Charles disappeared suddenly.
After leaving the hospital, within just a few days, he had learned the shocking truth about his origins—and then uncovered yet another hidden secret.
The whirlwind of emotions left him physically and mentally drained.
That day, when Manfred revealed the final secret to Derrick, both August and Charles had overheard it all.
Janet was right beside Charles, watching as Derrick collapsed to the floor.
The two brothers instinctively held back—no one moved to help him. Instead, they stood at a distance, coldly watching the guilt and regret carve deep lines into Derrick's aged face, while their own expressions remained unreadable.
August would never forget the inhuman life he endured in Australia—years of pain, betrayal, and suffering.
To realize the man he had always hated was actually his biological father shook him to the core.
Silent and still, he followed Manfred away without a word, needing time to digest the cruel truth.
