The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson) novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291 

Jonas took another look at the seemingly unfamiliar man, his eyes widening slightly as if having recalled something. 

Jonas, do you know him?” Unable to contain his curiosity, Claude asked, noticing the change in Jonas’s expression. 

Jonas pressed his thin lips together, staying silent. 

“Don’t you two recognize me?” The man in his thirties finally spoke up, his plain face betraying no emotion. 

“Who the hell are you? Stop trying to act all familiar!” Claude snapped, impatience creeping into his voice as his volume rose. “My memory isn’t great, so you better say your name.” 

The man laughed slowly at this, saying in a calm and measured voice. “Twelve years ago, you had me ambush and attack Jackson at the Saint Yales Resort. When that failed, you ordered me to drive a truck and stage an accident, hoping to kill him. That didn’t work either, but it did leave him crippled-” 

“Nonsense!” Claude interrupted him urgently, but his fingers were trembling uncontrollably. 

How could Jackson have tracked down someone from twelve years ago? 

“What nonsense are you spouting? When did we ever ask you to do such things? Are you making up stories?* Claude snapped instinctively, his voice firm, but fear was beginning to rise in his heart. 

Jonas still remained silent, motionless. 

The light in his eyes seemed to extinguish, replaced by a dull, lifeless look. 

He suddenly realized just how terrifying his opponent, Jackson, was. 

Enduring hardship in silence, hiding his light and biding his time, knitting this grand web of schemes in the shadows for so many years, he had prepared thoroughly. 

Even the person who acted for him back then has been found. 

Everyone else listening to this was on the verge of losing their composure. 

Even Bella, standing next to Claude, covered her mouth in shock 

The truth about Jackson’s disability and Jackson’s troubled childhood was all revealed. 

It was all caused by Claude and Jonas! 

She never imagined that Claude, of all people, was the main culprit. 

Lionel and Ruth were stunned for a long time. 

Their faces were pale, filled with pain. 

Was this the truth behind Jackson’s disability? 

They had always felt sorry for Jackson’s difficult childhood, sorry that he could never use his legs from such a young age, sorry for all the suffering he had endured. 

And now they were being told that Jackson’s suffering was caused by his own brothers. 

How could Claude and Jonas do this to their own brother?

“Claude, Jonas!” Yvonne’s emotions were out of control, her eyes red and brimming with tears. She stepped forward in a flash, rushing to the two brothers, her face twisted with rage. “It was you? Jackson is your brother! Even if you don’t share the same mother, how could you do this to him? How could you be so heartless?” 

Yvonne was already in tears. 

In Jackson’s prime years, when he should have been running freely, he was confined to a wheelchair. 

The mere thought of it made Yvonne’s heartache unbearably. 

Why did her son have to suffer all this? 

She had thought it was an accident. Who could have imagined it was a long–planned conspiracy? 

The conspirators were Claude and Jonas, two illegitimate children. 

At this moment, Yvonne’s hatred for Roderick surged. 

If Roderick hadn’t had these illegitimate children, her son wouldn’t have had to suffer this way. 

“What are you yelling at them for?” Wendy couldn’t help but frown and shout at Yvonne, protective of her sons. 

“Just because this man says it, does that make it true?” Wendy scoffed. “Maybe your son found some random person to slander mine!” 

Yvonne’s fury surged upon hearing this. “You!” 

She immediately took a few steps forward, pointing a finger at Wendy, as if ready to fight. 

“Mom, don’t get 

worked up!” Karen suddenly rushed over, wrapping her arms around the agitated Yvonne. 

Karen understood Yvonne’s feelings, but right now, everything should be left to Jackson to handle. 

Acting impulsively and hurting someone would only put them at a disadvantage. 

Yvonne’s agitation slowly subsided as Karen held her. 

“Exactly!” Claude chimed in. Despite his guilt, he knew he couldn’t admit to anything. 

If he did, not only would the Bane family turn against him, but it would also stain his reputation forever if it got out. 

“Jackson just found someone random to frame me. Ridiculous!” He retorted confidently. “I don’t know this person at all. If you believe him, you’re the real fool!” 

“Is that so?” The man’s gaze locked onto Claude, his expression cold. “I’ve kept all the chat records and payment receipts from when you hired me. Would you like me to show everyone 

“What? You-” Claude couldn’t maintain his composure anymore, his face stiffening. 

He was visibly shaken, his entire body trembling.
