Chapter 321 Sydney was stunned. She had never imagined the Hutton family carried such a history. A daughter who should have grown up as the cherished jewel of the household, yet no one even knew where she had gone. With the Huttons' influence in Brimcrest City-even 20 years ago-how could they have failed to find their own child? "My sister wasn't lost in Brimcrest." Catching the shock on Sydney's face, James continued, "All these years, we've been searching.
We just don't know if she's even still alive somewhere in this world." Back then, Theodore had gone to open the company's Brookville branch. Deeply devoted, Florence had followed him. It was in Brookville that the youngest Hutton daughter was born. When she was just over two years old, enemies kidnapped her. The Huttons called the police and mobilized every contact they had, but the trail ended at the Southeast Lavian border. Decades later, they had scoured Brookville and Southeast Lavia again and again, without finding a single clue. Sydney was still an outsider.
For James to share such a secret so openly with her, a mere physician, was already extraordinary. She didn't press for details, only said softly, "I'm sure your sister is blessed. She'll be safe." "Let's hope your words come true." The Huttons had heard that reassurance countless times over the years. Yet, from Sydney's lips, it somehow brought a rare sense of comfort. For a moment, it felt as if their little sister truly was still alive, waiting for them to find her. And when they did, the Huttons would spend the rest of their lives making it up to her-a thousandfold.
"What are you two whispering about?" Florence, already seated in the dining room, beckoned Sydney with a smile. "Dr. Wilson, come eat. The soup with fish maw turned out especially well today." After years of treating elderly patients, Sydney had grown adept at interacting with seniors. She felt a genuine warmth as she looked at Florence. Unlike the harmony of the Hutton household, the ride to meet the Wolfens was filled with fury. In the car, Eloise slapped the center armrest repeatedly. In the passenger seat, Jason worried she might make herself ill.
"Madam, please calm down." "Calm down?" The flesh under Eloise's chin trembled with rage. "How did Sydney manage to latch onto the Hutton family? And now she's treating Florence's legs? With her pathetic half-baked skills? What does she have to treat anyone with?" 1/2 Chapter 321 +25 Bonus In medicine, true mastery took decades. Yet this wretched girl kept making a fool of them all, one day claiming a breakthrough in cancer research, the next claiming to cure crippled legs. And people actually believed her. Had they all lost their minds? Jason regained his composure first.
"The Hutton family won't tolerate being deceived. If they ever find out that Sydney's bluffing, she'll be finished in the medical world." The Huttons were known for their kindness and reason. But that didn't mean they would suffer being made fools of. When they chose to support you, they treated you as an honored guest. When they turned against you, it became an entirely different story. Eloise took several deep breaths to steady herself. "The problem now isn't punishing Sydney. It's how to face the Wolfens." She had already stood them up once.
If she did it again, the Wolfens would never deal with her, and they might even become enemies. Yet if she wanted to undermine Julian's power, she'd need the Wolfens as allies. Jason thought for a moment, then flashed a sly smile. "With the Huttons backing Sydney, we can't touch her for now. But if we want to give the Huttons an explanation, there's another way." Eloise narrowed her eyes. "What way?" P Comments Support Share 2/2 admin
