Meanwhile, at the Lambert residence, William and his wife had already retired for the night, as the clock had struck eleven o'clock. Their biological clocks were renowned for their remarkable punctuality.
In the opulent pink princess room, Nicole, exuding an air of regal pride, luxuriated with her feet immersed in a basin of milk bath infused with flower petals. She beckoned to Evangeline, commanding the latter with the demeanor of summoning a servant, “Come here, and wash my feet!”
Evangeline approached her with an impassive expression and crouched down beside her.
With a smug smile, Nicole assumed Evangeline was ready to serve her, and therefore, she stretched her feet out.
Unexpectedly, Evangeline picked up the basin of foot-washing water and threw its contents directly onto Nicole. “Who do you think you are, commanding me to wash your feet?” she retorted defiantly.
Nicole was taken completely by surprise when her foot-washing water splashed all over her, causing her to drench with flower petals and the scent of milk. The incident left her in a disheveled state.
Filled with uncontrollable anger, she fiercely grabbed at Evangeline's hair, demanding, “How dare you splash me with foot-washing water?”
Nicole's retaliation was overwhelmingly aggressive.
Despite Evangeline's quick attempt to step back and avoid her, she still ended up with her hair being forcefully yanked by Nicole. Instantly, a searing pain shot through her scalp.
With a condescending demeanor, Nicole looked down at Evangeline, treating her as if she were nothing more than a pile of trash. “Do you truly believe that merely becoming a part of the Lambert family makes you the heiress? Remember your place. You are just a mere housekeeper, serving me in any capacity I see fit!”
Evangeline's head throbbed with pain from Nicole's hair-pulling. Evangeline couldn't bear it any longer and decided to retaliate.
Nicole, who had been pampered in the Lambert family for so many years, couldn't match Evangeline's strength.
Evangeline reached out her hand, firmly gripping Nicole's armpit, and with a swift twist, applied strong pressure to the softest part of her underarm.
“How dare you fight back!” Nicole cried out in pain, involuntarily releasing her grip on Evangeline's hair.
In the nick of time, Evangeline skillfully saved her own hair from further harm. Then, she delivered a forceful kick to Nicole's stomach. “I may not be the legitimate heiress of the Lambert family, but you, as a foster daughter, are merely a fake. We are no different. Where do you derive your false sense of superiority? Who do you believe yourself to be? Though you may appear submissive on the surface, your true nature reveals nothing but deceit!”
Clutching her stomach in pain, Nicole's eyes widened with disbelief. She couldn't fathom how Evangeline, who had been so meek and submissive just a few days ago, could undergo such a drastic change.
The hatred in her eyes revealed her desire to devour Evangeline. “How dare you kick me? Evangeline, aren't you afraid I'll expose your true identity, revealing the real face of you, the phony person, to our parents? Aren't you scared of losing this luxurious life forever? Or do you prefer to return to your poverty-stricken home?”
Evangeline sneered after she heard Nicole's threat and squatted down in front of Nicole. With deliberate force, she trod on the back of Nicole's hand. “Nicole, stop using those threats against me. I've had enough of your constant intimidation these past few days! My identity is a fabrication of yours, and even if it comes to light, I can easily deny any knowledge of it. What will our parents do to me, an innocent victim? You know, even though I don't know why you're faking my identity, I refuse to believe that a selfish woman like you is doing it to please our parents. You must have some sinister motive behind all this. When our parents discover the truth about your deceit, it will be quite intriguing...”
Despite sweating profusely, Nicole remained determined not to show any signs of weakness. She issued a threatening ultimatum, “Evangeline! What nonsense are you spouting? I told you, as long as you obediently follow my orders, I guarantee you'll live comfortably in the Lambert family. Since you don't want to stay in the Lambert family, fine, I'll go and tell our parents the truth right now!”
Nicole had initially believed that Evangeline was a vain and easily controllable individual. However, to her surprise, she had brought home a venomous snake. What she thought would be easy prey to tame was now a threat, as she was at risk of being bitten by the very snake she had underestimated.
Nicole's gaze followed Evangeline's retreating figure, a chilling coldness lingering in her eyes that words couldn't fully describe. She remained in a daze for a long time, lost in her thoughts.
On Friday, as anticipated, Cayden successfully obtained the hair of William and his wife, promptly handing it over to Yuvan for testing.
Avery anxiously awaited the results, finding it hard to focus even while at work as her mind was preoccupied with thoughts of the outcome.
Three hours later, Yuvan called Avery, delivering the news that the results were available.
The DNA analysis revealed an astonishingly low similarity of one-hundredth of a percent between Evangeline and William and Claire, indicating that they had no blood relation whatsoever.
Upon ending the call, a whirlwind of emotions swirled within Avery's heart.
On one hand, the news of Evangeline having no blood relation to William and Claire brought delight to Avery. However, on the other hand, a sense of trepidation also crept into her emotions.
Her eyes couldn't help but drift toward the adjacent seat where Evangeline sat.
During the lunch break, Evangeline was in her element, engaging in lively conversations with her colleagues. She recounted amusing stories from her hometown, leaving everyone in stitches. She even extended an enthusiastic invitation to all her colleagues, urging them to attend her reunion banquet the following day.
