Chapter 1040
Chapter 1040:
Hannah’s eyes narrowed, her patience clearly thinning.
“If that’s the case, stop wasting everyone’s time.
Bring me the DNA test report, or stop with the games.
I won’t entertain your nonsense any longer.”
The crowd, growing restless, murmured in agreement.
“Exactly! A DNA test would clear this up.”
“Why all the talking?”
Korbin and Betty exchanged a nervous glance.
The truth was simple—they had no DNA test report.
Nor could they admit that Marissa wasn’t their biological daughter.
The person who had forced them to take Marissa in years ago had made it clear—silence was their only option if they valued their lives.
Betty’s smile faltered, and she spoke again, her tone wavering.
“Mrs. Nash, we’re from a village.
We don’t know how to arrange a DNA test.
But I brought more evidence—someone who will prove that wretched woman is not who she claims to be.”

Marissa’s expression darkened when she heard Betty call her “wretched woman” again.
The quiet forgiveness she once showed was gone, replaced by a steely resolve.
But Betty, oblivious to the change in Marissa, pressed on.
Her voice rose.
“If you don’t trust Camila’s testimony, I’ve brought Derek from the Daniels family to confirm Marissa’s identity.
Surely you’ll believe him?”
She gestured toward the banquet hall’s entrance.
“The Nash family didn’t invite the Daniels tonight, so Derek is waiting outside.
But he’s ready to come in and help expose the lies of this wretched woman.”
Marissa’s eyes narrowed.
Her gaze was sharp, unyielding, and colder than before.
Paul, Connor, and Everett all fixed their cold, unwavering stares on Betty, their shared disdain matching Marissa’s icy demeanor.
Paul had heard that Marissa’s childhood in Adagend had been harsh.noveldrama
But hearing about it was one thing.
Seeing the evidence in front of him now, he could barely imagine the depths of what she had endured.
Betty’s cutting words and her whole family’s determination to destroy Marissa made it clear to Paul just how much misery she must have faced as a little girl.
The owner of the Sunrise, known for his ruthless methods, now stood like a volcano about to erupt.
Connor’s eyes blazed with a sharp, icy light, each glance a threat.
