Bianca shook her head to dismiss the unpleasant thought. Why did I think about them? It makes my
blood boil in rage.
“Old Mrs. Yates, if you fancy, you can have her be your granddaughter. Alternatively, I think Mr. Yates…
If that happens, she’ll still be your child but in a different sense.”
Matilda was not blind. She was so observant that she noticed how Ryan protected Ashlyn at the
banquet.
Ryan had remained chaste for many years, never engaging in romantic relationships nor attending
blind dates that Bianca had set up for him. All he ever did was spend time with his piano, which made
Bianca very anxious.
It’s almost time for Mr. Yates to return to the air force for his training. Once he’s in the army, the chance
of him meeting a suitable girl would be as good as none.
“Just take a look at how lovey-dovey she and Lucas are. Lucas taught Mary a lesson on Ashlyn’s
behalf, whereas Ashlyn went all out to help him locate Ian. Oh my, what has gotten into me? Lucas has
humiliated the Yates, yet I’m only enraged by Mary. I just can’t bring myself to be angry at Ashlyn and
Lucas.”
Bianca sighed once more. Disappointment toward her own family members arose in her heart. At the
same time, she was overwhelmed by her adoration and longing for Ashlyn.
The conflicting emotions came rushing at her like a flood, suffocating her and making her heart throb
with pain.
“If only I had known the true colors of both the mother and the daughter, I… wouldn’t…”
“Don’t say that, Mrs. Yates. Blood is thicker than water, regardless. No matter how good Ashlyn is,
she’s still an outsider.” Matilda consoled her, “Moreover, rumor has it that she’s secretly married to Mr.
Nolan, and then there are talks about them about getting a divorce. Should I get someone to
investigate further? To find out if they’re still married?”
“That sounds good. Please go ahead and investigate it. If she’s still single… It won’t be a bad idea to
pair her up with Ryan.”
The heaviness in Bianca’s heart finally dispersed. “Hurry up and get it done.”
“Noted.”
After leaving the mansion, Matilda’s servile attitude was replaced with a sneer as she disappeared into
the night.
In the meantime, Ryan was a different person back at his mansion.
Gone was the high-spirited and vigorous man people saw at the banquet. On the contrary, he looked
quite drained and worn out. Even the streak of blue hair covering his forehead exuded a hint of
weariness.
His mansion was at the very far end of the Count’s Mansion, the quietest unit yet the most luxurious
one.
Because he liked playing the piano, he relished the silence.
It was already late at night, but all of Ashlyn’s expressions kept playing in his head.
He managed to obtain a strand of Mary’s hair from the hotel they both had stayed in. Then, he sent it to
a DNA test center.
After waiting for several days, the test center informed him that they could not run a DNA test because
the strand of hair he had submitted did not contain any hair follicles.
The best specimen to run the test with was blood samples. However, it was challenging for him to get
that from Mary.
He could not shake off the feeling that Mary and Penelope did not belong to the count’s family.
Another thing that had been bugging him was his inexplicable innate fondness toward Ashlyn.
Where does this special affection come from? I really want to find out so badly.
The man sighed as he switched on his laptop.
Lately, he was preparing to request Mysterious yet Majestic to help him check how did his older sister
go missing in the past.
However, every single one of his requests was rejected by the underground group.
Feeling troubled and frustrated, he tried logging in to the page where the clients of Mysterious yet
Majestic were supposed to submit their requests.
He had spent a lucrative sum to get access to the platform.
As usual, he performed a series of procedures to complete his entry.
At the end of the page where the amount of remuneration was expected, he selected the option which
said two million.
The first time he did that, he indicated five hundred thousand, but the request was denied. He entered
one million during his second attempt, and the result was still the same.
At his third try, he raised the amount to one and a half million, yet nothing changed.
Is the amount too little?
That time around, he chose two million without any hesitation.
Shortly after placing his request, he received an anonymous phone call.
“Hello.” The hoarse voice of a man sounded at the other end of the line. “You want us to investigate the
case where the daughter of the Yates family went missing? It’s going to be tough because the incident
happened too long ago.”
“I can raise the amount.” It took Ryan a while to realize who he was speaking to.
Someone from Mysterious yet Majestic has contacted me!
