Chapter 1685 Perhaps She Was Too Heartless

For the first time, Clark was resistant to the ancestors' teachings he had grown up believing in.

Was he not resentful?

How could he not be resentful?

Alison was the only child he had ever had in his life!

When Alison was born, he was very happy. He gave Alison everything he had for those three years and
even imagined hiring a tutor for his daughter when she was a little older. But it all ended that summer.

His daughter was lost.

At the time, Old Mrs. Close was going crazy. If it hadn't been for the faith that sustained her, she might
have been dead.

His wife and daughter suffered all their lives for the so-called ancestors' teachings of the Close family.

As a husband, as a father, what had he done for these two women in his life?

Clark was devastated, while Old Mrs. Close almost fainted from crying. Only Alison's eyes were red,
but she did not shed a single tear.

She had long since passed the age when she would need a mother's love and care.

What she had experienced all those years ago was like a nightmare that always haunted her at the
beginning.

She was afraid to sleep at night in the orphanage, and when she closed her eyes, all she could think of
was her foster father's ugly face and her foster mother's fierce look.



She was scared, she was upset, she was afraid to be with other children, and she was afraid that
people would know her secret. But the more she did this, the more the children bullied her.

She didn't dare to fight back and feared that, if she hurt someone, she would be thrown out by the
dean.

Where would she go if the dean kicked her out?

There was no place in the world that could be her home.

That was until Chad appeared.

Chad had gone to the orphanage to select a few children to be trained as spies.

At that time, Chad told them clearly that after he took them away, he could give them the best food and
clothes, but at the same time, they would have to do the hardest and most tiring things under the sky
and leave behind all their past.

From the day they left the orphanage, they no longer had their former identities, and they only had one
identity – they are spies.

They had to do whatever he needed them to do, they had to go to war to kill the enemy, and they could
not resist even if he needed them to marry into a rich family.

Many children didn't want this life, but Alison did.

She couldn't wait to leave her old identity behind and give herself a rebirth, to use her strength and the
rest of her life to make a life of her own.

So she became Tracy, taking the name of the daughter of the dean.



She didn't know if she was unlucky or not, but when everything was done, there was an earthquake
before she had time to leave with Chad. And the whole city was thrown into chaos.

At that moment, she thought that God was going to take her away, that perhaps she really didn't
deserve a new life. But at the critical moment, Chad saved her.

Ever since being rescued from the orphanage by Chad, Alison felt reborn.

She was free at all times, except when training was hard. Chad even cared for her and loved her like a
grandfather.

She still remembered when she joined the army at the age of eighteen, Chad personally cooked her a
table of delicious food and played with her all night. He accompanied her to play all those
entertainment places that she wanted to go to but was afraid to do so. And Chad accompanied her to
eat all the junk food that she wanted to eat but didn't have time to.

She remembered that tears welling up in Chad's eyes as she got into the truck to report to military.

At that moment, she cried and called him Grandpa while Chad waved his hand and said, "Girl, I'll wait
for you to come back."

Chad gave her all the affection that she was missing.

She was saved by Chad, her life was given to her by Chad. So Alison was devastated to learn that she
was a descendant of the Close family.

How could she be a descendant of the Close family?

But Chad looked so sad, making her understand that it was all true.



Especially after someone from the Close family was caught by Samuel, Chad went behind her back
and got someone to take that person's blood and do a paternity test with Alison, and then everything
came to light.

Alison felt ashamed of Chad, of her former uniform, and of those who had been good to her.

Chad, however, told her that the true Alison had died in that earthquake when she was eight years old,
and the person who survived the earthquake was Tracy, not Alison. If she felt that this mission was
difficult, she could have not gone at all.

But Alison knew that she had to come.

This was her roots!

Her parents were here!

Even if the Close family was to be exterminated, she would have to do it herself!

She had expected her to be calm and composed, but when she saw Old Mrs. Close crying and almost
fainting, Alison still felt intolerant and had mixed emotions in her eyes.

She could clearly feel Old Mrs. Close's grief, but she could not empathize with her.

Perhaps she was just too cold-blooded.

The people of the Close family were indeed frighteningly cold-blooded.

Alison just let her mother hold her and cry. It was only after she was hoarse and completely passed out
that she carried Old Mrs. Close back to the house.

As Alison passed by Ebby, she suddenly took hold of her arm.



Her eyes were also red, even with tears, but she said in a low voice, "Alison, you did that on purpose,
didn't you? You saw your mum behind me a long time ago but didn't say anything. You deliberately told
me everything to make her feel bad and make me blame myself, didn't you? What are you up to? How
can you scheme against your own family? Alison, you are also one of the Closes! You have the blood
of the Close family in you! What the hell are you doing?"

Ebby just stared at Alison, as if she wanted to find something in her face and demeanor. Unfortunately,
Alison was just as calm as ever.

She just looked at Ebby and said indifferently, "If you think I am up to no good, then that's it. Maybe I'm
lying to you when I say all this, and maybe I'm just telling stories."

Having said that, Alison broke away from Ebby's hand and hugged Old Mrs. Close as she went inside.
Then she saw that Clark's eyes were also red, as if he knew everything.

She looked at the door that she had gently pushed open a short while ago without saying anything, but
placed Old Mrs. Close next to Clark and said, "I'm going to my room."

"Alison, your mother has really missed you all these years. Did you see the bruises on her arms? That
was all cut out by herself. She hated herself for not protecting you. It hasn't been easy for you all these
years, and it hasn't been easy for your mother and me either. So, don't hate us, okay? I'll give you
anything you want, even my life. All I ask is that you don't hate us! Alison, every word you say is a
death sentence to your mother and me, you know? No parent in this world would bear the thought of
their daughter going through this pain. But we can't go back to the past, and your mother and I couldn't
be part of your pain from the beginning. So will you give us a chance to redeem
ourselves?"

Her eyes were also red, even with tears, but she said in a low voice, "Alison, you did that on purpose,
didn't you? You saw your mum behind me a long time ago but didn't say anything. You deliberately told
me everything to make her feel bad and make me blame myself, didn't you? What are you up to? How
can you scheme against your own family? Alison, you are also one of the Closes! You have the blood
of the Close family in you! What the hell are you doing?"
