Sylvia's POV:
"But why didn't Leonard know about this?" Rufus asked curiously. "Edwin and Leonard are always together. I think it will be a tough task for Edwin to hide anything from him."
"You are right." I tilted my head and contemplated this for a while. "Leonard is such an upright man. His men must have the same values as him too."
But there was an exception to every rule. Who could guarantee that Edwin was an honest man?
I spun the narrative in my mind again. In my heart, I had already painted Edwin as a man who had abandoned his wife and daughter.
"I believe that Leonard doesn't know about this. Given his character, if he knew about this, he would certainly not hide or lie about it, let alone put on such a perfect act in front of us today," Rufus analyzed calmly.
I snorted. "That means Edwin dated my mother secretly behind Leonard's back."
"That is possible." Rufus nodded. His eyebrows then furrowed as he asked, "What are you going to do now? Are you going to talk to Edwin?"
I suddenly froze. I remembered that when I was a child, all the children in the pack ridiculed my mother as a bitch abandoned by a man. It felt like that difficult phase had taken place just
yesterday.
For an ordinary family, the birth of a child was considered a happy blessing. But for my mother, my birth only made her the target of endless taunts.
Despite that, she gave me twice the love, fulfilling the part that should have come from my father as well.
As my mind flashed back to Edwin's avoidance this afternoon, my heart clenched painfully.
