âSilence!â
Lucinda cast a cold glance at Valerie.
âI am addressing Graham.
You donât need to speak for him.
â
Valerie glared at Lucinda in anger but refrained from saying anything further.
Lucinda turned her attention back to Graham, extracting another document from her bag and hurling it towards him.
âThis is the evidence Cyrus recently uncovered.
It shows that Florrie was with Dad on the day of his accident! She pushed him down the stairs when he was absorbed in reading the paternity test result!â
The mention of this incident brought a pang of pain to Lucindaâs heart.
Tears welled up in her eyes, her voice trembling.
âHow much do you know about this? Did you order her to do it?â
Florrie, standing offstage, lowered her head, overcome with guilt, attempting to shrink into the background.
Graham continued to stare at Lucinda, but he remained silent.
In the dim light, his expression was indiscernible, leaving Lucinda wondering about his thoughts.
Undeterred, Lucinda continued her accusations.
âYou repeatedly delayed my signing of the inheritance right under the pretense of Dadâs grave condition, yet you rushed to reveal Valerieâs âtrue identityâ as a Simmons and let her, an illegitimate daughter, inherit everything!
What on earth are you thinking? Graham, youâve looked after me for so many years.
Was your love and care just an act?â
Trembling, Graham called out in a hoarse voice, âLucindaâ¦â
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Lucinda said coldly, âI donât care if you know all these details or not.
I will never forgive you!
Furthermore, since Dad is currently in a coma, I will assume the role of the head of the Simmons family.
It is not up to you whether you can obtain the familyâs wealth!â
Lucinda then turned to Hilliard, Cyrus, and Nathan.
âKeep a close eye on Florrie and Valerie.
Donât let them escape.
I will deal with them later.
â
With that, she shifted her gaze back to Graham and said, âCome with Paoâ
Without uttering a word, Graham followed her silently as they entered the bedroom where Lucinda had once resided.
Once the door closed, he positioned himself near the entrance, awaiting Lucindaâs words.
Feeling a sense of exhaustion after standing for so long, Lucinda sat on the edge of the bed, her gaze fixed on Graham from a distance.
âI want to speak to you alone.
There is something I need to confirm.
