Chapter 108

No one was happier than Zoe about Leanna's return.

Once she reported for duty at Harvey's office, Zoe immediately pulled Leanna into her room. "Nana, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I just came back the day before yesterday," Leanna said. "Zoe, Jethro is dead."

Then, she proceeded to briefly explain everything to Zoe, including the photos found in Jethro's suitcase.

After Zoe heard all this, she felt a wave of relief. "I'm not surprised at all. But, Jethro, he…does not look like a father to me. No matter how much of a jerk you are, you wouldn't have betrayed your own daughter like that. He's really shameless."

With that, she asked again, "Then, what are you going to do now? Are you going to find your biological father?"

Leanna shook her head. "Forget it."

"Why? Don't you want to know what happened back then?"

"Regardless of what happened, it has been so many years. There's not much reason for me to uncover them."

Hearing this, Zoe seemed to think for a while before asking tentatively, "Nana, is this because of Lou?"

She knew Leanna too well. For her, a father she couldn't remember was nothing compared to her younger brother, who had been dependent on each other since she was young.

Leanna smiled lightly. "That's not it; you're overthinking. I just think that life is finally starting to calm down after Jethro dies. I don't want to let myself step into another unknown situation. Moreover, he should come and find me if he is still alive. This means that he is no longer in this world or might be married to someone else and have his own children. Wouldn't it make both of us unhappy if I were to look for him?"

After Zoe thought about it, she seemed to agree with Leanna. So, she changed the topic. "But compared to this, I'm more curious about something else."

"What is it?"
