After hanging up, Sadie looked out the car window. The moon was illuminating the night.

Sadie suddenly felt a spark of hope and told herself that no matter what the future held, she would face it bravely.

Sadie returned home late at night.

Brenda had been waiting in the living room for Sadie. When she heard the car sound, she hurried out to greet her. "Say-Say, you are back. I've cooked lasagna for you." "Brenda, why aren't you asleep yet?" Sadie got out of the car with something in her hand.

Brenda quickly put on Sadie's coat for her. "I was worried about you. When you didn't come back, I couldn't rest easy."

"Brenda, what is there for you to worry about?" Sadie smiled as she fixed Brenda's collar.

"You went to the White family. How can I not worry?" Brenda frowned, looking serious. "That Kathleen, she can be malicious. I'm afraid she might harm you."

"No, there are bodyguards. Besides..." Sadie sighed. "A lot has happened recently, and you don't know about it."

"What happened?" Brenda asked inquisitively.

"Go to your room and sit down. I'll tell you slowly."

Sadie was prepared to have a good talk with Brenda.

"Alright, I'll bring up the lasagna and dessert." Brenda brought the food and led Sadie to her room. "You eat first, and we'll talk after you finish."

"I don't have an appetite..." Sadie handed Brenda the property certificate. "Brenda, keep this for me."

"What is this?" Brenda saw the property certificate and widened her eyes in astonishment. She said, "The property certificate for the old mansion? Who gave it to you?" "Kathleen and Felipe..."

Sadie told Brenda everything that had happened during this period.

Brenda listened in astonishment, her eyes wide open and her mouth agape, occasionally exclaiming, "Goodness, Arianna is too malicious!

"Oh my God, thank God!

"Oh no, Billy is so pitiful...

Finally, after hearing the full account of events, Brenda sighed, her emotions mixed. "Though it may be retribution for Kathleen and Felipe, I can't help but feel a twinge of sympathy when I think of their family's fate. Honestly, this punishment seems overly severe."

"Yes, I'm feeling quite complicated too." Sadie sighed deeply.

"So, it's true that people shouldn't do bad things." Brenda shook her head and sighed. "But then again, how can Mason, who is so kind and innocent, have such a wicked cousin? She is just too malicious."

"Mason is Mason, Arianna is Arianna. They are not the same kind of people at all." Sadie was quite clear about the distinction. "Brenda, keep the property certificate with you for now. If I meet any setbacks in the future, at least I'll have some protection."

"Understood." Brenda took it and kept it. "Miss, you've had the lasagna. Go upstairs now. Micah is waiting for you."

"There is something I want to ask you," Sadie said, holding Brenda's hand. "Do you know anything about my mother?"

"Why are you suddenly bringing this up?" Brenda's face looked uneasy when the topic was mentioned.

"I received some news today that the person who plotted to kill my father may be the enemy of my mother." Sadie furrowed her brow. "So I want to know about my mother's story..."

"That's all in the past. Let's not bring it up again," Brenda advised earnestly. "Now you have Micah, and he treats you and the children so well. And you are about to get married soon. It's time to live a peaceful life and not dwell on the past. Look forward."

"Alright..." Sadie saw that Brenda didn't want to talk about it, so she stopped asking. "I'll go upstairs then. Can you take back the lasagna? I am not that hungry.."

"Okay, get some rest," Brenda saw her off.

Sadie went upstairs, back to her room, and was embraced by a pair of strong arms. She smiled, "Micah, you've spent too much time with the children, and now you're becoming a child yourself."
