The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 717

Cindy knew very well that she wasn't Latham's biological daughter. If he decided to kick her out, she would have nowhere to go.

Her only option would be Lance's small apartment, but she was terrified of that!

Octavia was her only source of security!

If her mother couldn't get out, what would she do?

At that moment, Cindy realized that her biological mother was far more important than Fallon.

Fallon going to jail didn't really affect her.

She could still live a comfortable life.

But with Octavia locked up, her future would be an absolute mess.

"You're overthinking this. Whoever wants that title can have it."

Claire looked at Cindy as if she were an idiot.

"Do I look like I give a damn about the James family anymore?"

"And stop blaming me for everything. I don't have the power to make the police arrest Octavia for no reason."

"You don't need to panic so much. If she didn't commit a crime and is just assisting with the investigation, she should be released soon."

On the flip side, if Octavia had actually broken the law, it was highly unlikely she'd be coming out.

Claire guessed there was a hidden truth behind Fallon's car accident from years ago.

The dynamic between the two women was certainly something. Octavia used a car crash to kill Fallon's unborn child and ensured she could never get pregnant again.

In return, Fallon retaliated with another car accident, nearly taking the life of Octavia's son.

If she and Mary hadn't performed the surgery, Lance wouldn't have even kept his leg.

Seeing him in a wheelchair would have undoubtedly broken Octavia's heart.

The real root cause behind the endless feud between these two women was Latham.

Claire was genuinely puzzled as to why neither of them ever went straight after Latham.

Did they actually both love him that much?
