Chapter 299 The Shocking Truth

Jean was puzzled when she heard his words. She looked at the bearded man. He looked shocked. Edgar, on the other hand, looked terrified.

“You, do you know about it?” Edgar did not reply him. He told the innkeeper and Miles to carry Mr. Jevin out. When he opened the door of the truck once again, he realized that the driver had run off and was out of sight.

“The truth will be revealed as soon as we find the driver.” The whole village searched for the missing driver. But this person seemed to have vanished into thin air. There was no news of him.

That night, Mr. Jevin regained consciousness. But he refused to see anybody. He only called the innkeeper to let Jean come over. “Me?”

“I’ll wait for you outside. Don’t worry.” Edgar stood beside her and spoke to her in a low voice. These words gave Jean some strength and courage.

She nodded, and walked forward. The room was very dark. Mr. Jevin leaned against the bed head. When he saw Jean, he flashed an apologetic smile to her. “Come closer, girl.”

Jean did not hide her confusion.

Mr. Jevin sighed slowly. “You look very much like your father. I should have noticed you sooner. You have his eyes.”

“Do you remember now?” Jean got a little excited.

Mr. Jevin shook his head and smiled bitterly. “How could I forget something engraved deeply in my mind?”

He reached his hand underneath his clothes and took out an old wrinkled photo. His hand trembled as he handed it to Jean. “Look. Is it these five people?”

Jean looked at the photo. The same five people were in the photo. But the photo was different from the one she had.

Jean frowned hard. “Will you tell me what happened that time?”

Mr. Jevin gave a deep sigh.

“The story will torment you if I tell it. Do you still want to know?”

Jean paused for a while but quickly continued, “There is no way my life will be more difficult than it is now.”
