When Seraphina was going through hell in the orphanage and later in her life at the Lancaster mansion, thinking she was all alone and had no one around her who cared for her, someone had been desperately looking for her.
Lucien met Seraphina when he was fifteen and had lost his big brother, who was the light of his life.
And every year on his birthday, his parents would drag him to an orphanage to do charity.
But to him, it was more like they were trying to atone for their sin rather than remembering him on his birthday.
His brother, Ethan, was always Lucien's shield. He was the one who stood between Lucien and their father's sharp, demanding glare whenever he rebelled.
What repulsed him was the news later, making them the most generous people, rather than the parents who killed their own son by pushing him so hard that he decided to give up on his life.
For Lucien, all of this was bullshit.
