She tried her best to keep her expression light, even managed a slight smile when she noticed his gesture.

She brought me back to Sunburst City, and she placed me in the care of the Reynolds family. It’s understandable. Any woman would struggle to face a situation like this. Later, she went to Starhaven and became a completely different person. She was taking revenge on my dad, and at the same time, venting her own anger and dissatisfaction. But she was so stupid. My dad was already dead. What was the point of this revenge?”
