Lonce believed that my death marked the extreme of human ethics, but over time, I came to understand that there was no real limit to humanity
Humans can be even more ruthless than demons, always stretching the limits of cruelty.
What I witness now may only be a small glimpse of the world's deeper darkness. Sheila's brutal and heartbreaking end is enough to turn anyone's stomach with just one look. Who could have imagined that her head remained the least damaged?
And as I stepped inside, I found it resting at my feet.
Her lifeless eyes, wide open in death, fixed on me, sending a chill down my spine and making the hairs on my neck rise.
"Ugh.
I crouched to the floor in the corridor, gagging. Every time I shut my eyes. Sheila's eyes appeared before
1. me.
I recalled the rare sense of peace on her face as we escaped the ward. What went through her mind then?
How could she meet her death with such composure, knowing it was coming?
Who started that organization? What did they do to these people? Why were they willing to die rather than give up any information?
"Zoey, are you alright?" Carter's voice broke through my thoughts, and I turned to face him, belatedly.
"I'm fine."
"How can you be fine?" His gaze was filled with sympathy.
Without needing to look, I knew my face was probably ashen, drenched in cold sweat.
"Let's leave here first."
I nodded, stealing a quick glance at the distraught Adam.
Once in the car, I fell into silence.
The scene we had just witnessed might have been too horrific, leaving a lingering terror in my soul.
Or perhaps it was the thought of what had happened before Sheila's death.
Carter wrapped me in his arms, pressing close, trying to warm both my body and my heart.
"Chloe, don't worry, you'll be alright," he whispered, kissing the top of my head.
Muffled by his embrace, I spoke softly. "Who could be so heartless, so full of hate, to kill so many lives?" 1/4

"Human nature is like this. There are things that defy logic, and we can't always apply reason or common sense."
I asked, "Carter, can you tell me the truth about your brother, Oliver?"
All the evidence led back to him, but how could a deadman have Luke as his son?
If he was still alive, why didn't he come back to the Boltons sooner!
Had he been lurking in the shadows all this time, waiting for revenge? Sheila's words also suggested a link between them.
This is the source of the turmoil within the Boltons.
I couldn't hold back anymore. I had to know the truth about this situation.
Carter let out a soft sigh, his expression calm. He had always been willing to grant my wishes.
He said, I only learned about this recently. Adam isn't the only son."
"Is that so?" I asked, my curiosity piqued.
They actually had triplets."
My eyes grew large with shock. "Not just twins? Three children! Even for a rich family, this should have been a reason to celebrate. Any family would treasure such a blessing. So, how did it end up as this tragic story?"
"Dad was overjoyed at that time. He even traveled to Mount Spiritus to get a protective charm for his wife. There, he met a master who claimed that one of the children was destined to bring harm to the Boltons. possibly even causing their downfall."
I frowned, instinctively refusing to accept it. "But the children were still in the womb back then! How can anyone predict the future with just a few words?"
Carter sighed as he watched my reaction. "Chloe, do you believe in fate?"
I fell silent, unsure of how to respond.
In my past life, I would have quickly told him that I didn't believe in such things.
However, the pure, kind-hearted version of myself ultimately met a tragic end.
Now, reborn with the Soul-Stabilizing Pendant, it feels as if I've already come to terms with the idea of fate deep within me.
"Then, how did Jeffrey respond?" I asked.
"At first, he didn't believe a word of it. He even scolded the master harshly, calling the predictions foolish. But later, the Boltons fell into a trap, nearly went bankrupt, and a series of disasters struck the family. With his mother's condition worsening. Jeffrey realized the master's words were true. He went back up the mountain to seek his guidance."
"What did the master tell him?" I asked curiously.

"He advised that the pregnancy be terminated to avoid future misfortune."

"By that time, the children were already five months along, and the movements could be felt clearly. Even if Jeffrey had agreed, his wife's maternal instincts wouldn't allow her to harm the innocent children. On the day of the birth, strange omens appeared in the sky, but she managed to deliver two boys and a girl."
With curiosity, I asked again, "So, which one did Jeffrey end up choosing?"
"Adam, the eldest son, was the weakest and smallest of the three. The twins took all the nutrients from their mother's body, causing Mrs. Bolton to die right after giving birth to the last child. Dad couldn't determine which of the two was the one destined to bring harm to the Boltons, so he left the matter to the bodyguards, secretly choosing to spare only Adam, who was barely alive."
I said slowly, "I see. So the person outside might not be your second brother, but your sister instead."
Carter's gaze darkened, "Perhaps both of them survived"
"So they returned to Boltons for revenge. What about your mother...
I gave him a careful look, uncertain if he'd be able to respond.
"Adam is weak. When he was a child, Dad showed him a lot of kindness. But he wasn'
it exceptional. -incapable of shouldering the responsibility of taking over the Boltons. Dad's heart belonged solely to his
first wife. Even after her passing, he never considered remarriage. I only came into the picture because of my mom's manipulation. I don't remember much about her. I stayed with her until I was two, then was taken back to the Boltons. Those two years are a blur to me." I asked, "Where is your mom now?"
Carter lowered his head slightly, shaking it. "I'm not sure. Dad said she passed away, and I tried to search for her, but all I came across were reports about her death.
"Is it because Adam couldn't handle things that Jeffrey put his hopes on Luke?"
Carter responded, "Yes"
Perhaps back then, Jeffrey was so strong-willed, and with his wife's death, many eyes were on the position of Mrs. Bolton.
One of those people is Carter's mother. Perhaps she used underhanded methods to get pregnant, so Jeffrey rejected her but only brought the child back instead.
It's no wonder he despised mistresses, loathed illegitimate children, and treated Carter with such coldness
Carter turned out to be the result of a scheme, a constant reminder of that manipulative woman.
If not for the later events at the Boltons, and if Luke hadn't let him down, Jeffrey would never have considered handing over the family to Carter.
What an irony. In the end, it was the very illegitimate child he despised most who took over the family.
Maybe this is fate, unpredictable and full of twists no one can foresee.

"No, as long as I'm here, the Boltons will never fall!" Carter remarked.
