When fate plays its hand (Miranda)

Chapter 0734

Fiona was deeply grateful now that she had followed Sam’s advice and continued treatment for her eyesight and general health. Her vision had gradually improved, allowing her to clearly see how much her granddaughter resembled her daughter.

Meanwhile, Mindy was surprised to learn that her parents and Miranda had already met before. Miranda recounted their first encounter, and Aren couldn’t help but sigh

“Your mother and I have searched for you for so many years,” he said, “traveling all across the country and even abroad. Who would’ve thought we were so close all along and even missed you twice? Thankfully, this time, we didn’t miss you again.”

At this, Fiona recalled how Miranda and Sam had known each other for even longer. It seemed like fate had been quietly at work all along

“Mimi,” Fiona said with a smile, “you know, Sam is actually your cousin. And all these years, he didn’t have the slightest clue..”

Sam had been quiet the entire time. His face was tense, and his expression was unreadable. Miranda paused briefly, then quickly caught on. She smiled and called out, “Hi, cousin.”

Sam’s fists clenched, and his emotions darkened further. Fiona didn’t notice his reaction and continued cheerfully, “If Sam had been a little more observant, maybe we would’ve reunited much earlier.”

Aren waved her off, smiling. “Let’s not talk like that. The fact that Sam and Mimi had this kind of connection s is already a blessing We shouldn’t ask for more.”

“Yes, yes, you’re right. Things are already wonderful now Truly wonderful ”

For them, finding Mindy in their lifetime felt like a miracle. How could they dare ask for anything more?

Miranda smiled faintly as she held her cup, while Sam kept his head down, his silence uncharacteristic and unsettling

Mindy, too, was surprised by the connection between the two, but her focus was elsewhere. She wanted to know what had happened over all these years. Surprisingly, most of her memories of her parents had largely returned
