The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 441

Chapter 441: Chapter 441: The Child Has Been Found

As Gregory Xander spoke, the scene suddenly fell eerily silent. Even the elderly woman who had been cursing and throwing a tantrum moments ago froze in shock, a flash of panic flitting across her face before she quickly regained composure and shrieked,

"What nonsense is this boy spewing?! How could I have killed my own granddaughter?!"

Saying this, she prepared to start ranting again,

"Something happened to my granddaughter! I’ve suffered so much, and now someone is trying to falsely accuse me! Where’s the justice in this world?!"

She then grabbed the arm of a nearby police officer, "Quick, arrest this bastard! He’s slandering me with lies! I’ll never forgive him!"

Despite the elderly woman’s loud and aggressive shouting, it didn’t cause Gregory Xander to back down in the slightest. He continued to look straight at her.

Behind him, the woman seemed to come to a realization, staring blankly at her mother-in-law,

"Is what he said true? Did you kill my child?"

Upon hearing this, the elderly woman began yelling again, "You believe whatever people say?! Are you brainless?!"

But Gregory Xander replied,

"You know the truth best in your heart; you’ve been tainted with guilt, and that guilt stems from your own blood relatives..."

"Nonsense!!"

Before Gregory Xander could finish, the elderly woman angrily spat at him.

Ariel Zimmerman, who had been silently watching from the side, quickly stepped in and pulled them apart, preventing the spit from hitting him directly, yet even so, Gregory Xander’s face turned visibly dark.

The viewers in the livestream room were so engrossed in the drama unfolding that they forgot to send comments, merely feeling that today’s twist was quite thrilling.

Although some doubted the authenticity of Gregory Xander’s words, most still believed him.

After all, everyone had witnessed Senior Brother Xander’s prowess during that encounter with Scarlett Jennings.

On the other side, the elderly woman’s tirade against Gregory Xander only generated more suspicion from the surrounding police officers and the child’s mother.

The most discerning was Officer Yuan, who was experienced in handling numerous criminal investigations. He could instantly detect the concealed guilt and panic beneath the elderly woman’s angry façade.

"What was the name of your first child? When did they die? I’ll have the records retrieved."

Upon hearing Officer Yuan’s words, the elderly woman’s face went deathly pale.

The child’s mother, emerging from her initial chaos, immediately looked at the elderly woman with reddened eyes,

"Did you really kill my child?! You killed Ellie?! You were the one who took her to the lakeside to play! And you claimed she accidentally fell into the water?!"

The woman’s hysterical screams were unsettling, and the elderly woman was caught off guard, allowing herself to be grabbed by the woman’s clothes, her earlier arrogance instantly dissipating into visible panic.

The livestream room exploded again, with commenters unanimously criticizing the elderly woman’s inhumanity.

It took some effort for the police officers on site to separate them, after which the elderly woman recovered from her initial panic and began to wail pathetically,

"You’re all together trying to wrong this old woman!! Ellie is my biological granddaughter! How could I harm her?!"

Crying, she turned to the woman,

"I know I failed to protect Ellie, and you’ve resented me ever since. Haven’t you been blaming me?! So after you had a second child, you’ve been guarding against me! You’ve decided in your heart that I murdered your child?! Accusing me without evidence, you’re going to drive me to my grave!!"

"There’s evidence."

Gregory Xander suddenly spoke up, his face serious as he looked at the elderly woman, then turned to the child’s mother,

"Give me the birthdates of her and your child, and I can help you ascertain the true cause of your daughter’s death."

Upon hearing this, the woman almost instinctively gave herself and her eldest daughter’s birth dates. Despite worrying for her second daughter, she couldn’t let go of her first child.
