Chapter 1595: Chapter 1595: Kneeling in Front of the Sickbed to Agree
The blood-soaked past—how could she possibly forget?
These things, she could never erase from her mory. Qiana had once been her best friend.
Co to think of it, she had even t Yana Yale before.
Probably at a few banquets. Although the details had grown hazy, Yana Yale was stunningly beautiful—that kind of beauty you only needed to see once to rember forever. Even just sitting quietly, she could draw countless eyes.
Because of that, after all these years, Yana Yale still left a lasting impression on her.
And now, thinking about it, Jasmine Yale and Yana Yale… they did look so alike. The sa eyebrows, the sa facial features, even the sa temperant.
As for Hadley Xinez… she rembered him too.
A man with good family background, good looks, and talent—such n always stood out in a crowd. Hadley Xinez was one of them.
In retrospect, their daughter truly inherited every one of their best qualities.
“You’re not lying to ?” Aunt May rubbed her temples hard, her voice trembling slightly.
After all, she was soone with life experience. It didn’t take her too long to rein in her emotions, stopping the incredible waves of disbelief from spiraling out of control.
Still, her chest and body felt as though they were entangled in underwater weeds. There was a suffocating sensation, even breathing ca with pain.
Every cell in her body seed steeped in an indescribable heaviness.
“How would I dare to lie to you, Aunt May?” Lana Fern massaged her shoulders.
She had spent so much effort digging into these matters, and she hadn’t expected… such a surprise.
One had to admit that Sylvan Cheney’s thods were brilliant. He had hidden this piece of the past so seamlessly. But alas, as long as certain individuals existed who shouldn’t, these secrets could never remain under wraps forever.
Following leads through the Zahir Family, she had uncovered the entire buried past.
Yana Yale, in Landon, was one of the top socialites of her day. But in Willow Wave City, no one knew her na.
As a result, Yana Yale and Kaine Zahir had lived together for several years without the Zahir Family ever discovering her true identity.
“Are you truly not lying to ? Sothing as colossal as this…” Aunt May’s throat tightened in anguish, her voice coarse, tainted with raspiness. “I’m old now; I can’t handle this kind of joke.”
“Aunt May, you yourself called it a major matter. Since it’s so important, how would I dare joke with you? I wasn’t originally planning on saying anything. But just now, when I saw Miss Yale, it suddenly reminded of all this. I even assud you already knew.”
“I didn’t.”
“Ah? Then I’ve been too ddleso. I thought Mr. Cheney treated you like his very own aunt and would tell you everything, especially sothing as monuntal as a marriage like this. Ah, I spoke out of turn. Forgive , Aunt May—this was my oversight.” Lana Fern stood behind her, watching the changes in Aunt May’s expression.
She observed the transitions from shock and disbelief to a gradual return to calm. But even so, beneath the composed surface, astonishnt still glimred faintly in her eyes.
Aunt May had to admit, this news hit her like a bolt from the blue. She was stunned, entirely dumbfounded.
She had thought that the Xinez Family’s bloodline had been wiped out long ago. After all, with Sylvan Cheney’s abilities, exterminating a family of rivals was hardly an incredible feat.
Moreover, when Qiana’s depression worsened to the point where she slit her wrists in a suicide attempt and had to be rescued, she had always told the teenaged Sylvan Cheney that even if she had to scour heaven and earth, she would find every last mber of the Xinez Family and offer their blood as a sacrifice to the Cheney Family.
At that ti, Sylvan Cheney, barely twelve or thirteen years old, had knelt at her bedside and promised her.
Who could have imagined…
Truly, no one could have.
Aunt May lowered her head, resting her hand against her forehead, and let out a long, drawn-out sigh in her heart.
Debt left by fate or a disastrous entanglent?
She had really believed that everyone from the Xinez Family was long gone.
But who would have thought that Hadley Xinez and Yana Yale’s daughter was still alive, and moreover…
