"On your grandfather's side of the family, there is a history of heart and blood diseases. Christopher had a bone marrow transplant for leukemia when he was a child, so his blood type has changed. It took us a lot of time to find him."

"You were looking for him?"

"Yes, that is because, this time, you gave all your shares to Christopher. That's why I returned to River City. I hope you'll stop here. After all, he is your brother. Afterward, I'll go and talk to him too..." "That's impossible."

Shane got up straight away and said word by word, "He betrayed me. It's impossible."

Before he finished his words, he had already left the table.

There was a worried look on Mrs. Fuller Senior's weathered face.

Even if she did not like what the man had done, he was still her grandson, a grandson she had never even met before.

In the end, Mrs. Fuller Senior did not go to the movies with them.

Charlotte and Raina sat with Sheryl in the back seat. The little girl was in a good mood and had been chattering all the way. Soon, the car stopped at the entrance to the cinema.

Shane went to buy the tickets, while Charlotte and Raina brought Sheryl to the small kiosk next to the cinema hall to play.

"I heard Theodore overworked himself to death," Charlotte said.

"Why are you asking about this?" Raina was on the alert.

"I have a friend. His sister and girlfriend were murdered in River City, so he investigated all the suspicious people, including Uncle Theodore." Raina's expression looked a little better. "What else did your friend find out?"

Charlotte smiled and shook her head. "I'm not interested in this matter. After all, it's his family matter. All I can help with is find some data." "Have you... ever seen that woman?" Raina asked again.

Charlotte seemed too calm.

This made Raina suspect that Charlotte knew about this matter. In fact, she knew quite a lot of

things too.

Through this question, Charlotte also guessed that Raina might have suspected that she was acquainted with Christopher's mother.

As Sheryl won a prize at her game, Charlotte suddenly replied, "Yes, I have."

"What is she like now?" Raina asked in a rush.

"She's a nun. She eats simply and prays every day. I heard that this started after Theodore's death," Charlotte replied.

"Funny that she does this now. Why did she interfere with Theodore and me back then?"

"Was she the other woman back then?"

"Of course!"

Charlotte didn't say anything.

She couldn't imagine that a woman like Agnes would become the other woman. She was a person who stood apart from worldly affairs and didn't talk much in daily life.

At that moment, Shane returned. Sheryl handed her prize to him and said, "Daddy, look how awesome I am!"

"Really awesome." Shane picked her up and carried her on his shoulder.

"Wow, I'm flying."
