Chapter 945
“Ah, so it’s her York stumbled back a step as the truth hit him
He’d always found something off about Wendy, but her gentle, kind demeanor made it hard to believe she could be capable of such acts.
Turns out, she was the one who ruined Vanya’s face, the one who drugged his drink.
Damn, Wendy, you really know how to put on a show!
You’ve been playing this role for over thirty years, impressive!
York thought and clenched his fists, slamming them down on the table in fury. “Your mother ruined both mine and Vanya’s lives!”
Robin’s response was cold and biting “You can’t solely blame her for everything. After all, when you learned about Vanya’s disfigurement, you chose to abandon her as well, didn’t you, Dad?”
York’s angry gesture froze in mid–air, his son’s words piercing deep into his core.
“If it wasn’t for your mother’s encouragement, Evelyn wouldn’t have ruited Vanya’s face. And then Vanya wouldn’t have been cast aside by my father, leading to our engagement being broken off. Your mother is the one who caused all of this!
A smirk formed on Robin’s face as he witnessed his father’s outburst
“Dad ask yourself honestly, could you truly have married someone who was disfigured? Could you have spent your life looking at a face that was no longer the same?”
York recalled the first time he saw Vanya after her disfigurement, fear had gripped him.
But he was just a naive twenty–something back then.
What about now, would he still be scared? Could he accept it?
This question seemed to torment his soul, digging deep into his heart, leaving him momentarily speechless.
Sheldon Pine, clueless about everything, felt overwhelmed by the sudden influx of information and stood up from the sofa.
“I don’t believe it
He gripped his necklace, turning to leave.
“There’s one more thing you need to know.”
Sheldon Pine’s steps halted, but he didn’t have the courage to look back at Robin.
“Vanya is not a biological daughter of the Pine family”
So that’s why his parents always treated Vanya like dirt, either beating or insulting her at will. It all made sense now: Vanya wasn’t a real Pine.
Basking in the morning sunlight, he was struck with a realization. The details flooding his mind served as a reminder that Robin hadn’t lied to him.
Robin revealed the truth to them in hopes of seeking justice for Vanya, but also to instill a sense of guilt towards Vanya that they’d carry for the rest of their lives, living in perpetual remorse.
People should always pay some kind of price for the harm they’ve caused to others.
Even though the two individuals in front of him were his elders, Robin felt it necessary
He shoved his hands in his pockets and gave a nod to Katharine and Elbert, who were sitting in silence on the sofa.
Both stood up immediately and followed him into the study
“Dude, you haven’t told them Eleanor is Vanya’s daughter”
“That’s why I asked you guys to come in.”
Robin sat on the sofa, meeting their gaze with a serious expression.
“Regarding Eleanor being Vanya’s daughter, we can’t let anyone know. It’s better if they believe that both of Vanya’s daughters are deceased”
Elbert questioned, “Why? Both my father and your father have done terrible things to Eleanor’s mother. They should make amends to Eleanor

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
