Chapter 340 

Lizetta had always thought Quentin was an only child. For years, no one mentioned anything about Quenti 

Il Quentin had a sister, where had Stelle been all these years? 

“Quentin an only child? Far from it. He has a sister, Stella. And you know, Stella and Remington the same day, in the same hospital. 

1 sister 

were meant to be. They 

hey were born on 

Back then, the Wests and the Dashiells were equally influential. Barbara and your mother–in–law, Hanna, were like sisters. They even promised Remington and Stella to each other when they were just babies.” 

Lizetta’s nails dug deeper into her palms. 

Promised to each other as babies, huh? 

Bom on the same day sounds incredibly romantic. 

“Remington never celebrates his birthday because of Stella?” Lizetta asked, her voice dry. 

Remington never celebrated his birthday. Even his eighteenth, which was supposed to be a big deal, was celebrated a day early. 

His actual binhday always passed in silence in the Dashiell household. 

That’s why, seeing Remington having a candlelit dinner with Evelina on his birthday made Lizetta think they were an item. 

She remembered making Remington a birthday cake on his twentieth. She was so excited, lighting the candles and sneaking into his room at midnight. 

She wanted to surprise him, but he wasn’t pleased at all. 

He looked at her as if the cake was poisoned, telling her to take it away and not to bother with such meaningless gestures again. After that, Lizetta would just prepare a thoughtful gift and, like everyone else, give it to him the day before his actual birthday. 

She used to think Remington just didn’t like the fuss or cake. 

But the heir to the Dashiell fortune, even if he disliked such things, would still partake in the celebration unless there was a reason. “Of course, it’s because of Stella. They weren’t just promised to each other, they grew up together From the age of one to twelve, they celebrated every birthday together” 

Evelina seemed to delight in Lizetta’s distress, her smile 

filled with satisfaction. 

Lizetta must be heartbroken. 

Evelina could hardly bear to watch 

“What happened then? Where did Stella go?” 

Lizetta bit her lip, pressing for more. 

Clearly, Remington stopped celebrating his birthdays after Stella disappeared when he was twelve. 

“It’s simple. When they were twelve, Remington and Stella were kidnapped. Remington managed to escape, but Stella vanished. Without his childhood love, Mr. Dashiell lost all interest in celebrating his birthday. With Stella missing, presumed dead, Barbara was heartbroken, crying until she went blind. Since then, the Wests and the Dashiells forbade anyone from mentioning Stella, to spare Barbara the pain. But despite the silence, Remington and the Wests never stopped searching for her. The man who kidnapped them was rumored to be in a mercenary group in Celestia. Our noble Mr. Dashiell even became a mercenary himself. Count the scars on Remington’s body, and you’ll know how many times he’s risked his life for that woman! Now that he’s found her, my poor sister, do you think there’s still room for you in the Dashiell family, by Remington’s side?” 

Lizetta’s breath hitched with pain. No wonder Remington never spoke of his scars or how he got them. 

After all, he only came back to her because she was pregnant. 

Now, the woman he had been searching for, longing for had returned. His commitment to Lizetta was probably just out of responsibility 

Just then, Lizetta’s phone on the table started ringing. 

She looked down to see “Honey” flashing on the screen
