1 don’t know how long Tiffany had been standing there watching, but I hoped she would come to her senses soon and stop making the same mistakes over and over

Before this, I had paid a heavy pricemy lifefor an answer. Wasting time on the wrong person only leads to heartbreak, not love that’s returned, but a shattered soul

When I looked back again, she was gone, vanishing into the crowd

In the next moment, I snapped back to reality and saw Zoey, of all people, sneaking up next to Whitney

Taylor was nearby, his eyes frequently drifting toward her

My heart was pounded in fear

Zoey had learned of Whitney’s current situation from me, but the Carlyns were dangerous people. Even though I knew Whitney was my sister, I couldn’t afford to be too obvious

She was using her new identity as an excuse

Icouldn’t approach them now, worried that Taylor might discover our connection

Nearby, Nina was arguing with Zoey, and Whitney looked lost

She had no idea who I was, even less likely on Zoey’s identity

As the argument between Nina and Zoey escalated, Harlan stepped in and pulled Zoey away

What are you doing?Harlan asked

Zoey quickly came up with an excuse. Your friend here is bullying Ms. White. I’m just standing up for 

her!” 

Harlan gave a nervous smile, apologizing to the Whites. Sorry, my wife has a bad temper.” 

The Whites and the Pearsons had a good relationship; they had once thought about arranging a marriage between their families, so no harm was done

James chuckled and said, It’s alright. Young people are full of energy. Maybe if Mrs. Pearson spends more time with Nina, they’ll become friends instead of enemies.” 

Sure, Mr. James, I’ll visit more often to hang out with my sister!Zoey said, her voice brimming with excitement 

Who’s your sister? That’s disgusting!Nina rolled her eyes

I gripped my fork tightly. Zoey was such an idiot. She knew I had no reason to approach Whitney, so she was using Nina to get closer to her

And I couldn’t drag her into this mess

If anything happened to her, how could I explain it to Mom

Fearing Zoey might expose my identity, I quickly left with Carter

Outside, the air was quiet, but I heard sobbing from a distanceTiffany crying, I like Carter! I always thought if I waited long enough, he’d notice me, but he married that substitute! Aunt, help me, please!” 

I glanced over. The woman standing next to Tillany in the gazebo had her back toward me. She was dressed in a black gown with large red roses on it

Her hair was pinned up and held up by a crystal hairpin. She had a graceful figure, and from behind, she looked like a young woman in her late twenties or early thirties

But since Zoey called her aunt, it was clear she was much older

The woman didn’t speak. She gently wiped Zoey’s tears before sighing. I’ve told you before, it’s never going to happen between you two.” 

Why not? What makes me any worse than that fake?

Zoey stopped talking when she saw me wheel Carter’s away. She grabbed the woman’s hand and quickly left

Carter and I returned to the car, and I couldn’t stop thinking about that woman

Carter, what’s your relationship with the Doltons?I asked, curiosity getting the best of me

He grabbed my hand and started to explain. Years ago, when I left Snowville and moved to another country to build a career, my leg wasn’t fully healed. I got caught up in a project that threatened the local mafia’s interests. They took advantage of me when I was delirious and threw me into the sea. It was Tiffany’s father who saved me

The Doltons are just an ordinary family in Jaford. Not rich, but well off enough. I’m grateful to her father for saving me, and from then on, we kept in touch. That’s how I got to know Tiffany. She’s been chasing me for years.” 

How did she know I was the one you liked?I asked, a playful smile forming on my lips

Carter’s ears turned pink. He said, I didn’t hide it. When I was abroad, I didn’t care. My phone’s. screensaver was your picture, and I kept a photo of you in my wallet. Even… 

I grinned mischievously and asked, You didn’t, did you? Leave traces of me everywhere?” 

Yep,” he admitted, and I couldn’t help but laugh

No wonder; it wasn’t surprising, anyone close to him would have figured it out

But the Boltons were too distant to know about this

Have you met this aunt of hers?I asked, still puzzled

I’ve met her. She’s nice. Every time I visited their family house, she’d cook my favorite dishes for me,he explained

Is she married?”

Carter shook his head and said, From what I know, she’s divorced and doesn’t have kids. She visits her family house a lot. Why are you asking about her?” 

da 

Oh, 1 just thought she had a sexy figure 

Carter evidently didn’t accept that, as he kept his gaze fixed on me. I laughed and said, Alright, it’s just that when I saw them sneaking away after seeing us, I found it a bit strange. You heard it too, right? Tiffany still targets me.” 

Chloe. I swear, I have nothing to do with her, Carter reassured me

I know. How could I not trust you, Carter? How about we visit this benefactor of yours sometime?” 

Carter gently tapped my nose. Sure, anything you want, as long as you never doubt my feelings for you

I rested my head against his chest, smiling

Marriage should be built on trust

But for some reason, when I thought of that woman who hadn’t even turned around, I felt something strange in my heart

Why had Tiffany asked for her help? Her tone didn’t sound like a young girl asking a relative for advice, it sounded more like a defeated villain looking for backup

But Carter had said that the Doltons had saved his life, and they were decent people

Could I be overthinking this

When we got home, Carter noticed I was upset. He asked, What’s on your mind?” 

I knew how important the Doltons were to him, so I didn’t want to mention my unfounded suspicions
