he usually gentlemanly and refined Orion was no longer gentle, shouting
at me with disgust in his eyes.
At that time, I wanted to explain, but couldn’t explain anything. In the end, I
could only keep bowing and apologizing, saying I was wrong, that I shouldn’t
have fallen for him.
But Orion didn’t calm down.
The next day, he resigned from the job I had lined up, and under the guise
of studying abroad, sent me to a remote university overseas.
To prevent me from contacting the outside world, Orion even hired. bodyguards to watch me..
At first, I didn’t understand why Orion treated me this way.
Until the first month after I went abroad, news of Orion’s marriage went
viral.
Only then did I realize that all these years, he had always had someone in
his heart.
I watched Orion’s wedding video over and over again.
In the video, when looking at Melissa, Orion’s gaze was gentle and loving.
He had never looked at me that way.
From that moment on, I knew that Orion keeping me by his side for so
many years was just out of sympathy and responsibility.

“Miss John, please get in the car,” the assistant’s voice brought me back to
reality.
I nodded and got into the car with the sleeping Uma.
When he saw Uma, the assistant’s face showed a hint of surprise: “Miss
John, this is…?”
I made a shushing gesture, afraid our conversation would disturb Uma’s
sleep.
After sitting in the back seat, I answered softly: “This is my daughter.”
The assistant nodded and fell silent.
When he drove to our destination, I was stunned.
This hotel was where Orion and Melissa got married.
Five years of marriage, he held a wedding anniversary celebration every year, and personally selected gifts for Melissa.
I thought, Orion really cherished Melissa,
In previous years, he didn’t allow me to enter their world. Inviting me back this year was probably just to let me witness their happiness.
I numbly got out of the car and saw Melissa smiling as she walked towards
- me.

Melissa’s smile suddenly froze.
I knew she had seen Uma in my arms.
Sure enough, when she came to my side, Melissa’s expression was very surprised: “Yara, how did you secretly have a child abroad without telling me? I’ve been married to your uncle for so long, you still treat me like an outsider.
Before I could speak, Melissa took Uma from my arms without asking.
Uma woke up and immediately started crying, struggling not to let Melissa
hold her.
I took Uma back from Melissa and comforted her for a while.
Actually, Melissa knew about my past crush on Orion.
Returning this time, I didn’t want to get too involved with Melissa.
But Melissa still stubbornly wanted to hold Uma.
When Melissa and I arrived at the hotel’s private room, Uma was still crying and wanting me to hold her.
Melissa forced a smile and handed Uma back to me: “Your uncle knows
having children isn’t easy. We haven’t thought about having kids these past few years. Seeing you’ve had a daughter, I got too excited.”
There were already several people sitting in the room.
I wasn’t used to socializing, so I chose a corner seat, and Melissa sat down
next to me.

She enthusiastically linked arms with me, introducing me and Uma to the
others.
The looks others gave me were visibly teasing and probing.
I couldn’t stand the strange atmosphere here and said I wanted to go to the
restroom.
When I came back after washing my face, I heard Melissa’s voice.
Someone asked Melissa why she brought in an unlucky thing like me.
“What unlucky thing, Yara is Orion’s sister. Although she went down the wrong path and tried to seduce Orion before, now that she’s had a child, she definitely won’t make mistakes again.”
Hearing Melissa say this, I just quietly stood at the door of the private.
room.
Yes, in others‘ eyes, I was just a madwoman who tried to seduce her uncle,
a shameless slut.
Uma tugged at my clothes uneasily, and I comforted her before entering
the room.
Some things have to be faced eventually.
I don’t know how long passed, but suddenly everyone in the room stood

“Hello, Mr. John!”
A group of people crowded around him, while I didn’t move, just sitting in
my seat.
After a long time, I finally raised my head and looked at Orion.
He seemed to have lost some weight.
Orion wore a suit, with Melissa leaning on him. When they looked at each other, their eyes were full of smiles.
Orion was surrounded by people and didn’t notice me in the corner.
All these years, he who should have been the center of attention still was, while the only one not doing well was me.
Suddenly, Melissa seemed to remember something and pushed Orion with a smile: “Orion, Yara is here too. You uncle and niece haven’t seen each other for so many years, catch up a bit. Yara even brought back a surprise!”
Hearing the word “surprise“, Orion remained unmoved, first helping
Melissa sit down and ordering her a glass of milk before raising his eyes to look in my direction.
Uma shrank into a ball, looking very wary.
Orion obviously saw Uma too, his eyes widening suddenly.
“Yara, what is this?”
