The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 219

Melissa remained silent while Ashley watched with glee. She had seen the video from THEONE Club

already and never imagined that the recording she had posted online would have such a wonderful

effect.

Arabella was not only disfigured, but she had also miscarried.

And now it had been confirmed that Arabella was not Scott’s daughter. She couldn’t wait to see

Arabella kicked out of the Brooks family. And then there was Tristan. What would he do if he knew he

had become disabled for an imposter? Would he want to strangle Arabella on the spot?

She really wanted to tell Tristan about this immediately.

“Scott, what does this mean?” Paul asked, feeling stunned. “Arabella is not your daughter? She’s an

imposter?”

“Hmm” Scott nodded.

Paul stood there, deeply shocked.

“Aren’t you going to donate blood anymore? The patient is still waiting for a transfusion!” The nurse

urged him anxiously.

“I’m not donating anymore!” Paul turned around angrily and walked away. He didn’t want to spend

another moment here. “Damn it! How dare she trick me?!”

He thought back to how he had tried to please Arabella. He even followed her all the way from

Rivenwood to Havenwood.

But did he really like her?

Maybe a little, but the main reason was that she was the only daughter of Scott, the head of the

Hawthorn clan and the Brooks family.

However, after being ridiculed online for her and losing dignity in his family for her, he had now been

told that Arabella was not Scott’s daughter. She was an imposter! Everything he had gone through

meant nothing!

His fury was indescribable!

After seeing Paul walk away and realizing that no one else in Scott’s group looked like they were going

to donate blood for Arabella, the nurse stomped her foot and went to seek help from others.

“What do we do now?” Ashley asked Scott with a worried look in her eyes. “If Arabella is not your child,

then…”

Scott remained silent as he thought of Karen.

Though he had always suspected that Arabella was not his daughter, he was overjoyed when the first

paternity test results came out.

He was happy that his long search for Karen and his child had finally come to an end.

But because he was so happy then, he was incredibly angry now

He looked around at his family. All eyes were on him, waiting for his response.

His cold gaze fell on the operating room door, and he said coldly. “I will sue her and Beatrice for fraud!”

Ashley could hardly suppress her laugh.

Arabella was only out on bail. Now that she had miscarried and was no longer pregnant, the Brooks

family could sue her again, and she would be thrown back in jail immediately

Ashley hated Arabella. She was a low–born girl with an unknown background, who had dared to covet

the position of the Brooks family s heiress and had always been domineering over her.

Now that Arabella’s true identity had been exposed, she would make sure to get back at her for all the

grievances she had suffered

Two hours later, in the maternity ward.

When Arabella woke up, she found that there was no one around her, not even a nurse.

She struggled to sit up, but the nurse who came to change her IV bag quickly stopped her “You need to

stay in bed. You just had a major hemorrhage and had to have your uterus removed. Don’t move

around.‘

“What?!” Arabella’s eyes widened. She thought she had just had a miscarriage. Why had her uterus

been removed?

Now she could never ever bear children.

What would she do in the future?

If the Ellington family found out about this, they would never let her into the family.

“Where’s my family? Haven’t they come?” Arabella asked in a panic. How could the Brooks family not

show up when such a big thing had happened to her?

Chapter 219

“You should check the news.” The nurse handed Arabella the smartphone from the bedside table with a

complicated look in her eyes,

then left

Arabella quickly opened the phone and saw news updates flashing on the screen.

“Scott, the head of the Brooks family and Hawthorn clan, has publicly announced that Arabella, who

was previously accused of murdering her grandmother, is not his biological daughter. Arabella and

others had forged paternity tests and deceived him. The Brooks family will sue Arabella and her

accomplices for fraud.”

Arabella was stunned. How could this be?

She had managed to fake three paternity tests, so how could Scott have found out so quickly that she

was an imposter?

She pulled out the IV in her hand, struggled to get out of bed, and decided to go back to the Brooks

family to explain. She had to come up with a plausible explanation to convince them to believe her.

But as soon as she stepped out of her room, she saw Jaylan leading a group of police officers coming

from the elevator at the other

end of the corridor.

She panicked and fled in the opposite direction. She had just had surgery, so her wound was still

bleeding, and she could barely stand, but she forced herself to go down the stairs of the emergency

exit.

She recognized that she was in the private hospital owned by the Pendleton family. Remembering that

Tristan was also in this hospital, she decided to seek his help.

Tristan had always doted on her and listened to her; he would definitely help her.

With a pale face and wobbly legs, she made her way to Tristan’s room.

After more than half a month of treatment, Tristan could not walk yet, but he could sit up. He was sitting

in bed, reading a book signed by Calista.

“Tristan!” Arabella, with teary eyes, rushed towards him. “Dad and the others, I don’t know whose lies

they have believed; they think I’m not his child! You have to help me!”

Tristan put down the book he was reading and looked at Arabella, who was lying next to his hospital

bed. His tone was ambiguous. “So. are you saying you haven’t been deceiving us?”

“No!” Arabella shook her head vigorously. “Really, I didn’t. I’m Dad’s daughter! I’m your benefactor’s

daughter! You have to help me!”

“Humph Tristan angrily threw a new paternity test report at Arabella. “When you were unconscious after

the surgery, Dad had an urgent paternity test done in this hospital using your blood!”

The report lying on the floor stated that Arabella had no blood relation to Scott.

Tristan’s face darkened, and he viciously grabbed Arabella’s chin and spoke in a bone–chillingly

menacing tone. “You imposter Look at what you’ve done to me! How are you going to make up for

this?”

If Arabella really was his benefactor’s daughter, he wouldn’t hesitate to give his life for her, even if it

meant becoming disabled.

But Arabella was a fraud!

He had foolishly ruined his life for her.

“Tristan?” Arabella was shocked and pushed Tristan’s hand away as she fell to the floor. “How could

you treat me like this? You promised you’d always protect me and stand by me!”

“Those words were meant for my benefactor’s daughter!” Tristan glared maliciously at Arabella on the

floor. “You’re just garbage to me

now.”
