Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 816:

After a long silence, she smiled, “Actually, you two make a perfect match.”

Hearing this, Connor felt a wave of relief, the pain from his earlier beating fading away.

But Marissa quickly brought them back to reality. “Grandma, the marriage certificate was a mistake. I need to divorce Connor as soon as possible. I hope you can understand our situation.”

Arabella sighed and said, “Marissa, I had always hoped Tiffany would become my granddaughter-in-law. But now that you and Connor have already got married, and he clearly cares foryou deeply, why not stay married to him? I can’t support your decision to divorce.”

Connor felt a surge of relief at her words. In that moment, he realized that his grandmother’s earlier outburst wasn’t just about anger—it was her way of helping him win over Marissa. She was trying to soften Marissa s heart.

But Marissa shook her head. “No, Grandma. You must have overheard our conversation earlier. Lawrence and Lindsay’s parents are Tiffany and Connor. They’re a family, and I can’t interfere with that.”

Arabella’s expression grew serious. “Are you certain that Tiffany gave birth to those children? I’ve spent a lot of time with her, and I’m confident she was never pregnant. She was a virgin. ‘

Marissa was suddenly confused. “But, Grandma, you’ve always treated them as Tiffany’s children, haven’t you? If you’re certain she never gave birth, why did you accept the kids?”

Arabella smiled knowingly. ‘”I’m sure she didn’t give birth to a child, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t have them

through other means. I once thought that perhaps Lawrence and Lindsay were the result of Tiffany using a surrogate. Don ‘t assume that just because I’m over 90, I’m stuck in the past. My mind is quite modern. I’m well aware of what’s possible with today’s technology.” Marissa nodded, her respect for Arabella deepening.

Despite her age, Arabella was impressively open-minded. After a brief pause, Marissa continued, “Grandma, even if someone used Connor’s and Tiffany’s genes to create the children through technology, and even if both of them were merely victims in this situation, they’re still connected to the kids by blood. No matter what they choose to do in the future, I have to step aside. This marriage has to end. Please, try to understand. ”

As Marissa spoke, a wave of anxiety washed over Connor, leaving his thoughts in a tangled mess.

On one hand, the idea of having two biological kids filled him with joy. He had genuinely grown attached to Lawrence and Lindsay during their time together, and it felt like he’d been blessed with two beautiful gifts today.

But on the other hand, he was struggling with Marissa’s firm insistence that Lawrence and Lindsay weren’t her children, making it hard for him to stand his ground. It felt like he was losing her, and that hurt more than he cared to admit.

Arabella was wrestling with her own feelings too. She was over the moon to finally have a grandson and granddaughter, but the question of who their mother was left her feeling unsettled.

“Marissa,” she asked carefully, “are you absolutely certain that Lawrence and Lindsay are Tiffany’s children, not yours?”

“Absolutely,” Marissa replied without hesitation. “My life has always been mine. I can’t just lose my eggs like that. Tiffany spent years under someone else’s control; maybe that’s why she lost hers.”

Arabella sighed softly, feeling a bit disappointed. She had always harbored a soft spot for Tiffany and once dreamed of welcoming her into the family.
