Beyond The Divorce - Season 8 Episode 87

I might have sounded nonchalant, but I knew Anson would understand.

He glanced at me. “Her fate? You’re right. She’s been like a boy ever since she was a child. She would mingle with them and endure all kinds of hardship without complaining. I never spoiled her. After all, she was destined to shoulder the great responsibility that is the Huffman family.”

Anson looked up and gazed blankly at the tree in the courtyard.

He looked desolate. Maybe he really did think of me as his family.

“I thought it might have been dangerous for her to do all that, but she’s been by my side handling the business since she was fifteen. She’s faced danger several times, but she has never flinched, and she’s only become more resolute.”

I involuntarily recalled the first time I saw Trinity. She had entered my line of sight with Jared, emanating a fierce aura. Even her gaze had been cold and ruthless.

But fate was fickle, and I had discovered another side of her. She was innocent and gentle, just like a girl next door.

“My father established the Huffman family’s influence in the business world. I grew up fighting alongside my father, and I was well aware of the danger. But the Huffman family makes their money from these risks.” Anson spoke calmly.

There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

“But now I understand. She’s just a girl, after all. That’s why I believe Jared is good for her.” He glanced at me after saying this.

“He’s been by Trinity’s side for so many years, escorting and protecting her, but…”

My heart tightened. I knew what he was going to say next.

Complicated feelings surged within me.

Images of Ivanna and Trinity alternated in my mind.

I remembered the first time I met Trinity and Jared.

I also remembered Ivanna cooking and Jared serving dishes just a few days ago. It was a warm scene.

“He’ll keep doing it,” I reassured Anson with certainty.

Anson smiled, and the gleam in his eyes deepened, but he didn’t say any more.

After a long silence, he stood up and said, “Let’s go. I’ll show you around the house.”

I quickly got up and followed Anson.

He led me through the courtyard toward the inside. Along the way, the pavilions and towers resembled scenery I used to see in dramas as a child.

But now was no time for sightseeing.

“This is the territory my father and I built together.” As he slowly walked with me, he recounted the history of the Huffman family.

“We were very poor in the early days. When I was young, this place was still a village, and the Huffman residence was just a thatch house.” He sounded proud of what his family had achieved.

“Later, my father paved the way by doing things no one else dared to do. He built this mansion bit by bit. continued to expand, and that’s how we got to where we are now.” He gestured to everything around us. “I’ve always thought of this as Trinity’s kingdom, but it’s not that simple.”

He sighed regretfully. “If only she had a brother. She could be the carefree little princess of the Huffman family then.”

I felt a pang in my heart. It looked like everyone had regrets, no matter who they were.

“It seems that she’s still alone and powerless. If only she had a shoulder she could lean on. That would be wonderful,” said Anson.

“So you think Jared is the most suitable person for her?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes. He can be cunning, but I don’t mind, as long as he really does care for Trinity. I can entrust both the Huffman family and my daughter to him. But… if he doesn’t love her, that’s a different story…”

I knew exactly what Anson meant. But from what I saw, Jared did not seem to be interested in the Huffman family. I always felt that Jared must have had his reasons for staying loyal to Trinity for so many years when he didn’t love her.
