Chapter 4: Some Findings

After Amber left, Hugo slammed his cup onto the table with fury, "How despicable!"

Jennie poured him a glass of water, trying to calm him, "Alright, don't be angry. That child's heart hasn't been with us for a long time, what's the use of getting angry?" Amber was a child they had adopted eight years ago.

Back then, Hugo was preoccupied with searching for Tina, and after a long search with no leads, he stumbled upon Amber.

She bore a slight resemblance to Tina in her brows and eyes, and Hugo, missing Tina and pitying Amber, decided to adopt her.

Amber was clever, understanding, and sweet-talking, always able to cheer people up.

Elizabeth was completely charmed by Amber.

Two years after they adopted Amber, Elizabeth insisted on raising her personally. In just a few short years, she had become the center of attention in Ensford, stirring the envy of many.

But ever since Amber left with Elizabeth, she looked down on them. Although she didn't show it overtly, her words always had a sting.

Over time, Hugo and Jennie were no fools and came to understand what Amber really meant.

Thus, naturally, their interactions with Amber became less frequent.

"It's all my fault, I never should have adopted her!" Hugo lamented with a heavy heart.

"You had good intentions at the time," Jennie said, glancing at Tina, "The problem now is how to cancel the engagement! It seems mother is determined to have Tina marry into that family, and if we don't agree, she will not let it go easily." "This marriage I will call off, even if it means letting mother take back the house. I refuse to believe that I, a grown man, can't support my wife and child."

Jennie sighed deeply.

She feared that in Ensford, Elizabeth wouldn't allow them a place to stay.

Tina, head bowed, was looking at the content on her phone.
