As Fitz drove back to the Thorne’s manor, and Adrian Peters set off for the airport, the Thorne’s manor had become a sea of joy.
Under the guidance of their father, the brothers and sisters of the Thorne family had been raised to be exceptionally tight knit since they were young. In fact, although brothers and sisters are close relatives, in the final analysis, in most families with children, it is difficult for the relationship between children to remain tight knit. Especially once the children have grown-up and have their own respective families. Once this happens, the sibling bond naturally becomes less important than the nuclear family bond each shares with their own wife and children.
Therefore, in real life and in the TV news, it is common to see brothers and sisters turn their backs on one another over fights for family property, or quarrel and even fight because of parental issues. This is not only true of the poor, but even more so for the rich.
However, the brothers and sisters of the Thorne family have remained exceptionally close. Deana had an accident, and her brothers and sisters set aside everything in their own lives, regardless of all costs, just to find her and her daughter. Now that their sibling had finally returned safely, these brothers and sisters were naturally extremely happy!
The eldest sister of the Thorne family had already asked the chef to cook a lavish meal as they waited for her sister and niece’s arrival so that the family could celebrate their safe return. But when they arrived, she couldn’t care less about the dinner prepared by the chef. She hugged her sister and burst into happy tears.
The family surrounded the mother and the daughter and asked them endless questions. The questions were also very focused. They wanted to know who took them away after the accident in the tunnel. Where did they go? And they must have been severely injured in the car accident, so who on earth provided the medical attention needed to heal these injuries?
Deana faced the questions from her family and lied against her will, “Actually, Zara and I still don’t know who saved us. After the car accident, we were unconscious. When we awoke, we were already lying in a ward, and we couldn’t see anything related to the name of the hospital or the ward. The doctors who came to treat us also wore masks and we couldn’t identify them.”
