"I am. How did you know me?" Kelly asked, surprised.

The butler welcomed her inside. "The new owner bought this place intending to surprise you for your birthday, but you hadn't come back."

He led Kelly through the familiar yard. It was mostly unchanged, except for the crabapple tree in the corner that seemed freshly planted.

"There used to be an old crabapple tree here. It was cut down by the previous owner, but the new master restored it based on old photographs," explained the butler, smiling.

Kelly felt a wave of nostalgia as she looked at the crabapple tree.

As a child, she loved watching ants under the crabapple tree at her grandparents' house.

When she was eight, she had posed under that crabapple tree in a princess dress for a photo.

Fortunately, those photos had been moved to the house she had bought with Eric when they got married, so they had not been lost in the fire. But now, they were tucked away in the basement by Regina.

"The inside hasn't changed much since the previous owner rarely visited. The new owner tried to restore it as much as possible," the butler continued warmly.

Kelly walked into the living room. There were not many of these old buildings left in Seaville and the ones that were preserved held significant cultural value.

Her house, located in the center of this street, was already valued at over 100 million six years ago.

Back then, just after she and Eric had gotten married, Eric had the property appraised and mentioned it was worth over 100 million ...

At that time, Kelly had not really cared about the valuation or considered selling her childhood home.

She had often told Eric how much the house, filled with her childhood memories, meant to her.

Yet, after her accident, to her dismay, Eric went ahead and sold the house.

Whether he wanted to or not, he had not fought to preserve the things she cherished.

He had given in too easily.

On the living room shelf, there was a photograph of Kelly and Zev, taken against

the backdrop of a sunrise at the beach during a recent trip abroad.

Kelly paused, looking at the photograph, her gaze then shifting to the butler.

Since coming back from that trip, Zev had vanished. When had this photo been placed here?

"This photo...
