Daphne's POV

I also attended John's funeral.

Sitting in a wheelchair, I watched from a distance as Derek held an umbrella for Tabitha. The scene of them standing together while snow fell all around them looked so dreamlike as if they were the prince and princess in some fairy tale.

In the past few days, I asked Derek many times about John's whereabouts, but he never spilled a word.

It wasn't until this morning that I heard the news of John, yet, it was about his death.

I couldn't even get to say goodbye to him before he died, and he never knew that I was his biological daughter.

Derek was ruthless indeed.

It was the punishment for my sin, he said.

But what did I do wrong?

I'd been kept in the dark for so many years. And now, both of my parents tragically died because of me, and I was tormented by guilt every single day.

At first, I felt like the luckiest person on earth.

I had a venerable father, a loving mother, and a caring fi

    Tabitha wanted to cover her ears, listening to the vulgar language coming from inside the room.She saw Daphne covering her face with both hands. Tears streamed silently through her fingers. She kept whispering Derek's name, over and over.What a pair of psychos.Derek arrived quickly. Tabitha had planned to leave and come back another day.She felt it would be weird to run into Derek in this situation.But before she could say goodbye to Alpha Elliott, Derek rushed in with a couple of his people.Years ago, Daphne had done so many terrible things, causing the deaths of Mark and his wife and John. Alpha Elliott was helpless.Since the Amber's Eye Pack was clearly in the wrong, all he could do was let Derek break the engagement.For years, Daphne tried to win Derek back and make up for her mistakes, but Derek had blocked her and was unreachable.Now, getting to see Derek, even briefly, was exciting for both Daphne and Alpha Elliott.If Derek hadn't refused the inheritance, he would hav

    Derek immediately hung up.Daphne's sickly face lit up instantly, like a dying person's last surge of energy.Tabitha glanced at Calvin, who intentionally looked away.But the cold glint in his eyes was caught by Tabitha."Looks like Derek isn't the only one who's crazy."Daphne's face was full of joy. She grabbed Alpha Elliott's hand. "Grandpa, did you hear that? Derek is coming to see me! This outfit is too old. I need to wear a new dress."Tabitha took the opportunity to speak up. "Since Miss Sutton is so busy, I'm leaving now."Everyone immediately panicked when they heard Tabitha was leaving."No, no! I worked so hard to find you! You can't leave! My granddaughter's leg depends on you!" Alpha Elliott pleaded anxiously."Yes, Dr. Vanessa, please check her leg first! Miss Sutton, this is Dr. Vanessa, the one I told you about. She's excellent and specializes in multiple fields! She just said she could get you back on y

    "Don't worry, treating patients is my job," Tabitha said coolly, methodically cleaning and stitching Daphne's wounds.Without anesthesia, the needle pierced Daphne's wrist repeatedly.Even though Daphne wanted to die, the physical pain was too much. She winced, teeth clenched."Does it hurt?" Tabitha suddenly asked."No kidding! If I stuck you with a needle, would you feel nothing?" Daphne shot back, biting her words.She hadn't had a good life these past few years, but her temper was just as volatile as before.Tabitha lowered her eyes, a cold smile playing on her lips. This was nothing.That winter, she had dragged her own wounded body to the hospital for stitches, needle by needle. It was far more painful than this.Soon, Tabitha finished treating Daphne's wrist.Seeing Daphne's soaked robe, she ordered, "Find her a clean set of clothes to change into.""Right away. Dr. Vanessa, you've had a long trip. Why don'

    Even though Daphne had lost her right to succession, the Amber's Eye Pack still supported her. Her living expenses and quality of life were the same as before.The moment Tabitha entered the estate, a man she didn't know approached her. "You must be Dr. Vanessa? I've heard so much about you. Please, save my sister."Tabitha stopped. She had never seen this man when she was part of the Amber's Eye Pack.Judging by his outfit, he was likely Calvin, the adopted heir from the side branch."I'll do my best," Tabitha replied.Calvin looked delicate, with fair skin. If he wore a vintage suit, he would look like a refined scholar.He seemed clean-cut and not like someone who was plotting anything.Yet, the fact that he was chosen as the heir meant he wasn't simple.Even though Amber's Eye was declining, Alpha Elliott still carried weight. He wasn't to be underestimated.Tabitha hadn't seen Daphne in years. She had no idea what s

    Leopold rubbed the ring Gloria left behind. His eyes were deep and contemplative. He was definitely thinking hard."It's been almost four years. She really had the nerve to keep hiding like this."At a seaside restaurant in Seattle, Tabitha spoke softly, sharing her past.The details that were once cold facts in documents now seemed to take on warmth as she told her story.When she reached the emotional parts, Tabitha's eyes turned red, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall."Cedrick, thank you for listening. I've been alone for so many years. No family, no friends. Sometimes I just want someone to talk to, but there's no one. That's why I always messaged you. You must think I'm super annoying, right?"Austin finally understood why she had so much to say.She was Tabitha.He thought back to the countless messages he had received. He had always been cold toward her, but for her, he might have been her only comfort.

They heard Austin was demoted after a failed mission.When the organization found out he was taking private jobs, they finally kicked him out.Lisa's request was one of those small, private jobs—and he just happened to cross paths with Tabitha.He had that old leg injury back then.
