Chapter 509 Exposing The Fake Heiress
Before Josh could fly back to Capitalis, Scarlett called to inform him that Kelly had been taken away.
“Sean’s grandmother said she invested in stock market manipulation and the dating scam under Kelly’s guidance! What exactly is going on?” Scarlett cried hysterically, struggling to catch her breath.
Meanwhile, Lawrence had already gone to the police station to negotiate regarding Kelly’s situation.
“Let’s talk when I get back,” Josh replied, feeling anxious.
If Kelly’s true identity was fake, the test results obtained in front of his parents-where they watched her get her blood drawn and tested-must have been falsified by the doctor.
Scarlett was still crying, and Josh’s mood was bad. After trying to comfort her for a while, he ended the call.
If Kelly’s real identity was questionable, the Pearsons would become a laughingstock in high. society. They had held a grand reunion party for her just at the end of last year, and the entire elite social circle in Capitalis knew that the Pearsons had found their long-lost heiress. who had been missing for nearly twenty years.
Now, they were being told that Kelly’s identity might be fake.
of someone!
So, what was the purpose impersonating a fake heiress?
Abigail was busy working when her a*sistant rushed in with a surprised expression, exclaiming, “The news that Kelly isn’t the heiress of the Pearsons is exposed online! The evidence is compelling. It’s unbelievable!”
Upon hearing this news, Abigail was equally surprised.
“Who exposed this?” she couldn’t help but ask.
“It was posted by someone who has already deactivated their account,” the a*sistant replied.
Abigail opened her computer and checked Instagram.
The test results appeared valid, but how could anyone prove that the test results provided by the anonymous source were genuine and related to Kelly and the Pearsons?

However, most internet users didn’t seem concerned with these technical details. They were more interested in whether Kelly was indeed a fake heiress.
The fact that the information had been exposed, and the other party even paid to trend on social media, meant someone wanted to make the Pearsons pay attention to this matter again.
But who could it be?
Abigail felt it couldn’t be anyone in her immediate circle, as someone with evidence would have gone directly to the Pearsons instead of posting it online.
“If Kelly has no connection to the Pearsons, will Miss Smith come back?” the a*sistant asked eagerly.
Abigail nodded and picked up her phone. “I’ll try calling her.”
The a*sistant watched with anticipation as Abigail dialed Luna’s number. However, the phone was switched off.
“Just look at the time. Why is her phone off?” Abigail mumbled.
The a*sistant also found it strange. “Miss Smith has low battery anxiety. How could her phone be turned off?”
Abigail didn’t know about Luna’s condition, so she couldn’t help but ask, “What is low battery anxiety?”
“Luna doesn’t admit it,” the a*sistant said before quickly moving to Abigail’s side. “But she won’t leave home if her phone’s battery is below 90%. She even carries around a ma*sive portable charger. In the early days of her career, I heard that her phone was once turned off due to low battery while she was making a call to a client. The client thought she was insincere and untrustworthy, and during the second call, she got scolded and lost the cooperation.”
After hearing the a*sistant’s explanation, Abigail felt a sense of unease.
The a*sistant realized that she might have said too much and promptly added, “Miss Quinn, I’ll get back to work.”
“Mm.”
Abigail was well aware that even in the most challenging times, L..Moon didn’t have it as tough as when they were starting from scratch.
She had wasted three meaningless years, while Luna had endured her fair share of hardships during that time.

But now, not only was Abigail unable to reach Sean on the phone, but she also couldn’t get through to Luna.
Her only option was to call Josh.
Josh had just gotten off the plane and learned from Eric that the news about Kelly not being the Pearsons’ heiress had gone viral on the internet.
As soon as Abigail’s call came in, he answered. “Hello, can you reach Luna? I tried calling her, but it says her phone is turned off.”
“I can’t reach her either… I was just about to ask you that,” Abigail replied.
“She’s not in Pendorf, and she’s not in Capitalis either. She suddenly lost contact. Do you have some time? I’d like to talk to you later,” Josh said, his tone unintentionally gentler.
“You can come after work, then.” Abigail agreed.
After making plans with Abigail, Josh headed home promptly.
At this moment, Scarlett was severely affected by the successive bad news at the Pearson Residence. Her emotions were in a terrible state.
Upon seeing Josh return, she immediately began crying, and her eyes were red. “This is definitely all Sean’s doing! He used his grandmother to ensnare your sister, who doesn’t know anything, to take revenge for Abigail and L.Moon!”
“Didn’t you see the news online? Kelly might not be our family member at all,” Josh said. bluntly.
If Kelly wasn’t related to them, where could his sister be?
“What? What nonsense are you spewing? Your sister has caused such a huge incident-
“Mom, I’ve already had Dad personally go to the police station to get her belongings for a DNA test. We’ll have the results within a day!” Josh cut his mother off directly.
Scarlett still couldn’t believe it. “How could this be possible? It must be all because of Sean!”
“Have you lost your mind over Kelly?!” Josh retorted. “Right now, you should be focusing on managing public opinion. Even if it’s confirmed that Kelly is fake, we can’t let public opinion escalate!”
