Chapter 336:
“Who is it?” Hugh pressed further.
Ethel shot Hugh a meaningful look.
He got the hint right away—it had to be Cheryl or Vivien. Weren't they told not to disturb him tonight? Why then
had someone shown up?
“His new partner?” Freya asked.
“No!” Ethel retorted sharply.
“Vivien Garza?” Freya tried again.
Ethel looked at her sister with a mix of shock and curiosity. “How... how did you guess that?” How did she know
that name?
“Let her in,” Freya said calmly. She was curious about what Vivien wanted.
Ethel glanced at Hugh for confirmation and, upon receiving a nod, she went to open the door for Vivien.

“I need to discuss something with you.” Vivien moved closer to Hugh, biting her lip. “Could you tell them to give
us a moment?”
Hugh was startled. Did she understand the weight of her request? These were both his precious daughters!
Asking them to leave could easily make them feel like he favored his “new daughter” over them.
“Say whatever you need to right here,” Hugh insisted, keenly aware of Freya and Ethel’s feelings. “They are part
of this family, not outsiders.”
Vivien clenched her fists. Was Ethel really so quick to accept Freya's presence?
“What | need to discuss is rather sensitive. Are you sure it’s alright to talk about it here?” She measured her
