Chapter 1744:
As Elwood broached this sensitive topic, he felt a spark of anger toward Kylee ignite within him.
Elwood felt very frustrated that Kylee had acted that way.
Yet, when he considered the possibility that Kylee could be the biological daughter of him and Carola, an
overwhelming wave of powerlessness coursed through him.
Upon hearing Elwood’s words, Carola stayed quiet, but her face gradually darkened.
Instinctively, Elwood tried to justify Kylee's actions, saying, “I believe Ms. Wright was likely just overwhelmed by
fear at the time, so she...” But as he spoke, his words faltered, unsure of how to proceed.
Carola’s brow furrowed slightly, her lips tightening as she responded icily, “I know my daughter well. You don’t

need to explain anything further.”
“Alright, | won't say anything about it. That's what you want, isn’t it?” Elwood’s voice carried a subtle hint of
indulgence.
Carola, however, was instantly furious.
She whipped her head around, her eyes blazing with rage as she looked at Elwood. “What are you trying to
achieve? Elwood, whatever existed between us was over two decades ago! It's ancient history! I've built a new
life, a new family. Why are you reappearing now? I'm pleading with you—stay out of my life from now on, okay? |
don’t want my husband or daughter to misunderstand anything. Do you understand me?”
Carola’s sudden outburst left Elwood stunned.
Her words hit him like a blow, tearing at his heart.
Her mention of her husband particularly ignited a spark of anger within him. “Your husband? You mean the man
who betrayed you after your marriage, used your money to support his mistress outside, and even had a child
with her?” Elwood’s voice dripped with sharp mockery.
“And so what?” Carola countered defiantly. “What does it have to do with you?”

Elwood was rendered momentarily speechless, a heavy weight settling in his chest, making it difficult to breathe.
“Now, please, Mr. Wright, leave. | need to rest,” Carola said curtly, dismissing him without hesitation.
Faced with Carola’s icy demeanor and clear rejection, Elwood felt resigned. At that moment, he desperately
wanted to understand what had transpired all those years ago.
Why was Carola so hostile toward him?
He could feel her resentment radiating, but the reason eluded him.
Hadn't Nalani told him that Carola was the one who had betrayed him back then?
What had really happened all those years ago?
Noticing that he remained seated, motionless, Carola snapped, “Are you leaving or not?”
Hearing that, Elwood finally rose to his feet.
Looking at Carola, he said softly, “Take care of yourself. I'm leaving now.” With that, he turned and walked away.
