Chapter 444

He suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Nothing left of her body? Could it be there's a shocking secret behind this tragedy?

“She switched me with her daughter back then and kept me with the Jefferson family, whereas her daughter was with the Shurmer family. Now that I've ruined Zoey's reputation, do you think that woman has returned to deal with me on Zoey's behalf if she is truly Sophia?”

Artemis fell silent for a brief moment and nodded in response. “We can't rule out that possibility. Don't worry. I'll try to dig more information about that woman before we come back to this.”

“Okay.”

At the same time, in the Gezmond residence, Lionel called Holden over the phone and told him to come and pick Wendy up.

Holden hung up the phone right away. Lionel thought he would not come, but he still showed up in the end.

At the main entrance, Holden stood by the stairs. Wendy looked down at him and said expressionlessly, “I'll bring Sebastian away with me once he's rescued. We will not disrupt your life and bring you any trouble.”

Lionel reached out and patted her back. He seemed like he wanted to say something else but gave up in the end. “Sure, I wish you the same.”

Wendy pursed her lips and turned slightly away, fixing her gaze on the scenery outside the window.

It doesn't matter if you like me or if you're only using me. That does not change the fact that you approached me with a fake identity and took advantage of my feelings for you back then. It also doesn't change the fact that you left me without saying goodbye when I needed you the most. Moreover, you have stolen the most important intel from the Hoffman family by using my trust.

“Don't bother about it. It's been so many years. Whatever we had back then has already faded with time. You're only a stranger to me now, not the man I love. You guys don't even have the same name.”
