He nodded slightly, a complex expression flashing in his eyes as he considered his words carefully.

"Eve, I've uncovered ssecrets about Jack and your mother's marriage, as well as why he strayed onto a path

My heart tightened as if an invisible hand was gripping it tightly. Those warm yet blurry memories began to swirl

in my mind, each attempt to piece them together accompanied by a ripping pain.

Yet | understood that only by confronting this suffering could I truly find liberation.

"Tell me, | need to know the truth." | took a deep breath, striving to keep my voice steady.

Ethan sighed softly and began to speak, "Jack was once a young man with great ambitions. However, family

pressures and the treachery of business gradually led him astray.

"Then why didn't she leave him?" | choked out.

"Because she loved you and the family. She believed that if she held on long enough, one day she could change

Jack and bring him back to the right path." Ethan's voice was filled with sympathy and respect as if he held my

mother in high regard.

"But sadly, she never lived to see that day."
