Chapter 440 Kill Her
It was only then did Christina realized what was going on. They’re so evil! Anya and Elizabeth tried to use such a despicable trick to make me humiliate myself in public!
With that in mind, Christina lifted her gaze and met Anya’s. She then approached the latter and sneered, “That’s a taste of your own medicine”
“Just you wait, Christina. This is not over” Anya grumbled and left.
After the commotion, the main event started.
With a birthday song playing in the background, the crowd slowly moved toward Azure..
Right then, Azure’s a*sistant said to Christina, “Mrs. Lazuli is asking for you. Please go to her.”
Christina nodded, walked toward Azure, and stood beside her.
Once the birthday song ended, the crowd urged, “Make a wish! Make a wish!”
Azure smiled and said, “Thank you for celebrating my birthday with me, everyone. I’m thrilled because not only is today my birthday, but I’ve also found my biological granddaughter!”
The crowd was puzzled. We never heard anything about Mrs. Lazuli having another granddaughter.
Christina’s heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Azure in baillement.
Right then, Azure shifted her gaze toward Christina and said, “My granddaughter is standing next to me. She’s Christina!”
Everyone at the scene was stupefied. What? That girl is so lucky! Who knew she could be an heiress of the almighty Gibson family? She’s set for life!
Meanwhile, Christina was utterly stunned. Is this a joke?
“Mrs. Lazuli, could there have been a mistake?” Christina asked in disbelief. Since when have I become an heiress of the Gibson family?
However, the elderly lady replied firmly and calmly, “I didn’t make a mistake. I did a paternity test, and it’s true. You’re my granddaughter!”
Not only did Azure do a paternity test, but she also looked into what had happened back then. Christina was definitely her granddaughter.
Before Christina could question Azure further, the crowd congratulated the older woman by saying. “Congratulations, Mrs. Lazuli! That’s another good news to celebrate today! From now on, you’ll have another granddaughter to share the happiness of your life with!”
Azure smiled brightly and told her a*sistant to distribute slices of birthday cake to the guests. After that, she brought Christina, who was still in batllement, to the study on the second floor.
Azure closed the door behind them and locked it from the inside.
With a frown, Christina looked at the elderly woman puzzledly and uttered, “I think I deserve an explanation.”

Azure knew Christina wouldn’t believe her, so she took the paternity test report out of her safe and gave it to the latter “If you don’t believe me, you’re more than welcome to have a strand of my hair to conduct another paternity test. The emerald pendant you’re wearing is a family heirloom that belongs to the Gibson family. Back then, I gave it to your mom, and your mom gave it to you.”
Christina stared at the report and fell into deep thought. Mom said I wasn’t a descendant of the Steele family. and she also told me my pendant had something to do with my family background. Did Mom know I was a descendant of the Gibson family right from the start?
Christina took a deep breath and tried to process the information she found hard to believe.
After keeping quiet for quite some time, she lifted her head to reveal an inexplicable look in her eyes. “If I’m a descendant of the Gibson family, why have none of you looked for me prior to this? Why have you only found me now?”
Azure’s gaze darkened, and she uttered flatly. “The nurse mistaken your identity back then. In order to not upset your mom, your dad adopted a baby boy from the orphanage. I only found out about this a while. after. Once I learned about what had happened, I searched for you. However, despite years of effort, nothing came up… When I finally found you, I was eager to acknowledge you,”
Her eyes turned gloomy when she recalled the past.
“Where are my parents, then?” Mixed emotions filled Christina as she gripped the paternity test report. _tightly. Why didn’t I see them during the birthday banquet?
Azure frowned deeply as her painful memories came back to haunt her. “Quite a few years ago, your parents were caught in a landslide, and your mom died protecting your dad. Your dad became crippled. and he’s now in a wheelchair. Therefore, he doesn’t like attending social events.”
Christina’s face went pale when she heard those words. I thought I could reunite with my family, and I pictured a joyful scene. This is not what I had in mind.
She stood frozen on the spot for some time. By the time she came back to her senses, her legs had already. gone numb. “So… Where’s Dad now? May I see him?”
“He’s in the room on the third floor,” Azure replied, her voice in a whisper.
Christina hesitated for a while before turning around to leave the study. Although the stairs to the third. floor were only a dozen steps, it felt like forever for her.
Memories from the past were flashing across her mind as she walked up the stairs.
Finally, she arrived in front of a door that was left open. The lights were dim, but she could clearly see the man in a wheelchair inside the room. Instead of looking old and haggard due to his age, the man looked mature and steady.
When Christina met the man’s gaze, she couldn’t help gasping.
Prior to that, she always thought she didn’t look similar to Gideon or Sharon, but she never thought too much about it.
At that moment, however, she was shocked to see how similar her facial features were to the man’s.
Timothy Gibson was also stunned. After staring back at Christina for some time, he uttered in his hoarse voice, “Come here, my daughter.”

Christina walked into the room and kneeled next to his legs. “D-Dad,” she stammered.
“Oh. My beloved daughter…”
The two hugged each other tightly for a long while. Time seemed to slip away unnoticed, and they remained like this until the moonlight grew deeper and hazier.
Timothy then wiped her tears away and said, “It’s great I’ve finally found you. I thought I would never see
you again.”
Christina sniffled and nodded.
After that, he patted her head and her shoulders before saying gently. “It’s late. I’ll get the driver to send you home. Would you visit me again tomorrow?”
“Sure.” Christina rose to her feet, wiped away her tears, and said, “I’ll make a move, Dad…
With that, she went downstairs. The driver was waiting for her, and he opened the car door for her to bring her home.
Meanwhile, Anya was standing on the balcony on the second floor, staring at the car as it drove off. With a murderous look in her eyes, she grumbled, “Christina is indeed a capable woman. I wonder what she told Grandma. Why did Grandma arrange for a car to send her home?”
Yerek swirled his wine and replied in a deep and vicious tone, “Well, she’s a part of the Gibson family now,
after all.”
“Yerck, Grandma will kick you out of the Gibson family now that Christina is back. Why didn’t you kill her before Grandma could find her?” Anya had thought about that repeatedly. Everything was wonderful in the Gibson family until Christina appeared and messed things up.
