"My.. mum.. was.. an illegitimate child!?!" Although it was a whisper, it looked more like she was trying to convince herself that her mother was not a legitimate child. Not only that, her grandfather's name was… Quan Cheng. 

'The oldest person in this business world, Quan Cheng.' Each and everyone knows that Quan Chen is very talented as well as a clever man. He is just a too known name and every newbie of the business world will know this old player in their business world. Shabby world, but this was known to no one else except this Quan family. 

Even the Gu Family or Lin family is nothing in front of this Quan family. Realization struck her when she thought, 'I...I belong to the Quan family!?!' 

She failed to believe this. No... because why will her mother, the daughter of the Quan family, go and marry her father of the Su family? But on top of that, her mother was an illegitimate child. This came as a surprise for her. 

Never in her life that she can digest this information that her precious mother was born out of Woodlock. It was just too hard to accept. Closing the parcel, she locked the box and kept it on the inside passenger seat. Although she had thought that now, her mind and heart are ready to face everything but no, she is still weak and mentally, not ready.

One shock for her now is enough. Su Xi's grip on the steering wheel tightened as she again hit the road, back to home. But her heart and mind was a mess. Never her mother or father introduced their family to her. She knew no one! Growing up like this, her parents were her family and then Gu Yan. 

In the lift span of thirty-six years, she never gave it a thought about looking more deeper into her mother's death and her background. Instead, from the start, she believed that it was a suicide because her father had an extramarital affair.

But now many things are being revealed, and she has to join the dots at once.

'Why now? Mom, why did you hide this all from me!?' She was now regretting never asking anything from her when she was a child. But her childhood was now gone along with her mother. Now, she is an adult who is the mother of three children.

Tears were formed in her eyes and she drove her car very slowly. Maybe because her eyes were moist and she did not want any accident at this moment. After reaching her home, Su Xi did not even meet her children and instead decided to go directly to her room.

Not because she wanted to upset them but because she needs time to make up her mess head. Beating heart so loudly, she felt her death was sure if she did not calm herself down at this point.

Standing with the support of the door behind her, Su Xi slid down and sat on the ground with her head in the lap of her knees. Not even half of the truth is revealed and her heart started aching. 

'Mom... I thought I'm strong but it looks like I'm nothing..' Su Xi can't help but curse herself only.

Always, she tried to make her mother proud. After discovering that her mother was killed, she thought that by uncovering her killer, her mom will be more proud of her but she just took one step and her will was breaking up.

She remembered the look on her children when she came. they wanted to ask many things from her but she just showed them away.

"What shall I do mom… sobs.. i..sobs. can't." Her tears were continuously falling out of her eyes as she cried harder. These were the emotions that she tried to lock up in her mind but failed to do so.

After crying for God knows how many hours, Su Xi just sat on the ground with her moist and swollen eyes. She had to accept that, someone close to her must have killed her mother. There were many confusions but any one of them is the killer of her mom.

And the fact is, her mom was an illegitimate child of the Quan family.

It was also a surprise for her and to know the man beside her wad also that was bothering her.

Going near the bed, where the parcel lied, Su Xi again looked at the box which had so many documents and along with it was a recording tape.

Wiping away her tears with her hands, she looked at the documents once again.

Her grandmother's column was left untouched. It was empty as if someone wanted to hide her. Even her mother's name was something else and her grandfather's name was something else.

'He was her father and he didn't even let her have his surname!?!' In her eyes, there was something suspicious but then she moved on to the next document. 

It was the same picture she had given to her detective but to her surprise, there was another picture attached to it. 

In this picture, jer was not there but a black and white picture of her mother and that, flashing their smiles towards the camera.

And then her eyes caught something. It was a small paper attached to the picture where something was handwritten.
