“Did you hear me?” Darcie asked firmly when Jaylene didn’t respond.

Jaylene quickly replied, “Yes, I heard and remember.”

As she looked at Darcie’s pale face, a thought crossed her mind. Before she could stop herself, she softly asked, “Mom, was Stella taken away by mistake, or was it on purpose?”

Darcie paused and looked at her. “Do you think there are so many accidents in this world?”

Jaylene’s eyes widened in shock, and she was speechless for a long time.

Darcie placed the documents neatly on her desk, stood up, and walked over to Jaylene, gently straightening her dress. “Some people are born into their fate, while others have to fight for it. I work hard so that you won’t have to struggle like I did, but you can’t be too satisfied with things as they are. Do you understand?”

Jaylene’s fingers trembled, and after a long pause, she whispered hoarsely, “I understand.”

She had always thought Stella’s arrival took away everything that should have been hers, but now she realized the love and resources she enjoyed were actually taken from Stella.

If Stella hadn’t been taken away by mistake, would her mother have married her father? Would she have grown up in the Saun family?

The answers to these questions were the ones Jaylene feared the most.

Meanwhile, Tatiana hung up the phone. Aaron, unable to hold back, said, “Give me the phone. I want to call her back.”

Tatiana moved the phone out of his reach. “No, you can’t call her back now.”
