The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 515

Anyone who spent enough time in business would sense there was something off about all this. Queenie sensed it immediately.

“I really don’t know. They said the hospital made a mistake, but I had people look into it,” Pandora said. She didn’t finish her thought, but the look on her face made it clear there was more to the story.

“You didn’t do anything about it?” Queenie was genuinely shocked.

Her own child, switched at birth... Knowing Pandora, there was no way she’d let something like that slide without a fight.

Pandora just smiled. “No, I let it go. In the end, didn’t our family come out ahead?”

She chuckled. “Their daughter spent eighteen years with me, living in the countryside, while my Claire got eighteen years of the good life as a wealthy heiress.”

“And anyway, even if Claire didn’t receive much love in the James family, they made sure she never went without. She had good food, nice clothes, the best education.”

“Claire’s a wonderful young woman. I don’t see the need to hold a grudge.”

Queenie was skeptical. She was sure Pandora had her reasons. Pandora was not someone who simply let things go.

Raising her granddaughter herself would have made such a difference. There was so much she could have taught her, so many memories and lessons. Would being raised by strangers ever compare?

“So why did you stay in the countryside all these years? Don’t tell me you just gave up your whole family’s property?”

That thought struck Queenie as strange. Something wasn’t right.

Pandora’s expression stayed calm. “I just got used to the quiet out there and settled into life in the old house.”

Queenie got the message and didn’t ask any more. Pandora had always been mysterious. She was tough when she was young, and even more impressive now. Best not to get involved.

Claire hung around with Jennifer until the food was ready to go, then came back to the private dining room.
