Chapter 203: She Still Holds a Secret
Before Elara Don could react, someone in the crowd removed the masks from the faces of the two children.
Their identical little faces were instantly revealed beyond doubt.
Silence fell around them.
Apart from the rumbling of cars not far away, everyone surrounding Elara Don and her children stared wide-eyed at the two kids.
"How come they look exactly alike?"
"What beautiful twins!"
"Elara Don, are these two your sons?"
"Elara Don, didn’t you say you only had one son? How come there’s another one?"
"..."
Everyone was bombarding her with questions.
Elara Don was furious and restless.
She forcefully pushed away the two reporters who were in front, angrily shouting, "Stop filming! They’re just kids, please show some decency for your own children’s sake."
It was truly maddening!
They could slander her, but she didn’t want her children tangled up in it!
The main thing was, the children’s identity was a secret now!
Filled with rage, Elara Don hurriedly pulled the two kids and got into a taxi.
Maybe they saw that she was really angry.
Or maybe because of what she said, several reporters were momentarily stunned.
By the time they thought to chase after her, the taxi had already shot off like an arrow from a string.
"What’s going on here? Why does Elara Don have a pair of twin sons?"
"That’s not right, I once had the chance to meet Damon Hawke’s son, and I remember he looked just like this!"
"No way? Are you saying one of the kids just now was Damon Hawke’s?"
"But those two kids, anyone can see they’re twins."
"..."
The reporters were puzzled beyond words.
Although they couldn’t figure it out, it didn’t stop them from editing the footage they captured and posting it online.
...
The Don Family.
Victoria Don had just come back from the set and was resting on the couch, scrolling through the news.
When she saw a video that was trending online, her previously bored expression suddenly jolted.
She sat up straight, staring wide-eyed at her phone, her face turning pale.
What the hell!
How did Elara Don end up trending again?
And accompanying her on the trending list were her two sons!
Elara Don suddenly appears with twin sons!
Everyone is speculating about who Elara Don’s sons are.
Some netizens, letting their imagination run wild, claim that Elara Don had sinister intentions, had an affair with a man, and gave birth to a stillborn.
Then she secretly took one of Victoria Don’s newborn twins home to raise.
Some are calling out to Damon Hawke, urging him to harshly punish the child trafficker Elara Don!
Victoria Don’s complexion changed rapidly.
It’s over!
If this news reaches Damon Hawke’s ears, he will definitely find out the truth.
It will all be over for her then!
What to do?
Victoria Don’s hands trembled with fear.
Thinking of someone, she quickly dialed Cole Hawke’s number.
The news mustn’t spread.
Damon Hawke mustn’t find out about this.
She had to ask Cole Hawke for help.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Cole, please help me, something big has happened!"
Victoria Don urgently explained the situation with the news to Cole Hawke.
Cole Hawke pondered for a moment, "I see, I’ll handle it."
"Mr. Cole, I’m counting on you."
Victoria Don thanked him profusely and hung up the phone.
It felt as if a heavy hammer was pounding on her heart.
Though Cole Hawke promised to take care of it, her heart didn’t settle.
The news was already trending.
With so many people in Sea City, someone was bound to see it.
Especially Damon Hawke’s friends.
The truth from back then couldn’t possibly stay hidden.
Sooner or later, Damon Hawke would find out that Elara Don had his two sons for him.
And she, Victoria Don, was merely an impostor!
What to do?
Victoria Don paced around anxiously like an ant on a hot pan.
Just then, Troy Don stumbled in, drunk.
He was holding a bottle of liquor.
Seeing Victoria Don at home, Troy Don hiccuped, mumbling, "Vivi, you’re home? Where’s your mom?"
Victoria Don, upset and agitated, was even more annoyed by the smell of alcohol wafting through the room.
"My mom went abroad to relax, Dad, can’t you drink a little less?"
Ever since her mom was released, she had been despondent.
So Victoria had been making arrangements for her to go abroad these past few days.
After all, her mom had suffered such humiliation because of her, she had to make it up to her.
"The Don Family is about to collapse, and she still has money to go abroad and have fun? Tell her to get back!"
Troy Don threw the bottle to the floor, shouting.
Victoria Don was startled, seeing Troy Don go crazy, her heart full of anxiety and anger.
"Dad, the money for Mom to go abroad was from me. If you have the guts, stop going on drunken rampages at home and find a way to revive the Don Family’s business, that’s what counts!"
Without the backing of the Hawke Group, the Don Family’s business was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Troy Don would constantly nag her to find a way to reconcile with Damon Hawke.
But Damon Hawke didn’t have her in his heart at all. She was lucky enough to hold onto her status in the entertainment industry with a little secret!
She couldn’t hope for anything more!
But now, the secret was about to be exposed.
Her father was still losing himself in his drunken antics.
Once the secret was out, he wouldn’t even have the right to throw drunken fits!
"You want me to revive the Don Family’s business, isn’t that all up to Damon Hawke’s word?"
Troy Don glared at Victoria Don, "Vivi, why are you so useless? Didn’t I tell you to reconcile with Damon Hawke? Then go! What are you doing all day? You have money to send your mom abroad to play, why don’t you give me the money for investment! How did I end up with such a useless daughter like you?"
His words almost made Victoria Don laugh in anger.
He’s obviously not business-savvy, not suited for it.
If it weren’t for her connecting with Damon Hawke in the past, the Don Family’s business would’ve collapsed long ago!
"Yes, I’m useless, so what? Have you thought about your non-biological daughter, Elara Don, whom you kicked out?"
Hearing this, Troy Don plopped onto the sofa, hiccupped, and shouted, "Yeah, I’m just regretting it! Why did I drive Elly out back then? Claire, why isn’t Elly our daughter?"
He really regretted it!
If he hadn’t driven Elara Don out of the house then, perhaps he could rise again with her help now!
Listening to Troy Don’s rambling, Victoria Don’s chest heaved.
Thinking of the news just now, her eyes were filled with jealousy and anxiety.
She envied Elara Don’s good fortune, that she actually managed to sleep with Damon Hawke.
She was even more anxious about the current situation’s disadvantages for her.
What should she do?
How could she preserve the little career she had left?
And avoid being ruined by Damon Hawke!
She was already used to a life of luxury, she couldn’t have nothing!
Something flashed through her mind, she looked towards Troy Don, who was still rambling on the sofa, her eyes lighting up.
Right, she still held a secret.
As long as she used this secret to trade with Elara Don, she could definitely protect the little career she still had!
