"What is it?" Baron's mood was foul. He couldn't believe this was truly connected to the Gunn family. Was that bastard Hayes just completely against him? Yulia was visibly intimidated by his anger. Jonas, seeing this, pulled her into his arms. "Baron, don't scare my wife." Baron just rolled his eyes. Jonas ignored him. "It's nothing, really. Just that Rachel's son, Jensen—the CEO of Luke Corp—is Rachel and Hayes' son. Simply put, Jensen is your half-brother, Baron." "You're full of shit!" Baron shot to his feet, grabbing Jonas by the collar, his eyes raging. Yulia, terrified, grabbed Baron's wrist. "Don't get upset! It's true! Rachel was Hayes' woman from the very beginning. He's just a scumbag!" At this point, Yulia stopped calling Hayes "dad." Natalie was even more stunned. Jensen and Baron were... brothers? But they didn't look alike. Then again, Natalie thought, their mannerisms were sometimes similar. Jensen just resembled Rachel more, while Baron took after Mrs. Gunn. Baron, thinking about Jensen's age, nearly ground his teeth to dust. "Jensen is the same age as my wife. That means while my mom was pregnant, Hayes not only had Candice on the side, but he was also fooling around with Rachel? He's really something!" No one spoke. Waylon, seeing the explosive tension, had to speak up. "Well, now that we know the truth, it's one less thing to worry about. Does this mean Hayes was also responsible for my brother's car accident?" Yulia nodded. "Yes. The flash drive has proof Hayes did it. Back then, to keep the Stone family from finding clues and tracing Natalie, he swapped Natalie and Sharon. The Summers family knew. Hayes gave them a huge contract that made them one of Ocean City's elite families. The Summers couple are inherently selfish. Sharon was a daughter, and they had no problem trading her for the family's prosperity. Hayes also told them not to treat Natalie well, promising Sharon would return at eighteen. For the Summers, there was no loss, so they naturally agreed." Hearing this, Natalie—who had suspected the Summers knew but still held onto a sliver of hope—finally understood. She now knew the reason for their eighteen years of coldness. She was just a pawn for their family's advancement. They knew their biological daughter would return, and they simply didn't care if she, Natalie, lived or died. From start to finish, Hayes was only targeting her. Her suffering was the ultimate revenge against the Stone family. "Does my older brother know about this?" Natalie's voice was exceptionally calm, so calm it was frightening. Jonas looked at her. "Your brother isn't much older than you. Candice did the swap for revenge. Hayes cleaned it up to protect the Gunn family and, to muddy the waters, swapped you with the Summers' child. At the time, it was just cleanup. By the time your brother's research project emerged, you were almost eighteen. Hayes probably decided on the spur of the moment to have Sharon contact the Summers, manipulating them into targeting you to 'make it up' to their real daughter." "Of course, everything you endured was meticulously recorded by Hayes and sent to Moses. Because of this, Moses was in and out of the hospital, trying to get out to see you or send a message to the Stone family. But his department is high-security; he couldn't see anyone before the project was done. This spurred him on, and he completed the project—which should have taken years—early this year. But he worked himself to collapse. He's currently in a coma, being treated at the secure department's hospital." Waylon and Ruby shot to their feet. "How is Moses now?""Still in a coma." Baron knew Jonas's family background. He knew this information must be true.
