Chapter 1360:

“Why?” Serena finally broke her silence.

She had always thought her troubles stemmed from discovering Brinley’s affair with Carlos, which led to her being despised, bullied, and mistreated, particularly after Brinley had children. But as she listened more, a growing sense of something being wrong settled within her. She could feel there was an important reason behind everything, though she didn’t yet understand it.

Vera and Lydia stood by, observing Serena’s slightly quivering eyelashes. Unable to withstand the sight, they turned away, tears welling up in their eyes.

Valentin said softly, “Serena, you are actually a child of the Happer family from Baythorn. The Happer family intended to use you as a bargaining tool, and Samson wanted to leverage your presence to solidify his inheritance of the Fletcher family’s estate.”

At this revelation, Serena’s eyes widened in shock. She gazed down at Valentin, noting the genuine remorse in his clouded eyes, feeling a sharp pain in her heart. She was from the Happer family in Baythorn? How could she belong to them? As a member of the Shadow Moon Society’s intelligence team, she had never come across any mention of the Happer family missing a child, nor was there any record of such a search in the data network.

“Have you ever questioned why you have no memories from before you were ten at the orphanage?” Valentin lay still, his gaze fixed quietly on Serena.

Serena’s body shook, and she staggered back a few steps, bewildered. Indeed, her memories before age ten were blank, starting only when she later joined the Fletcher family.
