You Are The Pursuit of My Life
Chapter 137
Chapter 137
Edric had fallen asleep, but Irene was quietly contemplating something on her mind. Why did Edric throw her such a weird question that night? Why would he suddenly ask about Myra? What was he trying to find out? Or did he already figure something out? Since Irene could remember, Myra had always been very reluctant to talk about Dania. She would just brush the topic off and tell Irene that Dania had died. But if that was so, why was there no grave of Dania?
Was Myra lying? Was Danie not actually dead? Did Edric find something out, and was that why he came to ask Irene about it? But what was the relationship between this matter and Edric? When Myra died, the only family Irene had left with was Thomas. He was the only one who knew about all this. Irene decided that she had to go back to check with Thomas.
The next day, Irene returned to Thomas' residence. She chatted with him briefly before quickly inserting her question, "Uncle Thomas, I have a question to ask you. Did grandfather and grandmother only have you and mother?" Thomas was stunned and nodded.
"I heard from Mom that my grandparents died when you guys were very young. You and mom were raised by other kind people. But why is it that my mother has only ever brought me to visit my grandfather's grave but not my grandmother's?" Thomas did not reply to her. Irene saw his silence and asked tentatively, "Is she still alive?"
Thomas shook his head. "She's dead."
"Then why don't you guys bury her next to my grandfather?" asked Irene.
"Well... because... because she got married to someone else later on," Thomas trailed off.
"Remarried? To who?" Irene was slightly dumbfounded.
"I think the man's surname was Walker. I don't know the details. Back then, your mother and I were very young. They moved away soon later, so we aren't sure," explained Thomas.
Irene understood the entire story somewhat. It turned out that Dania had abandoned her children and remarried after Yohannes' death. Myra must have hated Dania, so she never brought her up. "How could Grandma be so cruel?"
Thomas wanted to explain it to Irene, but he didn't know how. If he defended Dania, Irene would definitely ask more questions. This would undoubtedly complicate things. However, if he chose to remain silent, Irene would surely misunderstand Dania. And, Thomas felt bad about it. Dania was actually a great person; it was never her choice to remarry another man!
Irene continued to press on, "After Grandma remarried, she probably had more children, right? Does that mean I actually have other relatives?"
"Irene, are you hoping to have one?" asked Thomas.
"Of course, having a relative is better than being alone and helpless. Uncle Thomas, would you be able to recognize Grandma's children if we found them?" Irene's eyes were sparkling with expectations.
Thomas looked at the time. "It's almost noon. I'll buy some food for you. What do you want to
