Sylvie wiped her tears away and quietly said, “I love dancing, and I got to know Stella in a dancing studio. We became friends afterward. I've been to Stella's house, and I've seen her mother. She told me that her mother hurt her head before, and had lost her memories. All she knew was that her mother was from Baykeep. One day, Stella called me. She told me to look for her family if I come to Baykeep one day and that her family would be my mine too.”
Sylvie could not help but begin crying at the mention of the past.
Once she recollected herself again, she lifted her reddened eyes and turned toward Zayne at the side.
“Zayne, I told you this before, didn't I?”
Herbert's fourth son, Cyrus Zeigler, immediately turned to Zayne. He knew that his youngest son would not lie, so he asked, “Is she telling the truth?”
Zayne never thought that everyone would suddenly be focusing on him, so he stiffened for a moment.
Frankly, he felt pity for Sylvie after seeing her miserable state at the hospital the other time.
However, what Genevieve had shown them today was making him think otherwise.
As he let his eyes drift toward Sylvie, who had reddened eyes and a pale face, he wondered if he could still trust her.
In the end, Zayne nodded with difficulty. “Yes.”
“What happened to Stella?” Herbert urged. Truthfully, he could somewhat guess what happened to Stella, but he dared not continue down that line of thought.
Sylvie's lips parted. “S-She died...”
That day, Herbert's mood went up and down like a rollercoaster. His birthday celebration should have been a happy one, but he found out that the girl he had been doting on was an imposter and that his actual daughter and granddaughter were long gone.
Devastated, Herbert found himself unable to take in the next breath. He scrunched up his face and collapsed on the chair.
“Dad!”
“Grandpa!”
The elderly man's state scared everyone as they hurriedly placed him on the floor and began administering emergency treatment for him.
At the same time, they pushed Sylvie, Genevieve, and Cooper out.
Genevieve watched as the family doctor rushed over and kneeled beside Herbert. Her grip on her wheelchair tightened, and remorse appeared in her eyes.
Hurting him had not been her intention.
