When Rachel said that, Loretta finally let out a breath.

“If it’s not about me, then why did you come? The best arrangement between us is to die and never see each
other again.”
“Loretta, | have my reasons for finding you. | heard your son dated Natalie for five years-true or not?”
Jensen's eyes narrowed. Coming for Natalie? Who was this Rachel?
Loretta hadn't expected the question about Natalie and frowned slightly. “That girl did date my son for five
years, but she’s petty and ill-tempered-hardly suitable to enter the Luke family as a daughter-in-law. Do you
have a grudge with her?”
Loretta still burned to settle scores with Natalie after how Natalie had humiliated her. If Jensen hadn't held her
back, she would never have let Natalie off so easily. Now that Rachel asked about Natalie, Loretta’s expression
brightened.
“If you have a grudge against that brat, maybe | can help,” Loretta offered.

Rachel’s voice went low. “Help? What can you do? She was with your son five years; you never broke her.
Besides, her current status isn’t something you can mess with.”
“Status? What status? She's just a designer. There are designers everywhere these days. Maybe she’s famous
now, but if | wanted her gone, | have ways.” Loretta snorted, full of contempt.
Rachel only gave a cold smile. “If you really had the means, she wouldn't still be alive. Loretta, you know better
than anyone what made you who you are. The Stone family and the Summers family are looking into the baby
swap from years ago. The Summers family aren’t easily frightened-so do you think the Stone family might
uncover something?”
“What did you say? The Stone family? Which Stone family?” Loretta suddenly panicked.
Rachel replied calmly, “How many Stone families are there in the world that would make your Luke family wary?”
“That's impossible. Why would the Stone family investigate the Summers family’s baby-swap case?” Loretta’s
face changed.
Rachel watched her with growing impatience. “Idiot. Why does Natalie go by the nNatalie
do think?”

Loretta sank down on the edge of the bed. “Natalie? Are you saying she’s a Stone family child?”
“What else could it be?”
“How could that be? How could a Stone family child have been born at that small hospital over twenty years
ago?” Loretta refused to believe it.
Rachel ignored Loretta’s shocked face and crumbling composure. “Back then, Ruby was competing in a major
contest here in Ocean City and was frightened into early labor. You should remember: that summer, it rained for
three days straight, flooding many roads. Mrs. Stone had no choice but to deliver at the nearest hospital-the
shospital you delivered at.”
At those words, Loretta’s face went completely white. “No way. That's too much of a coincidence. Even if Mrs.
Stone had gone to that hospital, the Stone family’s influence would never allow strangers near her.”
“Others couldn't, but | could. That's why | made a deal with you back then, isn’t it? You benefited from it then-
now it’s tyou do something for me.” Rachel’s voice was hard.
Jensen's eyes narrowed sharply. He'd heard that the Summers family had gone to the countryside recently to
investigate the baby swap involving Natalie and Sharon. They hadn't returned yet, and the rural couple from that
treportedly died under unusual circumstances. Jensen hadn't personally looked into it, but he'd sent people
to follow-so he knew Natalie and the Stone family were investigating.
He had never imagined the swap might be connected to his mother. And who exactly was this Rachel? From what
she said, the swap implicated Rachel-and his mother knew about it.
His mind raced.
Loretta, however, shook her head when Rachel finished. “Rachel, the deal we made back then was shameful,
sure, but the baby swap wasn’t my doing. If you plan to use that to threaten me,. you've picked the wrong
target. My husband is dead; my son runs the house now.”
Rachel smiled coldly. “Is that so? Your son may favor you, but what about the old guards of the Luke family?
What about those at Luke Corp who've been waiting to pull him down? Once they learn what happened back
then, how long do you think your son will keep his position as CEO? Loretta, don’t imagine your good days will
last forever. Do you really think you can live like this forever?”
