hapter 134 A Husband Of Equal Status
Feeling the weight of the past and the pain of abandonment, Cordelia contemplated her options. Twenty–five years they abandoned her, and she didn’t feel obligated to acknowledge them as her parents.
She wasn’t that generous.
A mere apology would not suffice to make up for the pain and abandonment she had endured for twenty–five years.
As Cordelia listened to Richard and Lydia’s explanation, her heart began to soften. They had thought she was dead and entrusted her b*dy to a priest for a proper burial. The revelation shattered the resentment that had held a grip on her for so long.
Cordelia realized that their actions had stemmed from a tragic misunderstanding, and they, too, had endured immense suffering in their own way.
The three of them came together in a family hug and burst into tears.
As Emrys, Caylie, and Yelena observed the unfolding reunion between Cordelia and her parents, a mixture of emotions surged within them.
They couldn’t help but feel genuine happiness for Cordelia upon witnessing her reconciliation with her long–lost family. However, their own past as orphans from the Sunshine Children’s Home cast a shadow over their hearts.
Emrys didn’t know how to express his feelings.
With an extensive network of the Seventy–two Shadow Forces under his command, with two–thirds of their influence spanning across international borders and only one–third focused within Chanaea, it should pose no difficulty for him to uncover the backgrounds of himself and the girls.
Nevertheless, prior to his departure from the monastery half a decade ago, the wise old friar had advised Emrys to allow destiny to unfold naturally when he sought information about his true identity.
He was telling Emrys not to delve into his own background as the answers would be revealed in due time.
Perhaps it wasn’t a coincidence that the girls and he were sent to Sunshine Children’s Home. Someone had orchestrated this arrangement deliberately, with the intention of fostering a deep bond between Emrys and the girls.
Emrys had formed this speculation based on recent events and the words of the old friar.
That thought terrified him.
Pondering over the intricate scheme unfolding before him, Emrys couldn’t shake off his curiosity about the involvement of the old friar in this grand design. How did the friar fit into the equation, and what connection did he have with Skybright, the name that Richard and Lydia had mentioned earlier?
“You are Emrys Lund, right?”
Richard Youngblood is quite assertive, huh?
