Chapter 175

Edwin's surprise only lasted for a few seconds, then he calmly asked, "Mrs. Brenna, you have quite the memory, remembering that detail so clearly after all these years."

Brenna sighed deeply and said, "I was friends with your mom, and she got hurt so bad trying to protect the baby she was carrying. Its a memory etched deep in my heart. Your sister was different from other babies right from the start-so pretty and chubby, with those big eyes just like your mom's. And that birthmark, shaped like a petal, had me in tears. I thought it must be your mom leaving her favorite. thing with your sister"

Edwin stepped out of the doctor's office, his mind swirling with Brenna's words. Brenna had been his mother's dearest friend and the doctor who had taken care of his mother during her pregnancy. Her words rang with truth.

His sister had a petal-shaped birthmark on her back. That was the legacy his mother had left for his sister. She must have been so worried about her, and she wanted that birthmark to be a guardian, as if she were always by her side.

However, the sister he had watched over since childhood bore no such mark on her back.

Edwin felt a visceral pain, convulsing from the inside out. He was now certain-Heidi was not his mother's child.

But then, whose child was Heidi? And where had his real sister gone?

Was his mother's car accident really an act of sabotage as his grandfather had suggested?

He took several deep drags. The heavy smoke made him cough violently, his eyes reddening intensely.

It took a while before he regained his composure. He had to uncover the truth-who had taken his sister?

Pulling out his phone, he dialed Uncle James.

Without waiting for a reply, he blurted out, "Uncle, did my mom have any birthmarks?"

James sounded surprised and after a few seconds replied, "She had a petal birthmark on her waist. Why do you ask all of a sudden?" Edwin's back hit the wall with a thud. The same cherry blossom birthmark- it couldn't be a coincidence. He gripped the phone tightly. his long fingers turning pale.

"Uncle, I think I'll come visit grandma and grandpa in a few days. I've been missing them," he said.

James laughed heartily. "Your grandparents will be thrilled to hear that. Bring Heidi along. They've been missing her too."

ing this, a chill flashed in Edwin's eyes. Brenna had said his mother passed away right after his sister was born. Hearing

Everyone was immersed in grief. And his sister had been brought home by the family's nanny.

His sister hadn't even been taken to the nursery before being taken home, so there was no chance of a mix-up.

His sister had been deliberately swapped.

Considering this, his mother's car accident definitely seemed suspicious. The goal must have been to switch the babies. With these thoughts, Edwin's usually gentle gaze grew steely. His fists clenched tightly.

Half an hour later, he returned to Heidi's room.

Seeing his troubled expression, Heidi immediately asked, "Edwin, what's wrong? Is it my condition? Is it serious?" Chapter 176
