The person completely aware of the situation and still had the clearest mind in the Irwan family right now was Jenny.
She shook her head and clicked her tongue. She looked at Leila who was lying unconscious on the floor before sighing and calling out to the butler.
"Uncle Hardy, hurry and take her to the hospital. Don't let anything go wrong with her. There are still a lot of things she needs to take responsibility for!" Jenny ordered.
"No need!" Jean immediately interrupted the woman.
Jenny turned to Jean. Even though the younger man cut her roughly, Jenny didn't mind. She smiled faintly and asked, "What do you think, Jean?"
The man slowly got up from his chair and walked towards Lilia. Then Jean put his coat around the woman's shoulder. His blue eyes that had looked like a frozen sea were now melting and filled with warmth as he stared at Lilia's trembling body. Only after he confirmed that Lilia stopped shaking did he turn to Jenny.
"I have arranged a sophisticated medical team outside. This is not a deadly disease, so the medical team can treat it," Jean said calmly. "I need the Irwan family to quickly clear up the swapped child problem, secret financing for Leila, two assassination attempts against Mellisa, and the others,"
Jenny nodded with a serious expression. "I know. We need to solve all these incidents and pay what we need to pay. You don't have to worry about that,"
"Very nice," Jean glared at Richard, Janice, Randell, Trisa, and Simon. "I won't be satisfied until my wife gets the justice she deserves,"
After Jean said that, Leonard suddenly stood up from his chair. He stood beside Mellisa and stroked her cold cheek. Then Leonard looked around the hall with an expressionless face.
"My wife-to-be Mellisa also needs justice. I will keep my eyes on all of you until this is over. I swear on my honor as a police inspector," Leonard's words sounded threatening.
Everyone in the hall felt that the two men were like pine trees standing tall and proud. The two of them really looked alike!
Jenny glanced at Simon and Hardy, then she smiled. "I see. Uncle Hardy, let Leila stay in this house for a while. I have a feeling she will run away or cause new trouble if we just let her go," Jenny said to the butler.
After saying what she wanted to say, Leonard reached out and lifted Mellisa's body from the chair. When he turned to leave, he glanced at Trisa.
"Mellisa is seriously injured. If Irwan's family still recognizes her as a daughter, someone better come with me to the hospital. Look what she has to go through tonight," Leonard said coldly.
Trisa's face turned pale and she hurriedly lowered her head. Anxiety colored her expression.
Leila was injured and immediately treated by a medical team guarding outside the house. On the other hand, Mellisa was injured but needed to be taken to the hospital. Such a contrasting difference made one wonder exactly what Mellisa experienced.
The woman's face looked so pale and her movements were weak and helpless, though no one saw where Mellisa's wound was.
Regardless of what would happen to Leila and the Pangestu Family couple, the Irwan family still wanted to know how Mellisa's situation was.
Janice just got up from her chair and walked over to her daughter. But before she could speak, Mellisa who was carried in Leonard's arms immediately shook her head with her eyes closed.
"Just let Lilia accompany me. The others... I don't want to see them," Mellisa muttered.
The hatred and anger in her heart could not be eliminated with just a few words.
If it weren't for driving Leila out of the Irwan Family, Mellisa wouldn't be willing to set foot in her family's house again. She came back only to help Lilia and to tear up Leila's hypocrisy. The pain she endured as a result of the betrayal of her own family members was like a thousand arrows piercing her heart.
"Mellisa, at least let Mother... let me accompany you... okay?" Janice stopped in front of the woman and tried to persuade her.
She reached out to touch Mellisa, but her hand stopped in midair. Her daughter looked so frail and weak that Janice was afraid she might hurt her. What really happened to Mellisa? Where's the wound? How could she be so weak?
Mellisa didn't say anything, but she buried her face in Leonard's chest. Her gesture was enough to show that she even refused her mother.
The four of them turned around and left the back hall, while Hardy went outside to find a medical team.
Then, the remaining Irwan family members fixed their gazes on Robert and Sylvia.
Anton, who was still sitting in his chair, took a quiet sip of the cold herbal tea. Then he looked at his best friend. "Simon, from now on, you can't say that my family isn't peaceful. Because it turns out that your family is not that different from mine," Anton said with a bitter smile.
Simon sighed. He already knew that Leila wasn't as cute as her behavior, but he didn't expect his granddaughter to be so much more poisonous than he imagined. The young woman was able to play his whole family on her hands. But Simon was sure that someone was helping Leila. The question was, who was that person?
The first to be suspected was definitely the Pangestu family couple. They were Leila's biological parents, so it's only natural that they helped their own daughter. Then the second most suspicious person was Trisa, who seemed to be trying too hard to help Leila all along. There was something wrong with his daughter-in-law.
At this time, Simon felt he had suddenly aged several years in just one night. He got up from his chair and saw the painting on the wall. His voice sounded heavy and tired.
"Everyone, listen carefully," He said firmly.
Jenny, Richard, Janice, Randell, and Trisa immediately focused their attention on Simon's every word.
"You have to investigate this matter thoroughly. Only then can we make amends for our mistakes on our two daughters— Mellisa and Lilia," Simon said.
The man's words showed his decision to acknowledge Lilia as the daughter of the Irwan Family.
"As soon as the two of them return from the hospital, the Pangestu Family can leave the Irwan Family's house with Leila," the old man continued.
Trisa, who was still sitting on one side with her head bowed, immediately lifted her head when she heard that. Her eyes shone with a cunning plan. While Trisa was enjoying her excitement, she heard Simon say again.
"Randell, you and Trisa are not allowed to set foot into this house until the results of the investigation are out."
"Oh well, Father!" Randell was too innocent, so he immediately responded to the order.
Trisa gritted her teeth and squeezed her hand hard. What a useless man!

Meanwhile, in the tea room inside the Irwan Family's main house.
Even though the party was over, Andrew and Claire didn't leave. Claire had forced Andrew to tell her everything he knew. The woman felt very angry because Andrew already knew what had happened to the Irwan family and the blood relationship between Mellisa and Lilia.
Claire felt as if she had been cheated for a long time by her own husband. But the situation forced Andrew to lie, so Claire couldn't punish him too harshly.. In the end, she just acted coldly and ignored Andrew's attempts to please her.
