The plot took a sharp downward turn, and Delphine once again found herself at the center of the storm.
The crowd began to gossip incessantly.
It seems that the adopted daughter of the Leclair Family does have some issues. That scandal back then caused quite a stir.
Ignatius Leclair's face was ashen. Seeing Thiago Wade jump into the fray, his gaze, sharp as a knife, turned toward his father, Stone Leclair. Stone, having endured suffocation for days, finally retaliated.
Although the scheme appeared aimed at Delphine, it was actually a step-by-step attack targeting him.
If Ignatius stepped forward today to admit that the man back then was him, by tomorrow, the scandal would spread like wildfire. Not only would his maternal grandmother be furious enough to spit blood, but even the old master would be enraged enough to fly back from Switzerland. At that point, Delphine's fate would undoubtedly take a dark turn.
