The atmosphere instantly turned solemn as the air grew thick with sorrow.
“Can you tell me what exactly happened back then?” Quinton asked, lowering his voice. “Even though
the Everheart family abandoned me, I have the right to know the truth.”
“No, it’s not like that, Mr. Quinton. Please don’t misunderstand Mr. and Mrs. Everheart. They never
abandoned you. They loved you just as much as they loved Miss Ren. However, an ident did
happen that year.”
With a sad face and enduring heartache, Margaret told them the tragic events that happened 28 years
ago.
“At that time, everyone was happy that Mrs. Everheart was pregnant with twins. They picked the
greatest private hospital for your and Miss Ren’s arrival on the day of your birth. Finally, both of you
were born safely. But then a gang of thugs burst into the delivery room and kidnapped you and Miss
Ren. Madam had just given birth to you two and was weak, so she could only protect Miss Ren and
watch you being taken away by those people…”
“Damn it!”
Renee was furious. “Those people were far too brave. I recall that that time was the peak period for the
Everheart family. We were once The Great Eight of Beach City. Only the Hunt family came close to our
wealth. How were those people so bold?”
“Yes. We want to know too how could they be so brave!”
Margaret gritted her teeth, and her body shuddered with wrath. “At that time, Mrs Everheart was so
depressed and lost so much blood that she almost died. The Everheart family exerted all their might to
locate Mr. Quinton, but there was no news at all in the end.”
“After three months, Mrs. Everheart was diagnosed with depression because she missed Mr. Quinton
so much.” She tried to end her life numerous times but was unsessful. Mr Everheartpletely lost
interest in continuing the business. It was then that the Everheart family began its road to downfall.
Several families saw the opportunity and stole the Everheart family’s businesses!”
“Then I was abandoned in a small vige and never met my parents anymore?”
“No. At that time, the Hunts had a good rtionship with the Everhearts as they were the only family
who didn’t take advantage of them. Mr. Hunt utilized his contacts to locate you in an abandoned factory.
But…”
Margaret shook her head slowly. “But we werete. When you were transported to the hospital, you
had stopped breathing. The Everheart family buried you beside the mountain and river and cleaned up
all your traces, and left just a quilt as a memento that you existed. Soon after, it was as if you had never
existed.”
“Hahaha. Is that my destiny to never exist before?” Quinton questioned with a sad face.
He couldn’t understand why his life had been so difficult since birth.
It wasn’t always because he chose the bad path but because he was already in a dark path from the
beginning.
“Did they find out who kidnapped me?” His face was flushed as he choked and questioned Margaret.
“No.”
She shook her head again. “Because there was still Miss Ren to look after, Mr. and Mrs. Everheart
decided to stop thinking about it, and none of us ever mentioned you anymore.”
Renee sympathized with Quinton. She patted his shoulders andforted him, “Brother, believe me,
they might say they want to forget you, but they never once forgot you. I’ve always seen Mother holding
onto the quilt and crying. I didn’t know why then, but it appeared because they missed you.”
She had always assumed that the quilt with the unique print had been used to wrap her, but she
recently discovered that it was also used on Quinton.
“Of course, I’m aware that they never forgot about me. It’s just that they have no idea I’m still alive. I’ve
never med them, I only loathe the people who took me away.”
Quinton clenched his fist, his eyes filled with rage. “I’m guessing the person who took me away,
bankrupted the Everheart family and killed Mom and Dad is the same person.”
“Howe you’d say that? Do you have any clues?” Renee asked sharply.
