Upon hearing Widi’s plan to apply for graduate studies, Teresa’s first thought was that it was unnecessary.

She explained earnestly to Widi, “Widi, women don’t need to work too hard. You just need to be happy. Your brothers will always watch your back…”

That had always been her mindset. Her marriage was arranged, so naturally, she planned the same for her daughter.

However, the young lady standing in front of her immediately lowered her head to look at her phone, clearly indifferent to her mother’s advice.

Teresa took a deep breath, suppressing the faint irritation rising in her heart. She changed her approach and asked gently, “Then can you tell me why you suddenly decided to study archaeology?”

Teresa had never asked this question before because she didn’t care.

In her opinion, it was nothing more than a childish fascination that would fade with time.

However, things didn’t go as she expected. As Widi grew older, this idea became more deeply ingrained in her mind.

Because the situation was harming Teresa’s interests and causing conflict between them, she decided to find out the reason for Widi’s obsession.

But she hadn’t expected that Widi was unwilling to talk about it.

Widi knew that if someone didn’t care about you, there was nothing you could do about it, regardless of the reason.

Some things were better kept to herself.

Yet Teresa’s question made her recall something from long ago.

Widi still remembered, when she was little, she had once attended an old man’s birthday party with her parents. There were a lot of people there, most of whom she didn’t know.

A servant took her to play with the other children, but they were all chattering loudly. She found it noisy and struggled to fit in, so she ended up feeling lonely.

She wanted to find her mother, but as soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, she got lost.

That old man’s house was similar to hers, a large estate with multiple courtyards, but it felt strange to her.

Lost and alone, Widi spotted Ian. His face seemed familiar, but she couldn’t quite place him.

He recognized Widi first and approached her, asking, “Widi, are you lost?” Widi nodded, and he lifted her up.

Despite not yet recognizing him, she rested her head on his shoulder and offered a polite and shy, “Thank you.”

At that time, she thought the good–looking man was only a few years older than her.

Ian smiled amicably at her and asked, “Don’t you remember me, Widi? I visited your house during Christmas. My last name is Holmes.”

That moment remained vivid in Widi’s memory. Even now, she would occasionally recall it.

Now that she was older, she found that all children looked the same. She would see them and forget their faces immediately, except for someone as beautiful as Yvonne.

But back then, lan had recognized her at a glance and even called her by name. To her, that was truly impressive.

Her curiosity and growing fondness drew her to him.

Later, she was taken back to her mother’s side, sitting there while watching lan chat happily with Wilson, the birthday man.

She was too far away to hear anything, but just watching quietly made her feel content.

Wilson was showing the bracelet he was wearing to lan happily. The latter said something in response, making Wilson’s smile grow wider.

At that time, Widi thought to herself, ‘He’s amazing. He can talk to the eccentric Mr. Thornton for so long!

As the two men kept talking, they stood up and left.

She was curious and told her mother about it, but her mother was busy chatting with a woman and didn’t pay attention to her, so she was able to slip away easily.

She had never expected her curiosity to lead to her accidentally breaking a porcelain piece that Wilcon had just recently bought.

Upon bumping into the servant, she froze. When the sound of the porcelain shattering echoed through the air, her mind went blank, and her body stiffened. She stood motionless with the fragments around her feet.

The servant Widi bumped into was terrified and bowed repeatedly in apology, but Widi remained frozen in shock.

Wilson walked over quickly with his cane. The smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with anger and distress.

The servant’s apology grew louder, but Widi remained motionless until Ian approached and crouched beside her amidst the broken porcelain.

He searched through the broken pieces until he seemed to find what he was looking for. Picking it up, he said something to Wilson.

After Ian finished speaking, the distress on Wilson’s face disappeared, but the anger intensified.

However, this time, it wasn’t directed at her.

Wilson told the terrified servant that it was fine and that it wasn’t her fault. He didn’t blame anyone. Instead, he muttered, “Let’s just be glad no one got hurt.”

Widi had no idea what had just happened. It felt like the whole situation had resolved itself before she even had a chance to

react.

Ian reached out and led her away from the mess, then asked if she had gotten lost again while looking for her mother. Dazed, Widi nodded.
