The crowd erupted in an absolute uproar.
"Oh my god! This is insane!"
"What... what is happening? How is Aurora's child Sellers's?"
"Wait, so McCoy's daughter... is actually Sellers's child?"
"Is this real? If Aurora was pregnant with Sellers's kid, why did she marry McCoy? Wouldn't marrying Sellers be better?"
"Are you out of your mind? Aurora's reputation was completely trashed back then. The Burtons are famous for being strict; there was no way they'd let her marry into the family."
"But the Chapmans are just as powerful as the Burtons, right? If the Burtons couldn't accept her, why did the Chapmans?"
"Poor McCoy. He's been cuckolded for years, raising another man's kid until she's three."
"Hey, this might not be true. What does one video prove?"
"She admitted it out loud on camera! How could it be fake?"
"Maybe even Aurora didn't know who the father was! She told Sellers it was his, then told McCoy it was his, just to see who would actually marry her."
"That makes total sense... If that's true, she was playing both men at the exact same time."
"I actually felt sorry for her before, getting kidnapped to that place and forced to string two men along just to survive.
Even when that video was exposed, she was technically a victim.
But this... juggling two guys at once? There's no coming back from this."
Nearly ninety percent of the guests believed it without a second thought.
After all, she had confessed to it on camera.
You can fake a lot of things, but a verbal confession? Not likely.
"What's the point of faking a test to raise a kid that isn't even my own blood?" Sellers retorted. "McCoy, don't you want to know if Shay is actually your daughter? Is she even a Chapman?
Or do you just enjoy raising other men's kids?"
McCoy's expression darkened instantly.
Of course he wanted to know if Shay was his, but he definitely didn't want to do it in front of a live audience.
Whatever the result today, even if Shay was his daughter, the Chapman family's reputation was ruined.
Before they were married, Aurora had slept with Sellers!
He could overlook what happened to her as a victim.
But they were already dating before the wedding, and she had still slept with Sellers...
No matter how open-minded McCoy was, he could never get over that.
