Chapter 302 Cordelia Confesses
Sebastian moved fast, dragging Joyce along, and then kicked Isabella's wheelchair.
The wheelchair flipped over in a flash. Isabella tumbled out, rolling a few times on the ground. She lay there, groaning in pain.
Sebastian quickly turned to Joyce, his eyes full of worry. "Joyce, are you hurt?"
Joyce shook her head. "No, just a bit shaken. Our baby got a little scared."
"Let's go see the doctor again."
"No need, the baby should be fine. You should check on Isabella."
Isabella was already being held down by the bodyguards. She looked like a trapped animal, sitting in the wheelchair.
Sebastian walked over, bent down, and stared at her. His eyes were cold, and his voice had no sympathy. "Isabella, do you know why I paid for your treatment? Because you haven't owned up to your mistakes. Now that you're better, you can go to prison and reunite with your mom."
Hearing this, Isabella panicked. She shook her head frantically. "Sebastian, I can't take care of myself. I can't go there."
Sebastian sneered, "If not there, then where? Your parents are both in prison. I think they'll take good care of you. You can have a family reunion there."
After saying this, he straightened up and looked at Dominic behind him. "Send her to prison. Have Julian file charges against her. I want her to spend the rest of her life in prison."
Dominic nodded. "Yes, I'll handle it."
Isabella was dragged away by two bodyguards. She kept wailing, drawing a crowd of onlookers.
Seeing this, Joyce sighed. "If she hadn't caused trouble today, were you planning to let her go?"
Sebastian gently stroked her head. "No, I will never forget the harm she caused you. I just wanted her to recover so she couldn't use illness as an excuse to escape from prison."
Joyce lowered her eyes slightly. "Why do some people never repent? Isabella is like that, and so is Cordelia. They really are alike."
"Alright, let's not worry about her. Let's go home."
The two of them left the hospital hand in hand.
Isabella was sent to prison.
A hideous-looking person in a wheelchair arrived, catching everyone's attention in the prison.
Someone recognized Isabella and pointed at her. "That's the woman who escaped from prison and tried to kill Joyce. It's hilarious that she ended up looking like this after the fire." Everyone burst into laughter.
Isabella, already defiant, got angry and tried to ram her wheelchair into them. But before her wheelchair could hit anyone, a strong woman kicked it over. Then came a series of punches and kicks.
At that moment, Cordelia, who was being interrogated, walked in. She had seen Isabella's photo on Sebastian's phone.
Despite Isabella's burns, her eyes hadn't changed. Cordelia immediately recognized her.
Cordelia rushed over like a madwoman. She begged, "Please stop hitting her. She'll die if you keep hitting her."

Someone pointed at Cordelia. "Do you know this wretched cripple?"
Cordelia nodded repeatedly. "Yes, I know her."
"Fine, then you take care of her. Don't let her soil the place. If she has an accident, we'll beat her every time."
"Okay, I'll take care of her." Cordelia immediately held Isabella in her arms, tears streaming down her face. She choked out, "Isabella, my daughter, how did you end up like this? It's all my fault. I dragged you into this." Isabella still wouldn't acknowledge Cordelia as her mom. She shoved Cordelia away. "Get lost, you're not my mom!"
"Isabella, whether you admit it or not, I'm your mother. Don't worry, I'll take care of you and make sure you don't suffer."
A few days later, Sebastian got a call from the prison. Cordelia had something to tell him. His eyes darkened a bit.
Looked like his plan was working. Isabella was Cordelia's weak spot. For Isabella's sake, Cordelia, who had refused to spill the truth, was finally ready to talk.
Sebastian and Julian drove to the prison.
The moment Cordelia saw Sebastian, tears streamed down her face. "Sebastian, I'll tell you everything you want to know, as long as you arrange a separate cell for me and Isabella. I'll take care of her. She can't take care of herself and soils herself. Every time she loses control, those women beat her. I can't stand it anymore. Please save her. After all, she's your sister."
Hearing the last part, Sebastian darkened his expression. "You knew she was related to me by blood, yet you still wanted us to get married. What were you thinking?"

Cordelia shook her head. "I didn't want to either. He forced me. He said if you married Isabella, he could help me secure my position in the Winters Family and control the Vale Family and Taylor Family. He's a devil who doesn't care if you're siblings." "Who is he?"
Cordelia shook her head again. "Every time I saw him, he was in a wheelchair, wearing a black cloak with a hat covering half his face. I couldn't see who he was, but I know he wants the entire Winters Family and wants you dead." Hearing this, Sebastian clenched his fist tightly. He asked coldly, "Who is the real Cordelia, you or Elise?"
Cordelia wiped her tears and said, "Elise was the one dating Derek. I was just a barmaid. One day, someone took a fancy to me, and they locked me in a room, showing me videos of Elise at different times. They made me imitate her behavior, writing, and design. Later, they gave me plastic surgery to make me look like Cordelia.
"They had me approach Derek. After a few encounters, Derek didn't suspect anything. So, a month after Derek and Cordelia got married, they replaced Elise with me.
"They locked Elise up and tortured her, making her lose her memory. One day, she escaped by chance, and Derek rescued her, mistaking her for me. They even had sex.
"Then Elise got pregnant with Leonard. I was worried she'd regain her memory, so I had someone burn her to death."
Cordelia confessed to all her crimes. She admitted to harming Elise, hunting down Elise and Leonard, and being a stand-in.
All the questions seemed to be answered, but Sebastian didn't feel any relief. The answers were flawless, but they made him uneasy. He didn't know what was wrong, but he felt that the truth was more than this.
Based on Cordelia's information, the police gathered evidence. It proved she was telling the truth.
But somehow, the news got leaked. A post about the Winters Group president's biological mother being a stand-in quickly spread across the internet. Sebastian was also labeled an illegitimate child.
The Winters Group shareholders collectively protested, demanding Sebastian step down as president. At that moment, he realized why he felt something was wrong with Cordelia's confession. The truth was right there.
