?Chapter 230:


    It was then that Marissa realized she hadn’t yet disclosed her true identity to Landen. Though she hadn’t intended to reveal it, circumstances forced her hand. With her identity as ck Snake now unmasked and the sudden appearance of two children, concealing the truth from Landen was no longer viable. It would onlyplicate things further. However, she knew discussing it in front of the kids was out of the question


    Once the children were asleep after their meal, Marissa turned to Landen with a serious expression. “My name is actually Marissa Nash, and I’m Tiffany’s twin sister,” she confessed. Landen lookedpletely taken aback. He gazed at Marissa intently before slowly asking, “Weren’t you supposed to have died as a baby? Are you actually alive?”


    Marissa saw his astonishment and couldn’t resist a yful jab. “I’m dead. I’ve been dead for a while. You’re basically talking to a ghost right now!” Landen burst intoughter. “That exins so much. I was puzzled by how much Tiffany had changed. So, you’re not Tiffany. That clears up a lot of the weirdness.” He rubbed his nose sheepishly and inquired, “So, boss, where did you grow up? And how did you find your way back to the Nash family?”


    “It’s quite a long story. I’ll fill you inter,” Marissa responded, dying the story for another time

    “Alright,” Landen nodded. “You were lost at birth, yet after all the twists and turns, you ended up bing my boss. It must be fate.”


    Landen’s eyes suddenly widened. “Wait, if you’re not Tiffany, where is she?” Marissa responded, “Tiffany fled from her wedding. Silver Fox discovered she hade to the Sunrise recently, so I came here to find her. But by the time I arrived, she had already left.”


    Landen scratched his head in concern. “Where could she have gone? I’m really worried about her.”


    Marissa pressed her lips together and remained silent. She was concerned for Tiffany too but knew that worrying wouldn’t solve anything. Looking over at the two children asleep on the sofa, Landen muttered, “Are these kids really Tiffany’s? How could that be? Who is the father?”


    Marissa examined the children thoughtfully. “Given their ages, they must have been born when Tiffany was eighteen. Was there anything unusual about that year?”


    Landen remembered something. “When Tiffany was eighteen, her first engagement was canceled. It was a huge scandal. Embarrassed, Sansa sent her away to the countryside, iming she needed to reflect on herself there for a few months. But… No, that’s impossible!” He shook his head and continued, “Even though Tiffany spent a few months in the countryside, it’s highly unlikely she had children with anyone there. She was closely watched the entire time. Any pregnancy would not have gone unnoticed by our family. And during that time, I visited her several times. She was definitely not pregnant, nor did she ever mention expecting a child.”


    Marissa then remembered something from Tiffany’s diaries, which detailed her time in the countryside. Tiffany hadn’t written anything about being pregnant or having children. Considering Tiffany’s tendency to document every detail of her life, if she had met a man and be pregnant, it would have certainly made it into her diaries. After a moment of contemtion, Marissa asked, “Was there any other time when Tiffany was not in Blebert?”


    “No,” Landen replied with conviction. “Tiffany was always under Sansa’s watchful eye. Her only time away was those months in the countryside.”


    Marissa’s frown deepened. ording to Landen’s statement, it seemed impossible for Tiffany to have had an opportunity to get pregnant. So how could there be a connection between Tiffany and these two children? As they mulled this over, Connor, who had been quiet up to now, finally spoke. “Have you thought about another possibility?”
