mom and Dad! This can’t be true. You guys have been fooled by Madeline. I’m your daughter. This is all part of Madeline’s evil plan. She’s fooling you guys! Don’t trust her. Don’t!”

Jonathan turned to Angie with a complicated gaze in his eyes. “I watched as the DNA test was done, Angie. There can’t be a mistake with the results. Madeline’s really Mom and Dad’s daughter.”

“No! You’ve been fooled by her too, Jonathan!” Angie cried while shaking her head. “She’s a liar, and she lied to all of you. I’m your sister, Jonathan. Don’t let her fool you! Madeline…” Angie turned to Madeline before charging over to her. Cedric had been holding onto Angie, but she pushed him aside. “You’re so evil!” Angie shouted at Madeline. “How could you try to take my parents away from me? I want to kill you. I want to kill you…”

But before Angie could get close to Madeline, Emory came in between both girls before he sent a kick directly into Angie’s stomach. Angie stumbled backward upon being kicked, and she soon fell onto her bottom with a loud smack as she hit the ground.

“How dare you, Madeline?” Cedric was furious.

Sebastian smirked. “Why are you shouting at my wife when it was my bodyguard who was protecting her, Cedric? Are you just picking on my wife because you think she’s an easier target?”

Cedric grew even more furious. “Do you think I’m afraid of you, Sebastian?!”

“No. I never thought so. The stupidest people are the ones who have the least fear, anyway! I don’t think you’re afraid of anything!” Sebastian chuckled.

“You…” Cedric’s face turned into the color of a tomato as he felt his blood boiling.

“That’s enough, Cedric.” Jonathan walked over and pushed his brother behind his back. “You’re not allowed to speak again without asking for Dad’s or my permission!”

“But Jonathan…” Cedric was displeased.

“I told you to shut up!” Jonathan frowned.

Cedric was extremely respectful toward his brother. Even though he felt like he was about to erupt with anger, he decided to keep his mouth shut. Meanwhile, Crystal patted her chest as her face turned pale. Michael got worried upon seeing this, so he quickly ordered the family doctors to come over and check on her.

Both of the family doctors couldn’t do much apart from providing Crystal with pills that could prevent a heart attack. Then, they suggested for Crystal to calm down. She wasn’t supposed to get too emotional.

Crystal tried her best to regulate her emotions and focused on one thought in her mind. I have to know the truth! I can’t collapse!

After taking her medication, Michael helped her over to a couch in the hall. Sebastian and the rest of them were also invited into the hall. Once Crystal felt a little better, she quickly turned to her husband. “Can you answer my question now, Michael? Angie is Cameron’s daughter, right?”
