Chapter 720: Chapter 717: You Won’t Tell the Truth? Then I’ll Say It for You

Seeing the panic in Autumn Shelby’s eyes, Clara Grant grew even more certain of her suspicions.

Sierra Sutton had once told her the baby’s mother’s last name was Shelby. At the time, she hadn’t thought much of it and never made the connection to Autumn Shelby.

But just a moment ago, when Sierra Sutton was answering the question of who the baby’s mother was, Autumn Shelby’s strange outburst had aroused her suspicions.

And now, seeing her even more flustered expression, the suspicion in her heart slowly hardened into certainty. Though she was reluctant to believe it, she had to face the facts: Autumn Shelby was most likely the baby’s biological mother.

She opened her mouth, about to say something, but her gaze swept over to Sierra Sutton and the baby in his arms. When she met the baby’s clear, smiling eyes, she silently closed her mouth.

It wasn’t that she felt sorry for Autumn Shelby, nor did she have any sympathy for Sierra Sutton. Her heart ached for the child. Autumn Shelby was, after all, the baby’s birth mother, and Clara didn’t want the child to witness his mother’s miserable, cornered state.

"I can explain what she means," Seth Quinn said casually from the side, while Clara Grant was still feeling too compassionate to press the issue.

As he spoke, his gaze landed on Sierra Sutton. He raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "However, before that, I’d like to ask something.

Sierra Sutton, you said you came back from England. But why do I recall you telling Clara you came back from the U.S.A.?

So, where did you *really* come back from?"

His words not only made Sierra Sutton freeze for a moment, but the expressions of Autumn Shelby, Yvette Zimmerman, and Evan Shelby tensed up again as well.

In her panic, Yvette Zimmerman even secretly tugged on Evan Shelby’s sleeve. They exchanged a look, and each could see the tension and worry in the other’s eyes.

Sierra Sutton froze for two seconds before quickly recovering. He said coolly, "Perhaps Miss Grant misremembers. I never said I came back from the U.S.A."

"Is that so?" A slight smile played on Seth Quinn’s lips, but his expression was icy. "Sierra Sutton, you don’t want to tell the truth? Fine. I’ll say it for you.

A year ago, while Autumn Shelby was still my fiancée, you and she were already together. Then, she got pregnant, and the two of you went to the U.S.A., where she gave birth to the child you’re holding right now.

So, that means Autumn Shelby is this child’s biological mother! Am I right?"

’He originally hadn’t wanted to expose Autumn Shelby so cruelly. After all, she had devoted more than twenty years of her life to him, and she really had once suffered from depression because of him.

He had said that as long as Autumn Shelby stopped hurting Clara, he would let her off the hook and give her some leeway.

But Autumn Shelby was unrepentant and had even hounded Clara relentlessly. In that case, she couldn’t blame him for being ruthless!’

Hearing Seth Quinn’s words, Yvette Zimmerman felt her vision go black. Her body went limp, and she nearly collapsed on the floor.

Evan Shelby also felt his blood pressure skyrocket. ’Is this the end for the Shelby Family?’

Sienna Hale’s head was spinning, and she couldn’t help but blurt out, "What? Seth, what are you saying?"

’This... how is this possible? While she was preparing to marry Seth, Autumn Shelby was also with Sierra Sutton? And she even got pregnant, and then... then she actually had the baby!

How is that possible?!

And to think that for the past twenty-plus years, she had always treated Autumn Shelby like her own daughter. Even when Autumn fled the wedding, and even when she came back claiming she’d had depression and went abroad for treatment, she had believed her.

But she never imagined that all along, Autumn had been lying to her!’
