After Edith left, Calbert was the first one to speak. "Otto, if you want to blame someone, blame me. I was the first one to notice. I was the one who told Yvonne.""I was the one who told Calbert to hide it from you," Yvonne chimed in. She looked at Otto calmly. "Mr. Carrington, this entire matter is really complicated and long. Back then, we weren't sure of it yet, which is why—""You two ganged up to lie to me. Now you expect me to just try to understand where you're coming from. Is that it?"Otto sneered. "You two are the people I trust the most. I thought there were no secrets between us and that we could talk about anything. "But what did you two do instead? If Mark hadn't taken Great-Grandma away, how long were you planning to keep this from me?"Yvonne and Calbert looked at each other.Calbert looked apologetic. "We had always planned to tell you. It's just that things happened too suddenly. We never thought Mark would do this.""Do you think I would believe you?" Otto
Just as Otto had guessed, Mark didn't cause Agatha any trouble.At that moment, he brought a doggy bag of breakfast food to Agatha. "I don't know what you like to eat, so just eat whatever we have downstairs."He placed the food on the table.The next second, Agatha flipped the table, sending food falling everywhere."Who the hell are you?" Agatha was so furious, she trembled. "How much ransom are you asking for by kidnapping me? Let me tell you, the people I hate the most in this world are kidnappers!"I'm really old. I would rather die than let you terrible kidnappers get away with the money!"Agatha spat on Mark."You!" Mark was furious, but he gritted his teeth and took it.He bent down and picked up a piece of bread.Agatha looked at him as he picked up the bread. Somehow, she got even more furious. She stabbed her walking cane into another piece of bread. "Why the hell are you picking this up? I won't eat any of it!"Mark grabbed her walking cane and looked up at her co
At that instant, her blurry memories of that face suddenly became clear.The face she was looking at in front of her at that moment looked so much like that of her eldest grandson. It was almost a clone!Tears welled up in Agatha's eyes. She raised her trembling hands to touch Mark's face. "You've returned."Mark felt a little uneasy. He pushed her hands away.Agatha frantically pulled him back and asked urgently, "Who are you? What is your name?""I would like to know who the hell I am too." Mark retracted his hand and stood up. He towered over Agatha and looked at her. "Why did you destroy my mother's grave? The men you hired at the border said you were looking for me. Why were you looking for me?"Back then, when Yvonne had said that he was not Jennifer Johnson's son, he had fought for his life to run out from the fire. When he arrived at the border, he realized that Jennifer's grave had been destroyed. After looking into it, he found out that Agatha was behind it.He had
Agatha quickly wiped away her tears and nodded fervently. "Of course!"She tried to get up, but she had used all her energy from crying. She could only look up at Mark. "My child, I've been searching for you to take you back home. No family member should be left outside on their own."If I don't take you back home, I won't dare to see your parents at all!"Agatha reached out to hold Mark's hand. This time, he didn't refuse.She looked delighted. "D-Do you believe me now?""I have to see with my own eyes to believe you. You said my… father and I…" Mark furrowed his brows. He felt a little strange bringing up his father. "That we look alike?""Yes!" Agatha nodded. She held onto Mark's hand and slowly got up. "I can take you back to Carrington Mansion. I still have the photos of your parents. You'll believe me once you see them.""Okay."Seeing Mark agree, Agatha enthusiastically led him to the door. "Let's go. We'll head back right away."However, Mark didn't move.Agatha loo
At that moment, Carrington Mansion was in chaos."Grandma is already so old! She can't possibly take any bruising!""Why haven't the kidnappers called or anything? If they want money, we'll just give it to them! Grandma has to be safe!""People are already talking about how she didn't attend her own birthday party. We won't be able to hide the fact that she has been kidnapped for too long!"The Carringtons in the living room were noisily talking among themselves. When Otto and the others returned, the discussion finally stopped.Heidi frantically went up to them. "Did you find her yet?""No. The others are still looking for her. If they still can't find her, they will call the police."When the family heard the word "police", they were in an uproar once more."No! No! If the kidnappers find out that we called the police, they won't even give us a chance to talk! They will just kill her! What are we going to do then?""Yes, Otto! That's your great-grandmother. How could you b
Seeing that Calbert stayed silent, the other Carringtons looked at Otto."How could you bring such a dangerous person here? Otto, are you trying to get us killed?""No wonder you said you wanted to call the police! I'm guessing you wanted to take the chance to get rid of Grandma so that you could become the heir!""Otto, how could you be so heartless? You'll get what you deserve for doing such an immoral thing!"At that moment, everyone attacked Otto without understanding the situation. They were showing their true colors.Calbert could no longer take it. "Enough! It isn't the way Mrs. Carrington Senior made it sound."Yes, I admit I spied on her, but Otto knew nothing about it! What's the point of yelling at him? I dare you to come at me!""It's good that you admit it!" Agatha looked at him sternly. "Then, tell me. What was your purpose for spying on me?""I…" Calbert was at a loss for words. He couldn't possibly say that it was to catch Mark."You can't explain, right?" Agat
Yvonne snickered arrogantly and swept a glance at every member of the Carrington family."So, these are the true colors of wealthy people." Yvonne crossed her arms across her chest. "Mr. Carrington, since we aren't worthy enough to be your friends, let's just split ways. I don't need to be insulted by this bunch of people."I knew a long time ago that you wealthy people are judgmental. I just didn't expect you all to be so stupid and not know right from wrong."Yvonne looked at Agatha. "Especially you, you old hag. If you have delusions and paranoia, I urge you to see a doctor, in case you cause more trouble for the younger generation."Mr. Carrington has been searching for you for the entire night. But when he got back, he still had to take your scolding. "He's the only one good enough to put up with you. If it had been us, we would have fought back."You should thank God every single day to have such a great-grandson. Don't be an unappreciative bitch."Agatha was furious. "
In the study, Otto closed the door behind him and went up to Agatha. "Great-Grandma, what is it?""I found the missing child from back then."Otto's heart sank, but he feigned a casual tone. "Is that so? I guess congratulations are in order. Your wish for many years has finally come true.""Hmm." Agatha sized Otto up and said, "I'm relieved to hear you say that. It looks like I was overthinking before. I thought you, among the entire family, didn't want the child to come back the most."Otto nodded. The frostiness in his gaze faded. "Since I was a child, you taught me that we should help each other out in the family. How could I have any malice toward my own family?""Good. It's good that you still remember what I said." Agatha looked at Otto. "When I see that child once more, I will bring him home. I hope you will care for him and guide him. "After all, he has been away from the family for many years. He isn't familiar with our family at all. If you could do your best to help
