"I don't know why you're looking for that brooch, but I'm sorry, I can't help you." My words beceven more abrupt.
Ross seemed to sense my cold attitude and looked atapologetically. "I know it's a bit presumptuous ofto cto you like this, Chloe. Please..." "Chloe." Trinity interrupted Ross's lowered tone.

"I understand that you feel nothing for the Avila family. It's not your fault, but don't blyour cousin." Trinity spoke up.
Indeed, my indifferent attitude stemmed from the resentment I harbored toward the Avila family ever since I learned about my origins.
I realized Trinity was trying to defend Ross.
I couldn't help but feel a surge of anger from the bottom of my heart. "When the Avila family disapproved of my father, it caused my mother to leave Yare and the Avila family. Because of that, she died alone in a foreign land." This time, my attitude was hostile.
"I can't imagine how helpless my mother must have felt then. When I returned to Nocturnia, David toldthat at her most desperate moment, she turned to an elder from the Pierce family for help. If the Avila family had shown even a shred of compassion back then, perhaps my mother wouldn't have died." I choked up momentarily, biting my lip to prevent myself from appearing weak.
"After that, the Avila family never helped me, even though I was her only child. They left a ten-year-old girl alone and destitute, chased and persecuted, wandering in misery..." My voice was loud, revealing an undeniable truth.
"In the end, although I survived, I lost more than ten years of memory and barely clung to life. If Atlas hadn't persisted in looking for me, I would have probably died long ago.

"For twenty years, did you all even remember that Lucille's daughter was still wandering outside and her fate was unknown?" To be honest, I felt conflicted about my cousin's sudden appearance.
"Today, I've finally met a member of the Avila family. When Atlas askedhow viewed the Avila family once, I said that the Avila family et existence means nothing tobecause they never treatedas family.

I glanced at them indifferently. "It's late, so I won't keep you at Pleca Park. Trinity knows that I need rest because of my pregnancy." Trinity looked at my indifferent expression and hesitated, but Ross's outstretched hand stopped me.
"Trinity," Ross interrupted Trinity, who wanted to continue speaking.
Then, he said, “It's my fault, Chloe. The Avila family owes you too much. Your health is important, so we'll take our leave now." I nodded lightly. "Okay. Jim, please see our guests out."
