Michael heared these words, and the anger surged even further. "May loved you so much, for Pete's sake. She left everything behind in Riddleton just to be with you in Northbridge. But you? For a fling, you go her killed, and now my granddaughter is missing without a trace. Paolo, how can May rest in peace knowing this?" Paolo collapsed to his knees, blood from a gash on his forehead mixing with tears as they streamed down his cheeks.

"I'm so sorry. I swear I'll find my daughter and get to the bottom of May's death." James kicked him in the belly, and his voice was tight with fury. "Paolo, if you don't find that kid, you better be ready to grovel and apologize to May in hell." The kick sent Paolo sprawling backwards, spitting blood, until his lower back crashed into the coffee table. Ignoring the searing pain, he scrambled back to his knees.

Even if Edwin hated him, this was still his father. He approached Paolo, handing him a towel. His voice was grave. "Didn't that woman have any distinctive features? What did she call herself when you were together?" "She said her nwas Mimi, a dancer at the Barna Nightclub. That's all I know," Paolo answered.

The Barna Nightclub had been the biggest hotspot stwenty years ago, now long shut down due to new regulations. Finding that woman would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Michael shook with rage. His eyes, though dimmed with age, glistened with tears. "May was such a gem, but she was conned by a mere showgirl. Eddie, James, you must track her down. I want justice for my daughter." James quickly consoled them. "Don't worry. I'll find this woman. But what about Paolo and Heidi? What do you want to do with them?" Marian was already in tears. "Just keep them out of my sight. Seeing them only remindsof my poor daughter and granddaughter. Is the child even alive?" Edwin was on the verge of spilling the truth, after seeing his grandmother so distressed, but he recalled lan's words and held back. "Grandma, I believe Mom's spirit in heaven is watching over my sister. Givestime. I'll bring her back to you." In the end, Paolo and Heidi were cast out by the York family, severing all ties.

Heidi clung to Paolo's arm, sobbing pitifully. Without the York family's protection, without the brother's affection, she could only rely on Paolo. "I'm so sorry, Dad. It's all my fault you were kicked out by Grandpa. Don't worry. I won't be a burden to you any longer. I'll leave on my own, find a place to hide away. It just means I'll never see you again, and I'll miss you terribly." She collapsed into Paolo's chest, her cries heart-wrenching.

While Paolo might despise that woman, he couldn't bring himself to hate Heidi, the daughter he'd raised from infancy. She was i e was innocent in his eyes. His large hand gently stroked En her hair as he murmured reassurances, "Don't cry. I won't let you go. If the Yorks don't want you, the Campbells won't turn you away. You're my daughter, Heidi, and you carry the Campbell blood. Even if we find that child, I won't neglect you."

When she heared this, a sinister glint flickered in Heidi's tearful eyes.
