    Chapter 1889


    Ellinor didn’t believe her mother’s professed disinterest and continued, “The Howard’s backyard is


    home to a particr flower, beautiful, rare, and difficult to cultivate. It’s called the Moonlight.”


    Hearing this, Marlinie’s pupils contracted in shock, and she looked at Ellinor with astonishment.


    “What?”


    Ellinor went on, “Mr. McNeil told me it was histe wife’s favorite flower. Over the years, he’s been


    spending most of his time tending to that garden, caring for those flowers. Even his current wife, he


    hardly pays her any attention. They live under the same roof but sleep in separate beds.”


    Marlinie was shocked and puzzled at the same time, “Ellinor, why are you telling me all this?”


    Ellinor replied, “No specific reason. I just wanted to share my observations of the Howard family. Oh,


    and Mr. McNeil never intended to marry his current wife. The two children they have were conceived


    through medical intervention.”


    Marlinie’s eyes trembled.


    Conceived through medical intervention?


    After sharing these details, Ellinor started eating her breakfast and didn’t say anything more.


    She didn’t want to speak on behalf of the Howard family or her absent biological father. She was just


    stating what she knew.


    She didn’t want to bring it up with her mother, but after Bertha’s suggestion, she hoped her mother


    could find peace in herter years.


    After finishing breakfast and discussing some other matters, Ellinor picked up Baber to return to his


    hospital room.


    It was time for the nurse to check on Baber.


    Knowing the situation, Marlinie didn’t dy her daughter, allowing her to apany the child for the


    check-up.


    Once Ellinor left, Marlinie started contemting the words her daughter had shared.


    Mr. McNeil had filled his garden with Moonlights? They were her favorite flower but weren’t suitable for


    the city’s climate. How could he have managed to make them bloom in such weather?


    Bertha saw a positive change in Marlinie’s mood and smiled with relief.

    Thankfully, Ellinor was smart and considerate.


    Stepping out of her mother’s hospital room with Baber in her arms, Ellinor encountered a figure she


    hadn’t seen in a long while.


    “Ellinor, Mr. nchet asked me to stay with you and young master Baber.” Collin approached


    respectfully and efficiently.


    He was still as reliable as he was years ago, Theo’s most trusted aid.


    However, Collin disappeared with Theo three years ago, and Ellinor thought he had been killed by


    Sophia’s men!


    Seeing Collin again, Ellinor was both surprised and delighted, asking, “Collin, where have you been


    these years?”


    Collin replied, “Thanks to Mr. nchet, I was trained in many advanced skills years ago. Sophia’s men


    thought I was still useful and spared my life. They kept me in a techpany in M State, forcing me to


    work for them. I was under surveince 24/7. Mr. nchet just sent someone to rescue me.”


    Ellinor patted his shoulder, “I’m d you’re back! You’ve been through a lot, haven’t you?”
