Years ago, Aunt Rong and Thea Lynch's parents had some disagreements, which isn't really a secret in the compound. Due to the relationship between the elders of both families, Aunt Rong had to keep up appearances. But in private, she really couldn't bring herself to like the Lynch family.
She knew early on that Ian Preston often abandoned work to take care of Thea Lynch, likely sensing Ian Preston's feelings for her. Aunt Rong has even thrown quite a fit, causing Ian Preston to not return home for a prolonged period, and eventually, the matter was dropped.
After all, being Ian Preston's mother, Silas Cheney couldn't say much.
It's surprising that after all these years, with Thea Lynch's parents already gone, Aunt Rong is still dwelling on past grievances.
On the other end of the phone, Ian Preston remained silent for a while. Silas Cheney sighed, realizing that the rumors circulating yesterday must have been true.
