Chapter 1948

Vivian gazed at Manfred.

Soon, Manfred started to speak, "After you left back then, I finished everything in Hubril and went to Graystone. There, I found that couple.

"After questioning them, I showed them some of the things you gave me. They didn't recognize any of it. Even when I mentioned your name, they had no idea who you were. They are most likely not your parents."

He knew she had rushed back, mostly to find her parents.

Maybe just maybe a small part of her also came back for him.

If they weren't her parents... then where were her real parents?

"Once everything in Briarpatch is settled, our route back will take us through Graystone. I'll take you to meet that couple again."

Seeing Vivian so shaken, Manfred felt his chest tighten. He regretted telling her the truth. Maybe he should have kept it from her.
