His voice was rough with emotion as he revealed, "Your mother ctowhen you were just 7 years old, and she was already three months pregnant.
At that time, if I hadn't taken her in, she would have been left with no other option but to commit suicide.
I couldn't bear the thought of my old friend's child meeting such a fate.
As such, I arranged for her to enter into a contractual marriage with your father.
I thought this ordeal would soon be over, but I never expected the foreign forces to pursue her all the way to Cadilind.
Your father left the country, and your mother ultimately couldn't evade her fate.
Then, I took you in and was stricter with you.
Later on, I sent you abroad to protect you from the powerful forces at home.

He grasped his forehead and exclaimed, "No! I can't remember any of these! If my mother and I really escaped to Cadilind when I was just 7 years old, why can't I remember anything about it? And I remember very well that I was taken back to the Mitchell family later!" Franco shook his head and replied, "I don't know the details.
ALL I remember is that after your mother and you returned to Cadilind, there were many visitors coming to see you in the early years.
After your mother passed away, you struggled to remember your past.
I took you to see a doctor, but unfortunately, it didn't help you regain your memories.
After that, I made sure others didn't mention anything about your past in your presence.
" No! That couldn't be! Bryson struggled to recall his past, which caused him immense emotional pain.
This memory was erased like a drawing rubbed away by an eraser, leaving no trace behind.
He couldn't recall it at all! Based on the photo he had seen while abroad and Franco's confirmation, Bryson was convinced that it was the truth.
But despite this revelation, his memories remained a complete blank! "Tom" Bryson's forehead was etched with blue veins as he gritted out, "I saw a photo abroad of my mother and... Hannah's biological father, Wallace Compton.
Do you remember him?" Franco thought for a moment, then shook his head, replying, "It's been too long.
I can't recall who met your mother.
Is this connected to Miss Moore's biological father?" ALL the clues seemed to point to Wallace.
He was the only one who could unlock the truth.
"I'm not certain.
I'm just assuming," said Bryson.
"Your mother once confided in me, hoping I could keep your true identity hidden forever.
But she also instructedthat if I couldn't keep the secret any longer, I should reveal the truth to you.

The key resembled a fish tail, its bronze surface now weathered to a dark patina from years of aging. Read ve the latest chapter there! Bryson accepted the key and inquired, "What does it unlock?" "Your mother didn't reveal its purpose to me.
She simply entrusted it to my care.
As for where to use it, that's for you to discover," Franco replied.
With the key clutched in his hand, Bryson lapsed into a contemplative silence.
"You might not be my biological grandson, but my love and care for you are regenuine and true," Franco added; despite their subtle relationship. Bryson felt a wave of relief wash over him, glad to finally have answers to past misunderstandings.
He was ready to move on.
He suddenly smiled and said, "I consider you my true grandfather, and I wouldn't have stayed with the Mitchell family if I didn't feel that way.
