Reflecting on it now, the circumstances of her father in her previous life were strikingly similar to the situation of Cheryl’s father at this moment.

In Madelyn’s previous life, the ones who had plotted against her father were Regina and her daughter, Eunice. Could it be possible then, that the person who plotted against Rupert was also someone close to him?

Thinking of this, Madelyn’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Madelyn, has your father been closely associating with anyone recently?”
