Chapter 484 She is Fake
Alexander's question left Daisy speechless.
She stared at Alexander's cold, sharp eyes, not daring to make a sound.
Why did she feel that Alexander was different towards her? Could it be that he was already suspicious?
Daisy stammered, "Alexander, why are you looking at me like that? I heard it from the nurse, is there something wrong?"
Alexander sneered, "No, I just think it's strange that you, who never care about other people's business, suddenly became so nosy."
"That's because Elodie and I are the same age and have the same illness. Maybe it's a feeling of shared suffering."
Alexander stared at her for a few seconds, then said, "When you get better, you should try your luck in the entertainment industry. I think you'd be perfect for it."
Your acting could win an Oscar.
Daisy didn't suspect anything and even smiled, saying, "If you want me to enter the entertainment industry, I will. I'll do whatever you say."
"Alright, you don't have anything to do now, come home with me."
Hearing that Alexander was personally taking her home, Daisy agreed without hesitation.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she walked into the hall, she saw Aaron and Kurt kneeling on the ground.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Alexander had discovered something?
Alexander saw her stop in her tracks, her face pale, and let out a low laugh.
"What are you afraid of? They made a mistake, not you."
Daisy pretended to be very surprised and said, "Weren't they already punished? Do you still not want to forgive them? Or do you think this has something to do with me?"
Alexander's lips curled with a hint of coldness, "Whether it has anything to do with you, we'll find out soon enough."
He walked towards the living room.
When Gilbert saw them come in, he immediately walked over and took Daisy's hand, saying, "My dear, are you alright? You scared me to death."
Daisy smiled affectionately, "Grandpa, I'm fine, thanks to Alexander saving me in time, otherwise, I would have died."
"Don't talk about dying. You're my precious. If you die, I won't be able to live either."
Hearing Gilbert say this, Daisy's eyes immediately reddened.
She hugged Gilbert and said, "Grandpa, I don't want to leave you either. Alexander can find a heart for others, I'm sure he can find one for me too. I believe in him."
Mentioning this, Gilbert's eyes immediately turned cold.
He looked at Alexander and said, "You ungrateful son, you had a heart but didn't give it to Daisy first, and gave it to someone else instead, despite how good she is to you."
Alexander smiled, "Is Daisy good to me? I didn't notice."
"You bastard, if it weren't for Daisy agreeing to take over the company, would you be able to pursue your medical dream? She started working at the company at such a young age, while you spent all your time either working or hanging out in bars, achieving nothing."
"Fine, I'll listen to you from now on. I'll take over the Cross Family business starting tomorrow."
This statement not only surprised Gilbert but also left Daisy in disbelief.
"Alexander, you go pursue your dreams. Once I have the surgery, I can manage the company. Mom and Dad are getting old, I'll let them enjoy their retirement."
Hearing Daisy say this, Alexander gave her a cold glance.
In a cold voice, he said, "You want the Cross Family's assets that badly?"
Alexander's words left everyone stunned.
Daisy felt a sharp pain in her heart and pretended to be very innocent, saying, "I don't, I just want to help you manage it."
"That's not necessary, someone else will help me manage it."
At this moment, Philip and Tessa walked in from outside.
Seeing the scene in the hall, they immediately asked, "Alexander, why did you call us back in such a hurry? And why did you bring Daisy home right after she had an attack, instead of letting her stay in the hospital for a few more days?"
Alexander's lips curled into a smile, "With Daisy's important status, how could she miss this good show?"
After saying this, he walked over to Aaron, squatted down, and looked at him.
His lips curled into a cold smile, like a knife deeply piercing Aaron's chest.
Aaron was so scared that he kept backing away, stammering, "Mr. Alexander Cross, I did this for Ms. Daisy Cross. You don't care about her life, but she is like a daughter to me. I couldn't bear to see her miss such a good opportunity.
So I had Cameron kidnap Elodie. As long as she died, you would give the heart to Ms. Daisy Cross.
This way, Mr. Gilbert Cross wouldn't lose her.
I know what I did was illegal, and I'm willing to accept the punishment."
Hearing these words, Gilbert slammed the table, "Fool! Don't you know that's illegal? If Elodie had died, you would have committed murder and would go to prison."
Aaron said, "I don't care, as long as I can save Ms. Daisy Cross, I don't care if I die."
Daisy immediately ran over, knelt on the ground, and pleaded, "Alexander, Elodie is fine, right? Please forgive Aaron, he did it for my sake. I don't want him to go to prison."
Daisy said this while crying.
Philip, feeling sorry for her, immediately pulled her up from the ground.
"Dear, get up quickly, you're still sick. Don't make your grandpa and me worry."
Daisy threw herself into Philip's arms, crying, "Dad, I might as well die. This way, I won't drag Aaron down. My illness has worried you since I was little. I feel like I've been a burden to you. Now I've caused Aaron to go to prison.
If Aaron really goes to prison, I'll be heartbroken."
Philip gently patted her head and said, "Don't be afraid, we'll find out the situation. Maybe it's not that serious."
Hearing these words, Alexander sneered.
He looked at Aaron's pale face and asked in a deep voice, "I can let this go, as long as you answer a few questions honestly."
Aaron immediately nodded, "Okay, I'll tell the truth no matter what the questions are."
"The paternity test for Daisy back then, you arranged it, right?"
Hearing this question, Aaron's heart tightened.
He stammered, "Yes, it was me. I took her and Mr. Philip Cross's blood samples to the testing center."
Alexander's lips curled, "So you swapped my dad's blood sample with yours, and let your daughter pretend to be the Cross Family's daughter?"
This statement was like a thunderbolt thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up waves.
Not only was Aaron shocked, but everyone in the Cross Family looked at Alexander in disbelief.
Gilbert immediately asked, "What are you saying? How could Daisy be Aaron's daughter?"
Philip also chimed in, "Such a big thing, how could Aaron do it? He's always been loyal to us."
Alexander took a report from his assistant and handed it to Philip, saying, "This is the paternity report for Aaron and Daisy. Back then, he swapped your blood sample and placed his illegitimate daughter with another woman in our family.
We've all been deceived by them all these years."
Seeing this report, Philip and Tessa were both shocked.
Gilbert was even more pained, shedding tears, "If Daisy isn't my granddaughter, then where is my real granddaughter?"
