She made it as if she had been deep in thought to make a difficult decision. After a brief pause, she lifted her
head again.
“Mom, Milo must have his reasons for doing this. | support his decision.”
At that moment. Milo had been watching her the entire time. When Leah looked up for gaze met his
deep unreadable eyes.
Her heart skipped a beat. Still, she forced a smile onto her pale face, trying her best to appear composed. “Let's
go with Milo’s plan.”
Milo let out a long sigh. “Leah, I'm relieved to hear that After everything, it wasn’t in vain that everyone has
cared for you so much.”
“Actually, I'd also like to take this opportunity to formally apologize to Charmaine. After all, this whole mess
started because of me
You silly child, what does this have to do with you? It’s Bennett who was too arrogant, thinking he was above
everyone else!”

Olympia patted her hand to comfort her. “Bennett has already gotten what he deserves. His company is as good
as ruined-it’s all his own doing. Don’t think about it anymore.”
Leah, who still didn’t know the full situation, flinched. “What happened to his company?”
Jonah, who had been quiet until now, spoke up. “Bennett's company has been struggling due to poor
management. The financial situation is severe, and most of his key personnel and employees have already
resigned. All that’s left is an empty shell. His minor shareholders have sold off their stakes, and the company
won't hold out for much longer.”
Pausing for a moment, Jonah hesitated before adding. My people just received the news-someone bought up all
of the scattered shares and held an emergency shareholders’ meeting today. They voted to remove Bennett from
his position... and appointed a janitor to take over the company.”
Milo burst into laughter, utterly delighted. “A janitor? Hahaha! Who cup with such a twisted plan to torment
Bennett? That's brutal!”
Leah's expression turned utterly grim.
No wonder Bennett had sent those furious messages.
At this moment, he probably hated her to death.
Jonah shook his head. “We haven't confirmed anything yet, but I'd guess it was the Crosses.”
Olytopia frowned myr? What does this have to do with him?”
Of course, it's related, Jonah said. “Charmaine is dating Emyr now. Bennett bullied his girlfriend-it’s only natural
for Emyr to take revenge.

“Enough,” Willard’s deep voice interrupted. “We don’t need to keep discussing that family’s business in the
future. They're not worth our time.”
Milo pulled a face. “Fine. Then it’s settled. Ill book a hotel and arrange a meeting with Charmaine. No matter
what she says, we'll take it.”
His expression darkened. “After all... this was all our fault”
Willard didn’t argue. His silence was tacit approval.
Seeing this, Milo’s brows eased, and a hint of happiness appeared on his face.
Their parents were finally willing to give Charmaine another chance. That was a good sign.
After enduring the rest of dinner. Leah was just about to head upstairs when she noticed Milo answering a phone
call. Strangely, he lowered his voice and moved away, as if trying to keep the conversation privatel
A sense of unease gripped her. She followed him without thinking.
At the end of the hallway, Milo leaned lazily against the wall with his phone pressed to his ear. “How's the
investigation going?” he asked.

“Cut the crap. Keep searching. With all these coincidences piling up, | refuse to believe that the baby swap back
then was just an accident.”
Leah gasped and clamped a hand over her mouth to stop any sound from escaping.
Milo is investigating the hospital's baby swap incident?
Her heart pounded violently.
She turned and fled back to her room, slamming the door shut and locking it behind her.
She rushed into the bathroom and locked that door, enclosing herself in the safest space she could find.
This time, she didn’t even care about the usual fear creeping up her spine.
With trembling fingers, she quickly dialed Bennett's number.
The moment he picked up. Leah's voice was low and urgent. “Something’s wrong! Milo is looking into the baby
swap incident!”
Bennett, who had been prepared to unleash his fury, suddenly choked on his words. “What did you sav
