Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 806

The people nearby immediately clamped a hand over his mouth, hissing, “Don’t ask who he is. All you need to know is that this man works closely with the country’s top leaders!”

“My God, that’s who he is?”

“And there was no warning at all…”

The weight of Neville Parsons’s reputation left many in the room stunned.

Even Camila Davis was caught off guard when she spotted him.

She’d always known Mr. Parsons wasn’t just anyone, and she’d heard whispers about the Extraordinary Special Forces Team. But the rest? That was news to her.

No wonder Dennis Williams had insisted she come along to help—he had the kind of influence that could bend the will of the most powerful families.

Camila glanced instinctively at Dennis. He met her gaze with a look that was layered—there was something unspoken there, a trace of tenderness, and a soft, reassuring smile.

Her heart melted on the spot.

Suddenly, everything clicked into place.

Tonight’s misunderstanding—yes, Lavinia Roberts had set a trap for her, but wasn’t this also part of Dennis’s plan to stand by her side, to shield her in front of everyone?

No wonder he’d brought her here. No wonder he’d shared the good news from the research institute just before they arrived.

It was all to help her secure her footing in this world.

While everyone was still reeling from the appearance of these influential figures, Hamlin Sanders and his wife entered the room.

The Sanders family might not be one of the eight great houses, but Hamlin’s personal standing made his words carry enormous weight.

He spoke in a low, steady voice. “Mr. Parsons and Mr. Mark are absolutely right. If we let dishonest people inherit the future of the great families, then all the blood, sweat, and sacrifice our forebears poured into these lineages would become a mockery.”

In truth, both the Brooks and Hill families had built their legacies through hard work, generation after generation.

The Roberts family’s greed had brought disaster on themselves.

Now, with the chance to hold the Roberts family accountable right in front of them, if they didn’t stand up for the Brooks and Hill families—if they let the Roberts family continue to prey upon their peers—who knew which family would be next?

One by one, representatives from the other families stepped forward, voices rising: “We also support strict punishment for the Roberts family!”

“Mr. Sanders is right. The reason our families have endured is because of the foundations built up over generations. We, as heirs, are proud of that heritage and take our good name seriously.

She’d never imagined things would end like this.

All she’d wanted was to target Camila Davis.

But now—now it was all over.

The future of the Roberts family was in ruins.

With all eight great families united in their decision, the Roberts family would lose its place as the second house in medical circles. The Brooks and Hill families wouldn’t rest until they’d had justice. And as for the Roberts family’s reputation, already at rock bottom—every enemy they’d made over the years would seize this chance to strike.

After tonight, the Roberts family would be finished.

Terror-stricken, Lavinia staggered forward to plead, “No, Mrs. Molly, Mr. Parsons, all of this was my doing. My family had nothing to do with it! We never stole anything, really—we only bought those things from others, that’s all, yes, we bought them from someone else…”

For once, her mind worked quickly, and her story almost sounded convincing.

Larry Adams snorted. “So what, you’re saying all the evidence we provided is fake?”

Lavinia clenched her fists, her eyes wild with desperation. “Evidence can be fabricated, can’t it? For people like you, making up a few documents is nothing, is it?”
