Catherine was also choked by his words. After a moment, she said, “Three years ago, I told you that
Rebecca was pretending to be Shelley…”
Chester interrupted her. “But we did a DNA test. The one who died was Shelley. Catherine, I know you
and Charity had a good relationship, but no one in the Neeson family is simple. You shouldn’t just think
about clearing her name.”
Catherine was immediately annoyed by his attitude. “Previously, you said that Sarah was simple and
kind and that Charity always bullied her. Now that you have a clear understanding of Sarah’s true
colors, do you think Charity could’ve bullied her? Didn’t you see I was bullied by Sarah so badly that I
almost committed suicide? You now know that you misunderstood me back then, so has it never
crossed your mind that Charity was the old me?”
Chester was stunned by her words.
Shaun quickly agreed like a sycophant. “Cathy, you’re absolutely right. Your words have really woken
me up. We were too prejudiced against Charity in the past.” “Yes, it was prejudice.”
Catherine agreed with Shaun’. “Chester, although I don’ t know what happened between Charity and
you, you were prejudiced against her and decided that she was a bad woman. You were even afraid
that your thinking was wrong, so you found countless reasons to prove you were right, but the truth is
that you were too stubborn. I really don’t understand. She’s dead, yet why can’t you give her a fair
chance?”
“She’s dead?” Chester murmured. He recalled that when he went to the cemetery the other day, the
grave where the Neeson family’s ashes were buried was dug up.
“Of course she is. She jumped into the sea, and the police searched high and low for her but found
nothing. Do you think she’s still alive?” Catherine felt a lump in her throat.
Shaun did not know how to comfort her, hence all he could do was pat her back over and over.
Catherine returned to the main topic. “At that time, I really did test Shelley’s hair with Jeffery and
confirmed that they were indeed related. However, when the test was being done in Melbourne,
Rebecca’s friend from before found out.
“The one who died is the real Shelley because she got switched back the moment before the fire
started. I had already guessed back then that Rebecca couldn’t do so many things alone. Rebecca was
just a pawn to intensify the conflict between Shaun and me.
“The day before yesterday, when I was checking through Wesley’s laptop, I found he had a photo of
Shelley when she was in college. He saved it before Shelley came to your side as a caregiver.”
Catherine looked at Shaun. “I suspect that Wesley was secretly working for the Campos family at that
time. After you threw Rebecca into the ravine, she was brought back by the Campos family and
became a pawn of revenge. Wesley found the real Shelley’s whereabouts and had her photo, so he
made Rebecca transform her face into Shelley’s through cosmetic surgery and approach you. The real
Shelley was already in their hands. When the truth was almost revealed, they pulled a trick and burned
the real Shelley to death instead.”
Shaun and Chester were horrified.
What Catherine said was most probably true. Otherwise, how would Wesley, who had just come to
Canberra, have an early photo of Shelley?
Chester said with mixed feelings. “Then why did they frame Charity? Charity has nothing to do with
them.”
Catherine glared at him frustratingly. “I realize that the two of you really become blockheads when it
comes to the Neesons. Have you ever thought that if Charity wasn’t the one who was framed, Shaun
and I wouldn’t have fought to that point?”
Shaun and Chester were stunned for a moment. However, they quickly understood.
Catherine said, “Charity was my friend, and I definitely wouldn’t stand knowing my good friend was
framed. In order to save her, I’d definitely fall out with Shaun, Rodney, and you.
“My poor relationship with Shaun also directly affected his condition. Later, his condition deteriorated,
and he even started to lose his memory. He had to stay in the hospital often and rarely went to the
company. In fact, I had already suspected back then that the fake Shelley was adding things in his
milk.”
Chester pondered for a while, and a shadow flashed in his eyes. “If that’s true, maybe Shaun’s meals
were indeed tampered with. His condition was deteriorating too quickly back then, but I didn’t suspect it
at first. I thought that you triggered him.
