After contemplating for a long time, she asked slowly, "Dad, you've met people from the Jenkins family, haven't you?" His face changed as soon as he heard her mention the Jenkins family, and astonishment appeared in his eyes. "How... How did you know..." "Dad, there's one thing I've never told you. When I was in Auview, I met people from the Jenkins family, and I found out about my actual identity. Dad, I didn't ask you because I didn't want you to think too much. I will never forget how you've taken care ofall these years," she said the last sentence with gratitude.

She knew what had happened with the Jenkins family back then, and she also knew that her parents were dead. However, she did not understand why she left the Jenkins family, or how her parents had died.

Her mind was in a whirl.

Sof the information, she had guessed from her previous conversations with the Jenkins family.

He listened to her talk and was in a trance for a long time. He knew that the Jenkins family would look for her, but now that the day had arrived, he felt a little lost. "Everleigh, which member of the Jenkins family have you met?" "Saniogo." "Oh, him. That's fine then. He had the best relationship with your father, Welment. He's the only one in the Jenkins family I'm not wary of." Abraham sighed, unable to suppress the emotions in his eyes.

"Dad, can you tellwhere you found me?" Filled with indescribable emotions, Everleigh looked into his eyes. He raised his head and looked at her face, as if he could see another person through her. The smile that appeared on his lips resembled that of a young lad who had just seen his first love.

"You looked just like your mother, Lillian. I fell in love with your mother the moment I laid eyes on her, but I knew about the disparities between our families. I could only watch her from a distance while she married her sweetheart, Welment." He spoke in a deep voice, reveling in the memories of the past.

She was a little surprised. She had thought of many possibilities, but she never expected that to be the answer. "Dad, then you and my mother..." "What happened back then was history, but my feelings for your mother never changed. After she got married, for the continuity of the Trevino bloodline, I married my wife. However, I've never betrayed her, because in my heart, there has always only been Lillian." Abraham's eyes glinted as he spoke, and Everleigh did not know what to make of this spark.

Was it remorse she felt? Or was it guilt? Either way, it was not something good.

"When Selena's mother died, I didn't have any intentions of looking for another one." "Dad, how did you know I'm a Jenkins?" His expression turned solemn, and his voice was a little muffled, as if he was trying to control his emotions. "What happened to your mother wasn't an accident, but my company was too small to investigate the case, so I went to look for you instead. Heaven rewards those who work hard, and I really found you." Everleigh was confused. "How were you so sure that it was me?" "Because at that time, the Jenkins family's pendant was on your neck. Your mother had personally made that for you, so naturally, I recognized it." Abraham gave her a faint smile. She could see that his feelings for Lillian were genuine.

Otherwise, he would not have wasted so much effort to find her.

"Then why didn't you handover?" She did not understand. He had already known her identity, but he kept her with him.

He shook his head. The smile on his face vanished, replaced by a grave expression.

"Because your parents' death was not an accident. I was afraid that someone would try to harm you if you were exposed to the public, so I kept your pendant and gave you the identity of the Trevino family's eldest daughter. I hoped to keep you away from the crossfire so that you could live a good life." As soon as he finished speaking, Abraham's eyes turned red.

Only he himself knew that when he found Everleigh, he was gratified. What he did was worthy of Lillian, and it was the last thing he could do for her.

He knew that she was no longer there, and he could not change that fact no matter how miserable he was. Hence, he might as well do something for her.

"Cwith me," Abraham said with a heavy expression.

Everleigh followed him into the study and watched as he opened the safe. There was a box inside. When he opened it, she saw the letter "J" on one side and the letter "Y" on the other.

"Y?" "Your nwas Yasmine Jenkins, and this was a pendant specially customized for you." Abraham touched the pendant and could not bear to let it go.

It was the only thing Lillian had left behind.

Everleigh could see what was on his mind. Looking at the pendant, she smiled faintly and said, "Dad, you can keep it." He raised his head in surprise, but there was also a hint of joy. "Everleigh, this is yours..." "Dad, once the Jenkins family acknowledges me, they won't care about this pendant. You can keep it. However, I don't mean to criticize, but smembers of the family may cause trouble for me." She was not certain, but she had a feeling that the upcoming banquet would not be a peaceful one.

He nodded, "You take this first. It would be the best proof if someone tries to cause trouble for you." "Dad, it's fine. I'll let you know when I need it. You've kept it safe for so many years, so it wouldn't be right forto take it. Dad, the both of us might need to attend the Jenkins family's banquet that's happening in three days." Abraham was silent for a moment before he turned his head to look at the invitation on his desk. He had received it when he was in the office.

Everleigh followed his gaze and saw the invitation card, which had an openwork design and had the Jenkins family's coat of arms painted in gold.

The letter "J" on the front was especially grand.

"It looks like you'll have to attend it."

"You'll also need to prove your identity. You must bring this pendant with you. Everleigh, since you already know about it, you must go back. Your father should be the one in power. You can't let those people run amok," Abraham said knowingly. She froze. It seemed as if there was a deeper meaning behind his words. "Dad, do you mean that there's someone in the Jenkins family who..." "I didn't say that. I just don't want them to take advantage of your parents' hard work," he immediately denied. She did not believe him. He obviously knew something.

"You should go to bed early," Abraham said. He turned around and carefully put the pendant back.

She could see that the pendant was very important to him. It was polished and shiny, and she could imagine that he had touched it countless times in the past few years. Giving it to him would mean leaving him with the memory of Lillian.

Everleigh walked out of his study and room slowly walked back to her room, She thought that ht that she would feel better after her father had explained things, but for sreason, her heart felt heavier. She could not understand why he would not investigate the cause of Lillian's death, but instead had brought her back to be a part of the Trevino family.

It was a pity that... she could not let it go on like that.

She had to find out the truth and demand justice for her parents.

e had to attend the party that was being held the day after.
