All the Chapmans were used to complying with Sisley’s directives without question.
Sisley said, “Alice’s pregnancy was an accident, and it had nothing to do with us. It’s entirely her fault
since she led a messy life! Besides, it was Mr. Chapman who kicked her out of the family. It has nothing
to do with us. If you start poking around into the past or accusing us of hiding any secrets, you’ll have
to deal with me!”
Hera nudged Sisley’s arm and asked softly, “Mom, what exactly happened?”
“Nothing happened.” Sisley looked tensed. Everything that happened in the past is better left buried! If
Ashlyn finds out about it, given her status and abilities, she’ll definitely seek revenge against us!
Sisley, who was still in shock, let out a long breath as she tried to compose herself. “You’re just a child.
There are things you shouldn’t know.”
She believed Ashlyn, too, had no idea what happened. We’ll be safe as long as she’s not aware of the
past.
Meanwhile, in the hotel, Ryan would retrieve the red jade he had acquired from the Chapman family’s
auction and look at it once in a while.
Looking at the red jade made him feel as if he was looking at his sister during his childhood days. I
must figure out the relationship between Mary and her daughter!
He was also eager to learn more about Ashlyn, as he was not entirely buying Bob’s story. Was Alice
really a daughter of the Chapman family?
Based on his investigations, he discovered that Alice was intelligent, talented, and a popular figure in
the Chapman family.
As the number one socialite in Lake City, Alice was always the center of attention.
Ryan felt there was something Alice and his sister had in common. The direct descendants of the Yates
family were known for their exceptional talents in various fields.
His sister had already achieved a high level of proficiency in piano at a very young age, reaching the
tenth grade and winning major awards.
Ashlyn’s accomplishments in piano were equally impressive as well.
Ryan sat on the couch and went deep in thought. He could not help but feel Ashlyn was more akin to a
member of the Yates family.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
“Come in,” Ryan said while putting the red jade away.
Mary pushed open the door and entered with Penelope.
“Ryan, have you taken lunch? Penelope and I just came back from the restaurant, and we bought you
stir-fried beef with couscous and fruit juice. Would you like to have some now?” Mary tried to act
natural before him while expressing her concern.
“Thank you.” Ryan nodded politely and took the stir-fried beef with couscous. He was indeed famished
since he did not eat anything at the auction.
“Enjoy your meal. Penelope and I will head back to our room to rest,” Mary said and left with Penelope.
Ryan, who was engrossed in his meal, did not notice the vicious glances in their eyes.
After finishing the stir-fried beef with couscous, he felt drowsy and dozed off on the couch.
A few minutes later, Mary and Penelope got into his room and glared at him. “The drug Mr. Haddock
gave us worked really well. Look, he’s now lying unconscious on the couch.”
“Mom, are you sure the item is with him?” Penelope asked cautiously.
“Yes. His personal seal is the jade pendant he wears around his neck, and his name is engraved on the
bottom of it,” Mary said. “As soon as we stamp his personal seal on the document and top it up with
another official chop, we’re done!”
Even if the Yates family decided to kick them out of the family, they would still have some money. All we
need to do now is stamp his personal seal on the document and top it up with the official chop.
Mary searched through Ryan’s belongings and eventually discovered the official chop, which bore the
emblem of the Yates family.
“Mom, I’m a little nervous.” Penelope held the chop but dared not stamp it on the document.
Mary snatched it from her.
“What’s there to be afraid of? We just need to stamp it on the document. Don’t you want to live a
luxurious life? Once the document is stamped, we’ll have more money than we can ever spend. Do we
still need to depend on them for money? No, we can live a comfortable life on our own after this,” Mary
said.
Her excitement grew as she forcefully slammed the official chop onto the document.
