Zoey now finally understood why Lawrence had married Yara, and why the latter cared more for her than Gemma.
She thought Yara was merely trying to curry favor with her at first, but everything made sense now. She also understood why Gemma, who was already over 50 years of age, had only one daughter.

Having sorted out her thoughts, Zoey called Yara back in. Her face returned to its usual pretense of warmth. "Mom, I've thought it through. From now on, I will be a good daughter and take care of you."
Hearing this, Yara hugged her tightly. "Those words are all I need."
"But," Zoey continued, "this must remain between us. We must not tell anyone else, okay?"
Yara was puzzled. "Why?"
"Gemma has no other children. I'm her only daughter. She said that after she dies, she will leave the entire business to me. If she finds out the truth now, she definitely wouldn't want to leave the company to me." Zoey's reasoning sounded convincing.
Yara also found it logical. After all, when Zoey had been born and handed over to Lawrence, he had told Gemma that he had found the baby and that her biological parents were unknown. That was the only reason Gemma had agreed to keep her.
"Okay." Yara agreed.
