Then Twila was taken away...
"How did she get here?"
Hestia's body quivered slightly, and after a long pause, she said, "She's your child."
Eltham stroked his fingertips, "I don't recall us ever being that close."
Hestia braced herself, "You were drunk."
Eltham's dark gaze fell on Hestia, and for a moment, Hestia felt a surge of fear, "It's true, I'm not lying to you."
"Hestia."
"I seldom drink, but that doesn't mean | can't handle my liquor."
On the contrary, he had a high tolerance.
He had never been drunk in his memory.
Moreover, how could a man who was drunk be capable of sleeping with a woman?
Thinking back on her actions, Hestia's face turned pale, and she stuttered without forming aplete sentence, "I... didn't
mean..."

"Hestia, stay away from Bri."
Seeing her face, Brittany might misunderstand.
Hestia's eyes widened in surprise, "If you care about Brittany so much, why did you bringhere? Living under the sroof,
how can we not see each other?"
"I brought you here because Twila asked for it."
"As for my fiancée, she doesn't have to follow any rules. She cane and go as she pleases." Eltham poured himself a glass of
honey lemonade, "When she visits, you just need to make yourself scarce."
Hestia bit her lip, "I...] didn't intend toe between you two."
She knew Eltham had feelings for Brittany and was aware of Brittany's status as the sole heir to the Lte estate, a figure beyond
her reach.
"Why did youe back then?"
Eltham was resentful, he put down his glass, and walked away.
Hestia stood still, staring at the glass, silent for a long time.
After Brittany becpregnant, she started having trouble sleeping in unfamiliar beds.
The royal mansion's beds were large and soft, but she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Finally, in the dead of night, she managed to feel slightly sleepy.
Suddenly, a loud "bang" woke her up!
Brittany was startled awake to see a figure standing on the balcony. She recognized the person and got out of bed!
Isaac saw she was awake and entered the room.
Brittany threw herself into his arms, "How did you get here?"
The royal mansion was heavily guarded, how could he have sneaked in?
It had been more than half a month since Isaac and she had last met, and he missed her terribly. He picked her up, supporting her
by the buttocks, and quickly walked to the bed, "I've got my ways."
Brittany inhaled his scent greedily, "I've missed you so much."
Isaac felt the same.
He gently kissed her lips, "Have you seen Hestia yet?"
"Not yet."

Isaac held her waist, "Hestia looks somewhat like you, Eltham's attraction to you wasn't purely coincidental."
Alookalike?
Brittany frowned, "So Hestia is back, when will he letgo?"
"It won't be that simple." Isaac pulled the covers over her, "Your engagement is known throughout the city, Eltham won't easily
break it off."
Besides, Eltham did have feelings for Brittany.
"Then tellmore about them."
Isaac lowered his voice and began to narrate, Brittany listened with interest, "So, that child, was Hestia's cunning plan?"
"Yes, she wanted a child."
Hestia had no family, so she desperately wanted someone of her own, and back then, she genuinely liked Eltham.
She just didn't expect that Eltham would break up with her, and that she would have to leave Craneville, wandering for eight long
years.
"Hearing this, Hestia seems quite pitiable too."
Isaac was displeased that her attention was on Hestia, he touched her lips, a hint of jealousy in his voice, "She's pitiable, and I'm
not?"
