Ariana had visited the Chadwick family multiple times before, but this was her first time on the third floor.

It appeared to be a more private area, as there were no other guests in sight.

The long corridor was lined with numerous pictures, each beautifully framed and labeled with names at the bottom.

Driven by curiosity, Ariana examined each photo. She paused when she came across a childhood picture of Mitchel.

In it, he appeared young and charming, dressed in a tiny suit, standing tall with a serious expression that suggested he had the makings of a scholar from an early age.

Ariana couldn't contain her amusement. It was surprising to see that Mitchel had been such a little bookworm as a child. Even in photos, he wore a serious expression.

Just then, her eyes landed on a group photo that was slightly faded and black and white, indicating its age.

The photo featured Rodney, who was young and full of life, exuding a vibrant energy even in such an old photo. Standing on his left, Catalina, who looked like she was only eighteen at the time, was dressed in a gown and radiating youthful innocence.

Beside Rodney, there was another young man, handsome with a bright smile. He bore a striking resemblance to Rodney.

Ariana felt familiar when she first laid eyes on the young man in the photo, though she couldn't pinpoint why. It was as though she had seen him before.

She paused, studying the photo with a curious look.

Judy noticed and explained, “This is Amiri, Rodney's son. Over twenty years ago, he and his family were attacked by their enemies. He, his wife, and their child were all killed."

As Judy finished speaking, she sighed deeply, and Ariana felt a pang of sadness.

It was clear that the Chadwick family, wealthy and full of enemies, often found their children in danger.

Ariana nodded in understanding and followed Judy.

They reached the dressing room, where Judy assured Ariana, “The clothes in there are all new. They ought to fit you."

Ariana nodded and headed inside to choose clothes.

Inside the dressing room, there were plenty of clothes to choose from.

After some time, Ariana picked out a simple yet elegant knee-length blue dress.

She put on the dress, but then she realized her hair was caught in the zipper at the back as she changed.
