Chapter 1128: Chapter 1125: It Was Sebastian Yansford Who Saved Her Three Years Ago

Eva Nightingale hadn’t finished speaking when Eliana Beckett playfully interrupted, "Sweetheart, how many times have I said, just call me mom, why do you insist on adding ’Eliana’ before it?"

Eva put down her lemonade and glanced at Eliana Beckett; the woman’s fair skin and stunning face seemed untouched by time.

Eva: "Because you’re beautiful."

"Just saying ’mom’ makes it sound old."

"You child!" Eliana Beckett didn’t know whether to feel happy or sad. She only gave birth to her, not the childhood she deserved. Putting it nicely, Eva says she’s young and pretty; putting it harshly, Eva feels distant and not close to her.

True indeed!

Over the years, Sebastian Yansford, her nominal uncle, has been responsible for taking care of her until she turned 18.

Eighteen years old.

Life doesn’t have many eighteens.

Eliana Beckett seemed to recall something, suddenly asking, "Eva, what do you think about your uncle?"

"He’s great, mom. Uncle treats me very well, the kind who can fulfill any demands."

Actually, Eva gradually understood Sebastian Yansford’s feelings for her, a genuine sense of protection, silently watching over her, without being a rogue.

Putting it nicely, he respects her.

Putting it not-so-nicely, he’s dull.

"Good, he’s your uncle, so of course, he should be good." Eliana Beckett seemed worried, fearing something might happen between Eva and Sebastian Yansford, so she quickly urged, "Eva! Your uncle is not young anymore. You should push him to stop wandering all over the world, come back quickly, and it’s time he finds a Young Master’s Wife."

Eva nodded.

She didn’t reply immediately, then looked at Eliana Beckett and asked, "Mom, why is your last name Beckett and his last name Yansford?!"

"He’s not my real uncle?"

Eliana Beckett’s lips twitched slightly, answering flawlessly, "Back then, when there was unrest within the family, your uncle was sent to the Yansford Family within months; he was raised by them, so he took their surname."

Eliana Beckett even emphasized, "He’s your real uncle, the blood relation is there, and the surname is no longer important. It’s just a surname; you don’t need to worry too much about it!"

Speaking of Sebastian Yansford.

Eliana Beckett suddenly recalled...

A night three years ago.

Just a few days after Eva gave birth to little Ivy and after Graham Knight and little Lily nearly drowned.

Sebastian Yansford, with his men, spirited her away to Eastern Europe overnight, not directly telling Eliana Beckett about Eva’s childbirth but instead lied about Eva’s solo near-drowning combined with other mysterious symptoms.

Back then, Sebastian Yansford didn’t directly hand Eva over to Eliana Beckett but placed her in his private residence, inviting the best doctors to help recuperate her body. At that time, Eliana Beckett didn’t think much about it, seeing her grown up and resolutely decided to have psychiatric experts erase her previous memories.

Sebastian Yansford didn’t stop this, perhaps his selfishness at play and, even without Eliana Beckett doing it, he would have done it himself. She belonged here and should have returned here; without Sebastian Yansford’s intervention, the family wouldn’t allow someone so important to remain outside forever, seizing the right moment would inevitably bring her back forcefully.

Three years, she lived happily in Eastern Europe.

Who knew, amidst the calm, seemingly peaceful life, everything seemed to undergo reversal, as if in the invisible hands of fate, many things were changing slowly and uncontrollably.
