"Yes, Colin Tanner," Xylle said softly, her head lowered, her eyes glimmering with a touch of sadness. "After we returned from Yeternia, the Tanner family took me back to Zovince. That's when I met my uncle, Teddy, He was very kind to me, always wearing a gentle smile. It was he who told me that I was the daughter of his late brother, Colin."

Emmanuel didn't interrupt her story, even though he didn't believe Teddy was as benevolent as he appeared. He just wanted to hear the full story first. "Twenty years ago, there was a tragedy within the Tanner family," Xylie continued. "My father was killed under mysterious circumstances, but before his death, he made arrangements to have me taken far away from Zovince

She finished the story, though it was clear she didn't know all the details. Emmanuel didn't press her for more but instead asked, "Have you heard that Teddy might have killed your father to take control of the family's vast empire?"

Xylie nodded slightly. "I'm not completely naive. Since returning to Zovince, I haven't had to go to school or work, and though I've been watched most of the time, I've managed to learn a lot about the Tanner family. I've heard whispers of what you just said, but I've kept my own opinion. Uncle Teddy has shown me photos and records, proving that he and my father had a clase relationship. He's always been so kind to me that I find it hard to believe those rumors." 79%

Emmanuel didn't push the issue further. After all, there was never any solid. evidence of Teddy killing his brother. Even if there had been whispers back then, no one had ever produced real proof.

"Is that what you wanted to tell me, Emmanuel?" Xylie asked, her curiosity piqued. "Why are you in Zovince?"

Women, even shy and reserved ones, were always curious about the men they admired, and Xylie was no different.

"One of the main reasons I'm here is to deal with Teddy Tanner," Emmanuel replied, not hiding his intentions.

"What?" Xylie's eyes widened in shoek:
