Chapter 409: Do You Have No Conscience?

"That is ridiculous!" Fred's face was red, he pointed at Joshua and shouted, “You still want to use some ludicrous reason to smear Mandy and her identity! She has evidence and complete information. She even looks so much like Cate. Why do you keep saying she is not the daughter of the Denmark family!?”

Mandy bit her lip tightly, she never expected that Joshua would react like he was. Her eyes were red, and she said, “Hazel, I don’t want to take Denmark Group from you. I just wanted to find my parents. But, how can you do this? Even if it is for the money, how could you lie and take it from Joshua? This is everything that my parents worked on in their entire life. Do you have no conscience?”

The meeting room was loud and chaotic, some people were whispering while others were yelling. After all, the directors believed that Mandy was the daughter of the Denmark family, and Joshua had given it to Hazel. They questioned and accused him of being sneaky and evil.

“It was wrong!”

“How could he have given Denmark Group to someone who has nothing to do with it?”

They all assumed that Hazel deliberately cheated Joshua to obtain Denmark Group and the Denmark fortune with speaking to Hazel.

"The girl is scheming..."

"Probably she used all kinds of skills to make Joshua fall..."

"We should call the police. This is a scam..."

Joshua slammed his hand down on the board room table the calmly said, “Everyone, I have evidence.”

Nobody dared to say anything, they just looked at each other. They never thought that Joshua would have evidence.

Sunny's expression changed, but the most flustered looking was Mandy. How could Joshua possibly have any evidence? She clearly had destroyed all the evidence related to her!

Fred's face turned white like he had seen a ghost. He said angrily, “Joshua! Don’t think about playing games now! No matter what evidence you have, we won’t believe it! How could Marcus and Cate have adopted you? All because of a calculating girl like Hazel, you are trying to ruin their daughter….”

Joshua’s face turned cold when he heard Fred question Marcus and Cate’s decisions and insulting Hazel. He waved his hand slightly, and two bodyguards walked up behind Fred and calmly forced him to sit down.

"What do you want?" Fred's face changed dramatically.

"Director Cohen, you just insulted Hazel and my parents. I will deal with your misconduct later, but I suggest you look at the evidence before that.

If you are not willing to look at the evidence, I will assume that you are afraid of the truth."

"You...!" Fred still wanted to say something. On the screen behind Joshua, a set of photos appeared.

When the photos showed on the screen, Mandy’s face became ashen, she stood up. Nobody noticed her actions because they were all staring at the screen, speechless.

Hazel was shocked, she couldn’t look away if she wanted to. It was a set of cosmetic surgery photos. The woman on the screen looked to have undergone many surgeries, to look like what Mandy did now.

Mandy's face... was a product of surgery?

"Looking at this group of photos, I think everyone knows it now, correct?" Joshua said faintly, "Mandy started having cosmetic surgery under the

pseudonym Jojo at the age of fourteen. Her look was based on the photos of my mother Cate Denmark. After six years of such surgery, she finally became what she looks like today. I can conclude..."

"You are a liar!" Fred stood up again and sullenly interrupted him, "This… these are all fabricated by you. It can't be Mandy... It's from Hazel. They must be the cosmetic surgery records of Hazel. You are using it as false evidence to corrupt Mandy!"

Although he shouted, none of the directors believed him. After all, the photos did not really have any explanation. Even though a person’s appearance can be significantly changed by surgery, some things could not be changed. If they looked at the original photo, they could clearly see that Mandy was not Hazel.

"I can conclude now." Joshua ignored Fred's words and went on to say, "This was a premeditated, long-planned vicious case of fraud to take over Denmark Group!"

"That, that's bullshit!" Fred was powerless and angry, but Mandy had already looked like a zombie. She knew she had clearly destroyed all the evidence. How could Joshua even find it? Did that mean he also knew...

Mandy was astonished, she looked over at Sunny, but Sunny looked gloomy, and she didn’t even glance at Mandy. A look of desperation flashed in Mandy’s eyes.

"Just to be fair, we shall take a look at another set of photos," Joshua said faintly. A picture of Mandy taken at eight years old appeared on the screen. "I believe everyone's memory is very good. This photo was provided to us by Director Cohen, correct? Please remember this face."

Everyone was confused, not knowing what Joshua was going to do. The next moment, two more photos appeared on the screen. Mandy and Fred had no idea that the photos were taken, but they showed them when Mandy was about eight years old. In the photos, Mandy and Fred looked close and friendly, not like strangers at all.

“Director Cohen, you had been efficient and careful with your plan. However, there will always be traces of the truth.” Joshua said faintly, “Twenty years ago, you started this conspiracy. You participated in the kidnapping, but you were not satisfied with that. You wanted to arrange a fake daughter to replace her. So, you took her lucky necklace and told the kidnappers to kill her. You never expected that she would be lucky even without the necklace. The kidnappers thought she was dead, so they just left her.”

"Later, you sent the photo and the lucky necklace to the orphanage so that Mandy could take over the identity of my parents’ daughter. To keep her information detailed and convincing, you let a couple adopt her, but you were afraid that she might become too alienated from you. So, you would meet with her and secretly fund her.”

"As she got older, you helped her to fake a birthmark and funded her long-term plastic surgery and facial care. You have been hiding this information all these years, not because you had a conscience but because you knew you could change a face, but DNA could not be changed. You waited until Marcus and Cate passed away before you mentioned Mandy because you knew neither of them had any relatives left, as long as they were gone, there would be no way to verify DNA!”

"That, that's bullshit..." Fred was still struggling, "This, this photo is fake. I have never seen her, no..."

“Oh?” Joshua smiled, “Director Cohen, you did not promise Mandy that when she grew up, you would get a divorce and marry her so that she could have a rich life?”

"Joshua, you, you stop that!" Fred said anxiously and frustrated, "I didn't

Have dirty thoughts like you think. I just wanted to recognize her as a foster daughter….”

When Fred realized what he said, his face suddenly went gray. Everyone thought that it sounded like he wanted to be Mandy’s sugar daddy.
