Chapter 1347

At this point, Yates had regained his composure and picked up the report, handing it back to Peterson,
“Take this report and bring Eleanor back home. Once she is back, change her name to Eleanor Sharp.
And my daughter, Vanya, have her ashes brought back from the Pine family.”
Having finished his instructions, Yates gave further orders to Peterson, “I just found out that Emilia, was
buried in the Hooper family. Bring her ashes back as well, and change her name.”
Their children of the Sharp family must return to the Sharp surname, and must return to their ancestral
hall, to be listed on the Sharp family tree.
Peterson, who had received the report, glanced at it and then at Yates, “Grandpa, after the way we
treated Bernard, Eleanor won’t be willing to come back
with me.”
Yates raised his hand, loosened the tie on his white shirt, relaxed his body, and leaned back into the
leather executive chair, “Don’t tell Eleanor about Ace.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot telling Eleanor was the right decision. Otherwise, if she knew about them operating on Bernard’s
skull, how could she willingly return to the Sharp family?
Yates had just found his lost bloodline, so he wouldn’t let that happen. Peterson understood this and
agreed, “What about Bernard then?”
Bernard was Eleanor’s husband and the leader of the Siren Organization. This was both a family
relationship and an enemy. Should they act or not?
A hint of hesitation flashed across Yates’ eyes, but it was fleeting, and he quickly made a decisive
decision, “Don’t tell Bernard about Eleanor being alive, and have Sheldon keep an eye on him, don’t let
him get out.”
Peterson was stunned. Not telling Bernard about Eleanor, does this mean they won’t let him out?
As Peterson speculated, Yates spoke again, “Have the doctors treat Bernard, but never let him leave
Ace.”
Bernard was not only Eleanor’s husband but also the leader of the Siren Organization. Not killing him,
but keeping him alive, was out of consideration for
Eleanor.
By confining Bernard, the secrets of Area Opaca would never go public.
“Also, keep Sophie Ratliff alive, don’t kill her.”
Bernard was still willing to live, because Sophie had not been killed yet.
As long as this hatred exists, he will keep living. And as long as he lives, Yates would have the chance
to pry information about the people behind the Siren Organization from his mouth.
Peterson thought Yates’ decision was somewhat cruel.
“Grandpa, Eleanor is pregnant and went to Ace to find Bernard, indicating that she loves him a lot. Isn’t
it too cruel to separate them like this?”
Yates’ eyes darkened, “I’ve seen the video. Bernard has already divorced Eleanor. Eleanor said she
doesn’t want to see him even in death. Let them be.”
Yates was always stubborn, only believing in what he thought was right, never considering things from
other people’s perspectives. Peterson couldn’t persuade him, nor did he dare to.
“Grandpa, I’ll go and take care of things now.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust as Peterson was about to leave, Yates stopped him, “Call Sheldon over here. I need to ask him
how Vanya ended up with them.”
Was it Pauline who sent her to the Pine family? Or did the maid want to keep the money left by
Pauline, and didn’t want to take care of Pauline’s child, so she sent her to the Pine family?
With the death of the maid, these questions had been buried. Plus, the maid had no descendants,
making it difficult to find leads. The only option was to consult Sheldon again.
When he first learned about Vanya, Yates had asked Sheldon about her, but he always claimed
ignorance.
Yates guessed that Sheldon probably didn’t want to reveal family secrets, which was why he was
evading the issue.
At the time, Yates wasn’t sure if Vanya was his daughter, so he didn’t press the issue. This time, he
wanted to get to the bottom of things.
“Yes.”
After Peterson left, the icy expression on Yates’ face faded, revealing a lonely old man. He slowly took
out a picture of Pauline, staring at the captivating woman in it, his eyes welling up with tears.
“Pauline, I lost. I lost to your relentless ruthlessness.” He mumbled under his breath.
