Amanda had initially not wanted to ask, but Yacob’s words sparked her curiosity. “May I ask how Grace’s brother died? How gruesome was it, exactly? Of course, if it’s inconvenient for you to talk about it, forget what I asked.”

She was not intentionally prying into someone’s privacy; she was simply curious. Yacob seemed reluctant to bring it up, so she decided not to push further and prepared to turn around and get some more sleep. After all, she could not leave anyway.

Suddenly, his voice sounded behind her..

“When Mr. Jensly Winters’ enemy wanted to kidnap Mr. Winters, and we were living in constant danger. Mr. Jensly came up with a plan for Yelan to disguise himself as Mr. Winters, to become his substitute until the officers captured that deranged enemy. But…”

Amanda stopped in her tracks, slowly turning her body and continuing his words, “But before the officers. could catch the culprit, Yelan was kidnapped and treated as Mr. Jensly’s son. He suffered unimaginable torture, didn’t he?”

He nodded, and her expression became somewhat sorrowful.

“It was more than just torture; it was a level of cruelty beyond imagination. By the time we arrived, he had been broken beyond recognition. His fingers were cut off, both feet severed. His eyeballs were gouged out, and his ears were sliced off. He was barely clinging to life, waiting for Mr. Winters to come, hoping to entrust his sister to him for care…

Amanda could not help but cover her mouth, her eyes filled with horror. Just hearing these descriptions was so painful that she could not help but feel like crying. How did Yelan endure until they arrived? It’s so tragic…..

Yacob forced a bitter smile. That’s why Mr. Winters feels indebted to Yelan. During that time, Mr. Winters often had nightmares. That’s why he tries to make it up to Grace for everything because it was truly horrifying…

She seemed to have a faint understanding of the pain in Elias’ heart.

He continued, “Because of Yelan, Mr. Winters has a strained relationship with his parents. He believes that his father’s decision led to Yelan’s demise, and he doesn’t even consider Yelan’s life as a human life.”

Amanda fell silent.

Indeed, it seemed that way. To be so ruthless, there had to be deep-rooted hatred.
