**When The Ocean Learned My Name and Whispered It Back to You by Aurelia Novel 411**

**Chapter 411**

Sydney stood motionless, her heart racing as the weight of the revelation settled upon her.

The individuals they were discussing had been locked away for two decades. Tristan had left for another country two decades ago as well. He had been adopted during that time and only recently stepped into the role of head of DK Pharmaceuticals.

Her mind began to race as she pieced together the fragments of information, each connection illuminating the shadows of her understanding. “So, what you’re suggesting is that the true mastermind behind DK Pharmaceuticals could be someone entirely different?”

James nodded, a satisfied smile creeping across his face. “Exactly. You’re sharp, Sydney.”

His surprise at her ability to grasp the intricacies of the situation so quickly only served to deepen his admiration for her perceptiveness.

“Oh, and by the way,” he continued casually, “my mother is heading back to Brimcrest City for a little while. You can pause her treatment for now.”

Sydney’s brow furrowed slightly as she processed his words. “How long will she be away? We’ve just started seeing some positive results. It might be best not to disrupt the treatment for too long.”

James maintained his composed demeanor, responding smoothly, “She’ll be gone for about a week. She’ll return after my grandfather’s birthday celebration.”

“That’s reasonable,” Sydney replied, her mind already racing ahead. A week wouldn’t set them back too far.

As she contemplated the upcoming week, Sydney realized she had her own plans to return to Brimcrest. The anniversary of her parents’ passing was approaching, and she felt a deep yearning to be with them, even if only in spirit.

That evening, Tiffany burst into the room, a look of shock on her face. “Oh no! I almost forgot! Do you want me to come with you once I wrap up this case?”

Tiffany’s firm had just assigned her a significant case, and there was no way she could abandon it now.

Sydney offered a gentle smile, trying to mask her own bittersweet feelings. “It’s okay. I’ll go by myself.”
