The more Raymond thought about it, the more restless he became. He shot to his feet and tossed out a single sentence. "Those two upstairs are your responsibility."Then he strode out. The drowsiness vanished, and the fatigue evaporated. Only one thought remained. 'Sydney is my sister. That gentle, obedient child. The girl who later learned to walk on eggshells, she is my sister…'He knew exactly how that old Sterling witch had treated her.She was smart. She learned how to soften her tone, how to say what people wanted to hear, how to placate that old witch. When she had to, she even learned how to deceive her.Even so, her life over the years had been nothing but misery. She should have grown up in the Hutton family, cherished like a princess. Instead, she endured years of hardship. How had that happened?Setting aside the nine years she spent beside Julian, there were still more than ten years before that. More than 3,000 days and nights. How many decades does a person even get

If this had happened before, Julian would have darkened at once. This time, however, he merely coughed lightly, almost without realizing it.Sydney assumed Raymond was joking. She curved her lips into a smile and teased him. "Raymond, you're suddenly so friendly. I'm not really used to it."Among Julian's circle of friends, Raymond had always liked her the least. After knowing each other for so many years, they were not even connected on social media.When she added Caleb and the others back then, she had mentioned it to Raymond in person, only to receive a flat rejection.Raymond's gaze flicked over and caught the faint, barely concealed schadenfreude in Julian's eyes. He shot him a sideways look, then replied sourly, "Maybe only Jules can make you call me Ray willingly."The remark carried a sharp edge, though that kind of jealousy was not really his place.Whether it was Raymond himself or the Huttons as a whole, they owed Julian their thanks for protecting Sydney all these ye

Sydney was full of questions, yet no new message came through for a long time.She got out of bed and was about to go downstairs to tell Julian when her phone rang again.Her entire body tensed. When she saw the caller ID, her racing heart gradually settled. She answered."Hello, Mr. Clifford.""Dr. Wilson." Jeremiah's voice carried its usual mild warmth. "Would you like me to arrange a car to pick you up for tomorrow evening's charity gala?"'The charity gala…' Sydney froze for a beat before it registered. The Huttons' charity gala was tomorrow night.Over the past two days, her thoughts had been consumed by Eliana. She had completely forgotten about it.As soon as she remembered, hesitation surfaced.Tomorrow morning, Ewan's analysis results would be released. After that, developing the antidote would become a race against time. No matter how important tomorrow night might be, it could not compare to Eliana's condition.As for those so-called biological parents she had yet t

Raymond had no strength left to argue. The three siblings asked Florence a few more questions about Sydney's condition and finally felt reassured.James then mentioned the gala scheduled for the following evening. "Will Sydney attend?"Diana shook her head. "Probably not." The original plan had been to use the gala, with its gathering of high-society figures, to disown Megan completely and formally announce Sydney's identity.But with Eliana hospitalized at such a critical moment, Sydney was unlikely to have any interest in attending a social event.That was also why Florence had not mentioned the gala when she went to Delta Mansion that evening. She did not want to put Sydney in a difficult position. Unless the antidote could be obtained and delivered to the hospital before the gala.…Elsewhere, Jeremiah was equally troubled.What could be more important than reuniting with one's biological parents?His instincts told him that tomorrow night presented the best opportunity t

The living room grew so quiet that a pin dropping would have been heard.In one another's eyes, the Huttons saw the same storm of feelings: relief, the joy of something long lost finally returning, and a crushing heartache that came with it.They had long suspected that Sydney was Vee. Even so, none of them could silence the fear of that 1-in-10,000 chance.What if they were wrong again? They were not.Years of yearning had finally found an answer. Their Vee was not only alive, but gentle, composed, independent, and exceptional. The joy was overwhelming. The ache was no less so.Florence's tears would not stop.Raymond sprang to his feet. "I'm going to find Sydney right now!"There was no way he could remain seated."Sit down." Diana drew a steadying breath, forcing down the surge of joy in her chest. "We deal with the mess at home tonight. Then we bring her back properly."Everyone knew who she meant by "the mess." It was Penelope and Megan.James nodded and turned to Raymon
