Julian Ford looked at his mother’s darkened face, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Did I... come at a bad time?"

Rouge Jarvis didn’t give him a chance to escape, "Come over here, kneel down."

Julian Ford: "..."

Finally, this day had come.

He walked over, knelt down briskly beside Aiden Shaw, and a mischievous smile appeared in his phoenix eyes, his lips curled roguishly, "Mom, we just brought the little sister back, shouldn’t we be celebrating? Is this way a bit..."

"Shut up." Rouge Jarvis scolded, her brows and eyes full of displeasure.

At this moment, as she looked at her slick-talking second son, she could just imagine that he must be the mastermind behind this scheme.

Rouge Jarvis stood up from the sofa, walked to the front of her four sons, looked down at them with a cold and complex expression, "Do you know why I made you all kneel?"

Maxim Ford lightly pressed his lips together and replied, "For hiding our sister."

Rouge Jarvis nodded and asked again, "The sister has been found, why didn’t you tell me right away?"

Maxim Ford: "..."

He was unwilling to tell his mother, knowing all these years it was her who had been preventing them from finding their sister.

It would only cause her more heartache, driving her deeper into despair.

Aiden Shaw lifted his head, his obsidian eyes clouded with a thick mist, an unreadable expression deep within them. His voice, however, was gentle, "Mom, this was my idea."

"You?"

Rouge Jarvis was quite suspicious, her fine brows knitted together.

Among these children, the last person she’d expect to do something like this was the fourth child.

Julian Ford turned to look at him, was he planning to take the blame for him?

Rouge Jarvis furrowed her brows, grabbed a chair, and sat in front of her four sons with the attitude of taking her time with them today.

"You say it was your idea, then explain, what drove you to do this?"

"I’ve always secretly loved Sixteen."

Julian Ford: "..."

Maxim Ford: "..."

Isaac Ford: "..."

The three of them looked at him, realizing now that his love had moved from secretive to open.

It was hard to imagine such words could come from the fourth, who usually showed no interest in romance, yet, indeed, this scene was happening.

Not mentioning it was bearable, but bringing it up made Rouge Jarvis even more furious internally. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Tiana was her biological daughter, a perfectly good daughter, how could she seal her fate with the fourth?

She took a deep breath and continued, "Continue, make sure to tell everything clearly, the whole story."

In this world, the only women who could speak to Aiden Shaw this way were Rouge Jarvis and Tiana Thorne.

Aiden Shaw nodded, his well-defined hand caressing the jade ring on his thumb, seemingly recalling something.

After a while, he slowly said, "When in Azurea, she suspected the elevator incident was Meredith Ford’s doing, so I’ve been keeping an eye on this."

His voice gradually turned colder, even his obsidian eyes were covered with a layer of frost.

Listening to this, the hearts of the five mother and sons went cold with fear.

"Later, she also discovered it was Meredith Ford’s doing, and my eldest brother gave out the appropriate punishment."

Rouge Jarvis listened, not interrupting him, wanting to hear more.

"In the past, Meredith Ford was diagnosed with a psychological disorder, sometimes losing control of her emotions. After the elevator incident, I communicated with Nathan via phone. Although he’s not a specialist in psychology, he did take psychology as an elective in college. Often, people with such disorders are categorized into two types."

He always cherished words like gold, hardly speaking.

Rouge Jarvis was intrigued and asked, "What are the two types?"

Aiden Shaw’s eyes filled more deeply with coldness, and in a chilling voice, he said, "Acquired and congenital psychological disorders."

Maxim Ford frowned, "Congenital?"

"Yes."

Isaac Ford also listened attentively, not quite understanding the situation.

Only Julian Ford maintained a nonchalant attitude, as if the answer was unsurprising, already somewhat aware of congenital psychological disorders.

Maxim Ford had never investigated such information, at least not until Meredith Ford did something wrong. Before, he thought she was already cured.

He asked, "What’s the difference?"

"The former can be cured with medication, psychological counseling, and self-attitude adjustments..."

He paused as he said this, the rubbing of his thumb ring stopped, then his fingertips pressed hard, turning white, his thin lips moved lightly again, his voice extremely cold, "The latter cannot be cured."

Isaac Ford asked, "Meredith Ford is the latter, right?"

"Yes."

Isaac Ford’s gaze was as sharp as an eagle, his voice tinged with icy coldness, "I’ve heard a doctor from the clan mention it before, but I’ve never encountered a congenital psychological disorder patient, nor have there been any drugs developed for this type; it’s untreatable."

Rouge Jarvis was puzzled by this, looking at the fourth, she asked, "How did you determine she is congenital?"

After Meredith Ford returned to the country, her condition had always been good, so good that Rouge Jarvis forgot she once had a psychological disorder.

"After the elevator incident, I investigated the death of Chloe Grant years ago and found that her family lived very well. In my memories, Chloe Grant’s parents always did labor work, yet they now owned villas and luxury cars."

Being from a wealthy family, it was no surprise, Chloe Grant’s parents couldn’t have suddenly become prosperous, someone helped them.

"Jesse Rivers investigated and found that although they lived prosperous lives, they never visited their deceased daughter’s grave. During one investigation, he saw Meredith Ford at the cemetery, sitting in front of Chloe Grant’s gravestone, a wine glass filled with blood, toasting the gravestone, looking disdainful, excited..."

Rouge Jarvis’s brows knitted tighter, such behavior was undoubtedly bizarre.

She understood, murmuring, "The Grant family’s wealth was given by Meredith Ford, demanding Chloe Grant’s parents to never pay respect to their deceased daughter, she wanted Chloe Grant to have nothing, even in death."

Even in death, she didn’t let go, such a person, how could one consider them normal?

Abroad, she underwent so much treatment, even inviting the highest-level psychological illness expert Professor Alan, who reported Meredith Ford’s condition to Rouge Jarvis daily.

Unexpectedly, she managed to evade Professor Alan’s watchful eyes, even becoming his disciple, the youngest female doctor.

"Afterward, I consulted Nathan, her actions informed Chloe Grant that she was the victor, also finding a sense of security. Whenever faced with setbacks in life, she would seek acknowledgment in front of the defeated, using this self-consolation to boost her confidence and do what she truly wanted."

Upon hearing this, Julian Ford’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his lips curling playfully, "She has always been a lunatic, just that you all didn’t believe it."

After speaking, he added a reminder, "Try to recall, what special event happened the last time that led her to toast blood at the grave?"
