Love at the Wrong Table

Chapter 2242 Bound by Blood

Santiago didn’t acknowledge Yuna’s bow. His sharp gaze was locked on Teddy, his voice edged with urgency. “Teddy… what the hell is this?”

Teddy sighed, shaking his head dramatically. “Oh, Santiago, it’s a long story…

He waved a hand, brushing past the weight of the moment. “But I’ll make it short for you. When Jane and Yuna fell into the sea all those years ago, they survived. I spent years searching downstream, and against all odds, I found her. I brought her back.”

The night was pure chaos–ferocious waves and sharp rocks. It was nearly impossible to survive that fall, even for someone as strong as I am.

He struggled to process it, his gut churning with disbelief. How could she have made it out alive?

After the shock settled, suspicion crept into his voice.

Teddy smirked. “Of course, I have proof. Do you think I’d say something this big without it?”

The moment he felt the cool surface, his breath hitched.

“This… this is Jane’s pendant.” Santiago’s fingers traced over its familiar patterns, his chest tightening.

His hands trembled.

His heart pounded as emotions he had buried for decades surged back to the surface.
