"You're just too naive. Do you think Granny Quinn and Sirius told us all there is to it? They're both birds of a feather, pushing the blame onto each other just to make themselves look innocent."Having said that, Joshua turned and looked at Samuel. "Since Mr. Quinns had suggested this, I think you know that I've found out the truth."Samuel smiled. "Of course. I'm sure you're well aware of everything that my mother, Sirius, and Quentin did."Joshua smiled, too. "I also found out that you have nothing much to do with it. Are you sure you want to beg mercy on your mother's behalf and get involved in this turmoil?"No amount of mercy-begging would heal the damage dealt in the wake of the deaths of Lucy Hamilton, Granny Lynch, Colin Landry, and all those feuds between the Lynch family and the Landy family.Granny Quinn had done many terrible things to the Lynch family and the Landry family. He had requested Lucas to investigate each of them and recorded them, which resulted in an acc
If a person had died more than 20 years ago, they would never again walk the world of the living no matter how powerful Samuel thought he was.Malcolm sighed and looked at Luna and Joshua apologetically. "My father is just desperate to save my grandmother; that's why he came up with these lies. I—""I'm not lying," interjected Samuel before Malcolm could finish. He then looked at Luna and Joshua and bowed to them. "A priest should not lie, and I am not lying."He mustered a small smile as he stared at the shocked Luna and Joshua. "Remember the two rings you talked about that contained video chips? You thought I was the one who made it after Lucy died, but it wasn't me."Samuel shifted his gaze to stare forward as he added indifferently, "The two rings were made by Lucy herself. I'm sure Joshua knows that she was a jewelry maker."Joshua furrowed and looked at Samuel, puzzled. "It doesn't make sense."If Lucy did not die back then, she would have gone looking for Charles or gone b
"At that time, I thought I had betrayed my initial wishes. The ring was meant to give it to someone from the Lynch family after all. Looking at the way things are now, however…"Samuel glanced at Luna and Joshua. "Perhaps everything is fated, after all. In the end, Luna joins the Lynch family."Luna frowned at Samuel's words.Joshua wound his arm around Luna's shoulder tightly before plainly commenting, "Do you have any evidence to prove what you're saying? If my aunt truly had survived back then…"He sighed and closed his eyes. "I'll allow Granny Quinn peace for her remaining days."It was very clear that the masterminds who planned and killed Lucy were Larry and Sirius. They used Rosalyn as an excuse, found Quentin, and persuaded him to hurt Lucy.Even without Quentin and the Quinn family, they would still come for Lucy.Both Larry and Sirius were just two men with mental problems. They kept saying they did it for Rosalyn, that they were helping the Quinn family to deal with t
'Sean?' Luna's body shivered when she heard that familiar male voice.She subconsciously looked in the direction of the door and, just as she expected, saw Sean, whom Joshua had hired as his driver and mechanic. He was carrying a box and looking around as though searching for someone."Sean, I'm here," Samuel said in response.Sean followed the voice and strode into the room. "Father Samuel, I've brought everything that you asked me. You said you've found my mother's family, so…"He entered the room while talking, and when his eyes landed on Luna and Joshua, he paused.A while later, he mustered a weak smile. "Mr. Lynch, Ms. Luna! Why are you both here?"Joshua smiled and extended his hand to pat Sean's shoulder lightly. "Go to Father Samuel."'If what Samuel said was true, then Sean should be Aunt Lucy's second son!'It made sense now why Sean looked familiar when he first saw him.With Joshua's suggestion, Sean smiled and approached Samuel, passing a box to him as he did. "F
"Who is this fiancee you're talking about? It's not me.""It is you." Jim curled his lips into a smile as he used his uninjured arm to hold Bonnie close to him domineeringly."Since we're on this topic, I want to announce that Bonnie and I will be having our wedding ceremony three days from now. I hope everyone can attend."This announcement had impacted Sean negatively, evident in the way his expression morphed into one of bitterness. It was plain to see how dejected his gaze seemed as he stared at Bonnie with a frown.Bonnie pursed her lips while she tried to break from Jim's arm, hissing, "What are you bullshitting about?""Well, I'm not even lying. Didn't you agree to marry me before I lost my memory?" countered Jim.This effectively stunned Bonnie, who was dazed as she gaped at Jim. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out in the end.She had indeed discussed marriage with Jim before he lost his memory, but he did not believe her and even ignored her. What else cou
Both Jim and Sean were stunned by Samuel's words.Sean gazed at Jim, then at Samuel. "F—Father Samuel, there must be a mistake! How could I and Mr. Landry be…""That's right." Jim frowned. "My mother died twenty years ago, and I can't possibly have a brother. Did my mother rise from the dead?""She didn't rise from the dead. She didn't die."Samuel sighed, took out a disk from the box, and gave it to Malcolm. "Play the video."Malcolm frowned and hesitated before accepting the disk. He found a laptop in the room and turned it on, wanting to play the disk straight from the laptop.Frowning, Lucas passed a small projector to Malcolm, which Malcolm accepted and connected to the laptop.Seconds later, a video started playing on the white wall in front of them, revealing a woman with a pale face, smiling at the camera."Hello everyone, I'm Lucy Hamilton."Jim, still seated, felt his whole body freeze as he stared in disbelief at the woman in the video. He felt like all the joints i
"After Samuel saved me, I lost my memories, and despite him wanting to help me regain my old memories, I refused to let him do so."I didn't have the courage to face my past, nor was I willing to come to terms with the hurt I've caused other people, but most importantly…"Lucy Hamilton sighed and continued, "I broke my vows and fell in love with Richard, the man who took care of me. Because of this, I wasn't willing to return to Charles, the husband with whom I had no memories. That's why…"She closed her eyes. "For the sake of my happiness, as well as me and Richard's son, Sean…I chose to become an irresponsible mother."Even though I had been living in Merchant City all this while, I had never reached out to my son. I never even gave him so much as a hug."Lucy sniffed and wiped the tears from her cheeks. "I can't express how sorry I am for being such a coward. I didn't have the courage to face my past and regain my old memories. If…"She lifted her head to stare straight at th
Jim's voice faltered as he stared at the space in front of him. "She was alive all this while…"His mother, Lucy, had been alive.She had been living in the same city as he was all this while, but even until her death, she had never attempted to see him at all, much less reclaim him!Jim's body started to shake at the thought of this.When he was a child, he thought Rosalyn was his mother, and because of this, he had always been content with his life.However, after discovering that he was not Rosalyn and Charles' son, he started secretly trying to track down his birth mother.The reason he had agreed to help Harvey search for his birth mother was that he did not want Harvey to end up a motherless child like him.However, no matter how hard he tried, Jim could not find any trace of his mother's true identity.It was only after Rosalyn volunteered this information that he finally found out the truth.Rosalyn had been honest with him about everything, including how jealous she h
