She thought it was someone sent by Kevin, but the person said he was actually sent by her father.
Father?! This role was unfamiliar to her.
She has always been dependent on Patricia since she was young, never having seen her father, not knowing what he looks like, let alone his full
name.
Every time she asked her father, Patricia would cry. Eventually, she stopped asking altogether.
It wasn’t until that day that she found out her father had been looking for them all along, and learned about her parents‘ story.
Back then, her parents were also very much in love. They were even discussing marriage.
On the eve of the wedding, Patricia wanted to go hiking in the deep mountains, which was something she had always wanted to do but never dared to do. Patricia’s father, Dwayne Marcer, also supported her. The two of them went to a famous hiking destination in Seattle.
On the way, we also met several fellow hikers. It was rare that we shared common interests and got along well, so we teamed up without any reservations to explore and seek knowledge together.

The Marcer family’s parents were ashamed of her and wanted her to abort the child and find someone else to marry, but Patricia refused. In the end, she ended up homeless.
In order to make a living, Patricia had to leave her hometown and raise Lena on her own in a distant place.
Five years later, she secretly went to the prison again. She had thought she would wait for Dwayne to be released, but the prison officials said he had been released a year early. At that time, Patricia thought he didn’t want her anymore.
As for Dwayne, he was released from prison a year early, but he couldn’t find Patricia. He had to stay at home to take care of his sick parents, and later they passed away and he went to another place for development.
From then on, the two of them were no longer connected.
After years of hard work, Dwayne went from being a small vendor to becoming a successful entrepreneur. He is now one of the top tycoons in the business district of Los Angeles. Over the years, he never gave up on finding them, the mother and daughter.
Fortunately, Lena, who understood the truth and reconciled with her father, became the heiress of the Arnold family and changed her name to Lindsey.
As memories gathered, the car also pulled into the Arnold family.
