Janet, lying on the ground, burst into manic laughter, “Alright, alright! Let my child accompany me in the grave!”
Parker suddenly quieted, staring dazedly at Michelle, staggering towards her with an unsteady gait, “Honey…”
Michelle had no time to concern herself with
these lunatics. Determined to stick by
Kenneth’s side through thick and thin, she quickly rushed into his arms, her hands stained with blood.
“Come with me to the hospital for post- exposure prophylaxis! Trust me, we’ll be fine!” Michelle pulled Kenneth along, running as fast as she ever had in her life. They raced to

the hospital, where she immediately received the treatment.
They stayed in the hospital for three days and nights under observation before being released, both of them unharmed.
On the day they were discharged, they embraced each other tightly, as if after a narrow escape and both understood the value of cherishing life even more.
Michelle had always been protective,
tolerating Janet’s endless mistreatment of her, but she could not tolerate the harm that was inflicted upon the people she loved.
Michelle sent the DNA test results of Janet and Smith couple to the Smith Family. Ever since the day Janet had been found, Michelle had suspected something was off.

How could someone who was once allergic to
peanut not have the same reaction after being lost for ten years?
She secretly arranged to collect Janet’s blood and hair samples and sent them to the hospital for a paternity test. The result confirmed her suspicion, Janet was not the Smith Family’s biological daughter.
The real Janet had been kidnapped by human traffickers and sold in Southeast Asia. When the police rescued her, all that remained was a skeleton. The current Janet was nothing but a survivor from Southeast Asia who had been
freed at that time.
Carrying the rightful Janet’s token, fake Janet went to the Smith Family to claim her identity. By sheer coincidence, Janet became

the Smith Family’s most cherished one,
turning into their beloved young lady of the house.
Michelle didn’t only send the paternity test report to the Smith Family, she also included the ashes of the real Janet.
In the past, she had softened and withheld the truth about Janet’s death out of gratitude for the ten years the Smith Family had raised her. Instead of revealing the truth to them, she had gone to the police station alone to claim the ashes.
She hadn’t exposed the current Janet, simply to allow Smith couple to hold on to a sliver of hope. Michelle owed them nothing. On the other hand, they owed her too much.
Upon receiving the truth, Smith couple were

enraged. In a frenzy, they went to the hospital
that night and had Janet’s expensive medical equipment removed.
Adele, still filled with anger, stormed into Janet’s room with Samuel. She smashed everything within reach at Janet.
“You shameless slut! You knew my real daughter was dead, but you still came to impersonate her! You deserve a terrible death!” Adele’s curses echoed throughout the building, causing numerous patients to come out and stare in shock.
Janet had nowhere to retreat. She was defenseless against the relentless blows, her body covered in bruises, becoming more and more battered.
But her mouth was full of curses, “You old

hag! You couldn’t even recognize your own biological daughter and now you blame me?”
“Do you think you’re some kind of saint? Didn’t you push Michelle out of your life to favor an imposter? Now you want to blame everything on me, do you think that will cleanse your sins?” Janet spat in Adele’s face.
Enraged, Adele was overcome with fear, worried that Janet’s disease would infect her, so she quickly pulled Samuel away and rushed to find the doctor.
Janet stared at her deflated belly, her mind erratic and unhinged.
