The Evans family knew that their ‘Benefactor’ was the same person as the ‘Benefactor’ of the Joules family. However, when Desmond learned that the mysterious figure behind it all was, in fact, his long-lost nephew, missing for twenty years, it felt almost too incredible to believe.

Viola couldn’t keep the secret any longer and spoke nonchalantly, “During the Rejuvenation Pill auction, Mr. Joules planned to purchase a pill, but unexpectedly, his son schemed to seize the power. I had some friendship with Miss Joules, so I helped her and her grandfather.”

“Yes, Yes,” Desmond replied, snapping back to the conversation. “It’s astonishing! I used to hear my brother-in-law talk about these extraordinary matters and I must admit, I was a little dismissive.

Viola eagerly inquired, “Uncle, could you tell me more about it? Why did my father delve into these things?”

Back then, he frequently kept an eye on the antique and auction markets in the US. If he came across Chinese cultural relics that were lost abroad, he would
