Chapter 411: Isn't It Better to Be Confused?

Tina finished packing her luggage and looked back at Whispering Pines. From this point on, the Reed family had nothing to do with her. Just as Tina was about to leave, Muff couldn't hold back and called out to her, "Tina... what kind of punishment will he face?"

Tina stopped in her tracks, her peach blossom eyes shimmering with a smile as she glanced back at the now aged face. "The law will punish him for his deeds. As for the severity, it depends on the gravity of his crimes." After speaking, Tina looked at Muff, her lips slightly curving up. "No wonder the Reed family has stood strong for a century. Muff, your ability to feign ignorance has indeed captured its essence." Muff narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"

Tina lifted her delicate, fair finger, tucking a stray hair behind her ear, her smile bewitching. "I'm not Jasper's biological daughter, you've known that for a long time, haven't you?"

Muff's pupils shook slightly, then slowly revealed his true self, mixed with a unique cunning. "You are frighteningly clever. It's a pity you're not my biological granddaughter. If you were, I would have handed over the headship of the Reed family to you."

He believed that with Tina, the Reed family could continue to thrive for another century. Tina's smile became even more enchanting. "It's a pity, your Reed family, I'm not interested in it."

After a pause, she added, "Muff, sometimes it's better to be a bit confused in life; otherwise, it's exhausting, don't you think?"

It must be said that Muff had a broad range in his roles. He could play the formidable patriarch who intimidated the entire family, the deeply affectionate father, and even the carefree hermit. Even just now, all his deep affection for Jasper was an act.

When was he not performing? Perhaps only when he mentioned Sydney would he show a moment of truth.
