Everyone was surprised by Andy's words.

They knew what he meant.

Toby was not his son but Ella's child with another man.

No one had expected this revelation.

Pairs of inquisitive eyes fell on Ella, which frightened her and made her stagger a few steps back.

The butler was anxious and was about to catch her, but as soon as he raised his head, Andy glared at him and he stepped back.

The butler trembled in fear.

"How dare you slander me?" Ella stood her ground, her face pale. Her voice was so shrill that it hurt Andy's ears.

Andy looked at her coldly and said, "After you gave birth to Evelyn, I went to the hospital to have myself checked. I was told that I could no longer father another child. When Evelyn was four years old, you got pregnant. At that time, I doubted that the child was mine, so I secretly took a sample of Toby's DNA and got a paternity test. It came back negative. He's not mine at all.

I kept that information to myself all these years because I felt sorry for you. I chose to endure you and let Toby grow up in the Song family. I even turned a blind eye to you having affair with the butler.

You want to ruin me? How rid

d eyes.

"Kristina loved you the most when she was alive. Can you stay with her for a little longer? I have to go."

Then, Howard left with Vivian on his heels. Vivian thought about everything she just heard while holding on tightly to her handbag.

She knew that Howard only valued Noah, and all the benefits would not fall on her.

Vivian had never hated Howard and Noah so much before.

A shrewd look flashed through her eyes

as she began to think of ways to get all the assets of the Ye Group.

The Song family members had also left except for Evelyn who just stood there blankly with Ford by her side.

Noah stood there like a tree.

The three of them stood by the lake for a long time, but the wind could not blow away the haze in their heads and the sadness in their hearts.

They stood there for a whole day.

When night fell, Ford left with Evelyn. Before leaving, he said to Noah, "I have a document about M.C. that Mr. Song wanted you to have. Contact me when you're ready to get it."

"What's M.C.?" Noah was confused.

"When the time comes, you will know."

Since Ford did not give a direct answer, Noah did not take him seriously.
