Such an unreasonable question made it sound as if she were the victim.

Although Ava was speaking to Lydia, the one who responded to her was Howard. "No. I wasn't home at that time. Given her vitals, my wife was already at risk during childbirth. As my older brother, it was his responsibility to look after her. But you were petty and just had to kick up a fuss, leading to premature delivery. You brought it upon yourself!"
He hit the nail on the head. Right now, he's my spokesperson. person who loves to shift the blame like Mrs. Willis should be confronted by someone who knows the truth, Judging by her face having flushed bright red with anger, she likely still has the sense to know that she doesn't have a leg to stand on.
The Quirks agreed with Isabella's criticisms completely because by then, Ava had already resorted to raising her voice to mask her guilt.
"No! It was all Lydia and Damien's fault! When I had given birth to Ollic and that man showed up after I had waited so long, he didn't even spare our son a glance. Instead, he was all focused on looking in on your son, doting on him so much as if he were his son. His love for him because of you was a total disrespect to me. I hate him! He should have treated my son better!
"So you switched them." Lydia gritted her teeth, seething with resentment.
"Fortunately, luck was on my side. The two kids grew to look more and more alike. I seized the opportunity when you were away on a business trip and switched them. Not a single person realized what I did. It's only right that he tre sort well, isn't it? But he died. Not long after I switched the kids, he got killed because of Damien."
"What a lunatic! You're crazy! I remember now. The day Jared had a car accident, he only went out because he had a row with you and ended up in an accident. If anyone is to be blamed, it's you!" Howard immediately retorted.
"No, it was because of Damien! He only had an accident because he went out to look for Damien," Ava snarled.
Suddenly, a voice rang out. It was someone from the Winters family. "I remember now! It was seemingly because you lost Damien that Jared was in a rush to go out and look for him, leading to his death. Event though Damien was found later, by the time everyone went looking for Jared, news of his car accident reached us. That was why there were rumors about Damien bringing misfortune to his family. Thinking back upon it now, it brings a different perspective."
"Because you switched your child, you neglected me, perhaps even wishing I'd go missing. But he believed that I was Oliver, his child. Even though he might not have liked the child because it wasn't of his own volition but your coercion, he still took up the responsibility of a father and rushed our anxiously to search for the child... Hah! It was you. It was you who caused his death! Yet, you blamed it on me. What's the matter? You can't face the reality that your despicable actions led to the death of the man you loved, so you made me bear the trauma of causing my father's death all these years?"
After Damien had finished analyzing the truth in a murmur, he looked at Ava with a dull yet mocking
gaze..
Meanwhile, Ava slirieked because he had ripped off her last figment of self-delusion,
"No! All of this is your both faults! It was all because of you two!"

It was impossible to reason with a madwoman. So, Lydia decided to let everything go and take direct action.
She slapped Ava for as many years Damien lived.
By the time everyone gathered their wits about them, Ava's face had already swollen, all the wrinkles on her face stretched taut.
With a mix of saliva and blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, Ava was initially stunned. On the heels of that, she blew up and slurred, "How dare you hit me!"
In the next moment, she surprisingly shouted, "Damien, are you just going to sit back and do nothing as she picks on your mother?"
Damien was initially dazed by the truth, a myriad of emotions brewing within his heart. But at that moment, he was so upset that he snickered aloud.
"Who are you talking to? You should be seeking help from your biological son, Oliver," Damien said, a mocking look in his eyes as he turned to Oliver.
At that moment, Oliver seem o have just snapped back to reality. He looked at Ava in disbelief and distaste. "No, she's not my mother. Never! You'd better explain yourself properly, you lunatic!"
Ava was deeply hurt by his disdain. "Why would you say that? Everything I've done was but to give you a fighting chance. I've placed you in the best position possible. It was you who didn't make good use of it. Why couldn't you beat Damien? Why just couldn't my son outshine hers?" "Shut up!" Oliver lambasted right back after having had his sore spot hit, unbothered about her true relationship with him.
Ava was momentarily stunned by his shout before she said maniacally, "No, it wasn't your fault but that of Lydia Sanders..." She turned her gaze to Lydia.
"You already regarded Ollie as your biological son, yet you refused to name him as your heir. Sure enough, you're wicked," Ava absurdly remarked.
At that point, Lydia didn't even need to refute her anymore. The onlookers themselves couldn't bear to watch further.
"I'd say that fate indeed ensures that evil never triumphs good."
"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree."
"What kind of decent person could come from her genes? Both Oliver and Ruby are sickos. Even a change in status can't change one's nature."
Exactly. If it wasn't for her despicable actions, the siblings-"
"Ugh, how disgusting! Please don't talk about it anymore. Recalling all the ridiculous things they did. I'm

tickled pink. No wonder she wanted to pin the blame of Damien. I bet she couldn't even accept the truth. herself.
"Indeed. Such a thing happening shows that they're roten from the core.
"It's retribution. It's all karma. Even the heavens couldn't stand her manipulative actions. Yet, she still feels wronged and doesn't even bother considering what her children are going through because of her malicious doing." "Casting my mind back to that room just now, goodness, don't they feel disgusted themselves?"
"Rumor has it that they've been together for a while now, and it was purported to purposely upset Damien that they hooked up in the first place at that."
"Wow, unbelievable! What goes around really does come around. One should truly never harbor ill intentions."
Suddenly, a piercing scream once again interrupted all the whispers in the air. Ruby finally couldn't take it anymore and screeched madly, "No! My brother is Damien! It's not true!"
She didn't dare look at Oliver anymore. Naturally, Oliver had also realized what the truth meant for them. At that moment, he too was so revolted that he dared not look at her.
What have we done? And why did all of this happen?
"Damien! Just like her mother, R
howed no mercy when she picked on Damien. But when she was in
trouble, her first instinct was still to turn to him.
Unfortunately for her, Damien's response remained the same. "I'm not your brother. That's your brother." He pointed at Oliver. "Isn't your relationship with him. beyond good? You should be asking him for help." He had no intention of covering up for them. In fact, he wished nothing more than to revisit the pain he suffered over the years on them a thousandfold.
In the end, Ruby couldn't bear the blow anymore and fled in desperation.
Oliver also yearned to escape. He couldn't face the look in everyone's eyes, let alone the change in identity.
Shuddered, Sergio was also unable to stay any longer. Ignoring his wife, he pretended to be concerned for his daughter and went after her.
For a fleeting moment, Ava regained her sanity and cried out in worry. Yet, she found herself unable to break free from the security guards' restraint
Once again, she habitually glared at Damien in resentment.
"You're to be blamed! It was all your fault! You knew about them... Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you say something sooner? If you had done so, they wouldn't have... How could you be so cruel!" Ava roared at
the top of her lungs, unable to accept the "equences of her actions. She could only shift the blame onto
