Chapter 90 After storming out of the birthday party , my father's gaze became lost and confused . He no longer knew what he was thinking.B The Shermans was in turmoil . A video of him plotting with his son to harm his daughter had been leaked and now , the villa was on fire , with his beloved Susan still trapped inside . As much as he wanted to believe what Sally and Connor had told him , he knew deep down that the butler might have been telling the truth . The villa was really burning and his daughter might truly be inside . Countless thoughts immediately flooded my father's mind . He recalled that I had looked like a red - skinned monkey when I was born , before my skin had gradually turned soft and fair within days . My mother was still alive those days and when my father held me , he felt the true meaning of a blood connection for the first time . So , he vowed to protect me for the rest of his life . From the moment I began to sweetly call him " Daddy , " my father and my brother had protected me . They had been through so much for it . " Later , the loss of my mother carved a deep wound in both their hearts . Still , for the sake of his daughter , my father endured the pain of losing his wife . Over the past twenty years , he and Aidan had cherished me like a precious jewel . But in the last two years , it was as if they'd been possessed , inflicting unimaginable harm upon their own treasure . " The more he thought about it , the more my father felt a profound sense of despair . It was true ; everything he had done was supposed to be to protect his daughter . " The Sherman Corporation existed only to provide me with a better life . Yet , for the sake of so - called gratitude for saving the company , he had turned against heaven itself , elevating Sally to the highest position . He even trampled me , his beloved aughter , under his foot just for Sally's sake . How could he bear to have others do those things to me ? How could he bear to snatch away fiancé ? Clearly , if Connor's affair had happened earlier , he should have helped his daughter find a new fiancé . Why had Sally and Connor's few words swayed him ? " Why had he been swept up by this so - called " favor , " committing such outrageous acts against me ? To the point , sharing those videos with so many people . Had he and Aidan lost their minds ? Remembering my lifeless eyes when they abandoned me at Sally's wedding the day before , my father's heart suddenly began to ache . Beside him , Aidan grabbed his sleeve with eyes reddened slightly . " Dad , did we truly make a mistake ? " " We should have gone to save Susan yesterday . Sally had already married Connor successfully ; we shouldn't have released those videos . We're the ones who harmed Susan . " My father's heart felt as if a thousand knives were stabbing it . He instinctively looked at his phone , but there were no new messages . That was it . Ever since he'd begun taking action against me , I hadn't . him a single message . Yesterday was supposed to be my surgery . Why had he been so foolishly obsessed as to attend Sally's wedding instead ? At that wedding , Sally wasn't even seriously hurt ; she'd merely stumbled . Why had he abandoned a collapsed , unconscious me to go and save a mistress's daughter ? " Recalling his helpless daughter in that moment , my father wanted to slap himself right then and there . He dared not imagine what might have happened if the bodyguards had rescued me just a moment later ; would he have lost his daughter yesterday ? The more he thought about it , the more his heart raced . The terror of losing his daughter snapped him back to his senses . His voice trembled as he said , " Your sister must be fine . She's smart . She's probably just angry about yesterday . Why would she sacrifice herself ? " " If we go back now , Susan might be waiting for us right at the villa entrance . Hurry up . Don't keep her waiting too long . " N My father hadn't considered that even if I were deceiving them to make them worry , why would I still be waiting at the villa entrance ? After all , the villa had truly been completely burned down ... Aidan still clung to a shred of rationality . He refused to believe his sister could have perished in the villa's flames.N The thought of her dying alone in some forgotten corner and that this tragedy was caused by her two closest family members , made his face turn pale . # Aidan forced himself to sound calm . " Dad , I believe my sister would never do such a thing . She's resilient . Even after everything that happened , she fought to survive . She wouldn't ... " N
