Chapter 1132
Sonia praised the Gray couple for being good parents… Indeed, they''re, as she put it, great
parents.
Titus and his wife had believed in thest 27 years that Henry had killed Rina Gray, and the girl was
deemed dead to the couple all these years. However, never once had the couple ever forgotten
theirte daughter.
Even to most parents, this was a nearly impossible task, for even when their child died, they were
still living, and they had to look forward, eventually. They couldn''t follow the child to the afterlife just
because the child died.
That was impossible. What was more, that child had passed 27 years.

It would be surprising if a lot of parents had long forgotten about their child that had passed nearly
three decades ago. Heavens, they might never even remember ever having that child. However, not
Titus and his wife; they remembered even until now.
On that alone, no one could criticize them for being bad parents.
Secondly, when the daughter they thought was long dead suddenly appeared in front of them, not
only had they not doubted whether this girl had some agenda, but they even epted her right
away and doted her to no end, making up for the lost 27 years.
And this also wasn''t something all parents could do, especially in elite families.
The elites valued their family and personal dignity more than anything, and they had severe vanity
as well. If they weren''t unting their family businesses, they''d be unting their significant other or
even children.
As long as there was one thing they lost to the other, they''d be a joke to thetter.
When Taylor first appeared in front of the Gray couple, she was still a timid and unrefined,
uncultured country bumpkin who knew no etiquette nor possessed any skills. But the Gray couple
didn''t despise a daughter like her and even epted her immediately after they were certain she
was indeed their daughter.
They never worried if they would be aughing stock in the circle or if their rivals would take
the chance to mock them for having such a humiliating daughter after taking her home.
Toby had to admit that even he thought highly of Titus, who cared so much about his dignity, when
he could go this far for his daughter.
On the contrary, others in the circle would never do something like this. If anything, they might not
even admit to having such a daughter, for they''d only think that bringing a daughter like Taylor home
would only bring shame to themselves and their family. Unpresentable aside, they would be
theughingstock within the circle. So they could even as much as ruthlessly abandon their own
flesh and blood.
There was a real-life example within the circle—the Lestranges.
The genuine and fake princess incident happened to the Lestranges a few years ago. A nanny had
switched the daughter for her own at birth.
Since then, the true Lestrange daughter lived a miserable life while the fake daughter lived the life
of a princess, having goodmand in nearly every aspect, allowing her to be a notable
talent within the circle and being pursued by many eligible young men.
s, the switch was brought to light one day, and the genuine Lestrange daughter returned home.
However, the fake Lestrange daughter never went back to hers and instead remained in the
Lestrange Residence. Also, her name and status were retained.
On the other hand, everything and nothing changed for the genuine Lestrange daughter, as the
Lestranges wouldn''t admit she was their true progeny. Thus, instead of announcing to the public
that she was the true daughter of the Lestrange Family, they told everyone they generously adopted
her. As for the reason, what else other than not willing to ept the fact that their actual daughter
was an ipetent, unpresentable country bumpkin? They thought having a daughter like she
would bring shame to them and their family.
On the contrary, the public might evenpliment them for their kindness if they told everyone they
adopted her. As such, they didn''t have to worry their actual daughter would bring them shame after
retrieving her, and they couldn''t also gain a favorable reputation. It was the best of both worlds.
However, for the genuine Lestrange daughter, it was no fortune but that she had only been taken to
a different hell.
After returning to her actual family, not only that her parents wouldn''t disclose her true identity to the
public, allowing them to assume she really was their adopted daughter, but the servants of the
Lestrange family would bully her covertly and tantly because they were jealous of her.
The fake Lestrange daughter, on the other hand, gradually believed that the genuine daughter was
a ticking time bomb that threatened her status and thus began acting harmless to set her up in
hopes that the Lestrange couple would hate the genuine daughter even more.
Meanwhile, as parents of the two girls, the Lestrange couple turned a blind eye to their actual
daughter from being ashamed of having such a daughter. Hence, even when they were well aware
of the bullies and torments the girl suffered, they never did anything.
Ultimately, the genuine Lestrange daughter had enough of such suffering and leaped from
Lestrange Enterprise, making her way to the afterlife. Hence, Toby believed not every parent could
be as good as Titus and his wife.
They undoubtedly epted a daughter that hadn''t been in their lives for thest twenty-plus years,
who came from a world different than theirs. Though the existence of their daughter could bring
endless ridicule to their family, they didn''t bother about how others viewed them.
He could even guarantee if the Gray couple knew Sonia was their real daughter, they would
instantly bring her home and reunite as a family, even if Sonia loathed them to her core. To make up
for Sonia and subside the hatred within her, they might even be willing to head to the afterlife.
To the couple who loved their daughter more than anything, it was very usible for them to make
such a move.
By then, Sonia would end up being the most miserable one.
She would think her revenge became the most ridiculous thing, and even because of her identity,
she not only couldn''t decisively avenge the Reed Family, it would even be the very thing that
ended her birth parents'' lives.
By then, Sonia would fall into deep madness, and it was something he didn''t want to imagine.
This was precisely why he had kept the truth of Sonia''s birth from her all this while. He wouldn''t
have to keep his lips tightly sealed if the Gray couple didn''t love their child so deeply.
Seeing that Toby fixed his gaze on her but said nothing for a long time, Sonia poked his chest
gently. "Toby, what''s running through your mind?"
A glimmer shed across Toby as he returned to reality, and he tightened his arms around her again
before drooping his eyelids to cover up the darkness surging beneath them. "Nothing. Alright, let''s
not talk about Tim''s parents anymore. It''s reallyte now; get some sleep."
At that, he reached for the switch, but Sonia grabbed his arm. "Wait, I''m not done yet. I still need
your help with something."
"Oh?" His eyes lit up as he put his arm down, intrigued. "This is the first time you''re asking for my
help. C''mon, tell me, your dear husband will help no matter what it is."
Sonia rolled her eyes at him with a flushed face, for she thought the man was getting more
audacious with their rtionship.
"It''s actually nothing big. Tim asked me to get him a ticket, but you need a specificwork to get it.
I don''t have ess to an officialwork, so I can only ask for your help."
"What ticket is this that needs a specialwork?" Toby frowned.
"Well…" Sonia didn''t keep it from him but recited Tim''s desire to visit the museum.
Having gotten his answer, he patted her back. "Alright, got it. This is simple. I''ll have Tom see to it
later and deliver the ticket right to him."
"Thanks." Sonia beamed with tion.
However, Toby'' gaze dimmed. "That''s all I''m getting? A verbal thank you? Are you not going to give
me something else?"
