Chapter 218

Shawn's thoughts drifted back to his wife's migraines, which seemed to have magically disappeared. He had

noticed that she never complained about them anymore.

Curiosity about where his daughter acquired her remedies did cross his mind, but he respected her privacy.

Shawn believed everyone had their secrets and saw no reason to pry. The family. had missed seventeen years of

her life, and now that they were finally reunited, simply being together was enough. There was no need for

suspicion or doubt.

Shaking off his reverie, Shawn patted his belly reassuringly and asked with a hint of levity. “You think your sister

would do you wrong?”

Leo, caught off guard, instinctively shook his head.

“See? No need for all these wild thoughts. She’ll share when she’s ready.” Shawn had a knack for seeing the

bigger picture.

His mind then wandered to Emmitt, prompting him to add with emphasis, “The last thing we need in this family

is distrust. It can hurt more than any outsider ever could. Leo, | don’t want you holding any prejudices against

your sister.”

Leo was taken aback to hear his father speak with such seriousness. Although it was surprising, he listened

intently and responded with conviction, “She’s got a sweet temper, and she’s well-behaved. Why would | have

any prejudices? And even if she did have her quirks, she’s still my sister.”

“That's my boy!” Shawn said approvingly. Pausing, he corrected, “And for the record, your sister doesn’t have

any quirks. She’s a lot more dutiful than any of you boys.”

Leo choked back a retort. “I was just making a comparison.”

Shawn gave him a sharp look. “Even so, no comparisons.”

“By the way.” Shawn continued, “why are you so free these days? Hasn't the company got work. for you?” There

was a detectable note of disdain in his voice.

Leo, now accustomed to his father’s insinuations to get out of the house, replied with thick-skinned ease, “Yeah,

they gavean extended leave.”

Shawn squinted suspiciously. “You've been acting odd lately. Is something up?”

“Nothing, just felt like taking a break,” Leo said, keeping his composure.

Satisfied with the answer, Shawn dropped the subject. But his thoughts returned to the

medicine his daughter had provided Leo, which was said to be priceless and rare. What about his own?

Rubbing his chin, Shawn stood and retreated to his room, pondering.

Chapter 218

The next day.

Mirabella had just arrived at school when an unusual Friday announcement called for an all-school assembly.

Typically, assemblies were a Monday affair. The sudden change had the students whispering in confusion.

Soon, the entire school gathered on the field, with Mr. Hammond taking the stage instead of his usual deputy,

which was a rare occurrence.

Mirabella and Jenna stood at the back of their class.

“I've got a hunch today’s meeting Has something to do with that forum post from yesterday.” Jenna murmured to

Mirabella.

Mirabella glanced at the stage, thoughtful. “Could be.”

“Were you on the forum last night?” Jenna prodded.

“No,” Mirabella replied, lazily tracing patterns on the ground with her shoe.

“You went to see Summer from the Prodigy Class yesterday, right? Then someone posted your conversation in

the forum's chat section. Now, there's a lot of speculation about your relationship with her.”

Jenna's love for gossip shone through as she continued, “Summer used to be a Davids, but after the whole baby

mix-up saga, she took her birth parents’ last name. Queen Mira, don’t tellyou're the one she was swapped

with?”

The theory was a bit melotic, but it wasn’t entirely out of the realm of possibility.
