Chapter 71

In Brenda's mind, she heard the name from childhood - Mason Panda.

He was her partner in secret adventures, cute and mischievous. But tragedy took him away, leaving her in a world without magic.

Suddenly, she recognized him sitting across from her in the cafe and was overwhelmed with emotion.

She couldn't believe he was real after all these years.

Memories flooded back as they locked eyes, and she reached out to touch him. He looked different now but his warm hazel eyes were still the same, pulling her back to a time of innocence.

Brenda's face suddenly shifted, and she exclaimed, "James, you're manipulating my feelings! You've delved into my past and now you're trying to act like someone from my past just to gain my trust, so you can hurt my family."

"I know your secrets, I investigated you. I know about Vivian and the pain in your past. You've been on a mission to harm my family," she said, sounding puzzled.
