"But..."
Sean looked at Charles and then at Jim, who was a little further from him.
"Mother abandoned both you and Jim! If..." He pursed his lips.
"If Mother had just faced you and Jim, if she hadn't hidden herself, perhaps the Landry family and the
Lynch family wouldn't have suffered such terrible losses."
From Samuel's conversation with the others, Sean finally understood everything.
The fight and feud between the Landry and Lynch families were rooted because of his mother, Lucy
Hamilton.
If she had only sought her memory and faced it bravely, perhaps both families would not be embroiled
in much bitterness and tragedy like they were at present.
After so many years, both families had collided many times in their business, and Colin was dead
because of it.
His mother was partly responsible for everything that had happened.
Even with all this, Charles decided to forgive his mother so easily?
"The past is in the past," said Rosalyn gently, smiling as she continued to wipe the blood away from
Jim's nose.
"What else can we do apart from forgiving? Do we need to dig your mother's grave and scold her dead
body? Should we blame you and Jim for her mistakes and ask the two of you to compensate for it? Her
gentle smile never left her face as she kindly added, "What she did had nothing to do with both of
you.Besides, it is human nature to hide from being harmed.After experiencing that incident, she only
wanted to protect herself and live a quiet, peaceful life.There's nothing wrong with that.If there were
anyone to blame..."
Rosalyn sighed.
"You should blame me and Charles.He underestimated the situation too easily, and I have too much
faith in my junior."
Rosalyn never expected that the people who had hurt Lucy were Sirius and Quentin; one was a senior
that she looked up to, and the other was a junior she considered like her brother.
Both of them used her and told everyone that they did it for Rosalyn's best interest.
If anyone wanted to find the root cause of the entire incident, she was also one of the accomplices for
being too lenient on Sirius Quentin.
Thus, it was useless to get to the bottom of it.
Under those circumstances, everyone had chosen the best choice for themselves.It was just too bad
that...
Rosalyn lifted her head, her gaze alternating between Jim and Sean, and found them to be much alike,
feature-wise.
She shook her head.It was a shame that such a rift had formed between the brothers.
With that thought, she walked toward Sean.
As the elegant-looking woman slowly approached him, Sean knew he was supposed to turn and leave,
especially when this woman was once his mother's love rival and had nothing to do with him.
Sean had no idea, however, why his legs stiffened like iron steel, and he found himself unable to move.
He watched as Rosalyn slowly got closer and recalled the image of her wiping the blood off of Jim's
nose.
‘How...nice would it be if she was my mother, ' thought Sean.All he could remember was how his
mother missed her 'Jimmy'.
She had never cared for him at all.
"Does it hurt?"
Suddenly, Rosalyn's voice reeled Sean's attention back to reality.He regained his senses and looked
into Rosalyn's gentle eyes.
Rosalyn lifted her head and saw the red mark on Sean's neck, one caused by Jim choking him,
immediately feeling bad for Sean.
