Chapter 567 It''s Over!
Regina attempted to make another call, only to find that her number had been blocked.
She returned the phone to the passerby and copsed, almost sitting on the ground.
So... she was left with nothing now?
Her youngest daughter had run away.
Her eldest daughter expressed a desire to go abroad with Gary.
Both of her daughters had turned their backs on her.
She only had these two daughters.
She had given her all, working tirelessly and making sacrifices for the sake of her two daughters.
Yet, in the end, her daughters abandoned her without a second thought.
A thought suddenly struck her. Those whomit wrongdoings will eventually face their downfall.
She had believed that by providing for them and being a caring mother, her daughters would value and
cherish her efforts on their behalf.
But in reality?
Her daughters learned her refined selfishness from her. When it was beneficial for them to be with her,
they sweet-talked her.
Now that there were no more advantages to gain, they had fled quicker than anyone else.
She sat on a bench by the roadside, crying uncontrobly.
She was wrong.
Everything was wrong.
While she meticulously plotted and schemed against others, her daughters had absorbed her
egocentrism and cruelty.
She had treated others with self-interest, yet she had showered her own two daughters with genuine
maternal love and devotion.
And yet, they were using selfishness and cruelty against her.
Only now did she realize the significance of being an upright andpassionate individual.
If her daughters had learned integrity andpassion from her, they wouldn''t have hesitated to stay by
her side when she was in her most helpless state.
Only now did she understand what a mother should teach her children.
Unfortunately, she realized it toote.
She would never have the chance to teach her daughters again.
On the other side, Dn received the divorce agreement and immediately found Edmund.
Edmund was still recovering at Oasis Law Office.
Martin kindly gave Dn a copy of Edmund''s life experiences from childhood to adulthood.
After reading it, Dn felt heartbroken.
His son had suffered too much since childhood.
Being abducted, beaten, and adopted by the Foreman Family, bing their... servant.
Thinking of these words, he felt a pain that made it hard for him to breathe.
Although the Hahn Family couldn''t be considered a prominent family in Elsenburg, they were still
respectable figures.
Edmund was Dn''s son, yet he became a servant of the Foreman Family and was repeatedly
humiliated and tortured by Sophie.
As a father, he was the worst father in the world.
The only thing he was grateful for was that it wasn''t toote now.
He had finally found his son.
He was still rtively young, with several decades ahead of him. He could make up for his son''s
suffering.
Looking at Edmund''s expressionless face, he cautiously spoke, "Son, I have divorced Regina, and I
have also driven away Jean and Jane. Son, would you like toe home with me?"
"Sorry," Edmund said calmly. "I really like my life now and don''t n to change it."
Dn''s heart sank.
His son didn''t want to ept him.
It was only to be expected.
He had wronged his son too deeply. How could he expect forgiveness easily?
The fact that he had found his son was already a gift. He shouldn''t be too greedy.
"I know the fact that I disappointed you," he admitted with a sense of shame. "Back then, I couldn''t
have predicted that things would turn out this way. Even if I had to plead with your grandmother until
myst breath, I would have pleaded with her to reveal your whereabouts."
"There''s no such thing as ''if only'' in this world." Edmund smiled. "In fact, character determines destiny.
Your character has determined your choices. Even if you were granted another chance to go back in
time, you''d likely make the same decisions."
"No, that''s not true," Dn protested anxiously. "Losing you is the biggest regret of my life. If I could
have a chance to start over, no matter what price I have to pay, I will definitely find you!"
Edmund smiled and remained silent.
"Son..." Dn''s voice choked. "I just want to tell you that I owe you the most. I want to make it up to
you. I know materialpensation is insignificant, but I can''t change the past. Now, all I can give you is
materialpensation…"

"No need," Edmund replied calmly. "I don''tck for money."
"Whether youck it or not is your concern, but I want to provide for you. It''s my intention," Dn
exined. "I''ve transferred all the real estate in my name to yours. As for thepany, it''s a bit more
complex."
He even wanted to hand over thepany to Edmund, but he had to be responsible for thepany''s
employees.
If Edmund were unfamiliar with managing thepany and he handed it over, it could result in
bankruptcy.
That would lead to thousands losing their livelihoods, for which he''d be culpable.
"I have no interest in inheriting your properties," Edmund responded calmly. "Truth be told, I never even
contemted acknowledging you as my father. I cherish my past life, and I''m not eager to change it."
"Regardless of your acknowledgment, you''re still my son," Dn said warmly. "You''re all I have left as a
son. Everything I possess is yours."
Edmundmented, "You still have two daughters."
"One is no longer," Dn corrected awkwardly. "Jean is Gary''s daughter, and she''s no longer
associated with me. As for Jane, I''ve raised her into adulthood and done my best. Her mother is
Regina, and I want no part in her future..."
He yearned to sever all ties with his past.
From now on, he had no wife, no daughters—only a son.
Edmund struggled to find words.
He was aid-back, emotional person, which was why he endured Sophie''s repeated cruelty.
If Dn took on the role of a father and ordered him, he would have no hesitation in asking Dn to
leave.
But Dn was almost humble in front of him, speaking cautiously and carefully observing his
expression, afraid of saying something wrong and annoying him.
He wasn''t afraid of people being mean to him. If someone was mean to him, he could always retaliate.
He was afraid of people being kind to him because he didn''t know how to respond.
Dn continued to push the prepared documents in front of him. "Ed, sign these documents, and all
these properties will be yours."
Edmund frowned. "I don''t want them."
"Why wouldn''t you want them?" Leigh entered, carrying a medical kit. "Half of these properties rightfully
belong to your mother. She lost her life marrying him. No sum can bring back your mother. He owes
you these properties aspensation!"
Dn stood up very awkwardly. "This is..."
Edmund stood up helplessly and introduced, "She is the doctor at ourw office, Dr. Shefford."
Leigh put down the medical kit and picked up a stack of documents from the coffee table, flipping
through them one by one. After reading them, she handed them to Edmund along with a pen. "Not bad,
take them! Don''t let them go to waste, sign!"
