Chapter 90 The Man Five Years Ago
Chapter 90 The Man Five Years Ago
Hendrix was a little surprised, "Now you want to know his identity?"
All these years, Hendrix had been trying to mention that in an inexplicit way. No matter what, that man
was Edmond's father. So Hendrix wanted to know who that man was.
This was an explanation to Edmond.
No one would hope he didn't know his father.
But Everly always refused to mention it again. Hendrix could understand her. She felt that she was very
irresponsible back then. Later, she was pregnant. She took pains to decide whether she should give
birth to the baby.
It would be ruthless to have an abortion. But if she gave birth to it, it seemed like he couldn't have
father love.
Soon it had been a long time. She didn't want to know who that man was because she couldn't face it.
What kind of man was he? It was a question without an answer to both Edmond and her.
"Just now..." Everly sighed at the thought of the conversation between Edmond and Maverick, "I think
I’ve ignored Edmond's feelings. He must be dying to have a father. After all, he is still a little boy. I can't
avoid that matter anymore."
"I agree with you. And I support your decision." Hendrix nodded.
"You told me you knew something, right?"
"Edmond told me in private that he wanted me to help him find his father. You were so repulsive at that
time, so I didn't tell you the details." Hendrix continued, "You were on your business trip when Edmond
asked me to do that. So I got someone to investigate."
Everly was quiet for a moment before asking, "What did you get?"
Hendrix paused for a few seconds before saying, "It's not good news, but at least there are some clues.
Many of the staff in that hotel had left. But some cleaners still work there. My men asked a middle-aged
woman when they investigated it. She said she still remembered something about what happened that
year."
"Tell me the details."
"She said that the woman kept pulling the man. Originally, she had thought that they were young lovers
who were drunk. Later, they found it was not like that. Because the man looked indifferent and icy. He
wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking very gentle. At that time, the staff thought that the man
must have the woman drink. He took her to a room. And later, she heard the woman saying ... Well,
You have no idea about what you said?"
Everly's face immediately flushed red. She was still very embarrassed even if it was Hendrix.
"Well ... skip this. Tell me something valuable." She looked away, "You know what I look like when I'm
drunk."
"Anyway, judging from the staff’s words, the man was at your age. Now it's only five years, so maybe
he is still single."
Everly could not help but roll her eyes, "Many people get married and even have children in their
twenties."
"The staff had worked there for many years, so she had seen many rich people. She said that the man
looked rich. The watch on his wrist was worth tens of millions."
Everly frowned, "She is just a cleaner. How could she know famous watches? Maybe it's a knockoff."
"It seems you don't want the man you slept with to be a handsome, rich guy." Hendrix laughed.
"Hendrix!" Everly got embarrassed. "Stop saying that. It's very embarrassing."
Hendrix stopped teasing her, "Fine! You are thick-skinned enough to do that. The cleaner said that her
poor husband liked to study watches. A few years ago, their family had a business in the watch
industry, but it seemed they declined. Anyway, she wouldn't lie. It was a diamond watch. She wouldn't
mistake it. I went to find the watch she described. Five years ago, a limited edition B series watched did
hit the market. This one should belong to that series."
Hendrix took out his phone and showed the picture to Everly.
"This watch is not on sale now. So I found it quickly. Moreover, only a few pieces came into the market
back then. Anyway, I can find him."
Hendrix put away his phone and touched his chin. He smiled and said, "He's quite rich. To be honest, I
wanted to buy this watch before, but it was hard to get. Everly, I'm very interested in him now. I must
find him."
Everly was speechless, "You are interested in him? Hendrix, pay attention to your words."
"Hey, don't be so mean. You want to speak for him just because I said he was a rich single man?"
"Nonsense!" Everly was not as optimistic as Hendrix. "Things would be difficult if he is rich. There are
only a few wealthy families in City C, so only a few men can afford such an expensive watch. Moreover,
some of them are fops and have been engaged. Some of them even already get married and have
children. Things would be simple if he is an ordinary man, but if he isn't ... Don't you worry at all?
Edmond would become ..."
An illegitimate boy of a wealthy family.
Everly felt heartbreaking when she thought that Edmond would be related to words like that.
Hendrix didn't think about this aspect before. But indeed, maybe this would happen.
He thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "No matter what, we can make decisions after I make
things clear, okay?"
Everly nodded.
She had already thought it over just now. Since it had happened, she couldn't avoid this anymore.
So, before making the final decision, she had to know who that man was.
She told Hendrix to keep it a secret.
...
In Italy.
Kailey was out to get some sunshine with the help of her servant.
Now she had to rely on medicine to help her with daily life. But she didn't care about the life she had
now.
She didn't feel happy.
Despite being under surveillance, she wanted to be alive to do something.
She had come out from those hard moments, so now, it was time to make those people pay the price.
Sounds a car engine came from the courtyard.
Kailey turned to look at the servant who could speak Chinese. Maverick arranged this servant for her.
The servant bowed and said respectfully, "Madam, it should be Pira."
Kailey was not surprised, but she frowned slightly.
The sound of the engine disappeared and soon she heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Kailey ordered the servants, "Go get the medicine. Come and tell me to take it and have a rest about
five minutes later."
The servant understood and immediately left.
From afar, Pira saw Kailey sitting on a wheelchair with her eyes closed, as if she was basking in the
sun. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
There was a hint of contempt in her eyes. But she put on a sweet smile when she came over. She
greeted in Chinese, "Kailey."
Her parents were Chinese and Italian, and she spoke Chinese very well. She knew Maverick later.
She worked hard to learn Chinese because Maverick didn't like to speak Italian. Now she was very
fluent in Chinese.
"Afternoon." Kailey slowly opened her eyes and smiled at Pira, "How are you these days? Are you
busy?"
As she spoke, she raised her wrist to look at her watch. "I'm getting old and dense now. Indeed,
Maverick is supposed to be back now. But he told me yesterday he couldn't come over. He is busy with
things in China."
