Chương 75: words of past

Rose's hands trembled, the memory flooding back with startling clarity as she heard Lucian's words about cutting ties with the Kane family. Her heart clenched at the thought, her mind spiraling back to her past life. She vividly remembered the shock she felt when the family lawyer, Lethan Trunks, had handed her those documents, cold and final. Lucian had signed away his name, his right to be recognized as a Kane, his inheritance, everything. He had severed himself from the family in both name and spirit.

At the time, she hadn't known what to feel. She'd sat there, her hands holding that stack of paperwork, almost numb. There was an odd emptiness, a confusion within her. Part of her had whispered that she'd finally "won," that the competition between them had ended with her on top, as the sole Kane heir. But a deeper part of her a quiet, neglected part felt strangely hollow. Something within her had died with that document, though she didn't know what.
