However, there was a sense of uneasiness in my heart. I felt like this matter might be very closely related to me.

It wasn't just because I had witnessed a small crime, rather, I felt like all these that were happening must have been significantly related to me in one way or another

Suddenly, I remembered something Jack did before he was thrown in prison. At that time, when he was building his career, he did a lot of bad things and made a lot of enemies in the business world.

I had a sense of foreboding in my heart. The past was starting to unveil, like the view after a sandstorm, as it became clearer before my eyes.

"Before my father was thrown in prison, he wanted to use me as leverage to try to enter into marriage alliances with many people."

He felt that having a pretty daughter was some form of leverage for him. He wanted to use me so he could have more relations with others and from there, get more profit.

"If that's really the case, Eve, this whole thing may be more complicated than you think. Don't be afraid, we'll face this together. Your father's actions in the past shouldn't be your burden to bear today."

His words were firm yet warm, like a ray of light piercing through the gloomy clouds in my heart.
