Yesterday cannot be traced

Chapter 1

It was the sixth year of my marriage to Seraphina Sterling, and her 88th kept man showed up at our door.

I kept my face calm, expertly handling the situation.

Then, I got a message: my three-year-old daughter had been kidnapped by her new secretary and boy toy, Damon Thorne.

I begged her to save our daughter, but she just wrapped her arms around Damon and glared at me.

“Caleb Knight, three years ago, you used every dirty trick in the book to marry me, just to get rid of Damon.”

“Now you’re trying to use that mistake of a child to stir up trouble between us, aren't you? Her birth was a mistake anyway. She’s better off dead!”

When our daughter's legs were severed by the kidnappers and she was fighting for her life, Seraphina rerouted all the doctors to treat Damon, who only had a small scratch.

Our six-year-old daughter bled to death. Even my sister, Lily, who was in a coma, had her heart removed and given to Damon.

I clutched both urns and went to see Grandpa Sterling.

“Grandpa, the Sterling family’s kindness, I’ve repaid it with two lives. From this moment on, we have no ties.”
