The Woman From Hell

Chapter 520

When we arrived at the restaurant, we randomly ordered a few dishes to eat.

I was in a bad mood, so naturally, my appetite was affected too. I took only a few bites before putting down my cutleries.

Heidi looked up at me. "They've returned to Salt City but lied to you and said they were still in the States because they didn't want you to worry.”

I helplessly sighed. "I know.”

Aside from not wanting me to worry, I could not think of other reasons why they would want to lie to me. Therefore, I was not mad when I learned that they were lying to me.

Heidi then took two more bites and put down her cutleries. “Since they chose to lie to you so you wouldn't be worried, I suggest that you shouldn’t confront them directly.”

After a pause, she continued, "I'll take you to a place tomorrow. After you find out why they're hiding things from you, you can then approach them and ask them about it.”

I had a strong urge to ask Jerome right away as I was unable to wait even for a moment. However, Heidi had made a point. If I did not know the reason why they chose to lie to me, they might not tell me the truth even if I confronted them.

"Have some more food." Heidi sighed.
