Marcus swiftly held onto the old Master Shaw. "Grandpa. Grandpa, are you okay?"The old Master Shaw's vision blurred from his tears and he felt light-headed. "Is...is she really your aunt?""It's one-hundred percent true, Grandpa!""She is still alive?"Marcus nodded firmly. "It's the Lynns who fooled you! The information my parents obtained is true. Auntie was married to Lincoln Lynn not long after she ran away from home, but she didn't die from childbirth like Lincoln said. Those two eventually got divorced.""Then...then should you go after them...""After my aunt, you mean?" Marcus asked."Let's go!"The two immediately got into the car, but Marcus came down again right after they had closed the car doors behind them. He made his way to the police car where Lincoln was held and said to the officers, "I'm sorry, but please take him with you a little bit later. The conflict between this man and my aunt is still unresolved, so I need him to spill every last detail before you p
"The best way to harvest your organs would be to do so when you are dead."Sabrina felt chills crawling down her spine at the idea."Because with you dead, they could harvest what they wanted with no concern over the consequences. When my father heard about old Master Shaw's plan, he immediately agreed to help."Her heart instantly sank at his words, but she still managed to comfort Sebastian. "Don't blame your father. Old Master Shaw's influence on the Ford Family is enormous, after all."Sebastian sneered. His father had plenty to make up for, but not now."So now..." Sabrina looked up at her husband. "No one will come after my kidneys anymore?""No one will come after your kidneys anymore."The couple turned to look at the entrance of the hotel unconsciously, when two people walked in. It was Marcus and the old Master Shaw.It had been a temporary solution for Sebastian to ask that they don't follow, because he didn't want to enrage Sabrina's mother. But in the end, the old
Everyone looked up in unison upon hearing the hoarse voice, and saw a woman in her fifties standing by the handles on the second floor. The woman was pale, likely because she hadn't seen sunlight for a prolonged period of time and the fact that her face had been covered with hair most of the time. There was a fine line in between her brows but that did not affect her beauty by the slightest, giving her a sense of maturity and dignity instead. Had the woman not called out to Sabrina, no one would have known that this woman in front of them was the same person as the stray woman before. Every single person was dumbfounded by the sight.Marcus's father was the first to react. "Sis!"Sabrina's mother did not respond and remained expressionless."Sis! You are my little sister! I've seen you a couple of times when we were young, so I can tell that you are my sister with just one look!"Marcus's father rubbed his hands together in excitement. It had been so many years, he had spent so man
Just then, Lincoln's phone rang. His phone had been ringing for a few times, but with people watching his every move, he couldn't pick it up. In the dead-silent hotel lobby that Sebastian had paid to empty out, Marcus reached down into Lincoln's pocket and saw that the call was from Jade. Lincoln's face was as pale as it was humanly possible by then.Marcus glanced over at the old Master Shaw and said, "Grandpa, you started this, you should be the one to answer this call."The old Master Shaw took over the phone and answered the call, while Marcus helped to set it to speakerphone."Hello? Jade?" The old Master Shaw asked calmly.Instantly, Jade's excited voice came from the other end of the line. "Hi, dad...dad...!"Everyone, including the old Master Shaw, kept quiet awkwardly. Sabrina's mother couldn't help but chuckle bitterly in response. The old Master Shaw flushed a crimson but somehow maintained his composure. "What is it, Jade?"On the other side, Jade giggled. "How are
Selene felt a chill down her spine at the voice. She turned around to find a pale-skinned beautiful woman with an elegant demeanor. The woman looked to be around the same age as Selene's mother but was taller and more elegant than her in comparison. For a moment, she couldn't tell who that was. Six years ago when the Lynns imprisoned Gloria, she had just been transported back from foreign land, ragged and covered in dirt like a common beggar, so Selene never managed to see what Gloria actually looked like. She stared at the woman before her in confusion and asked, "who are you?""She's my aunt!" Marcus growled.Aunt? Selene paused to think for a second, before chuckling, "Well, my cousin's aunt is my aunt, too. You are probably older than my mom, right? Hello, Auntie. I'm your sister's daughter's daughter. Um...why hasn't anyone told me that Grandpa has another daughter?""She is my mom!" Sabrina jumped into the conversation."Ah!" Selene suddenly noticed Sabrina, who was sitting r
"You don't want to die, but you want my daughter to die?" Gloria questioned sharply."I...she...if she doesn't die, my...my fake identity will eventually be exposed." Frightened, Selene ended up spilling the truth."Ha! Haha!" Gloria started laughing bitterly out of the blue. She turned to look at the old Master Shaw. "Are you seeing this, Mr. Shaw? This is your granddaughter. It doesn't matter if she is an imposter or the real one, but she is the one you chose. You have despised my daughter for six years for her sake, and after six whole years, my daughter finally came home but still, you won't let her be! Mr. Shaw, do we have an unresolved grudge from our past lives?"The old Master Shaw looked at Gloria in tears. "You are my Gloria. You are my Gloria, aren't you?”She chuckled, despite the despair. "The Gloria you are speaking of, is your daughter, right?""Gloria..."A bitter smile appeared on her face. "I'm sorry, Mr. Shaw, but I...am really not your daughter. I'm not lying
Sabrina stood up and helped her mother up. “Alright, Mom.”Gloria heaved out a breath of relief. She looked at Lincoln, Jade and Selene who all lay on the floor in a pile of soft, weak, limbs then looked at Sebastian.Sebastian immediately answered her, “Yes, Gloria?”“Not only did my ex-husband imprison me, he even framed my daughter and used her. He has committed too much evil to be forgiven, both he and his wife are accomplices. And, his daughter Selene, she became a true murderer nine years ago. That’s why the three of them should be incarcerated, only then can my daughter be avenged.”“Alright, Gloria!” Sebastian nodded.“Come on, let’s go.” Gloria called out to Sebastian and Sabrina. She did not bother taking a single glance at the old, wizened Old Master Shaw, whose tears were streaming down his face. She further ignored Marcus Shaw and his parents. “Gloria…” The old man’s voice sounded ancient. “No matter what, you’re still my daughter, my own flesh and blood. Even thoug
She looked pained as she recalled the past. It all happened more than 50 years ago. Back then, Old Master Shaw was in his 30s, high-spirited and vigorous, his military career was also rising day by day. Old Master Shaw and his wife were childhood friends, playmates; the two families were equally wealthy, both coming from prestigious and well-respected families. Naturally they got married, and later, had a son together. Happy times did not last, Old Master Shaw did not have much time to spend at home with his wife and son. Soon, he returned to work.That year, the old man was deployed to the middle east to help maintain peace in the region. There, he met a teacher who taught piano and drawing. That teacher was from Kidon City, she was there because she liked the scenery in the middle east and wanted to stay for a while. She had applied for a job in the area, teaching children piano and drawing.One day, Old Master Shaw passed by and heard her playing the piano. He couldn’t help himse
