    Chapter 361


    Craig’s expression darkened as he continued, “Our father insisted on putting Charles under our


    mother’s name, but she vehemently refused. She couldn’t ept that not only did he have an affair, but


    he had also brazenly brought the mistress’ son back. Moreover, he demanded Charles be recognized


    in the family registry. In a fit of anger, she left home alone while she was eight months pregnant. You


    were born while she was away. During her pregnancy, she experienced anxiety and had some mental


    issues, and identally lost you. She med herself for many years for this incident…”


    Jennifer listened in shock, feeling as though her understanding of herself had been overturned. “Even if


    I resemble your mother, there are no records of my parents or my birth in Faike Orphanage. What


    makes you so certain that I am the child of the Newton family?”


    “Indeed, you were too young when our mother lost you, and considering she went to the neighboring


    city at the time, we don’t know what unforeseen circumstances urred. You ended up being adopted


    by Faike Orphanage, which is why, for all these years, I sent many people to the neighboring city but


    couldn’t find you.”


    Craig walked to a nearby table and handed Jennifer a document.


    “I wasn’t certain either, which is why I discreetly had someone monitor your filming crew and try to


    obtain your hair for a DNA test with our mother.”


    Jennifer received the DNA test report from Craig. When she saw the words “mother and daughter”


    written in the bottom right corner of the document, tears rolled down her cheeks.


    Craig looked at her and said gently, “This test report can’t be wrong. You truly are the precious


    daughter of the Newton family and my younger sister, Elise Newton.” He ced his hands on her


    shoulder. “Starting tomorrow, will youe back to live with the Newtons? I’ll have the room prepared,


    the one our mother used to stay in. During the day, you can spend more time talking to her. For all the


    years we owed you, I’ll make it up to you double-fold.”


    “I… Can you give me some time to digest this news?”


    Jennifer had lived as an orphan for over twenty years until Craig suddenly told her that she was the


    daughter of the Newton family. Not only did she have parents, but she also had a group of siblings.


    The news was too shocking.


    It left her bewildered and she was unable to ept it at once.


    “Okay. I understand that you’re not used to it yet. We’ll take it slow and change your name first. If you


    don’t want toe live with us, I can arrange amodation for you outside. You can’t continue


    staying with Treyton.”


    Jennifer abruptly lifted her head. “Why? Treyton and I are a genuine couple. In this day and age, isn’t it


    normal for couples to live together?”


    Craig patiently exined, “It may be considered normal for ordinary families, but we belong to the third


    prominent family in Salinsburgh. Once I reveal your identity, we will have to follow the regtions of


    prominent families.”


    Although Jennifer was unfamiliar with the regtions, with Gwendolyn and Cedrick as examples, she


    could vaguely guess. “You mean we have to wait until our engagement is publicly announced?”


    “Yes. If Treyton genuinely loves you, he will ask his father to visit us and arrange the engagement,”


    Craig replied.


    “All right,” Jennifer relented.


    As long as she could still be with Treyton, she didn’t mind the formalities.


    Regarding the name change, she continued, “I’m used to being called Jennifer. Can we keep that? At


    most, I can change my surname and be called Jennifer Newton.”


    “As you wish.”


    Craig rubbed her head affectionately and looked at her face intently.


    Among his siblings, she resembled their mother the most when she was young.


    Jennifer wasn’t ustomed to being touched by any man other than Treyton. However, since Craig


    was her second brother, she suppressed her inner resistance.


    She was still holding her mother’s photo tightly in her hand, and her eyes were gradually filled with joy.


    “Does Mom live in this mansion? Can I go see her now? I’ve lived for over twenty years without


    experiencing the feeling of having a mother. I really want to hug her,” Jennifer said, expressing her


    longing.


    Craig’s hand that was caressing her head froze for a moment. He withdrew his gentle gaze and


    concealed a hint of unease in his eyes.


    Before he could answer, the bodyguard urgently knocked on the door of the ancestral hall.


    “Mr. Craig, Mr. Treyton is here! He looks angry. It’s terrifying! His men are fighting with our bodyguards!”


    “Oh no!” Jennifer eximed in shock and immediately turned and ran outside. The bodyguard quickly


    led the way, while Craig calmly followed behind.


    Outside the entrance of the Newton residence, chaos ensued.


    In a fit of anger, Treyton had already injured several of the Newton family’s bodyguards.


    “Stop! Stop fighting!”


    Upon hearing Jennifer’s voice, Treyton immediately stopped his bodyguards.


    Jennifer rushed to his side, checking if he was injured, while Treyton observed her.


    When he saw her red eyes, he became furious. Seeing Craig approaching from afar, he went straight


    to him, ready to throw a punch.


    “Craig Newton! How dare you kidnap my woman! Don’t think I won’t offend you just because you’re the


    deputy director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation! What have you done to Jennifer!”


    Craig raised an eyebrow, a slight smile ying at the corner of his lips. He casually tucked his hands


    into his trouser pockets without offering an exnation.


    “He didn’t do anything to me! He didn’t mistreat me!” Jennifer quickly embraced Treyton, who was


    about to lose control. “He’s my… second brother!”


    Upon hearing Jennifer’s words, Treyton stopped his swinging fist.


    Craig nced at the fist that was inches away and chuckled lightly. “Treyton, you were just a tiny bit


    away from permanently offending your second brother-inw!”


    “Brother?”


    Treyton looked at Jennifer in confusion.


    “It’s quite sudden, and it’s a long story. I’ll exin everything to you when we get back!” Jennifer


    hurriedly assured.


    After a long flight of over ten hours, Gwendolyn and the others finally returned to their homnd in the


    early morning of the following day.


    She stood on the stairs descending from the ne, gazing at the openndscape and breathing in the


    fresh air.


    Cedrick walked behind her and scooped her up in his arms.

    She felt weightless and immediately tightened her grip around his neck.


    He lowered his head and lightly nuzzled her nose. “Did you have trouble adjusting to the food in Erihal?


    What would you like to eat today? I’ll personally cook for you and fill your stomach.”


    Gwendolyn leaned closer to his ear and whispered something that only the two of them could hear.


    He shed a rare solemn expression and replied, “No, that’s not allowed. You’re pregnant! After I’m


    done administering the antidote, I’ll apany you to the hospital first to make sure you’re fine. Only


    then will I let you eat to your heart’s content!”


    Despite her displeasure, Gwendolyn allowed him to carry her off the ne.


    Nico had be ustomed to their constant public disys of affection and remained unaffected.


    However, being curious as girls tend to be, Nicole asked, “Nico, what do you think Ms. Gwendolyn


    wants to eat that would make Mr. Jenson show such an expression?”


    Nico remained silent.


    It seems that these two can only engage in banter and flirtation with little room for any other


    conversations beyond their daily teasing.
