Chapter 18
At this time, Kim, Kerry, and Terry all arrived.
Looking at her once beloved daughter, who looked miserable and disheveled, Kerry didn’t know how to describe her feelings at that moment.
Yesterday, Terry had already told them everything.
Kerry fainted several times, and Kim, who had quit smoking for more than ten years, sat beside her and started smoking with a defeated expression.
“Grace, why did you do this?”
Everyone asked Grace this question after learning the truth.
They all wondered, “Why?
“Didn’t she already get many things that Amanda didn’t have?”
Grace fell silent for a moment.
She looked at Kerry, Kim, and Terry.
She laughed bitterly, “What does it matter that I have been raised and cared for so many years? She is your real daughter.”
For so many years, that had troubled her a lot.
Family ties were the most unbeatable.
“You are a silly girl.” Kerry pounded her chest. “It’s not just you who is silly.
“We were wrong. We were all wrong.”
At this point, Kerry had already become numb.
She looked at Adam and asked, “And what about her? Did you send someone to look for her?”
Regret and pain were also tormenting Kerry.
Kim and Terry didn’t look very good either.
Obviously, they were all unable to sleep at night.
“That is my daughter, my biological daughter. And I drove her away. How disappointed and how much she hated me? When I gave birth to her, I cherished her so much. When I found out she had

been stolen, I wished I could die.
“Why did I treat her like that? I am so unforgivable. I don’t deserve to be a mother.”
Kerry cried uncontrollably.
Kim supported her but remained silent.
It took him a long time before he spoke.
“Adam, Terry, and I have already used all of the Hacker family’s connections to find Amanda. I
know you are also very anxious and looking for her. I’m begging you. Please, if you have any news, can you let me know?”
With that, Kim was about to bow.
Adam stopped him and said, “Mr. Hacker, it is my responsibility to find Amanda.”
“Alright, please, if there is any news, mal
sure to inform the Hacker family. We must repay what
we owe her, regardless of whether she accepts it or forgives us. We must repay it.”
Kerry murmured.
From beginning to end, neither Kim nor Kerry looked at Grace again.
“Adam, in our family, it is believed that people who do wrong things should always be punished.”
Terry supported his almost paralyzed mother, his
eyes still red.
“Grace brought this upon herself and cannot be forgivable. Let the law take its course.”
At this moment, Grace could no longer hold back.
She shouted.
“No! Mom, Dad, Terry, how could you treat me like this?
“I am your family, aren’t I? For the past twenty–something years, haven’t you loved me?
“How could you treat me like this?
“Adam, I beg you. I am willing to apologize to Amanda. I can do everything to make her forgive me
Grace looked terrible.
She knelt to reach Adam’s leg.

2/4
Adam took a step back mercilessly.
Grace wanted to pull Kim and Kerry, but they also retreated.
Even the soft–hearted Kerry did not waver this time.
She looked at the “adopted daughter” she had loved for over twenty years, utterly disappointed.
“Grace, it is of no use for you to seek anyone now, as what goes around comes around.
“You have enjoyed so many years of Amanda’s life. Now it’s time to repay her.
“None of us will let you get away with it anymore. You must pay for what you did.
“From now on, you are not worthy of being called Grace anymore. You were supposed to be called
Amanda.”
