Chapter 200 Trick
Chapter 200 Trick
Keira listened to the slander from the journalists and Poppy with merely a bitter smile, and her head bowed low.
She knew that if she didn't relent today, such defamation would follow her for life, and she had braced herself mentally for it.
Therefore, she didn't retort.
She even planned to publicly sever ties with Poppy! Even if such an act would subject her to the scorn and vilification of thousands!
But she never expected Holly to make such a statement.
Keira was shocked as she looked toward Holly, her first reaction one of disbelief. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
After all, the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" had already played out twice in her case.
She had thought the same thing on both those occasions, so for the third time, she found it hard to believe.
Her mouth opened as if to tell Holly not to joke about such things...
But before the words could come out, she suddenly realized something was amiss.
Holly came here to reveal the secret that Connor had been hiding, so was this that secret?!
Keira was once again dumbstruck.
How could this be...
She wasn't Taylor's daughter, and if she were Mrs. Olsen's daughter, wouldn't that mean Mrs. Olsen had been unfaithful to her marriage?
No, Mrs. Olsen was definitely not that kind of person.
There must be some misunderstanding.
But it didn't matter anymore. None of that was important. What mattered was... Jodie South was her mother...
Mother...
For the first time, this word held warmth for her!!
Keira couldn't help trembling...
She was so overwhelmed with emotion that she found it hard to speak.
When Holly spoke out, both Isla and Poppy were startled momentarily before Poppy shouted furiously, "What nonsense are you spouting? Don't talk rubbish here! How could Keira possibly be Mrs. Olsen's daughter when I gave birth to her? Don't I know my own daughter?"
At that moment, Isla realized in full that Connor had sold her out!
This secret must have come from Connor!!
Her complexion turned pale as she stared intently at Holly.
Jake, who was supporting her, frowned and sneered. "Holly, I thought you were a good cop, but I didn't expect you to say something so preposterous. You have truly betrayed the trust we place in our police officers!"
He steadied Isla. "Keira is the Olsen family's illegitimate daughter, and Isla is the rightful heiress! It was because of this that I gave up on Keira back then. Stop spouting nonsense! Do you think we would believe you just because you say so?!"
The journalists around them had already closed their mouths.
The continual twists in today's drama had left them overwhelmed.
They all picked up their cameras and started filming, their intuition telling them that a huge scoop was unfolding!!
Seeing everyone's doubts, Holly sneered. "Of course, I have evidence when I make such claims!"
She picked up her phone again and opened the WhatsApp chat interface.
There, just one minute ago, a colleague sent her the DNA report of Keira and Mrs. Olsen!
It was something she had her colleague rush to do after hearing the full story from Connor.
Because Keira had been detained before, the local police had her DNA information in their database.
Mrs. Olsen had been chronically ill for years, suspecting it was a genetic chronic disease, she had long since entered her medical information into the medical database.
The police extracted Mrs. Olsen's DNA information from the medical database and made a direct comparison!
It only took half an hour, and the results were out!
Holly always made decisions resolutely. She had met Keira before and understood the significance of this matter to her, which was why she didn't call her immediately after Connor revealed the truth.
She was also wary that this might be a prank by Connor so it wasn't until she received the DNA test report, confirming the truth of Connor's words, that she made the truth public!
Looking at that DNA report, everyone was stunned.
Poppy jumped up and down in agitation. "Impossible! This can't be true! It must be another forgery by you!"
Holly sneered. "The mark on it is from our police station. Since I dare to show it to the reporters, I'm not afraid of it being verified! Poppy, I came here today to inform you that someone has accused you of swapping your own daughter with another child at birth to give her a better life. You are now suspected of child trafficking, and I need to take you back to the station for questioning!"
Having said that, she pulled out an arrest warrant from her pocket and showed it to everyone!
Poppy looked at these and was momentarily dazed. She collapsed to the ground. "No, it can't be, how could you know... It's impossible..."
Her reaction had already told everyone the answer.
The reported started talking.
"My God, why was this Poppy so cruel to her own daughter just now? Turns out Keira isn't even her daughter!"
"Just a moment ago, they claimed Mrs. Horton was an illegitimate daughter and thus poorly brought up. As it turns out, the daughter-in-law of the first branch of the family is the real illegitimate daughter?"
"She miscarried her baby and blamed Mrs. Horton... Her nature is that of a petty and vile person! Even if she was raised as the legitimate daughter, what does it matter? Some people's genes just carry bad seeds!"
Seeing this, Jake realized what was happening. He suddenly pulled his hand away from Isla and glared at her. "You're the illegitimate daughter?!"
He felt as though he had been slapped in the face!!
Isla, standing before him, became a complete stranger in his eyes.
Isla said, " Jake, I... I don't know what's going on. Believe me... Even if Poppy swapped the children, I didn't know the truth. Jake, I'm innocent..."
Hearing this, Poppy quickly looked at Isla. "Right, right, Isla knew nothing about this/ I never told her the truth! She's innocent; this was all my doing!!"
All eyes turned to Isla once again.
But Holly then turned her gaze to Isla. "Isla, Connor has confessed everything. He said you also knew about this and that he killed his father under your instigation! What do you have to say for yourself?"
...
Meanwhile.
In the corridor, Uncle Olsen's hand, which was originally poised to fire his gun, stopped at the trigger after hearing Holly's announcement.
He frowned and couldn't believe his ears.
Lewis also heard this, and he suddenly relaxed with relief.
This was Oceanion, Crera, and he didn't want to have a shootout with Uncle Olsen here; the aftermath would be too troublesome...
But... Keira was Mrs. Olsen's daughter?
Although he had suspected as much, Lewis still felt a sense of joy for Keira!
He looked at Uncle Olsen with a taunt. "Uncle Olsen, are you still going to protect Isla now?"
Uncle Olsen clenched his fists, his face suddenly shadowed with a trace of malice.
He bypassed Lewis and strode into the hallway, his voice filled with angry menace. "How dare they play Miss South like this? I'll kill that mother and daughter!!"
