NovelOnlineChapter 1754:
After a pause, he continued, “You likely remain unaware of the extraordinary position Carola occupies within the
Happer family. Throughout her father’s generation and the one that preceded it, no daughters graced the family
line. Carola emerged as the first and only female during that era. The moment she was born, the entire Happer
family erupted in unprecedented celebration. Her grandfather, who commanded the family empire at that time,
bestowed upon her twenty percent of the business shares as a birth gift.”
Lucas looked at Belinda. “To illustrate this remarkable situation, consider that even though Nolan currently
serves as the CEO of Happer Group, he merely has thirteen percent of the shares. This should paint a clear
picture of how treasured Carola is in the family. And it extends far beyond just her grandfather's devotion to her;
her father and two brothers shower her with complete adoration as well. So when they learned of the incident,
the whole family chere to see her.”
Following Lucas’ comprehensive explanation, Belinda nodded with dawning realization. These intricate family
dynamics had remained completely hidden from her awareness before.

At that moment, Belinda asked Lucas, “Will you remain hwithtomorrow?”
“Of course,” Lucas replied without hesitation. “I'll arrange for Gordon to transport my work directly to the
house.”
“I appreciate that tremendously,” Belinda replied, her smile blooming as she lifted herself slightly to plant a
tender kiss on Lucas’ cheek.
Lucas’ mouth curved into a warm smile, and he leaned down to return the gentle gesture, pressing his lips softly
against Belinda’s cheek.
Drawing Belinda closer into his protective embrace, Lucas appeared to recall something significant. His voice
dropped to a low, gravelly whisper. “Gordon has completed the investigation concerning my sister.”
At this revelation, Belinda’s curiosity sparked immediately as she asked, “What did he find?”

“Absolutely nothing,” Lucas replied, his expression hardening into something cold.
Belinda detected the underlying implications threading through his words. Her long lashes trembled slightly as
she asked, “Nothing? Does this suggest that...”
Lucas’ voice carried a deep resonance as he explained, “Every single trace of what transpired—from the moment
my sister conceived until she delivered her child—has been systematically and deliberately erased.”
“Erased?” Belinda’s eyes widened with genuine shock.
“Precisely,” Lucas said with a slight nod, releasing a scoff. “But this only suggests that my sister has something
to hide. If circumstances had unfolded naturally, and Faye had entered this world under completely normal
conditions, what possible reason would drive my sister to erase every trace of that period? Doesn't this cover-up
only serve to raise suspicions?”
After a brief moment of reflection, Belinda gave a small nod. “You're right. That is far too suspicious.”
She paused, her voice lowering slightly. “It really does seem now that there’s something odd about Faye’s
parentage.”
Lucas said nothing, but the silence between them spoke volumes; he thought the same.
