Twin Cupids at Work Daddy Come Home novel Chapter 677

“Julian… it’s all true,” Josh said quietly, his voice heavy. He let out a tired sigh and lowered his head.

Julian’s fist tightened. For a second, it looked like the ground shifted under him.

Josh stepped closer. “Julian…”

Julian lifted his hand to cut him off. “What else did you find?”

Josh hesitated. “There’s also the thing with Helene. She wasn’t forced to break off your engagement or go abroad. There was no hidden reason, no tragedy. When she heard the rumor that you might end up in a coma, she left on her own.”

“While you were unconscious, it was Madeline who took care of you. The engagement… that was Christian’s decision.”

Josh paused, then continued, “As for hiding the kidney donation, that was all Christian. You can probably guess why. After he arranged your marriage, he found out your dad was in a car accident because he was looking for Madeline’s mother.

“Madeline looks like Shelly, so Christian realized she was Shelly’s daughter. He couldn’t find Shelly, so he put all the blame and anger on Madeline…”

Josh went silent.

He didn’t need to say more. Julian already understood.

Everyone remembered how Christian used to dote on Madeline, and then, seemingly overnight, everything changed. Now, Julian finally saw why. He had been grateful to Madeline for saving his life, but when he discovered that Shelly caused Brian’s death, his gratitude turned to bitterness. Suddenly, everything about Madeline reminded him of what he lost.

Every new piece Josh revealed only made Julian’s heart feel heavier.

That wasn’t what Julian had been told back then.

No one ever said Madeline donated a kidney to him. Christian just told him that after Madeline spent months caring for him while he was in a coma, she demanded he marry her, then schemed to drive Helene away.

He’d always been told Madeline was cunning, that she only cared about herself, and that Helene suffered so much she went abroad.

It was such a twisted story. In everyone else’s version, the so-called “good” people did no wrong, while the one who actually gave up a piece of herself—who asked for nothing—became the villain.

Back then, Julian didn’t care for Madeline at all. So he never questioned anything, never tried to find out the truth for himself. Over time, the lies just settled in, and he believed them.

Now he stared down at the documents, his eyes tracing every single word.

The universe felt like it was playing a cruel joke on him.

The woman he once hated… the one he’d resented and pushed away… had given him a kidney. She saved his life.

Julian suddenly stood, chair scraping back behind him. Without another word, he strode out of the room.

George spotted Julian and brightened instantly. “Julian, you’re home,” he called to Christian, who was busy at his desk with his correspondence. “Sir, you were just asking for him, and now he’s here.”

Christian looked up, instantly noticing the anger rolling off Julian. He put his pen down, slow and calm.

“Judging by his mood, he’s here to argue with me. What’s so great about that? You can go.”

George started to protest, then just nodded and slipped out of the room.

Christian gave a weary sigh. He sat down and fixed his gaze on Julian. “Go ahead, say what you came to say.”

Julian slammed the folder onto the table.

Christian glanced at the papers. Recognition flickered in his eyes and his jaw tightened. He knew exactly what was inside.

“Nothing you want to explain?”

“Did Madeline tell you?” Christian sneered. “She’s not as saint as you think. Now that you know, what’s your plan? Did she put you up to this? Does she think that if you stand up to me, I’ll suddenly give you my blessing to be together?”

Julian just stared down at the papers, his jaw set, saying nothing.
