Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 729

Carter sank to his knees and slammed his forehead against the ground. The sharp crack echoed through the courtyard. Tears streaked down his face, his whole body shaking as regret poured out of him.

Stephen staggered backward, almost losing his balance when the truth hit him.

“Dad!”

“Grandpa!”

“Stephen!”

Everyone from the Blue family rushed to steady Stephen, afraid the shock might be too much.

Wiona watched, worry twisting in her chest.

“Grandpa…”

Doubt crept in. Had she done the right thing, bringing all of this to light so suddenly? The truth mattered, but what if it was just too much for him? Maybe this wasn’t the safest way.

Conrad came to her side, his hand gentle but firm on her shoulder. He gave her a reassuring squeeze.

“It’s okay. Your grandfather’s strong. He can handle this.”

Looking into Conrad’s eyes, Wiona found a little peace, just enough to keep her steady.

Stephen took a shaky breath, then stormed over to Carter and slapped him, hard.

“You... you killed my daughter! You took Luna from me!”

Grandma Julia clapped a hand over her mouth, her eyes wide with shock and pain.

“My daughter… It was you and your wife, both of you heartless...”

She couldn’t finish.

“Carter, look at Wiona. Look at the child Luna left behind. Tell me, what right do you have to call yourself her uncle?”

Carter collapsed, unable to stand.

Mike and Zachary yanked him up, each delivering a punch of their own.

“You kept this secret for twenty-five years! Twenty-five damn years!”

“When we finally found Luna, there was nothing left but her ashes.”

“We still don’t know what happened to her.”

“She’s been the wound in this family’s heart. Every time someone mentions her, it’s like tearing it open again.”

“How could you let this happen to her?”

“Look at the camellia tree in the yard. Do you feel nothing? No shame, no guilt, all these years?”
