I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 641 How Did You Recognize Him?

Leanna sat in the car as her ears were filled with the sounds of rain falling outside.

Waylen continued to speak over the phone.

There was a woman Joseph had been dating for years. They should have gotten married ages ago, but the Woodley Family was unhappy about her family background. Thus, they kept trying to break the couple up.

Joseph had always been insistent that he would marry no one but her.

For some odd reason, just as the Woodleys were about to give in, he broke up with that woman.

Soon, they heard that the woman died in a car crash.

After that, Joseph vanished from the family.

Charles kept telling everyone that Joseph had died in the same accident his ex-girlfriend died in.

Not long after that happened, Charles and Joseph's father, Charlotte's grandfather, fell gravely ill. He clung to life for about half a year before passing away.

There was a rumor among the Woodley Family that the woman had only dated Joseph because she was after the power and fame that came with being part of the Woodleys. When she did not get what she wanted from him, she dumped him and moved on to her next target.

Joseph had been so furious that he arranged for the car accident to kill her. After that, he felt too ashamed to stay in the family, so he secretly left Jamesdon.

The Woodley Family only claimed he was dead to avoid being criticized by outsiders.

"While that's what they say, I don't think the information is reliable," Waylen concluded.

"Why?" Leanna asked.

In the family, Grandpa Philip is someone whose authority is second only to the family head, he explained. "Even though Kian was the family head back then, Charles and Joseph's positions were also quite high in the hierarchy. If that woman had only dated Joseph because of power, she would not have found a better candidate than him."

"Didn't you say that the family had always disapproved of their relationship for years?" she asked.

"Yes. Joseph's father was about to give in and give his approval though, so why would they break up then? That doesn't make any sense."

Leanna silently sat there with her phone held up to her ear. Deep down, she agreed with him.
