Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 

Yulia had no idea why her grandpa arranged this gathering today 

The talk of “gains” and losses felt profoundly unfair to her grandmother. 

It was painful to witness him reminisce about his deceased ex-wife in front of so many people, using terms like “forced” to describe marriages. 

It felt like an invisible sword piercing her grandmother’s heart, stripping her of dignity. 

Yulia wanted to stand up for her grandmother but hesitated, fearing that one wrong word could plunge her back into despair. 

Rayburn continued, “When Megan had to leave me due to some complex reasons, she was already a few months pregnant. She later changed her name to Amelia and gave birth to our daughter alone. Unfortunately, she also died in an accident. 

With each word, Rita and Garrick felt a tightening in their hearts 

After Rayburn finished his last sentence, he sighed. Before anyone could fully digest his words, he quickly added, “Though our daughter is gone, she left behind a wonderful granddaughter, who is here today. 

“I 

believe you all know her. Please give her a round of applause. I want to share this joy.” 

As soon as he stopped speaking, applause erupted mixed with whispers, 

People began to speculate, “Who could it be? There are so many young women here today. Who exactly is his granddaughter?” 

“This feels staged. Everything feels so overly dramatic.” 

“I can’t wait to see this lost granddaughter. With the Muller family’s wealth, wouldn’t she be the most adored?” 

Yulia’s expression shifted as she glanced at her grandmother, who maintained her calm demeanor, seemingly unfazed. 

Yulia wondered, “Who is it?” 

Inside, however, Rita was distressed, repeatedly whispering, ‘Impossible! Rayburn, don’t force me 

Nearby, Garrick watched Rita with concern, wondering where Rayburn would find someone to deceive everyone. 

The applause continued for a long time before it quieted down. 

Rayburn’s voice rang out again, “Thank you all. Let me introduce my granddaughter, Cherise. Cherise, come here.” Rayburn, with a doting expression, beckoned Cherise over, 

His announcement was like a bombshell, shocking everyone present. 

The revelation that he had found his granddaughter was surprising enough, but naming her as the renowned Cherise sent shockwaves through the crowd. 

“Cherise, is that really you?” Phoebe asked in disbelief.

“Cherise, is it true? This–feels like a plot from a dramat Jean exclaimed.

At the next table, Gavino, Truman’s grandfather, said excitedly. “So Cherise is Megan’s granddaughter. I knew it! There’s such a strong resemblance. Isn’t it amazing. Truman?* 

Truman, wide–eyed, took a sip of wine to mask his shock. “Even my entertainment company wouldn’t dare to make such at movie. This is unbelievable.” 

Lucas and Mary were momentarily speechless. 

Cherise nodded at Phoebe, “Yes, Grandma, Mr. Muller is my grandfather.”
