Chapter 256
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
Carl barely managed to calm himself down. âMiss Smith, please donât frighten me.â
Isabella let out a cold laugh. âI was about to offer you a way out, but since youâre acting like this, I see no need to say more.â
Isabella was about to hang up the phone.
In a panic, Carl quickly said, âWait! Miss Smith, I believe you! If Susanâs true identity is discovered by the Nicholas family, it would be the end of us all. Please, I beg you, help me.â
If only he had known that the woman in the hospital years ago was the queen of Tonico, he would never have done such a thing, But who could have imagined that a queen would give birth in a small hospital like that!
At first, they didnât know the womanâs identity.
But not long after they arrived in Anaville, the royal family of Tonico started a massive campaign to find their missing daughter.
The queen herself went public, even naming the hospital where she gave birth.
Thatâs when Carl and Jane realized the child they had stolen was the princess of Tonico.
Thankfully, Carl had already managed to alter the hospital records. Otherwise, they would have been exposed right then.
At that time, they were not found.
They remained undiscovered over the years, but the fear never left them..
The more they feared, the worse they treated Susan.
And now, the Nicholas family was close to finding Susan?
Carl couldnât help but panic.

SH Isabella snorted, then said slowly, âFirst, if the Nicholas family finds you first, youâll always look suspicious, no matter what you say. You should take the initiative and go to them!â
Carl was startled. âBut our relationship with Susan isnât good. If Susan gains another powerful ally, weâre finished either way.â
Isabella raised an eyebrow. âWho said the one gaining an ally would be Susan?â
âButâ¦â Carl wanted to say something.
Isabella cut him off. âDonât you have another daughter?â
âYou mean Yana? Sheâs my biological daughter.â
âNo, Yana is the real daughter of the Nicholas family,â Isabella said plainly.
Carlâs first reaction was disbelief.
But then, an idea dawned on him.
âYou meanâ¦â
âDo I have to spell it out for you?â Isabella said. âWasnât there a keepsake with Susan when you found her? You should still have it, right? Take that keepsake and go directly to the Nicholas family. Theyâre desperate to find their daughter. Wonât they come to check?â
âBut the Nicholas family, being who they are, will probably require a DNA test.â
âYana has a condition that prevents blood drawing. We can only use hair follicles for testing. Youâre nominally Susanâs father and canât you get a few strands of her hair?â Isabella said.

Isabella replied indifferently, âThatâs not your concern. Just know that I despise Susan! As long as you can keep her under control, Iâll have more information for you in the future.â
Isabella was indeed a little mysterious.
Carlâs eyes moved, and he readily agreed.
Only then did Isabella hang up the phone.
She narrowed her eyes.
She was curious to see if Susan could easily find her way back to her roots.
In the Nicholasâ Manor Alexander rushed to Judithâs room.
âDarling, darling,â Alexander called out excitedly.
Judith gave him a cool glance and then looked away, showing no intention of speaking to him.

If only he had been stronger and more cautious, their daughter wouldnât have been lost in a foreign land.
After all these years, Alexander had almost given up hope of finding their daughter.

But now, there was a turning point.
Ignoring Judithâs cold demeanor, Alexander eagerly said, âJudith, weâve found our daughter!â
Judithâs eyes flickered slightly.
She raised her eyes and stared at Alexander.
She still didnât say anything.
However, her eyes were filled with endless desire.

âGood,â Judith said, wiping her tears and nodding firmly. âI want to go to Coraland right now.â
âLetâs go, letâs go,â Alexander said indulgently.
Judith, still in Alexanderâs arms, suddenly pushed him awkwardly. âEven though we have news of our daughter, I wonât forgive you until we find her.â
âI wonât forgive myself either until we find her.â Alexander sighed softly.
Judith fell silent for a moment.
Then she turned and sat at her vanity.
She looked in the mirror and smiled faintly.
She had personally put that bracelet on her child after she was born..
Whoever sent that photo must know where her daughter was.
