    <b>Chapter </b><b>205 </b>


    After receiving the message, Caitlin headed straight to the private room to find Sebastian


    “Sebastian.


    When she pushed open the door, Caitlin froze for a moment. There were a few other handsome men in the room.


    She recognized them as some of Sebastian’s good friends.


    The sudden appearance of Caitlin took the men by surprise,


    Especially Yates, who jumped up in shock when he saw her.


    “Caitlin,e in!”


    Sebastian quickly closed the door behind her and pulled her inside. “Everyone wanted to meet <b>you</b>, so letn


    aduce: you properly”


    “No need for introductions, I know them all,” Caitlin replied, looking at the men in


    men in the room.


    She turned to Benjamin. “The young master of the Jones family, owner of Club No.8, New York’s number one yboy”


    Benjamin couldn’t help butugh. “Are youplimenting me?”


    Caitlin then turned to Nn. “Nn, the famous jewelry tycoon,es from an illustrious family, though rumors say you have a hidden illness and are somewhat of a sickly nobleman.”


    Nn smiled, “Thanks for thettery”


    Then, it <b>was </b>Yates” turn.”


    Yates was i


    s incredibly eager. “What about me? What about me?”


    Afraid of being ignored, Yates raised his hand, hoping to be called on.


    Caitlin looked at him and gave her assessment. “The youngest dual–<b>award</b>–winning actor, Yates. His acting skills are impable, but he always acts like a diva, using body doubles too often. His taste, though, needs some work.”


    “Wow!” Yates realized that Caitlin’s words were sharp. The CEO of hispany wouldn’t dare speak to him this way. Everyone always catered to him, but Caitlin dared to point out his ws!


    Instead of getting angry, he was <b>amused</b>. “You’re right, you’re right. I’ll work on improving myself”


    Yates‘ humble attitude <b>was </b>something only he would show in front of <b>Caitlin </b>


    Benjamin and Nn exchanged nces, thinking, “What a <b>shameless </b>guy!”


    “Come on<b>, </b>Caitlin, sit <b>down</b>!” The men <b>eagerly </b>invited her to join the meal..


    Sebastian pulled out a <b>chair </b>for <b>Caitlin</b>, and <b>as </b><b>she </b>sat down, he casually took the seat next to her. His arm naturally rested on <b>the </b>back of her chair, subtle deration of possession.


    “The message you sent earlier. what did it mean? Did you see her?” Caldin turned to him and lowered her voic


    “I saw her, Sebastian whispered in her ear


    “Where did you see hart!

    “Right here<b>, </b>in the restaurant.”


    Caitlin looked at him in surprise, but Sebastian continued, “Don’t worry. I already have a n. I just need you to cooperate”


    “Okay, tell me what to do.”


    The two of them quietly discussed their daughter’s situation, while the men around them left like they were having a meal full of “dog food“-that is witnessing another couple’s sweetness.


    Once they finished their conversation, Caitlin stood up to leave. “Enjoy your meal, everyone. I’ll head out now!”


    Yates, who hadn’t had the chance to speak much with <b>Caitlin</b>, was surprised she was leaving already. “You’re leaving now? Today?”


    “Let it go, Yates. I’ll see youter, Caitlin, I’ll walk you out!” Sebastian <b>said</b>, walking with her to the door and watching her head toward Zeke


    He didn’t follow her because <b>he </b>knew he would <b>have </b>another chance to see Caitlin tomorrow.


    As for Zeke, he didn’t consider him a real opponent.


    That night.


    Zeke dropped Caitlin off at DanCa Estate. As Caitlin got out of the car, she asked, “Brother<b>, </b>how long are you staying in the US this time?”


    “it depends. I’ll stay un


    until I finish what I need to do,” Zeke replied.


    Of course, Zeke “business” was just an excuse. He came to the <b>US </b>specifically for Caitlin.


    “Alright then, take care and get some rest!” <b>Caitlin </b>said, bidding him <b>farewell </b><b>as </b>she entered the estate, showing no signs of inviting him to stay.


    Zeke watched her walk away, his thoughts deep. He leaned against the car door and smoked <b>three </b>cigarettes before finally leaving til reluctant to pa


    After <b>Caitlin </b>returned to the <b>vi</b>, she went to check on the kids before taking a shower and heading to her room. She then began reading her mother’s old journal.


    After finishing <b>the </b>entire journal, Caitlin discovered something very important.


    Her grandmother’s background was quite extraordinary<b>. </b>


    Her grandmother was not from the US; she came from Departure City in V Country.


    It turned out that Caitlin’s grandmother was a descendant of Yun’s Fragrance & Dye Studiof


    The story went back over sixty years, <b>Caitlin’s </b>grandmother, originally named Eleanor, hade from Departure City to the US, concealing her identity. Sheter married Caitlin’s grandfather, Walter Thompson, and had Caitlin’s mother, Kelly.


    It was during Kelly’s investigation into her mother Eleanor’s true background that she learned of Eleanor’s origins and the reason she hade to the US. It was all rted to the secret book of <b>Yun’s </b>Fragrance & Dye Studio, “Yun’s Aromatic Codex“.


    Caitlin opened the damaged first half of the “Yun’s Aromatic Codex“, finding details <b>on </b>how to dye fabrics and blend fragrances. Unfortunately, only the first half of the codex remained, and the second half had been lost.


    Caitlin’s mother had written in her journal that her grandmother’s dying wish was to find the second half of the “Yun’s Arhuab Fragrance & Dye Studio.


    Why had Caitlin’s grandmothere to the US to search for the <b>codes</b>? Was the other half of the codes in the US:.


    Why had her grandchother left Departure City Instead of shaying there<b>!. </b>


    35<b>%</b>2


    Caitlin had Yosef investigate, and it turned out that The Yuncey Family, from Departure City, was an ancient family with a long history. If Caitlin’s grandmother was a member of the Yuncey family, why hadn’t she stayed in Departure City? Why had she hidden herself and moved to the US?


    These were the very questions that had haunted her mother Kelly throughout her life!


    Her mother hadn’t had the time to resolve them, but now it was Caitlin’s tum.


    Caitlin thought back to her grandfather Walter’s death and her mother Kelly’s experiences. Could it be that all of these were tied to her grandmother’s


    mysterious past?


    Was “Yun’s Aromatic Codex” the cause of the downfall of The Jonathan Family?


    Caitlin couldn’t find any further answers in her mother’s journal. However, she did notice a mysterious figure referred to only as “Mr. Lin the entries. The way her mother spoke of Mr. L suggested a deep emotional connection. Could this “Mr. L be her biological father?


    Who could he be?


    Most of her mother’s journal focused on mundane life details, and Caitlin couldn’t find any more valuable <b>clue</b>., perhaps those questions were the same ones her mother had been trying to figure out<b>. </b>


    Though her mother couldn’t fulfill her grandmother’sst wish<b>, </b>Caitlin swore that as long as she was alive and able, she would make sure to fulfill it and uncover all the mysteries surrounding Yun’s Fragrance & Dye Studio!


    After a night’s rest, Caitlin arrived at the basketball game venue the next day, where she met up with Wendy.


    “Caitlin, I’m so happy you came to watch my brother’s game!”


    “Let’s talk inside, Caitlin replied


    Wendy was too early to celebrate, unaware that Caitlin had two goals in mind. One was to create was to look for her daughter


    The event <b>was </b>held in New


    an opportunity for Molly to meet Simon, and the other


    w York’srgest basketball stadium, and when Catlin and Wendy arrived, they found that Molly had already secured seats.


    “Caitlin, Wendy, over here!” Molly waved them


    After Caitlin sat down, she took out a colorful pinwheel from her <b>bag</b><b>, </b>


    Molly, seeing the windmill, asked with a smile, “Caitlin, what’s with the windmill? Did you get it for my nephew?


    “No, <b>you’ll </b>find out soon enough!” Caitlin replied, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she looked toward the entrance of the stadium.
