Chapter 251 Afraid of causing extra trouble, Chloe said angrily to Addyson, âIt has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and leave.â Addysonâs eyes turned red as she sobbed and grabbed Chloeâs hand.
âTracy, you canât do this.
You are hurting my heart.â She was afraid that Tracy couldnât survive the surgery.
Addyson grabbed Jimmy and knelt down in front of Brandon and Savanna.
She kept knocking on the ground and blood oozed from her forehead.
She was angry out of anxiety and panic.
She trembled and stuttered, âShelton, Tracy is not your sister.
Sheâs my long-lost daughter.â
Tracy panicked.
Bang Addyson turned around and saw Tracy fall off the bed.
She quickly rushed over and held Tracy up.
But Tracy rejected her help.
Tracy was so agitated that her face turned red.
She gritted her teeth and said, âMom, if you dare to tell the truth, Iâd rather die.â
Tracyâs threat worked.
Addyson was afraid.
She hugged Tracy tightly and trembled like a sieve as tears rolled down her face.
Brandonâs face was full of suspicion as he gradually comprehended Tracy and Addysonâs words.
After a moment, he looked at Tracy with cold eyes.
âWhatâs going on? Tracy, I want to hear the truth.â Tracy didnât allow Addyson to speak, but Addyson couldnât hold back her feelings anymore.
She asked Brandon, âDid you think it was a coincidence that Tracy became Chloe? Do you think I made Tracy a substitute for my lost daughter?â Seeing Brandonâs pale lips, Addyson cried and said, âItâs not like what you think.
When Chloe committed suicide by cutting her neck, I was heartbroken.
That was why Jimmy brought people to New York to search for my other daughter, Chloeâs older sister.
Jimmy happened to witness Tracyâs car accident.
He pitied Tracy and saved her.
Later, he found out that Tracy was our long-lost daughter Joanna.
She is not your sister at all.
We did a DNA test and the blood relation between us is strong.
Tracy is our daughter, a member of the Gilbert family.â Addysonâs voice became hoarse from crying.
Her tears almost dried up, but she still couldnât calm down.
âYouâre going to take away our precious daughter.
Do you think Jimmy and I will agree?â Brandon was more than shocked.
His heart was filled with complicated feelings.
Brandon seemed to fail to clear his thoughts.
Brandon had treated Tracy as his own sister since a young age.
Later, Brandon found out that he and Tracy were twins of the Young family.
Brandon thought Tracy was even more special.
But nowâ¦
Brandon put his slender fingers through his dense hair.
He raised his head, took a deep breath, and looked at Jimmy with questioning eyes.
Jimmy kept silent, somehow.admitting Addysonâs words.
Addyson might be a madwoman who had gone crazy, but Jimmy was clear-headed.
Brandonâs heart sank like a broken cliff.
Tracyâs eyes were fixed on Brandon.
Seeing him loosen his tie and untie his sleeves, Tracy knew that Brandon couldnât accept this fact.
Tracy was more afraid that the situation would change.
Therefore, she said harshly and determinedly, âMom, if you donât save Mandel, I will end my life with a knife.â
Addysonâs body trembled even more.
She looked at Tracy in disbelief.
Seeing Tracyâs determined face, Addyson was afraid she would do something stupid.
She helped Tracy up and walked to the bed.
After Tracy laid down, Addyson tried her best to control her rage.
She said in a low voice, âDonât be impulsive.
Calm down, Tracy.
Youâre sick after allâ¦â Tracy said, âI have made up my mind.
Donât say anything more.â Addyson didnât dare to say anything else.
She could only sit on the bed and tightly grab Tracyâs hand.
Jimmy glared at Brandon and left the ward.
At this time, both Brandon and Savanna had complicated feelings.
Addyson loudly asked them to leave.
âI have something to say to my daughter.
Please leave.â
Savanna was the first to leave.
She saw Jimmy leaning against the wall of the corridor and smoking.
It seemed that he was also agitated.
Just as Savanna walked downstairs, she turned around and saw Brandon following behind her.
Savanna walked out of the door and started at the bustling traffic in front of her.
She smelled the lingering fragrance of pine trees and said lightly, âBrandon, your family relationship is messy.â
Her words were more or less filled with some ridicule.
Brandon lowered his head.
With a click, he opened the lighter and lit up the cigarette.
He took a deep breath and puffed out the smoke.
Only then did Brandon feel that his chest was not so stuffy.
âDo you believe it?â He asked Savanna hoarsely.
Savanna said, âWhy not? How could Addyson joke about this kind of thing? Moreover, Addyson has made it so clear that Chloe committed suicide before and she doesnât want it to happen again.
Jimmy ran to New York to find his lost daughter and tried to cure Tracy.
Iâve been wondering all along why Jimmy did everything he could to save Tracy and spent a lot of money on her plastic surgery conducted by foreign experts to make her look like Chloe.
Now, everything has an explanation.â
Brandonâs eyes darkened.
âI still find it hard to believe.
Itâs too dramatic.â To confirm Addysonâs words, Brandon drove back to the Youngâs home.
Lorena was watering the flowers with a kettle when she saw Brandon gradually approaching her from the corner of her eyes.
She lowered her eyebrows slightly.
âYouâre back?â
Brandon stood behind Lorena.
âGrandma, I want to ask you something.â âSay it,â said Lorena.
âYou know Tracy?â âWhich Tracy?â Lorena put down the kettle.
The servant brought a basin of clean water.
She put her delicate hands into the basin.
After washing her hands, she took the towel handed by the servant to wipe them.
Then she began to light the scented candle.
Lorena would light the scented candle in the living room every day.
Lorena had been immersed in the business world for many years and had too many enemies.
Lorena was afraid of harm from others, not to mention she had a strong sense of security.
Brandon touched his teeth with the tip of his tongue and said faintly, âWhen you asked someone to find me, you didnât know that I had a younger sister, right? Her name is Tracy.
The profile in the orphanage said I had a younger twin sister.
Giselle adopted us together.
Later, Tracy somehow passed away.
So, I have never said this to you before.â He didnât want to break Lorenaâs heart.
Lorena had experienced too many joys and sorrows in her life.
When the candle was lit, Lorena looked at him with a deep gaze.
âYour father and mother only gave birth to one child and thatâs you.
Before they could give birth to another, they had a car accident.
I was also harmed by a bad man and almost lost my life in that fire.
When I woke up, the Youngâs
house became ruins.
I thought you were dead in that fire.
So, all these years, I have been looking for you with despair.â
Lorenaâs memory seemed to be stuck in that earth-shattering fire.
After a long while, she came to her senses and said, âAs for the file in the orphanage, I donât know who forged it.â Brandonâs heart sank.
Tracy was not his sister but Joanna.
Was that really so? It turned out that he had been deceived by the hospital.
The appraisal was fake, but everything seemed flawless.
Brandon suddenly felt that someone was secretly controlling everything.
