Burn Those Who Burned Me novel Chapter 196

My voice fell flat as I stared at Sharon. She really was trying to play the grieving mother.

“Tell me something… ‘mother‘. Do they know the truth?”

Sharon squinted her eyes at me. Her face contorting to an ugly expression.

“What truth? I have no idea what nonsense you’re trying to spew!”

Calvin suddenly spoke up again.

“Graceland! Stop this! Your mother was devasted the night you were taken from us! How could you be so cruel!”

Hahahah!!!!

I began to laugh hysterically. He really didn’t know the truth. Growing frustrated, Calvin began to frantically yell.

“What’s so funny! You think your mother’s pain is funny!”

I wiped the laugh tears from eyes, my face going back to stoic; I sneered at Calvin’s question.

“Actually, I find it funny she was so ‘torn up….especially considering…she’s the reason I was taken in the first place. Or did you not know?”

Calvin’s face twisted in a confused expression.

“What are you saying?”

Sigh. “I’m saying your precious wife ordered your henchman to murder me in order to cover up an affair.”

GASPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The crowd began to erupted as my words filled the room like a hollow hole.

“THAT’S A LIE!!!!!!!!”

Sharon yelled out frantically as Noah held her steady. The color was now completely gone from her

face.

“Graceland! Stop it!!! Why would you say such a cruel thing about mother!!!”

Noah yelled.

“You’ve really gone too far Graceland.”

Olivia sobbed as Jonathan held her in his arms.

As the crowd gossiped in shock, some even pulled out their phones to record this cynical mess.

“I’m not the one who’s been lying. Your precious mother has been lying for over 20 years.”

Calvin looked over at Sharon, her face was ghostly white.

“Sharon…what is she talking about? Why would she say something like that? It’s not true…right?”

Tears began to fall down Sharon’s face as she shook her head. Calvin became furious. He walked up and grabbed Sharon by the shoulders; shaking her frantically.

“WHO WAS IT!!! Who was the son–of–a–bitch you betrayed me for!!! Tell me!!!”

Sharon continued to cry but said nothing.

“Benard Thorton.”

Calvin looked at Sharon with a despaired expression. I cared nothing about his hurt feelings.

He then turned to me slowly; his face filled with rage. His voice was shaking.

“B–Benard Thor….that couldn’t be true. He’s always been loyal.”

I stared at Calvin as he stood in denial. After looking back at Sharon, he began to yell again.

“You…you bitch!!! You’ve been having an affair with Benard!!! This whole time!!!”

Sharon ran towards Calvin; her voice filled with pain as she sobbed. Frantically grabbing his hands, she tried to explain.

“Calvin…honey…let me explain-”

“Explain!!! EXPLAIN!!!! You’ve had his bastard child in our house for the past seven years-”

“I’m not a bastard child.”

Calvin turned towards me. His face bloodshot red.

“What do you mean? You just said-”

🙂))

“I said she ordered my execution to HIDE her affair. She wasn’t sure whose child I was; but she didn’t want to take any chances in the event your mother ordered a paternity test. You know…me being a girl

and all.”

Calvin’s brows lowered, relief on his face.

“So…so you are my daughter?”

“Biologically. Yes.”

I answered flatly. I could see the relief fill Calvin’s eyes. Suddenly, Brian scoffed.

“So you put us through all of this for nothing! You tried to destroy mother! You wretched….even if you share our blood! You’ll never be a Rochester!!!”

I laughed hysterically at the irony. With a sardonic smile, I sneered at Brian.

“OUR blood? ‘Our‘….oh Brian…Didn’t you know?”

Brain’s face began to pale.

“Know what? What are you running your mouth about now!”

I chuckled.

“There’s a reason why your mother was so convinced I was Thorton’s child.”

Sharon ran forward.

“Graceland!!! Stop it!!!”

Brian stared at me with a harden gaze, but I wasn’t backing down. I looked past Sharon and straight

at Brian.
