Keira stood in the hallway outside old Mr. Sims' office, her eyes taking in the dramatic changes since her last visit. What was once an open, accessible area had now been transformed into a sealed-off zone, with barriers restricting entry to unauthorized personnel. The very atmosphere felt heavier, as if the walls themselves were holding their breath.
Beside her, Holly's footsteps faltered, each step unsteady and uncertain. Her anxiety was palpable, radiating from her trembling form like heat from a fire. When they finally reached the door to old Mr. Sims' office, Holly froze, her hand hovering in the air, unable to push it open. But Keira, understanding that some doors must be opened regardless of what lies behind them, reached out and pushed the door wide.
Inside, they found an elderly man standing by the window.
His silver hair was full and thick for his age, and his wrinkled face still carried those faint traces of the commanding authority he had once wielded with such confidence. He was watering the plants, his back turned to them, his movements slow and deliberate. Without looking at them, he spoke, his voice carrying the weight of a man who had long accepted his fate.
"I've already admitted my crimes. There's no need to come and ask again."
Holly began to tremble violently.
Everyone had told her old Mr. Sims confessed. Friends, family, officials—they all said the same thing. But she had refused to believe it. She couldn't. Not him. Not the man who had taught her everything she knew about honor and duty. Yet hearing those words from her grandfather's own lips made the world beneath her feet crumble into dust.
She staggered forward, her voice breaking like glass. "Grandpa... it's not like that."
At the word "Grandpa," old Mr. Sims jolted.
He turned slowly, his eyes widening in surprise when he saw her. A gentle, almost sad smile spread across his weathered face. "Holly, you're here."
Holly couldn't understand how he could be so calm. She rushed forward and grabbed his hand desperately. "Grandpa, tell me it's not true! What you just said—please tell me it's a lie!"
Old Mr. Sims sighed deeply, the sound carrying decades of regret.
He looked at her for a long moment, his eyes filled with sorrow. "I'm sorry, Holly. I've brought shame upon you."
Her eyes reddened instantly, tears threatening to spill. She stared at his wrinkled hands, the same hands that had held hers when she was just a child. "It's not true, Grandpa! You're just teasing me, right? You've always taught me to love my country, to put the nation's interests above everything else! How could you do something like this?"
Tears filled Holly's eyes. "Grandpa, please say something! Tell me none of this is real!"
The old man sighed once more, the sound heavy and exhausted. "Holly, I was foolish. I had never seen so much money in my life. I thought a small mistake wouldn't cause any real trouble..."
"NO!" Holly shook her head frantically, refusing to accept the words spilling from his lips. "I don't believe you! There must be some misunderstanding! The person you despised the most in this world was Barry Brandt!"
Old Mr. Sims lowered his gaze, unable to meet her eyes. "Do you remember thirteen years ago? When your grandmother was gravely ill?"
Holly froze, the mention of her grandmother striking her like a physical blow.
He continued, his voice becoming softer, more fragile. "Back then, only Country M had the advanced medical capabilities to save her. But given our situation, we had no money. The healthcare providers there refused treatment unless we paid a large sum. They asked me for a hundred million dollars. You know our family assets were, at most, a few tens of millions. That was the first time in my life I felt completely helpless because I lacked money."
He paused, his voice cracking. "When your grandmother passed away, I suddenly felt a desperate need for money. What if the same thing happened to your father next? Or to you after that? What would we do?"
He lowered his head further. "Without money, there is no sense of security in this world. That was the beginning of my troubles."
Then he added, his voice barely above a whisper, "Once someone tells a lie, they need countless lies to cover it up. When they do something wrong, they need countless wrongs to hide it. I found myself in deep trouble—that's why I didn't dare spend the money or even touch it. I just let it sit there, accumulating dust and guilt."
A bitter smile twisted his lips. "Billions in US dollars. I often think it could have saved your grandmother's life hundreds of times over..." His voice broke. "Holly, I was wrong. So terribly, unforgivably wrong."
Holly stared at him in utter disbelief. "Grandpa... why didn't you say anything earlier? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep this from me?"
She began crying uncontrollably. "Grandpa, you taught me from a young age that even so, we must never admit defeat! How could you give in to money? How could you, Grandpa!"
Old Mr. Sims reached out and patted her shoulder, his touch gentle but trembling. "Holly, I've dragged you and your father into this, haven't I?"
She lowered her head, her shoulders shaking. "My dad has been dismissed. He's under house arrest now. I'll also be investigated. Grandpa, how could you make such a terrible mistake!"
Old Mr. Sims lowered his eyes. "I have nothing else to say. I'm prepared for whatever punishment comes from above. Holly, you are innocent in all of this. I'm sorry to you and your father..."
The guilt in his eyes was painfully evident, so deep it seemed to consume him from within.
Then Holly suddenly remembered something, her eyes widening. "So... is that why you've been refusing to hand over the Special Division to Uncle Dawson all these years? Because only the person in control of the Special Division has access to so many resources?"
Old Mr. Sims gave a rueful, hollow smile. "Exactly."
Holly staggered backward as if she had been struck. She stared at her grandfather, the man she had admired and loved her entire life, as if seeing him for the first time. "How could you do this? Do you realize how much you've hurt Uncle Dawson?!"
Overwhelmed by the terrible revelations, she turned and ran out of the room, her sobs echoing down the hallway.
After she left, silence fell heavy in the office. Old Mr. Sims turned to face Keira, his expression unreadable. "You must be the Senior Sister, right?"
Keira was surprised he recognized her, momentarily taken aback.
Old Mr. Sims smiled faintly. "The only ones who can freely enter here besides Brian Dawson is the Senior Sister. I've heard about you from Holly."
Keira pursed her lips respectfully. "Greetings, Mr. Sims."
She bowed to him.
Old Mr. Sims said softly, "Please look after Holly in the future. I know that because of me, her entire life will be overshadowed by this. I hope you can make her life a little less bitter."
Keira looked at him for a long moment. Then she sighed deeply. "Mr. Sims... drop the act. Holly isn't here anymore."

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
Oh, what a heartbreaking and emotionally charged chapter! This was absolutely devastating to read. Watching Holly's world shatter piece by piece as her grandfather's truth unfolded was gut-wrenching. The old man's confession revealed such tragic complexity—a man who started down a dark path not out of greed, but out of fear and desperation after losing his wife. Yet no matter how sympathetic his motives were, the damage he caused to his family, especially to his daughter Holly and Uncle Dawson, is unforgivable. Keira's final line—"Drop the act"—was chilling. It suggests she sees through everything, adding another layer of mystery to this already complicated web of lies and betrayal. Absolutely gripping storytelling!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Rating: 4.9 / 5 Stars**
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
I believe Keira's sharp insight will lead her to uncover something deeper beneath old Mr. Sims' confession. There might be more players involved in this scheme—perhaps someone forced his hand or manipulated him. Meanwhile, Holly's raw pain might drive her to confront Uncle Dawson or dig into the dark corners of this conspiracy. Something tells me the full truth hasn't been revealed yet, and Keira is about to unravel secrets that go far beyond what anyone expects!
