Chapter 382

She only knew Silas was a child taken in by Eamon.

Calliope shook her head and looked at Eamon.

Eamon pondered, recalling the past. "Silas cinto the picture when the Baker family was on the brink of

bankruptcy. At that time, his ailing mother approached me, pleading for help. If | took Silas in, she would give me

all her money to save the Baker family."

"Silas's mother fell for the wrong man. He was quite heartless, and after using her, he discarded her like an old

shoe. She ctobecause, despite the Baker family's struggles, | was the only one willing to help her, the

only one who could protect Silas."

"His father wanted him gone. When Silas was little, his father was relentless in hunting him down, thinking he

shouldn't exist."

Eamon sighed deeply. "Silas had a tough start. His mother was somewhat capable, but after having him, she had

cancer. Not long after entrusting Silas to me, she passed away."

"Later, | used the money she left to revive the Baker Group. As twent on, Silas grew up. He was quite

talented, so | started involving him in the Baker Group."

"Without him and his mother, the Baker family would have gone under long ago. So | entrusted the company to

him. | believe the Baker Group is largely his."

"But, as you know, Silas isn't my only one. He has three brothers. They don't understand why | handed the Baker

Group to Silas, and they've opposed him all these years."

Eamon sighed again. He was old and couldn't offer much help, so Silas handled everything.

Fortunately, Silas was strong

enough to command respect

fear from the others. He managed the company well and secured his position firmly.

"And what about his father?" Calliope couldn't help but frown. It was the first tshe'd heard the story, and it

seemed Silas had been unwanted from the start. His mother loved him, but his father wanted him dead.

"Still around, but he's always been abroad," Eamon replied. "He knows Silas grew

up to be remarkable, but he still tries to undermine him."

"But why?" Calliope couldn't understand. Even if he didn't love Silas's mother, as his biological father, why treat

Silas this way? Why wish for his demise?

"To him, Silas was an accident. His biological father didn't like unexpected surprises. Plus, he has another son."

Eamon explained, "Unless that son was gone or useless to him, he would never favor Silas."

Calliope furrowed her brows, still not grasping it. Silas never bothered him. So why all this hostility?

"Silas doesn't like his father either,"

Eamon added with a frown.

"Perhaps there's a sense of

unresolved resentment. Since Silas grew up, he's often clashed with his

biological father, escalating tensions between them. Silas has had it tough."

Calliope nodded, feeling a pang of sympathy for Silas.

Losing his mother at a young age, coming into a foreign environment, and having

a father who wished to erase his existence -it must have been hard for him.
