Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 433

“Yep.”

Edith nodded, her gaze fixed on the screen in front of her. “My friend bumped into Bella at a party a while back, got lucky, and snagged her on Instagram. She mentioned that Bella posted something last year, something about a blessing from above?”

“What kind of post?”

Gregory furrowed his brows, sending a picture over, “Ask your friend if the girl in this picture is the one with Bella.”

“Will do.”

Edith quickly forwarded the picture to her friend, feeling somewhat puzzled herself. “What’s so surprising about a daughter in her twenties anyway? Was she living with her dad all this time?”

“Dig around for more info.”

Gregory’s fingers tapped rhythmically on his desk, a sense of intuition nagging at him.

This had something to do with him or Jane, somehow.

Two years ago, she was impersonating someone in the Myers family, and now she’s Bella’s daughter?

Something was off.

Maybe it was time to have a chat with Bella.

Soon enough, Edith’s friend, fresh off her latest stage gig, replied, confirming the girl in the photo was indeed the one from Bella’s Instagram.

“Jane!”

Lost in thought on the couch, I was brought back to reality by Ike’s soft voice, his head peeking around the corner, a bashful look on his face. “Uh, I forgot I don’t have any clothes on.”
