Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 1658: The Truth After Selena finished dressing up, she followed Madam Samantha to the banquet hall.

In the capital.

Thanks to Selena's connection, Leon easily met Maddox with Hattie.

It had only been two months since Riddle Group's downfall, but Maddox seemed to have aged twenty years. He was barely hanging on and showed signs of exhaustion. However, his ambition still burned brightly in his eyes.

As soon as Maddox saw Leon, he anxiously asked, "What happened to Riddle Group? Is Selena really..." Leon felt complicated emotions when he looked at the once invincible old man in front of him. But these emotions disappeared completely when he thought about the possibility that Daphne might be a fake after all these years.

Daphne was Maddox's bed partner and even young Issac could sense something unusual about her. Could someone as shrewd as Maddox not have noticed it? Could Daphne successfully deceive everyone for so many years without any help? Did Maddox know about this or not? The darkness in the middle of this speculation was too terrifying to think deeply about...

Thinking of that guess made Leon clench his fists and stare coldly at Maddox. "Kiera is actually your biological daughter, isn't she?" Maddox trembled, and Hattie trembled with him.

Maddox looked at Leon's cold eyes and immediately wanted to deny it, but the shock of being discovered still couldn't hide from Leon's eyes.

Leon laughed bitterly and coldly. "So, Grandpa, you knew early on that Daphne was a fake. She harmed your real wife and Nevaeh, then used herself and her illegitimate child to replace them..." Otherwise, there was no explanation for why Maddox would choose to love Kiera over Nevaeh.

He even went out of his way to help Daphne cover up the truth.

Because Kiera was also his daughter... that was the only explanation.

Maddox stared at Leon with old wrinkled skin twitching violently. "... Who told you?!" This sentence undoubtedly confirmed it all.

Leon suddenly closed his eyes.

Hattie widened her eyes as she saw the old man across from them.

Although she had already witnessed Maddox's cruelty towards Daphne before, when she heard Maddox admit it with her own ears in this moment, Hattie was still frightened by it all.

She widened her small body's stance behind Leon instinctively trying to hide away from Maddox but then stood back up straight again in front of him staring sharply into his face. "Grandma gave birth to three children for you! How could you treat her and Aunt like this... you're insane just like Daphne..." "No wonder you could produce something as dirty as Kiera..." Maddox was being scolded by his granddaughter, her wrinkled face contorting in anger. Despite this, he persisted in asking, "How did you find out?! Did someone from the Cummings family come to you?!" When the Cummings family was mentioned, Maddox's eyes lit up with a terrifying gleam.

Leon knew what he wanted to know and treated Maddox without any respect. "Selena told me over the phone." Upon hearing Selena's name, Maddox's expression twisted.

Leon enjoyed his grandfather's resentment and hatred. "I forgot to tell Grandpa that Miss Selena is actually the leader of Lab 717 and owner of 'Sacred Pearl,' now half-owner of Central City..." With each word Leon spoke, Maddox's face twisted even more.

"The two members of Riddle Group recognized Miss Selena as their goddaughter... Grandpa," Leon lowered his head and looked at Maddox's old distorted face. "Riddle Group has produced a noble princess named Riddle but unfortunately..." "But she has no connection with the Riddle family." "Riddle Group in the capital has completely disappeared because of your actions." "Not only that..." Leon looked at Maddox's constantly twitching skin with a cold smile. "I will hand over that blood-stained doll to Miss Selena." "The cause of Aunt Nevaeh's death will eventually be revealed to all." "You killed your wife and abandoned your daughter; Daphne took advantage; Kiera killed Nevaeh; Penelope... oh | forgot to tell you Penelope was executed by the tribunal before she died." "She held onto hope until her dying breath thinking that you would come save her." "But even her own father Cassius gave up on her." "Penelope, you truly live up to being the descendant of Daphne. You wouldn't believe that the person she hated most before her death wasn't Miss Selena, but rather you and Kiera for not saving her." "Your beloved granddaughter cursed you before she died, wishing for you to suffer in hell forever and never be reincarnated..." Maddox trembled violently and roared out, "Leon!!" Leon's eyes remained cold without any hint of emotion. "There's no need to rush, Grandfather. Soon enough, you'll join her with her own grandmother." "And before that happens, not only will you be a criminal of Riddle Group but also a reviled object by society." "The name Maddox will forever be nailed on the pillar of shame." Maddox howled as he lunged towards Leon. "Riddle Group will never fall! As long as Cummings family exists, Riddle Group will rise again!" Leon looked at the old man who had been corroded by power and desire without any humanity left in him and sneered.

"So what if Riddle Group rises again? Who would inherit it when your descendants are all dead?" Maddox froze as if he had been hit on his weak spot.

"Leon... you--" "Maddox," Leon interrupted him coldly. "You killed your wife and made Father and Uncle David recognize an imposter for so many years... Do you still think Hattie, Selena or | would acknowledge someone like you as our grandfather?" Maddox shuddered suddenly with a terrifyingly pale face.

"Are you insane?" He couldn't believe that anyone would give up such immense power for someone who had already passed away many years ago...

Leon sneered, "As for Kaitlyn and Ache, they've already been 'taken care of' by me and Miss Selena. Maddox, you have no heirs left." "The so-called 'sky-high wealth' is yours to enjoy alone." With that said, Leon took Hattie's hand and walked out.

Maddox watched the siblings leave from behind...
