The night in Eastcliff was crisp and cold.
Charlie Wadey in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
His past, present, and future intertwined in his mind like the meeting of three rivers, leaving him in turmoil.
Meanwhile, thousands of kilometers away, in a blue-brick courtyard of a temple on Putuo Mountain, a striking woman sat on a rattan chair, gazing at the vast, starry sky.
She possessed delicate features and an extraordinary presence. Though more than fifty years had passed, time had left only a few fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
This woman was Charlie Wade’s biological mother, Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ).
Just then, an elderly but strong and agile woman entered the courtyard swiftly and said respectfully, “Madam, Sihai—the subordinate stationed at the Wade family—reports that the master of the Wade family had a long conversation with Charlie today.”
“Oh?” Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) asked curiously. “What did my father-inw discuss with Charlie?”
The woman replied respectfully, “Madam, they talked about Miss Sun.”
“Stefanie.” A gentle smile appeared on Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom )’s face. “What did they say about her?”
The woman then ryed the conversation in detail.
The more Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) listened, the more surprised she became. Finally, she couldn’t help but exim, “Orrin Sun certainly has good intentions.”
The woman nodded. “I agree. The Sun family’s treatment of the young master is truly admirable.”
Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) sighed. “My father-inw is right. One day, Charlie will return to the Wade family and reim his ce in the public eye as the heir. When that happens, ire may not be able to ept it.”
The woman looked at her and asked, “Madam, what do you believe is the best solution to this matter?”
Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom )’s expression froze as she pondered for a long time before speaking seriously, “There is more than one optimal solution, but maintaining the status quo is not one of them.”
The elderly woman quickly asked, “Do you mean that the young master and ire are not suitable for each other?”
“Yes.” Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) nodded.
After a brief pause, she sighed and said, “In my opinion, their rtionship is far from pure and carries too many hidden dangers. Once Charlie resolves the issue with Wu Feiyan and returns to the Wade family, he will be embraced by thebined power of the Wade family, the An family, and his own strength. At that point, he will be the brightest rising star in the world. If news of his divorce from ire breaks at that time, it would not bode well for him.”
The elderly woman nodded and asked respectfully, “Then, Madam, do you have a solution?”
Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) remained silent for a moment before replying, “ire’s parents are unpredictable factors, but ire herself may still be influenced. I wonder if there’s a way for her to discover Charlie’s true identity by chance?”
“Ah?!”
The elderly woman asked nervously, “If she learns the young master’s true background, wouldn’t that put him in danger?”
Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) spoke seriously, “That’s why it must be carefully controlled. If ire learns of Charlie’s identity, realizes he has deceived her, and understands the weight of the mission he carries, what do you think she would do?”
The elderly woman thought for a moment and replied, “She would likely choose to divorce the young master, wouldn’t she?”
“Exactly.” Lydia (Ava) ( Charlie’s mom ) nodded. “If her personality is genuine and not an act, then given her temperament, she will most likely walk away. On one hand, she would be disillusioned by the years of deception; on the other, she would recognize the deep-seated blood feud behind Charlie’s life. If she truly loves him, I believe she would choose to confront him, but ultimately, she would leave—quietly, taking the secret with her, without even telling her parents.”<fna16e> Read full story at FιndＮovel</fna16e>
