Hearing this, Nancy Swinton's heart clenched!

Eva might not have killed Edward, but Edward died because of her. No wonder Charlie, her biological son, hated her so much!

But something felt off to Nancy. She pondered over Charlie's words and suddenly her heart skipped a beat.

"Honey, you said Dad was drunk at that time. How did he know about Eva marrying Quentin? He wasn't leaving the house, right? Was it someone from the Firth Family who told him?"

Charlie's already deep eyes grew darker, "It was Dad's driver who told him. Despite being right beside Dad, he not only failed to stop him but also didn't drive him, allowing Dad to drive alone. His intentions were malicious!"

Even Nancy sensed a conspiracy in these words.

She scoffed coldly, "So, the driver was bought off by the Lesser family?"

Charlie's self-mocking lips curled, "Although there's no solid evidence, the driver committed suicide out of guilt. Who's behind him, even a fool could guess, right?"

Nancy pursed her lips lightly. She disliked deceit and conspiracies, but she couldn't help suspecting Eva's involvement.

If Eva was involved, then she was terrifying indeed!

Even if she didn't love Edward Firth, Charlie was her biological son. To leave Charlie and cause the death of the most important person in his life, making her own son an orphan, was incredibly cruel.

At that moment, she felt a chill thinking back to her previous encounters with Eva...

However, she kept her thoughts to herself. Eva was, after all, Charlie's mother. If Eva was innocent, revealing her suspicions could deepen Charlie's hatred, which would be her fault.

Charlie's eyes grew darker, a tumultuous wave brewing within them, "Sooner or later, Quentin and I will have our battle! It's either his death or mine!"

Saying this, he suddenly turned, his gaze softening as he looked at Nancy, "Nan, I don't mean to upset you, but when I found out you weren't Andrew's daughter, I actually felt relieved. I even felt smug about it. Otherwise, I can't imagine what would happen to our relationship when I finally break with the Lesser family."

"Hehe..."

Nancy wrapped her arms around his waist, "What else could it be? It's love and war, isn't it?"

Seeing Charlie frown, Nancy burst into laughter.

"Are you silly? It's Quentin who killed your father, not my Master. If you really go to war with the Lesser family, even if I were Andrew's biological daughter, I wouldn't let him get involved. Right and wrong, grudges and gratitude, it's something you two need to settle. Even if it's a brother or father-in-law, they can only stand aside and watch silently."

Finally, a smile appeared on Charlie's face, and he gently kissed Nancy's forehead.

Feeling his tenderness and deep love, Nancy firmly said, "Even if I were Master's biological daughter, if you and Quentin go to war, I would stand by your side. After all, you are the one I'm going to spend my life with. Who is Quentin? Do I know him?"
