All the Chapmans were used to complying with Sisley’s directives without question.

Sisley said, “Alice’s pregnancy was an accident, and it had nothing to do with us. It’s entirely her fault since she led a messy life! Besides, it was Mr. Chapman who kicked her out of the family. It has nothing to do with us. If you start poking around into the past or accusing us of hiding any secrets, you’ll have to deal with me!”

Hera nudged Sisley’s arm and asked softly, “Mom, what exactly happened?”

“Nothing happened.” Sisley looked tensed. Everything that happened in the past is better left buried! If Ashlyn finds out about it, given her status and abilities, she’ll definitely seek revenge against us!

Sisley, who was still in shock, let out a long breath as she tried to compose herself. “You’re just a child. There are things you shouldn’t know.”

She believed Ashlyn, too, had no idea what happened. We’ll be safe as long as she’s not aware of the past.

Meanwhile, in the hotel, Ryan would retrieve the red jade he had acquired from the Chapman family’s auction and look at it once in a while.

Looking at the red jade made him feel as if he was looking at his sister during his childhood days. I must figure out the relationship between Mary and her daughter!
