Chapter 370: You have to revive the Brown Group...

Jessica pulled away from him, sitting up properly to face him as she took a deep breath.

Davis watched her intently, his unwavering gaze trained on her as thoughts swirled in his mind.

Why was she suddenly confused?

What might the problem be?

Did she have an issue with someone?

I hope she’s not about to reject attending the banquet.

Lately, he had noticed her emotions were always unpredictable.

One minute she was happy, the next she was moody, just like the incident that had landed him at the club.

Sometimes, he wondered if her pregnancy had made her more irritable.

Maybe she had a bad day and didn’t want to talk about it at the time.

He had always chosen to remain calm and not press her with too many questions, hoping she would open up when ready.

Or maybe, after giving birth, she would return to her usual self.

He had believed things would work themselves out with time.

With Jessica still silent, uttering no word, Davis asked again, his voice calm despite the trepidation in his heart, "What is the problem?"

"Do you believe it’s possible that I am a twin?" Jessica’s voice was soft, her tone skeptical.

"Twin?" Davis muttered, trying to process the question but finding no immediate answer.

He glanced at her, confused, while his mind spun with a few hypothetical questions.

If she is a twin, where has the other one been all this time?

And why was she raised alone?

Jessica sighed. "I am a twin. I have a brother, though..."

Her words cut through his thoughts, the sentence echoing in his mind and plunging him further into confusion.

"Who told you? Or did you investigate?"

Jessica rubbed her temple. She hadn’t expected breaking this news to be so exhausting.

She had always thought that once she gathered the evidence herself, it would be easier to explain.

She never expected that, at some point, she would feel even more lost.
