After hearing that shocking revelation from his mother, Aiden leaned forward on the bed, his voice sharp with urgency. "Mom, did Nana ever tell you who your biological parents are?"
On the other end of the call, Ophelia sighed softly before answering. "I asked them back then, but they told me my biological parents were dead. They said those people weren't important and that there was no use searching for them anymore. Since they were already gone, I didn't see the point in clinging to ghosts. And honestly, Aiden, your Nana and grandfather have always treated me with so much love. They raised me, gave me a family, and I never wanted to hurt them by chasing after people who no longer existed."
