But the young master didn’t look at her. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, dark and intense.

It was a tree-lined path, lit by magnolia-shaped street lamps on one side. The soft yellow glow flickered in his deep eyes. His face showed the heaviness of alcohol and clear exhaustion.

Tonight, he’d been filling in for Mr. Knight, entertaining guests, drinking nonstop, speaking endlessly.

He wasn’t someone who enjoyed talking, but there were many things he couldn’t avoid—things he had to do whether he liked them or not.

She remembered when she first learned to drive, how she couldn’t shake the trauma of her parents’ accident. Just sitting in the driver’s seat made her break into a cold sweat.

But the young master told her, “The harder something is, the more you need to face it. It might be painful, but once you’ve tackled enough difficult things, one day you’ll look back and realize—nothing really scares you anymore. That’s when you’ve become strong.”

You've known each other for over ten years, right? Your kids are already a few years old, and yet you’re still as sweet as when you were dating!"Seamus sighed, "Yeah, we've known each other for twelve years, broke up for a few years, and the time we spent together was short."As he spoke, Seamus helped Zara pull out a chair, and they both sat down.Zara used the opportunity to greet both Kendrick and Anna briefly.Zara was very slim, with an air of cool elegance, but her demeanor was poised and straightforward.

    When Annabelle focused again to take another look, she could no longer see it.

    It turned out that Briley had planted two poisonous plants in the small garden of Anna's mother. One was called Ghost Nightshade , whose fruit resembled small tomatoes, and the other was a plant commonly known as Drunken Heart Flower, which was highly toxic—its scent alone could cause hallucinations.Years ago, Briley had visited her pregnant sister, Tiffany, and intentionally picked some Ghost Nightshade fruits, mixing them into a bowl of small tomatoes to trick her sister into eating them. Just two of those fruits were enough to kill a child, as their toxicity was immense.How much her mother had consumed, Anna didn’t know. But one thing was certain: after eating the Ghost Nightshade, combined with the long-term exposure to the toxic flower's scent, her mother went into premature labor. The calming effects of both the Ghost Nightshade and Drunken Heart Flower made her mother’s contractions weak, eventually leading to a difficult labor and causing her death.Briley wanted to kill her

    Annabelle glanced at her biological father and bit her lip. The whole situation felt a bit too sudden, and calling him "Dad" right now still felt a little awkward.It seemed that her father noticed her hesitation and smiled, saying, "We’ll be a family from now on. Take your time."Kendrick, smiling, patted her on the head and said, "When you’re discharged, would you like to change your name?"Anna froze for a moment, then realized what he meant. She would no longer be surnamed Sanchez but Murphy.Murphy…Wait a minute. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to Kendrick. "Your mother’s surname is also Murphy. Could it be that we're… siblings?""Well, we already have a child, so if we are siblings, it's too late," Kendrick said, casually."That can't be possible!" Anna laughed, shaking her head.Her father chuckled and reassured her, "Don’t worry. Our Murphy family and Kendrick's mother's Murphy family don’t share the same ancestor. You two just focus on living your life, and eve

    Briley immediately agreed. Once the baby passed its hundred-day mark, she spent a little money to enroll in a private college. Earning a diploma wasn't difficult for her.As for Gavyn, he listened to everything his mother said. In modern terms, he was a typical mama's boy. Although he was unwilling to marry Briley, since his mother had spoken, he had no choice but to comply.

    But Annabelle still had many questions in her heart.Since Gauge’s mother was her maternal aunt,that meant Uncle Murphy was her uncle-in-law. The fact that he was holding her necklace to explain their relationship indicated that Uncle Murphy had known for a long time that she and Gauge were cousins.Why had Uncle Murphy never mentioned this before?Moreover, her parents were greedy and power-hungry. Why hadn’t they ever tried to get close to someone like Uncle Murphy, who was from a wealthy family? Didn’t her parents know that Uncle Murphy had married Annabelle’s aunt?Was it possible that the two families had some kind of feud, leading them to cut off contact?Annabelle also remembered what Gauge had said before—every year, his father would take him back to a small town by the South Bay seaside and stay there for a few days.
