His mother died early, his father then married a stepmother, and the stepmother gave birth to a child.
His Little Brother with the sa father but different mother—since the Little Brother was born, all of his father’s attention gradually shifted onto the Little Brother.
Edward Benson had always been in the army, with no ti to bother about any of this.
His affair with Isla Stanley gradually couldn’t be hidden anymore; everyone in the Thompson Family knew of Isla Stanley’s existence, and his stepmother grew restless.
She racked her brains trying to break them up, bluntly saying he had to marry a girl who was well-matched in terms of social class and family background; Isla Stanley’s identity was lowly and she didn’t deserve him.
Edward Benson had never paid her any mind, however, the stepmother kept shoving woman after woman at his side; as it happened more and more often, Isla Stanley began to suspect sothing.
She was already self‑conscious about her own background, and the stepmother’s tactics were undoubtedly provoking Isla Stanley.
This kind of situation dragged on for two years, until one day, General Thompson personally stepped in and looked for Edward Benson.
He told him to temporarily give up Isla Stanley, because the young Lady from rich family of a cabinet mber house had a crush on him, and had recently gone crazy, threatening to go after Isla Stanley.
General Thompson told him to think it over; after this period blew over, and the girl was sent to go abroad, it wouldn’t be too late to get back together with Isla Stanley.
Edward Benson was the first to disagree; asking him to break up with Isla Stanley was impossible.
General Thompson had no choice but to beg him: if they couldn’t really break up, then put on a show for that girl to see.
The benefit would be that General Thompson would acknowledge Isla Stanley as this daughter-in-law.
Edward Benson knew Isla Stanley was self‑conscious, and he wanted all the more to marry her and return ho early; if he could get General Thompson’s recognition, it would undoubtedly be the greatest comfort for her.
Thinking of this, Edward Benson agreed.
After he told Isla Stanley the whole affair from start to finish, Isla Stanley agreed as well; the two of them arranged to et at a coffee shop, with that girl sitting right behind them.
Edward Benson followed the lines he and Isla Stanley had agreed on in advance, and recited them word for word.
For the sake of later happiness, Isla Stanley also put on a hard‑selling performance, tears falling like rain as she begged bitterly.
Edward Benson received a telephone about an urgent mission; he had to imdiately return to the troop, so he left the cafe.
He never imagined that right after he left, that girl ca to sit opposite Isla Stanley and threw several photos in her face.
She told her that she and Edward Benson had been together for a long ti already, and that breakup scene just now hadn’t been an act at all, but a real breakup.
Staring at the bed photos of Edward Benson and the girl, Isla Stanley was badly hit; she refused to believe it and started calling Edward Benson.
However, she could no longer get in touch with Edward Benson.
The girl arrogantly shoved the engagent invitation into her hands again, telling her that she and Edward Benson were about to get engaged, and hoping she could show up to offer her blessing.
Isla Stanley left the cafe like a lost soul, only to be brutally kidnapped and taken overseas.
She was tied up and thrown into a car that had been set on fire, and man and car together rushed toward the sea.
When Edward Benson returned from the mission, he received the ssage and rushed overseas; the wrecked vehicle had already been salvaged, but the person was gone.
Living, he wanted to see the person; dead, he wanted to see the corpse. Without seeing Isla Stanley’s body, Edward Benson refused to believe she had truly left the world.
During that length of ti, he was like a madman; after uncovering the truth, he led troops through the night to break into the cabinet mber house official residence, and shot the official’s daughter in the dream on the bed while she slept.
As for those photos, they were even more the result of his stepmother working from the inside and outside together—she had drugged his water with dicine, and after he passed out, let that girl take photos on his bed.
He returned to the official residence to go after his stepmother, but was stopped by his father.
