Chapter 741 I Know Gwenn Tanner
“Whether it was protesting at the airport, creating a scene at the restaurant, or causing commotion at my home, I believe none of these were Ursula’s initiatives.”
“Ms. Mortis, you significantly influence all this, correct? Ursula always listens to you.”
“Now that you know, I suppose I have to admit it. Actually, it’s not that I’m particularly clever…” Rowena smirked. “She’s just foolish.”
With that, she yawned and casually picked up a water glass from the table for a sip before stretching lazily. “My parents adopted her from the orphanage.”
Rowena stared at Cherise coldly. “Ms. Shaw, if I’m not mistaken, you also have a sister who shares no blood relation with you, right? You two don’t exactly get along, do you?”
Cherise narrowed her eyes but remained silent.
“There’s no biological child who doesn’t resent adopted one because the adopted child stole the affection. that their parents once solely bestowed upon them.”
Rowena continued casually, “I’ve always questioned why my parents, who already had me, would bring this additional burden home.”
“After my parents died in a car accident, I finally understood. I realized this sister with no blood relation could be useful to me!”
“You see, I told her Damien would stop chasing me away if you died, and she obediently schemed to harm you.”
“Cherise, I have never been involved in this from the start. Ursula planned and carried out everything. It has nothing to do with me.”
Cherise couldn’t help but laugh at Rowena’s skillful blame-shifting.
She observed Rowena’s indifferent expression. “Ursula has been your sister for over a decade. Don’t you. feel the slightest remorse for exploiting her in this manner?”
“Why should I feel remorse?” Rowena scoffed. “Since we were kids, she has been competing with me for everything at home. My parents even praised her academic achievements over mine, allowing her to continue her studies while denying me the same opportunity!”
“If my parents hadn’t died in a car accident during her third year of middle school, I would have been. forced to work to support her through high school!”
“So why should I feel guilty? I am my parents’ biological child. Everything should be mine and mine alone!”
Rowena’s eyes turned vengeful as she recalled memories. Her voice grew frenzied. “Ursula is not my sister! I’ve never considered her as one! If she had no useable value, I would have kicked her out long ago!”
Cherise smirked as Rowena revealed her true colors. “Who knew the so-called benevolent and the kindest sister in the world whom Ursula always defended in my presence is like this? It’s truly eye-opening.”

“Haha.” Rowena looked at Cherise with disdain. “You don’t have to feign surprise. You’ve known my true nature for quite some time, right?”
Cherise nodded. “True.”
“Three years ago, during the massive fire, you fled without a backward glance. Later, assuming I was dead, you took my identity and became Damien’s savior to live a life of luxury. I’m not surprised someone like you would treat Ursula like this.”
Rowena narrowed her eyes. “Since Ursula’s plan failed, I can’t stay here any longer. But I have something to tell you before I leave.”
Cherise frowned. “What is it?”
“I… Rowena looked into Cherise’s eyes. “I know Gwenn Tanner.”
Cherise instinctively tensed at those words. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly. “What did you say?”

🌸 Message to the Author: 🌸 Hi! I just finished reading your story, and I truly loved it — especially Damien and Cherise’s journey. But what completely stole my heart was Lennon and Lucy. Their final scene left me stunned… Lennon being alive, quietly showing up after all that time — it was such a powerful and emotional moment. But it also left me with so many feelings… What happened to him? How did Lucy react after the shock wore off? What did they say to each other? I keep thinking about them. I know they’re side characters, and the story is marked as completed, but I would truly love a bonus chapter — even a small one — to see what came next for them. They deserve that closure. And honestly? So do we, as readers who deeply connected with them. And we would also love to see more of Damien and cherise with their kids. Thank you for creating characters that live so deeply in our hearts. If you ever feel inspired, please consider giving Lennon and Lucy a little more. ❤️...
