Chapter 1235

Quinton immediately panicked when he saw Renee’s teary face, and grabbed her
shoulders. “Renee, are you okay? Do you hate me for restoring this place? Stop crying. I’ll
make a call now and ask them to demolish it, and we can rebuild it the way you like. What
do you think?”
With a shake of her head, Renee wiped away her tears and hugged Quinton. “No, you did
such a good job that I thought we had travelled back in time. It looks exactly like the
Everheart Manor I grew up in. I’m only crying because I’m touched and recalled a lot of my
childhood memories. How nice it would be if you weren’t kidnapped back then and you grew
up with me…”
Renee confessed her inner thoughts to Quinton. She was indeed very touched; only family
members could give one this kind of feeling. However, when she thought of how Quinton
had done those cruel things, she felt conflicted.
“Silly girl, we can’t change the past, but we have control over the present and future. We
should live in the moment.” Quinton patted her back to comfort her. He stared at the
beautiful house in pride, and began to imagine the wonderful memories they would create
here in the future.
“I made a swing under the large pagoda tree in the yard, so you, Adie, and Abby can play
there. The pagoda tree smells so good, and when its flowers fall, it looks like snow. I’m sure
the two kids will like it…”
“Yeah, I’m sure they will. I loved playing with the swing in the yard during my childhood. I
didn’t expect you to restore such a small thing,” Renee sobbed as she spoke.
Her brother was indeed the best in the world… How could she accuse him?
“There, there. Stop crying. Let’s not just stand here, we should go in and take a look
around.” Quinton let go of Renee and held her hand as they walked into Everheart Manor.
Renee remained silent as she walked behind him. She was greatly moved by what Quinton
had done, but at the same time, she wondered when she should talk things out with him.
More than an hour passed by this way, and finally, she knew that she could not delay it
anymore. She had to uncover those dark secrets for the sake of Joanne, Stefan, and
Quinton.
“Ren, look. This back garden is vacant now but I planted the sunflower seeds from Angria a
while back. You’ll be able to see a garden full of sunflowers when you come here next
month,” Quinton said enthusiastically as he stood on the balcony on the second floor.
Renee was his younger sister and his last remaining family member. He tried his best to
treat her nicely, and yearned to give her all the best things in the world. He had heard from
Margaret that Renee loved sunflowers the most, so after asking around, he shipped a batch
of high-quality sunflower seeds all the way from Angria.
The sunflower was the national flower of Angria, so naturally, the ones that grew there were
the best. Renee deserved the best of everything.
“And I dug up a manmade lake over there, so you and the kids can sail a boat there. And…”
“Quinton!” Renee took a deep breath and interrupted him. At his confused look, she sighed
and looked at him solemnly.
