He was determined to prevent this outcome, choosing instead to shoulder the burden alone.
Hannah was shocked, yet she remained unconvinced.
Despite Wallace's selfish nature, he had no reason to lie about her being his only biological child.
If Wallace truly had a son, why would he not acknowledge Bryson?
Logically, it made little sense; the story was riddled with inconsistencies.
“I think...”
Just as Hannah began to speak, Franco interjected, “Bryson, you must be mistaken.
Franco shook his head, smiling slightly.
“Why do you believe the head of the Compton family is your father?”
He paused, then seemed to realize something.
“You found clues abroad that suggested a connection between Hannah's father and your own, didn’t you? You
are completely mistaken.
Your father belonged to the Moreno clan in Caditown, which was decimated.
Hannah, having spent tabroad, was vaguely familiar with the Moreno family but was stunned to learn Bryson
might be a Moreno.
“To safeguard the Moreno family, your father had to send you and your mother away.

At that time, the Mitchell family wasn’t prominent in Valmere, but | knew your father’s grandfather well.
Back then, the Mitchells’ ventures were still reliant on the Moreno family.
Your grandfather trustedand sent your pregnant mother and you here,”
Franco explained.
Franco's expression grew distant as he lost himself in a flood of memories, recalling events long past.
“I didn’t dare keep you close at that time.
Acting rashly would have only drawn more suspicion.
” Franco's voice grew somber.
“The Moreno family was collapsing.
Your mother and you were targeted by foreign forces.
I had no choice but to send you both to another country and weave a web of lies so tangled | could barely
sustain it myself.
| planned to bring you back as you were nearing adulthood.

Franco looked at Bryson earnestly.
“Your mother returned to Cadilind to protect you.
She knew that as long as she lived, her enemies would never cease their pursuit.
Staying with her would only endanger you further.
Bryson’s voice was barely a whisper.
“My mother.
How did she die?”
Franco sighed heavily, his guilt evident.
“It’s all my fault.
He continued, recounting the events of that fateful year.
Hannah moved to sit beside Bryson, Listening in silence.
She learned that after the downfall of the Moreno family, Wallace had made several trips to Cadilind to visit both
her mother and his friend’s wife, who was also Bryson’s mother.
To Hannah's surprise, at that time, Amelie had been tracking Wallace, intent on killing Hannah's mother.
However, she tragically killed the wrong person on her first attempt.
The person Wallace had met was actually Bryson’s mother, whom Amelie mistakenly believed to be his lover,
prompting her to arrange an assassination.
Tears streamed down Franco's face.
“If I hadn’t allowed your mother to meet the master of the Compton family, perhaps we could have avoided this
tragic outcome.
Hannah felt a bitter sensation in her throat.

Even though all the mysteries were resolved, she found no joy in the revelations.
For years, the truth she had been searching for turned out to be a heartrending narrative.
Franco, looking at Hannah, added, “Your mother’s death must also be linked to this Amelie.
“The Mitchell family had no ties with the Moore family back then.
We only knew your mother was unhappy with the Moores.
The master of the Compton family never disclosed that your mother had married into the Moore family.
He confessed he didn’t dare disturb his lover, choosing instead to watch over her and her daughter from a
distance, unwilling to disrupt their peace.
Hannah responded indifferently, lowering her eyes, “Regardless, | will never forgive him.
Bryson, resolute, spoke to Franco.
“Grandpa, once you're better, | plan to go abroad.
Franco, understanding his intent, nodded.
“Do what you must.
| should have shared this secret with you sooner.
But Bryson remained silent.
Hannah appeared calmer by comparison.
“Mr.
Franco Mitchell, | suspect the entertainment news will be ablaze tomorrow with Tyshawn’s tic arrest.
As a member of the Mitchell family, it falls on you to handle the situation.
