He approached Noelle and gave her a photograph.
“Take a look at this.”
Noelle collected it with skepticism.
The image was a woman in her early thirties, gazing at the camera with a gentle smile.
Though not strikingly beautiful, she possessed an undeniable charm.
The most remarkable aspect was that Noelle bore a striking resemblance to this woman.
However, Noelle was certain she had never worn the clothes in the photo or taken such a picture.
There was no way the woman captured in the photo was her.
Growing more suspicious, Noelle glanced up at Mekhi and inquired, “What is this?”
“I’m an irresponsible brother. I apologized, for it’s all my fault.

I’ve been consumed by work these past years, neglecting the entertainment industry. If I hadn’t seen you that day, I doubt I still wouldn’t have known where you are now. You’ve been through so much all these years,” Mekhi confessed, his expression filled with remorse.
“Brother?”
Her heart skipped a beat. She glanced at the photo in her hand again, and then back at him in disbelief.
“This must be some mistake. I was raised in an orphanage in Forden.
I have no connection to the Shaw family. You can’t possibly be my brother.”
Hands clasped behind his back, he met her gaze and calmly began to unfold the entire story.
“When you were born, the Shaw family was in turmoil. I was only eight years old at the time. Our father went on a business trip to Eurfrica. When he returned, he brought along his one-year-old illegitimate son, Kyson.”
Noelle’s confusion deepened.
“What does Kyson have to do with me?”
With a dark face, Mekhi went on.
“Our father wanted our mother to take Kyson as her own and tell everyone she was his mother. But she couldn’t agree. Not only had he cheated on her, but he also brought that love child back into our lives. She was furious and ran away from home alone when she was already eight months pregnant.”
He paused as the weight of the revelation sunk in.
“She gave birth to you all by herself. She was anxious during those days, dealing with mental pressure at the time. It was an accident that she lost you. She blames herself till this day…”
Noelle’s world was shattered as she absorbed his words, her shock palpable.
