Chapter 517 Backstory
“Grandson?”
Hazel let out a bitter laugh. “My father always despised that wretched man. When my sister was
pregnant with you, she used the excuse of training to leave home and secretly give birth to you. At that
time, Father had no knowledge of it, and Aurelia only confided in me. So, in my father’s eyes, you were
an illegitimate child. He didn’t consider you his grandson.”
As Hazel spoke, her expression grew increasingly cynical.
“Is this the answer you were seeking? Are you happy now?”
Are you happy now?
Hazel’s words pierced Emrys‘ heart like a sharp sword.
The truth that I had tirelessly sought turned out to be brutally harsh.
Emrys felt a profound sadness, as if a stone was lodged in his chest, suffocating his breath.
He didn’t know what he should do.
His father had killed his mother, and now his grandfather wanted him to pay for his father’s actions.
What a twisted relationship it was.
Emrys had never even imagined that the truth would be this devastating.

“May I have a few minutes alone with my mother, Aunt Hazel?” Emrys pleaded, his eyes filled with
desperation.
The way he addressed her sent a shudder through Hazel’s body.
She didn’t speak, nor did she nod or shake her head. She simply turned around silently and walked
away, standing dazed at the entrance of the cemetery.
The same melancholy that Emrys felt overwhelmed her too.
Aurelia had only confided in Hazel about her pregnancy in the past, keeping it a secret from the rest of
the Mapleton family.
Hazel could still hear the pride in Aurelia’s voice when she spoke about it, as if bringing a life into the
world was the most admirable achievement of her life.
Out of consideration, Hazel had helped her keep the secret.
However, who could have predicted that the events that unfolded later would bring such profound
sorrow to her and her father?
That man is the source of all our pain and hatred. He deserves to die!
“Where is that scoundrel, Hazel?”
Lost in the pain of the past, Hazel suddenly heard a raspy voice coming from a distance.
She spotted a man with a head full of white hair, his face marked by the passage of time, approaching
with a dark expression.

Chapter 517 Backstory
It was Pascal, the guardian at Jipsdale Martial Arts Alliance. Headquarters, and Hazel’s father.
Pascal was only in his sixties, but he looked like an octogenarian who had endured a lifetime of trials
and tribulations.
His hair had turned white overnight upon hearing of his daughter’s death.
It was evident just how tormented he felt.
“Dad.”
Hazel’s expression turned hesitant as Pascal approached.
“D*mn it!”
Pascal had noticed Emrys in the cemetery and roared in fury, “What right does that bastard have to set
foot in the Mapleton family’s cemetery? What right does he have to kneel before Aurelia’s grave?”

Hazel quickly intervened, pleading, “Dad, the one who deserves. to die is that man, not Emrys. Emrys
is innocent!”
“Innocent?”

Pascal snorted coldly. “How is he innocent? As long as that man’s blood runs through his veins, he is
not innocent! I want him dead and to apologize to Aurelia face–to–face!”
Chapter 517 Backstory
Hazel urgently said, “You’re right. He is that man’s offspring, but he is also your grandson-”
“Shut up! I don’t have a grandson like him! He’s a bastard and doesn’t deserve to live in this world!”
“Dad!”

Hazel dropped to her knees before Pascal with a thud, tears. streaming down her face as she asked,
“So many years. passed, so why can’t you let it go?”
“Get up!”
“No! If you are determined to kill Emrys today, then I will kneel here until my death. You might as well
take my life too!”
Tears flowed continuously from Hazel’s eyes.
When Emrys was just a baby, she understood that no matter how much she begged, her father would
never permit him to remain in the Mapleton family, so she clandestinely entrusted him to a priest.
She was unaware of the priest’s destination with Emrys.
