"Can you tell me more about her? How old is she, and how tall? Please be more detailed, I pressed further.

Sheila shook her head. Like I said, she's always very careful when we meet. I've never seen her face or heard her real voice, so I can't guess her age, but she's about your height."

"Who swapped places with Silas and Luke?" I asked again.

"I'm not sure. I was brought in later. Do you really think they'd share such important secrets with me?"

"How many people are in the group, and how do you usually communicate? Where do you meet?"

Sheila answered. The woman always reaches out to me. I mostly deal with things at the Boltons. They don't involve me in anything else, but I have a general idea that it's a large organization with many members, and they operate in the shadows. The meeting spots change each time, and she always contacts me beforehand."

Carter got straight to the point. "Tell me every place you've met and all the numbers she's used to contact you."

"How could I possibly remember all that?"

Carter turned to Damian. "Go through all the numbers she answered and check them one by one for me." "Understood, Mr. Carter."

"What else do you know?" I pressed further.

You can't say she didn't say anything, but her words held no real value. They were as empty as Silas'

answers.

All she gave away was the person's gender, which could easily be a lie.

Sheila might not be the sharpest, but after being around Anna for so long, she's far from naive.

"I'm just an outsider they brought in temporarily. I really don't know much. If I did, I wouldn't have been single for over ten years, only knowing how to cry, cause trouble, or threaten to take my life. If it weren't for Adam's obsession with me, they probably would have replaced me a long time ago."

She spoke with genuine emotion, her words carrying no deceit.

I gave a faint smile. "What about Linda Snider?

can't be sure of much else, but Linda is definitely connected to her.

"Linda and I are both pawns, hidden away for years. Our job back then was to confirm Silas' death, which is why Linda ended up exposed."

Adam clenched his jaw. "Confirm his death?"

"What do you know about Silas and Anna?"

Sheila paused for a moment, thinking carefully before he spoke. "Silas and Anna have been part of the organization since they were very young. They know fo more than I do. As for Silas, before his true identity came to light, he was an incredibly skilled fighter. All I can tell you is that they were very close, they trusted each other deeply. When Silas was captured by you, the organization feared he would betray them, so they had Linda poison him. My role was simply to watch for them."

This organization sounds brutal in your story. How have you managed to stay alive all this time without finishing your task? And as for Anna, since she's involved with the organization, what's her link to the Sanders?" At this moment, I decided to ask every question I had.

"I stepped into Anna's role halfway. I don't know much about the conflict between them and the Sanders and Boltons. As for why they haven't gone after me, it's likely because they rely on me to keep an eye on the Boltons."

I moved closer to Sheila, my gaze sharp and filled with cold intent.

"Everything you've said is accurate, but there's one thing..."

I placed my hands firmly on her shoulders. If they destroyed the Sanders, why was Esther the only one affected by a car accident, while Dad remains unharmed? If their goal was simply to infiltrate the Boltons, targeting Dad would have been the most effective approach. If he were to die, Carter was crippled and living abroad, leaving the Boltons easily under your and Adam's control."

Even someone like Silas, who'd been their pawn for so long, could be easily disposed of. So why had Jeffrey managed to survive all this time? Doesn't that seem odd?

"Perhaps, it all ties back to the hidden secrets of the Boltons."

She locked her gaze with mine. "Just like how Luke swapped places with Silas, the Boltons hold their own secrets. As for what that secre

is, you're asking the wrong person."

Her eyes then drifted towards Jeffrey. Just like Dad, do you want me to tell you what you did with Adam?"

I was caught off guard. Sheila was hinting at something, and I glanced at Jeffrey, almost in sync with Adam, who asked, "Dad, what have you done?"

The mystery of the Boltons, much like Oliver's past, remains unknown to me even now.

What could be the hidden truths within the Boltons?

All eyes were on Jeffrey. His aged yet commanding face betrayed no hints,

"Everything I do is for our family!" he declared.

That was all he had to say.

But Sheila wore a mocking smile. "Adam, at this point, I know I won't have a happy ending. I just feel sorry for you, the esteemed son of the Boltons, who has never earned your father's trust." Adam's eyes narrowed. "What are you implying?"

"Have you never wondered, after all these years of love between us, why, aside from the child who died

years ago, we never had any more children once I returned to the Boltons as a young woman?"

Her words hit me like a bombs, leaving me startled as well.

"Didn't you claim you were in poor health?"

Sheila smirked coldly. "Poor health? That was just a lie to protect your pride. I kept your medical records hidden. You're infertile."

Adam snapped, "That's impossible! If I'm unable to have children, then what about Silas and our child?" "Then maybe you should ask your beloved father what he did to you. He feared that if I had a child after moving into your family. I'd strengthen my position, so he took matters into his own hands." "How absurd. He put his trust in Luke to inherit the Boltons, cutting off all other options, even his own son. You should direct your anger at him, not me."

Don't elders like children? The more children, the more blessings. Even if Jeffrey doesn't like Sheila, it doesn't mean he should turn against the heirs of the Boltons,

But as I reflected on the past, I realized that when he first wanted Anna to terminate the pregnancy, he never would have let her keep the baby if he hadn't discovered Luke's illness.

Once I married Carter, he made subtle and not-so-subtle remarks about me getting pregnant and pushed for Luke to bring in Alisa.

In the end, it became clear that Jeffrey could only truly accept legitimate heirs. The illegitimate child left behind by the mistress meant nothing to him.

I approached Carter, who seemed to have lacked a father's affection growing up.

At that moment, all I felt was a strong desire to embrace him. His past must have been filled with hardship. Adam, however, gazed at Jeffrey with a look of disdain: "Dad, is what she said true?"

"Haha, this is the consequence of his actions. He never could have predicted that Silas would die, that Luke would fall ill, that the eldest son would be useless, and the youngest would be disabled! He got what he deserved!"
