Daisy Grant’s body trembled violently, looking at Dawn Sutherland in disbelief, "Second Brother, you and Evalian Chapman..."

"On the night of the opening party, I was sabotaged and drank a problematic beverage. I was initially going to ask Aidan to find a woman for me, but it unexpectedly led to a situation with Evalian Chapman..." Dawn Sutherland’s eyes carried deep regret.

His words made Daisy Grant’s body tremble even more intensely, her voice carrying a slight tremor, "You agreed to marry Evalian Chapman only because you thought you slept with her?"

Dawn Sutherland didn’t catch the abnormality in Daisy Grant’s words and nodded, "Yes. Daisy, I’m really sorry towards you; I made you bear the blame, let others think you’re the intruder between me and Evalian, and I’m also sorry for having a relationship with someone else that night."

"I..." Daisy Grant’s heart was bitter and unspeakable.

She always thought it was she who made her Second Brother marry her, felt guilty towards Evalian Chapman, and thus she endured Evalian’s taunts.

But it turned out, she never owed Evalian Chapman anything!

Second Brother didn’t sleep with Evalian Chapman! It was her...

Daisy Grant recalled that night when she was about to leave after everything. She saw Evalian Chapman’s message on Dawn Sutherland’s phone. To cover up the fact that she had gotten with her Second Brother, she responded to Evalian Chapman on Second Brother’s phone, asking her to come to the hotel room.

It turned out everything was caused by her mistaken actions; she made her Second Brother mistakenly believe Evalian was the one who had relations with him.

Daisy Grant felt a bit self-mocking. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Everything was her own doing; she invited Evalian Chapman to Second Brother’s room, resulting in this series of misunderstandings, yet she endured Evalian Chapman’s scolding. This can be considered the retribution of karma!

Daisy Grant lowered her gaze, her voice trembling slightly, "Second Brother, did Evalian Chapman ever say anything about that night?"

She just wanted to know if Evalian Chapman, being the first to arrive at Second Brother’s room, saw her dropped shell or mentioned something to Second Brother.

Dawn Sutherland let out a bitter smile, "What else is there to say? Everything is my fault. Daisy, I don’t want this matter to hurt you, so I’ve chosen to honestly tell you everything. As for Evalian Chapman, I feel guilty; after all, it’s my mess."

"Second Brother," Daisy Grant looked at Dawn Sutherland, her eyes deep, "You don’t owe Evalian Chapman anything, you don’t need to feel guilty. You were plotted against, it wasn’t your intention to take advantage of Evalian Chapman. Second Brother, believe me, you don’t owe Evalian Chapman anything."

Dawn Sutherland knew Daisy Grant was trying to comfort him, responding with a heavy "Hmm," his voice still low, unable to release.

Time slowly passed by, with Ariel Morris still not awake from her slumber, Arlo Seys remained by her side in the hospital without leaving an inch. All matters of Era were handled by Callan Walkers, who came daily after work clutching a stack of files and notebooks to handle affairs for Arlo Seys.

Meanwhile, Daisy Grant’s belly grew larger day by day, and Mother Grant’s body grew increasingly weak, eventually not holding on by early February and following Father Grant in departure.

Daisy Grant, with her belly protruding out, handled Mother Grant’s funeral arrangements with Dawn Sutherland’s company, laying Mother Grant to rest in Calming Cemetery permanently alongside Father Grant.

Daisy Grant devoted all her time to Grant Clan’s work, aiming to seize full control of Grant Clan’s operations before her delivery.

Dawn Sutherland felt heartache but couldn’t persuade her otherwise, watching Daisy Grant immerse herself in work, his heart aching with concern.

It was then that everything began to rush towards Daisy Grant.

With Arlo Seys’s assistance, Dawn Sutherland discovered the truth behind the identical quotation issue between Waltham Group and Grant Clan.

It was all a setup by Aidan Sutherland...
