“I want to meet my Dad. Will you taketo him?” Hope expressed her wish as they both sat inside the car.
“Now?” Logan asked, surprised by the sudden request.
“Yes,” Hope affirmed.
Logan hummed thoughtfully and then drove towards the colony where Kasper and Martha were now living in a
small one-room apartment.
Once they had resided in a grand villa, but their circumstances had deteriorated. significantly since then. Both
Kasper and Martha were consumed by remorse for what they had done to Hope, but no amount of regret could
undo the past.
As Hope observed their situation, her heart softened towards her parents. Despite the painful memories,
witnessing their miserable condition stirred feelings of compassion within her.
Martha welcomed them into the modest apartment and gestured for them to sit on the worn-out sofa. Despite its
less than ideal appearance, Hope obliged and took a seat.
Noticing Karla's absence, Hope scanned the room for her father. “Kasper is still at work,” Martha informed them.
The news troubled Hope deeply. Her father rarely worked on weekends, and learning about his extended hours
only added to her sense of unease.
While part of her acknowledged that her father deserved consequences for his actions, she couldn't help but feel
a pang of sadness knowing that he, along with her stepmother, had already endured their fair share of hardships
and lessons.
“What does Dad do for living now?” Hope asked Martha, who was on the floor.
“Your father works for the construction company as a good carrier. He is not a permanent employee though,”
Martha replied.
Logan didn’t pity their situation since he felt they both deserved to live that think we should leave,” he
suggested to Hope.

“No, let’s wait until Dad returns,” Hope requested. She knew Logan was not in a comfort to be at this place, but
she couldn’t leave without seeing her father and talking to him.

Kasper quickly entered in and was quite happy to see Hope. “Are you well? Forgivefor not able to cto
see you,” he told Hope and asked Martha to bring something for them to cat.
“No, thank you,” Logan coldly said. He couldn't tolerate their faces since they both tortured Hope for years. Just
for Hope's sake, he was quiet for now.
“Dad, why don’t you sit? I'll bring water for you,” Hope opined and headed to the kitchen, which was visible from
the small living room. Logan had no idea what his wife was upto. Suddenly, she had turned so good to her
parents, who once wanted her to be dead. He could not understand Hope's mind in this case.
Kasper was scared to sit beside Logan since he remembered the first tLogan asked him not sit until he was
asked.
“You should sit,” Logan suddenly said.
“Thank you, but I'm fine this way,” Kasper humbly replied.
“I don’t wish to see Hope getting upset about it, Logan opined. Kasper then sat down on the small sofa. Hope
returned with a glass of water on a tray and forwarded it to her father. Kasper thanked her and drank the water.
Suddenly, he recalled how Hope always took care of his needs before the marriage. Whenever he would return
from the office, Hope would always bring him water first. He never valued her precious daughter and he truly
regretted about it.
Kasper's eyes filled with tears as he drank the water. He could see his daughter's care and love for him, even
after so many ups and downs.
Martha remained standing when Hope asked them to sit as well. Logan, now had stood. up and went beside

provide any result. Knowing about her mother was crucial for Hope.
Logan glanced at her and then at Kasper, wondering if he knew anything related to Hope's mother, which was
kept away from everyone.
Kasper’s gaze dropped to the floor, his fingers fidgeting nervously. “Why are you suddenly asking about your
mother?” he inquired, his voice strained with apprehension.
“I've always wanted to know, Dad. But you never toldthe truth about her. Now, it’s tforto uncover

essential to her sense of identity.
“What are you hiding from us? Are you truly Hope's father?” Logan nerjemed, his tone laced with suspicion.
Though he had posed this question to Kasper before, he now felt a growing sense of distrust, suspecting that
Kasper had been deceitfal win him.
Kasper felt he could no longer keep the silence about Hope’s mother. He was scared with Logan than anyone
around him. Lying was no longer an option. The ruth which he was supposed to hide would have to be revealed
finally. But he still fein no keep the truth hidden.
Logan’s phone beeped and he took it out. His eyes widened to see the message. Dod you have an elder brother.

Kasper gulped and he looked at Logan. “Say the truth, or I'll make your life more miserable than ever. Logan

Hope stopped blinking to hear the truth. Her feet trembled and she almost fell to her knees when Logan caught
her at the right time. “He is lying, right?” Hope looked into Logan's eyes.
Kasper and Martha had left their respective seats by now.
“My father and mother were different Hope said and tears streamed down her cheeks. Logan tried to calm Hope

“And why did you never tellyou had a brother?” Hope questioned him.
“Because it wasn’t supposed to be revealed,” Kasper pronounced. “You are the werewolf mentioned in the

supposed to stay hidden,” he stated.
“Wh-what are you even saying?” Hope got puzzled.
Logan furrowed his brows together as he suddenly recalled about the legend. But he never believed it because it
was written centuries ago.

“It was an accident. | don’t know how they both died. But when | saw my brother for the last time, he toldto

“Luckily, you survived and we took you as our own daughter. In the Ravenclaw Family, we cannot break

Hope was unable to comprehend what more to say. The sudden truth revelation was too much for her.

Hope glanced at him and murmured, “Your birthday falls on the sday.”
“Yes. And my parents died the sday,” Logan pronounced with a confused and shocking expression.
