Chapter 420 Face the Truth

Pasta Fra Cons

Owen looked at Oscar with emotion. “Oscar, the fact that you came to see me under these circumstances it means we’re still family.”

Oscar set the medical file down and said seriously, “I came to see you for a reason”

Owen‘ asked carnestly, “What is it?”

His expression made it seem like whatever Oscar was about to ask, he’d do his best to fulfill it.

Someone who had just come back from the brink of death valued a family visit deeply.

Oscar pulled out a court summons. “This came from the courthouse. It was originally sent to the Saunders family, but no one responded the first two times. So they sent it to me.”

“A summons?” Owen frowned, confused. What kind of trouble had the Saunders family gotten into now?

When he finished reading it, his brow furrowed even deeper. Angrily, he asked, “Yunice did this?”

“No. What would she gain from that?”

Oscar’s expression grew more serious as he watched Owen’s reaction. “You read the whole thing, and you still think Yunice did something wrong?”

Owen let out a frustrated breath and folded the summons. “Elsie and I just barely escaped death, and the whole Saunders family is in chaos. I wasn’t expecting Yunice to help us, but she’s making things worse?”

Oscar said, “And you’re not going to say a word about what Mom did?”

Owen looked at him, confused. “Wait… Oscar, you don’t actually believe it, do you? Mom would never slander Yunice. You know what Yunice is like.”

Oscar’s voice rose. “You know what Yunice is like?”

Owen froze.

“Yunice was class rep starting from kindergarten. Her grades were always top–tier. She entered countless competitions. Her room is full of trophies. You forgot? Or is it just because Elsie picked up a few of those. awards for her, that now you actually believe they belonged to Elsie?”

Owen argued, “That was all before high school. Plenty of students do well in tenth and eleventh grade. then crash in senior year. Her past grades don’t mean much now.”

“Fine.” Oscar didn’t argue, just continued laying out facts. “Did you forget that in your freshman year of college, Yunice helped you with your homework? She even understood your first–year coursework. You think someone like that needs to cheat on the SAT? Back then, Margaret treated Yunice like her own daughter–she even hired top–tier tutors to teach Yunice and Paul one–on–one. Yunice had already finished all her high school curriculum ahead of time. Those teachers called me multiple times saying she was gifted and begged me not to waste her potential. You didn’t know all that?”

Owen was still trying to find an excuse. “Even if she was smart before, didn’t she waste three years in a mental hospital? She probably forgot everything she learned.”

Oscar shook his head in disappointment. “You really think that little of Yunice?”

“How do I look down on her? I’m just being honest,” Owen said, equally puzzled. (D)

Oscar pressed on. “You’ve imagined every possible way she might have cheated, but not once have you stopped to ask if she might’ve been telling the truth. But it doesn’t matter whether you believe it. The court will sort it out.”

He picked up the summons and turned to leave.

Owen quickly called after him. “Oscar! That’s our mom. You’re really going to drag her into court? No matter who wins or loses, we’ll all come out worse for it!”

Oscar turned back and said coldly, “So deep down, you do know who’s in the wrong.”
