That girl huddled sobbing by her dad's coffin, her eyes puffy from crying all day and not sleeping at all. Next to her, Sebastian sat next to her wearing sunglasses to hide his sadness from everyone. It was almost 2 am, they remained faithfully beside their father's coffin.

The hall door opened, Catherine came with two coats in her hands which she would give to Suzzane and Sebastian. Although Suzzane never treated her well but she also couldn't bear to see her like that, she thought of Isabelle and maybe this is what Isabelle experienced when Emily died and she was alone.

"Miss Suzanne, put your coat on first. You'll get sick from the cold," Catherine tried to persuade Suzzane, but she didn't respond at all.

Since Suzzane didn't say anything, Catherine finally put the coat on and luckily Suzzane didn't reject it. Next was Sebastian, Catherine held out the coat to him without saying anything. Sebastian took the coat and put it on quickly, Catherine was just about to leave but suddenly

He loved Suzanne dearly, but it was hard for him to grant Suzzane's request. The can in his hand was suddenly snatched by someone and replaced with fruit juice, and a plate of warm pasta was placed in front of her."Drinking soda on an empty stomach isn't good," Catherine said as she threw the soda in the bin."Eating like this at this hour of the night isn't good either," Sebastian replied.Catherine sighed softly, "At least you won't go to bed on an empty stomach, eat this pasta. I know you didn't eat the food I made."Sebastian refused the food that Catherine offered him, but the look in his eyes couldn't lie that he was truly starving.

Sebastian really took good care of her, even giving her whatever she wanted without exception."Suzie, can I ask you something?" Sebastian asked carefully so as not to offend her. "What was the reason you fought with Catherine?""Because you care more about her than me," Suzzane replied with her face downcast as she held back her sadness.Sebastian stroked the top of Suzzane's head, "How could you think that?"Suzzane finally vented all her frustration and mentioned things that made her think that she was ignored by Sebastian, she even called herself an illegitimate child so Sebastian only loved her when Andreas was still alive.

Thank you for your help even though it wasn't very helpfull," Suzzane chided. Lily flicked Suzzane's forehead in annoyance, "Why are you flicking my forehead? He's already useless here so he better go back to his asshole brother." "At least say thank you, Suzzane Bellucci. If not because of him, your brother might not have gotten out of jail after fighting those businessmen and conglomerates." Suzzane chuckled, but instead of thanking him she went to Lily's room, leaving Isaac and Lily in the living room.

    "What brings you here?" Sebastian asked when he saw Amelia and Elliott in the flower garden behind the mansion.Elliott glanced at Sebastian with a smile and Amelia did the same, she was also holding a daisy in her hand which was none other than Amelia's favourite flower. Sebastian gave Amelia an annoyed look because Amelia had dared to pick flowers in this house without his permission, Sebastian took the flower and threw it in the trash."What are you trying to do here!" Sebastian asked rudely.Amelia stared at the daisy that Sebastian had thrown away, "Why did you throw it away, at least let me have one.""Why should you have something you don't like? Don't you hate that flower?"Amelia's brow furrowed, "Sebastian, have you forgotten that the daisy is my favourite flower? ever since you were a baby I've always put a daisy in your room,""It was Rosalie's favourite flower, she always put it in my room.

"You'd better take a shower hubby, you're so messy." she said while unbuttoning Sebastian's shirt. As Irish unbuttoned Sebastian's shirt one by one, Sebastian suddenly grabbed Irish's hand and looked at her with a look that Irish couldn't understand.

    "Isaac, you're my sister's son. But she died when she gave birth to you."Isaac lost his hope in an instant, it turned out that the person he was looking for could no longer be seen. The fact is in the past Mrs. Webster had wanted to take custody of Isaac, but Lauren who at that time was the biggest donor at her orphanage, wanted Isaac.

    Upon Sebastian's return from the nursing home, he was mostly silent and seemed confused after hearing the story about his mother from Esther. Everything Esther had told him contrasted with what Andreas had told him, and the problem was that now he didn't know who to believe. Rosalie and Andreas were dead and Sebastian couldn't ask them for an explanation of Esther's story, should he trust Amelia? Sebastian was really confused. "Not everything we see is the truth young sir, sometimes eyes can also deceive us." he said while patting Sebastian's shoulder. "Then do you think Mrs. Esther's story is the most true?" "I'm not saying that, I think just listen to your heart, which one do you want to believe the most. By the way, do you still want to sue Mrs. Amelia’s in court?” "Hold off on that until I'm absolutely sure," "Okay, young master."
