Discovering that the granddaughter he had been doting on was an imposter, and his real granddaughter had been mistreated by the imposter's biological parents-subjected to abuse and kidnapping-made Grandpa Nelson see things in a clearer light. Even though he had a soft spot for Andrea, he knew deep down who truly deserved his affection and apologies.
Andrea looked at Nelson with disbelief, "Grandpa, you don't believe me?!" Her voice trembled with anger and hurt.
Seeing her like this only deepened Nelson's frown.

Jerome, noticing Lizetta holding onto a credit card, quickly took it from her and suggested, "Let's not take this card back. We'll donate it to the hospital for charity." Andrea's eyes welled up with tears as she glared at Lizetta, who was lying in the hospital bed. "I had good intentions, and you repaywith betrayal. Is this what you wanted?" Lizetta was quite taken aback. Without any solid proof, Nelson and Jerchose to believe her over Florence, whom they had cherished for years. A mix of emotions surged in Lizetta-gratitude, a touch of sadness, and warmth. She was at a loss for words.
Mrs. Bernice Madden, stepping forward to embrace Lizetta, frowned at Andrea, "Don't you dare speak to Elsa like that! Get out!" Andrea felt even more upset and humiliated.
Timothy commented with a smirk, "Florence probably doesn't know, but when Litchi got divorced, Remi gave her assets worth billions in real estate, stocks, and cash. Liz didn't care for any of it and didn't take a dime. She wouldn't be interested in your $50,000. Try not to be so stingy next time; it doesn't suit the Madden name. People might start thinking you're the imposter here." "What are you talking about?!" Andrea glared at Timothy, frustrated that even outsiders were questioning her. She hoped Nelson and Jerwould defend her, but they remained silent.
Andrea panicked, wondering how things could have gone so wrong.
Timothy just shrugged and rolled his eyes at her.
Hogan added, "Ms. Madden, Liz makes more than $50,000 just from the royalties of one song she writes or choreographs. If you knew anything about Liz, you wouldn't have made such a laughable mistake." Sitting there, Lizetta felt like everyone's favorite. She didn't have to say or do anything; everyonein"" the room believed and sided with her, protecting her.
Andrea hadn't anticipated losing so badly. Biting her lip, she covered her face and ran out crying.

"Liz, don't take this to heart, and don't let this drive a wedge between us, e.
okay?". Nelson said, his tone cautious.
Lizetta shook her head, "Of course not. Thank you for believing in me, Grandpa Nelson."
Nelson sighed in relief, then turned.
to Timothy with a scowl "What was that about earlier? So the Dash family screwed Liz over afte all?"
Timothy flinched, starting to explain, but Nelson cut him off, "Sa him off "Savedit. im don't want to hear excuses; only outcomes matter!" Timothy was left speechless.
