Without opening her eyes, Lilah replied lazily, "Just tell me, I'm exhausted."

Gerard considered his words before summarizing, "In short, it's another tale of a tumultuous romance within a wealthy family.

Alivia is the daughter of the matriarch's confidante, beautiful and capable.

The key point is her unwavering devotion to Absolon. Her greatest wish in her youth was to marry him. But, while she had feelings, Absolon had none for her. His heart belonged to someone else, and he married another, never sparing her a glance."

Alivia was not one to give up easily. When Absolon was with Joselyn, she colluded with Danna to create trouble. Fortunately, Absolon and Joselyn's relationship was rock-solid, and they hever wavered.

Later, after Absolon and Joselyn parted ways due to certain events, Alivia tried to take advantage of the situation, even resorting to underhanded methods to try and trap Absolon into a relationship.

But she still failed and was instead reprimanded and humiliated by Absolon.

She relentlessly pursued him, but as the years passed, she grew older, and her family arranged her marriage to the owner of a listed company in Northam, making her a trophy wife.

"This Alivia sounds like the typical villainous supporting female character. According to the novel's clichés, she might be the mastermind behind Absolon and Joselyn's breakup, right?"

Lilah mused.

Just then, their car pulled into the estate. Gerard got out first, gently lifting the sleepy Jerrold, and then extended a hand to help Lilah out of the car.

"Who knows? But it's been a long time since those events.

Investigating further details won't be easy. If we want to uncover the truth, we might need to find her, " he suggested.

Lilah nodded, acknowledging the logic in his words.

However...

Considering Joselyn's current situation, she had beauty, wealth, and a cherished daughter. Why would she want to revisit old grudges and meddle in others' family affairs?

Even if it turned out to be a misunderstanding, Lilah thought, it might not change anything.

"I know what you're thinking, Gerard said, taking her hand and gently rubbing her palm. "Joselyn might not want to revisit the past, but at the very least, we need to help your father let go of the past."

Lilah agreed.

"So, is Alivia still in Northam?" she asked.

Gerard called Calvin, instructing him to quickly find Alivia's current location.

A few minutes later, Calvin replied with a surprising revelation.

Alivia was currently in Eleywood.

Moreover, she had already met with Joselyn.
