Wyatt was lost in thought, thinking about Yara''sst words.
"I''ve never really lived for myself at any point."
"I hope that our children, especially Be, have the freedom to choose their own path. Unlike me, she
deserves the right to find happiness on her own."
Wyatt thought to himself, ''Find her own happiness? But, Yara, has our daughter''s decision really
brought her happiness? What should I do? If you know something, wherever you are, could you send
me a sign in my dreams?''
At that moment, there was a knock from outside the study.
Before Wyatt could respond, Sasha barged in with her voice, loud and urgent. "Wyatt! M! That crazy
girl from the Iverson family is here and insists on seeing you and Celeste! I didn''t let her in, but she''s
causing a scene outside! Her body reeks of alcohol, so she''s probably pretty drunk."
"Wait, are you referring to Astrid, Lance''s daughter? What is she doing here?" Wyatt exhaled a breath
of frustration. "What kind of upbringing does the Iverson family give their children? A youngdy from
their household is showing up unannouncedte at night, as if our house is a public market. Where are
their manners?"
Sasha crossed her arms, clearly irritated. "I tried to ask her what she wanted, but she was so drunk
that all she did was ramble incoherently. She just kept saying it wasn''t her fault without exining what
she meant."
"Huh, so it''s not her fault? She actually has the audacity to im that?" M narrowed her beautiful
eyes as she abruptly stood up, her attitude turning cold. "She''s only interested in seeing Celeste
because she thinks Celeste is soft-hearted and can be easily manipted with some sob stories. Does
she really think she can just talk her way out of what she has done? As if it never happened?!"
Wyatt was surprised. "M, what exactly happened?"
"At the banquet the other day, Amelia was tricked by Charles and was almost raped. Astrid yed a big
part in that n."

M was furious, her eyes turning red. "At that time, Steven wanted to rush in to find Amelia, but Astrid
and her men held him back and even caused Steven to be severely injured. His shoulder was shed
with a knife, and his left eye was almost blinded!"
"Blind?!" Wyatt and Sasha were dumbfounded, in disbelief.
These past few days, they had seen Steven with his left eye bandaged, but they had never imagined
that he had been injured so grievously.
"Yet even so, Steven didn''t think about himself at that moment. He quickly joined Be and the rest to
save Amelia from grave danger. After Charles took Amelia away, Astrid intervened to stop Steven. She
must have been aware of what Charles was up to. It seemed like she was actively helping him!"
"Damn it! That dirty and evil woman! She deserves to eat shit!" Sasha fumed, clenching her fists tightly
and considering reaching out to Elias once more.
"Absolutely evil!"
Wyatt exploded with rage, his temples throbbing visibly. He grabbed an expensive antique teacup and
forcefully threw it against the wall. "Those Iverson siblings are really terrible—so full of spite! How dare
that girl shamelessly bully my godson?! I''ll teach her a lesson myself!"
Before he could even finish speaking, the twodies immediately held him back.
"Wyatt, why bother with her? You''re of noble status, and you don''t need to lower yourself by meeting
her. She''s not worth it."
M looked at Sasha with a dark and intense expression and said, "Sasha, get the butler to kick her
out. We can''t have that filthy animal bother Celeste and Amelia or ruin the peace at Yara Park."
In the courtyard, Astrid would not let go of the butler. She grappled with the butler, screeching like a
shrew, and demanded to see Wyatt and Celeste.
Initially, the butler stayed polite, but he eventually lost his temper and ended up pushing her too hard,
which made her stumble to the floor.
"Ah!"
