Under his mother’s confused gaze, he spoke with earnest sincerity.
“Mom, once you see her, you’ll understand everything.”
Jenna tried to intervene, but Maximilian was faster.
“Lyra, you can come out now.”
At his words, the door of the Rolls–Royce opened, and another person stepped out.
It was my new beastman handler, Lyra.
After a makeover, she looked even more like Mrs. Graves.
Everyone present–the Graves parents, the butler, the staff–was frozen in shock.
The System was a wall of question marks.

Only Jenna’s face turned deathly pale, her nails digging so deep into her palms that they must have drawn blood.
She knew.
As the female lead, Jenna Croft had a remarkably strong heart.
Even with Lyra’s appearance, she could still argue, desperately trying to divert attention.
“Brother, I never wanted to take anything from you. I just want what’s rightfully mine. Why can’t you even allow me that? I know you were close to the fake heiress. I know you don’t care that she isn’t your real sister. And I know you like Ms. Rhimes, so you can’t stand me. But brother, I’m your real sister!”
At this point, Jenna started to choke up.
“Brother! Why would you hire an imposter to steal my identity? To get rid of me, to avenge your girlfriend and the fake sister, do you really have to be so cruel?”
Her cries grew louder, her tears falling like broken pearls.
She was a picture of heartbreak.
Her words were so sincere, as if she were truly a victim, abandoned by her own brother.

She was skillfully twisting the narrative.
If Lyra didn’t look so much like the Graves parents, and if I didn’t have three DNA reports in my hand, I might have even been swayed.
But the truth doesn’t lie.
I presented the reports.
The bold, red letters were clear, irrefutable proof of Lyra’s identity.
If Lyra was the real one, then Jenna’s identity was in question.
The DNA reports were a devastating blow. Even the quick–witted Jenna was at a loss for words.
In the end, she feigned a faint, whispering as she fell, “Brother, why do you hate me so much?”
A foolish move.
If there were a blood connection, she might have been able to play the sympathy card.
But there wasn’t.
