Chapter 242 My Half–Sister
Ronald had done his homework on Tracy, so he knew exactly what kind of person she had
been.
Just how much had she gone through to become the way she was now?
Tracy could feel Ronald’s intense gaze on her, but she did not look back. Her eyes stayed locked on Tom’s face, which was twisted in pain.
“I’ll ask one more time,” she said slowly. “Do you have dirt on Erin?”
As she spoke, she slowly twisted the knife lodged in Tom’s leg. Her movements were so controlled and graceful that it looked more like she was carving a sculpture than doing something bloody and cruel.
Her calm voice in Tom’s ears felt like a devil whispering.
“Ah! Okay! Okay! I’ll talk!”
Cold sweat was dripping down Tom’s face as he screamed and begged. The mockery in his eyes had completely vanished, and it was now replaced by fear.
He could tell she really wanted to kill him.
She’s insane! She’s a total psycho!
Tracy stopped twisting the knife but did not pull it out. Her eyes said, “If your answer doesn’t satisfy me, I’ll keep going.”
Reading her expression, Tom did not dare hold anything back. “I know Erin’s biggest secret— she’s not even the Jackmans‘ real daughter!”
Tracy had imagined countless possible secrets about Erin, but she had not expected this.
Without hesitation, she twisted the knife again. Tom’s whole body jerked, his screams echoing
in the basement.
“You’re telling me,” she said sharply, “that when Erin suddenly showed up, the Jackmans- every single one of them–went to four or five different agencies for DNA tests, and I’m supposed to believe you?”
With the Jackmans‘ status, no one could just show up with a random DNA report and be accepted. The tests were strict, thorough, and done in secret.

Back then, even Tracy had been dragged through several DNA tests before it was confirmed she was not blood–related to the Jackmans, while Erin was proven to be their real daughter.
“Ah! I’m not lying! I swear I’m not lying!”
Tom squirmed in pain, but his hands and feet were tied tight, and the chair was bolted to the floor. So, struggling was pointless.
“I don’t know how she pulled it off,” he blurted out, “but Erin is not the Jackmans‘ blood. She’s my half–sister–same mom, different dad!
“Years ago, my mom remarried a man with the surname Yarwood. Not long after, she gave birth to Erin. She was born at home because we couldn’t afford a hospital. I was in the next room, so there’s no way there was some hospital baby mix–up.
“I’ve been using that truth to blackmail her.for money all these years. But that’s all! I never helped her hurt you. I swear I’m innocent!”
Tracy studied every twitch and flinch on his face.
He was terrified, desperate to spill everything just to save himself. He did not seem like he was lying.
However, the DNA results were real. So if Tom was telling the truth, how had Erin changed every single test result?
Back then, the Jackmans had been extra careful to avoid tampering. Each person secretly went to different labs and got rushed results.
Even the family members themselves did not know which agencies the others had used.
Whatever Erin was hiding, it was seriously twisted.
Seeing there was nothing more to squeeze out of Tom, Tracy finally stopped.
When she stepped out of the basement, the sunlight was so bright she could not open right away.

Once she adjusted, she stared at the sky for a moment, dazed,
After a long silence, she murmured, “It’s so cold.”
She did not even know if she was talking about the basement or something else.
The next moment, a cool hand wrapped around hers–blood and all–like it was pulling her

Tracy turned her head and saw Ronald, who had been silent the whole time, holding her hand. His smile was just as bright and carefree as always.
She tilted her head, looking genuinely confused. “You’re not scared of me?”
The way she had acted just now… Even she would have been scared if she had seen herself for the first time.
However, Ronald did not even blink. His smile did not waver. “Would you ever treat me like that?”
Tracy froze for a second, then instantly got what he meant.
No, she would never do that to him.
So, of course, he was not afraid.
She smiled faintly and dropped the topic. The heavy feeling hanging over her earlier had noticeably lifted.
Looking down at the lock of hair in her hand, her expression turned thoughtful.
It was Tom’s hair.
If what he had said was true, then he and Erin were definitely related by blood.
Now the real problem was figuring out how to get Erin’s DNA without her having the slightest clue.
