Chapter 1001 Excuses
After hearing Siobhan's words, Jackson fell into a deep silence. It was a long while later that he asked solemnly,
"Evelyn planned this?"
Siobhan shook her head, her face full of fatigue as she said with a sigh, "I don't know either, but since Evelyn
pretended to be me to lure Nicole over, she definitely has a part in this. The child in Nicole's belly was also Colton's,
and he's now looking into the matter. If he finds out that Evelyn was behind this, I'm afraid that…"
Naturally, Jackson knew how things would end as well. Although Evelyn had no blood ties with them, it still pained
them to think that the girl they had raised for over twenty years would get into trouble.
"With Colton's personality, Evelyn is probably going to be locked up." Jackson's expression turned grave.
Siobhan clammed up. If they didn't intervene in this matter, Evelyn would definitely be sent to jail.

…
Meanwhile, Evelyn had lingering fear within her after returning to the Gould Residence from the hospital. She had
watched from below how Nicole fell from the third floor, leaving a sea of crimson under her, and realized how cruel
and decisive Sasha really was.
After returning home, she began to feel uneasy. As she had expected, she had just taken a seat upstairs when one
of their housekeepers urged her downstairs.
Evelyn's heart skipped a beat guiltily, but she quickly suppressed it. She hadn't done anything anyway, so she had
nothing to be afraid of. Holding back her guilt, she slowly headed downstairs.
In the living room, Jackson and Siobhan were seated on the couch with grave expressions. Evelyn could vaguely
guess what had happened upon seeing their faces, but she kept a smile on her face and hid her guilty conscience
as she descended the stairs.
"Mom, Dad, what's wrong? Why did you come back looking so serious?" she asked in her best attempt to keep her
tone light.
As Siobhan lifted her gaze to look at her, a sharp look flashed past her eyes. She lowered her voice and said in a
steely tone, "Don't you know what you've done? Why are you asking us?"
Evelyn's gaze faltered, but she quickly concealed the look in her eyes. With a small laugh, she said mildly, "Mom,
what are you talking about? I have no idea at all."
Upon seeing that Evelyn was still playing dumb, Siobhan was filled with fury. How did the daughter she had raised
for so many years turn out to be someone full of lies?
She angrily slammed a hand on the table with a loud bang and roared sternly, "Evelyn, you used my identity to lure
Nicole to the hospital, then made her go to the opposite room and caused her miscarriage because of it! Do you

Evelyn had never seen Siobhan lose her temper before, and she cowered in fear. Soon, her eyes filled with tears as
she sniffled, saying in a choked voice, "I know that I'm not your daughter anymore, so you have a problem with me
now."
As Siobhan looked at the sobbing girl in front of her, she only felt as if her chest was stuffed with cotton, making it
difficult for her to catch her breath.
She looked at Evelyn's miserable face and said calmly, "I've never had a problem with you, but you've already
broken the law with what you did today, do you know that?"
Naturally, Evelyn couldn't admit to the truth, so she toughed it out and said persistently, "I just invited her out by
pretending to be you! I didn't do anything else! How am I breaking the law?"
Siobhan froze at her answer.
Evelyn continued, "I was just mad at Nicole for stealing Colton away! But I only warned her and didn't do anything to
her. Why are you being so accusatory? Don't tell me you think I did something wrong?"
