My Fiancé Married My Adopted Sister, Then Called ME the Mistress?! Chapter 07

Staring at the intense hatred in Shawna’s eyes, Idris’s expression turned solemn.

“Your mother is gone, and the suffering you endured over the past five years will count as repayment to my

mom. We’re even now.”

“And I asked the doctor about your condition. It’s stage two-there’s a good chance of recovery.”

Shawna looked at him mockingly. “So?”

Idris turned his face away, not daring to look at her.

“We can start over.”

The moment the words left his mouth, Shawna burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face.

“Idris, you want to call it even? You want to start over? Who do you think you are?”

Idris stared at her. “What do you mean?”

Shawna gave him an address and a key code.

“Go to my apartment and find my mother’s diary.”

“Read it and then come talk to me about calling it even.”

Though puzzled, Idris did as he was told.

Yet he refused to believe that a truth he had clung to for decades could be entirely false.

He flew straight to the Quinn estate overnight to confront his father.

His relationship with Harrison had always been strained. Seeing his son like this, and weighed down by his

own aging guilt, Harrison finally confessed everything.

The moment he learned the truth, Idris froze for a long time before completely breaking down.

By the time he returned to the hospital room, his eyes were swollen red.

He fell to his knees with a loud thud that echoed sharply through the quiet room.

He raised his head, tears streaming down his face, his voice raspy and broken.

“Shawna, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry to you and your mom…”

He grabbed Shawna’s hand and forced it toward his own face.

“Shawna, hit me. Do whatever you want to me, as long as you can forgive me.”

He knew the entire truth now.

Shawna’s mother had never been anyone’s mistress.

And Andrea, the woman he had married, was the actual daughter of the mistress.

His chest burned with overwhelming regret.

He had hated the wrong person, driven Shawna’s mother to her death, and ruined Shawna’s life.

He wept hysterically, tears and mucus blurring his face. “Shawna, please… give me a chance to make

amends.”

“I’ll divorce Andrea, and I’ll make her terminate the pregnancy.”

Tears dripped into the corners of his mouth as he broke down completely.

“Shawna, whether you believe it or not, you’re the only one I’ve ever loved.”

“I’ve been secretly looking for you all these years. And the baby with Andrea-that only happened because I

got drunk that night.”

Yet his confession earned nothing but disgust from Shawna.

The damage was already done. What was the point of saying all this now?

Her icy glare pierced through him, suffocating him with agony.

“Shawna, don’t look at me like that. I really want to make things right.”

“I’ve already contacted a top medical team from abroad. They’ll cure you.”

Hearing this, Shawna’s heart softened for a fraction of a second.

It wasn’t that she was afraid to die.

It was because her mother’s last wish was for her to live well.

Idris keenly caught the crack in her cold exterior.

Overjoyed, he immediately rushed the medical team to arrive as fast as possible.

At the same time, to make up for all her years of suffering, he transferred thirty million dollars into her bank

account.

“Shawna, don’t worry about the money. I owe you this. I’ll get you cured.”

Shawna didn’t turn it down.

If he hadn’t condemned her mother without bothering to investigate, she would have had a bright future and a successful career.

She wouldn’t be lying in a hospital bed with stomach cancer from years of scrimping, saving, and

overworking herself.

The medical team arrived quickly, and Shawna fully cooperated with the treatment plan.

The day before her surgery, Andrea burst into the hospital room.

No longer able to maintain her usual gentle facade, she lunged at Shawna like a madwoman.

“Shawna, what did you say to Idris? He wants a divorce!”

“He’s even forcing me to get an abortion!”

Gemma, who had followed Andrea in, looked at Shawna with contempt. “Don’t tell me you fool him into feeling sorry for you again.”

Shawna ignored Gemma and waved Andrea closer. “Come a little closer, and I’ll tell you why.”

Puzzled, Andrea leaned in, only to receive a slap across the face from Shawna.

Glowing with shock, Andrea clutched her cheek and stared at Shawna. “Are you insane? How dare you hit

me?”

She raised her hand to strike back, but Idris stepped inside and caught her wrist.

“You keep this up, and I’ll see to it you don’t get a single penny of the settlement.”

As Andrea struggled, Shawna said flatly, “Your mother was the actual mistress.”

“And you’re nothing but an ungrateful snake.”
