Scarlett ordered ssignature dishes and spoke before serving, "You seem very interested in my mother, Mr.
Tank." When she finished, Larry's countenance changed.
"Yes, that's right." Larry frankly admitted it.
Scarlett sipped her tea, "I don't think we've met yet, M r. Tank." Scarlett had an excellent memory, and she wouldn't have forgotten it if she had met Larry before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLarry's purpose was clear. Hearing Scarlett asked so directly, he intended to be straightforward, "Did your mother ever tell you that your grandparents weren't her biological parents?" Scarlett was shocked by this, and her smile faded.
Scarlett replied, "No, she didn't." Petty Booker didn't tell her these things.
Larry had already guessed her answer. He then took a photo out of his pocket and put it in front of Scarlett," This is my father. It's my grandfather and-" "She's my mother." It was a black-and-white photo. There was a family of four in the photo, and Scarlett recognized Petty at a glance.
Petty, who wore two pigtails in the photo, appeared to be around seven or eight years old. Her exquisite features showed that she was a beauty, despite her youth.
Scarlett suddenly figured things out, and she looked u p at Larry with a blank expression on her face.
The door suddenly opened, and the waiter cin with a trolley to serve.
Larry didn't speak until the waiter left and the door was closed, "Your mother is my aunt, who got lost when she was ten. We've been looking for her for all these years but failed." Scarlett immediately figured out why her grandma always called her an ungrateful brat when she was young and why every tPetty took her hometown, Kyleigh's first thing was to ask Petty for money.
When Scarlett was young, she was confused why Kyleigh's attitude towards her son and daughter was polar opposites.
It turned out that Petty was not Kyleigh's biological daughter.
"I haven't heard from my aunt for all these years. Until several days ago, | saw you at Clair's birthday party. You remindof both my aunt and my grandma when she was younger. | sent someone to Chatbury City to investigate you and your mother at once.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKenny Booker is the nKyleigh gave your mother. Your mother then changed her nto Petty Booker after she got married. Her real nis Pearl Tank, and Perry is her nickname, which meant she's the apple of our eye." "My auntie was abducted from Deeton City and sold to Kyleigh. Then Kyleigh named her Kenny and hoped the presence of my aunt would bring good luck and let her give birth to a boy. Kyleigh then had a boy three years later, and since then she has paid no attention t o my aunt. Remembering Kyleigh’s kindness for her upbringing, my aunt didn't completely break off with her until she sold you for money when you were four years old." There was no need for Larry to say what happened after that, for Scarlett remembered all clearly.
To buy a house for her son, Kyleigh lied to Petty that she was seriously ill and needed money. Scarlett's parents had chometown that day because they had heard that Kyleigh was dying and had planned to see her one last time, only to discover that Kyleigh was alive and well and that illness was a pretext for asking for money.
Scarlett's parents then immediately drove back to Chatbury City, but because a driver of a truck was tired, they were crushed to death by that truck on the road outside Kyleigh’s house.
These facts were only known to Scarlett after she sent someone to investigate. It was also why she didn't show any kindness when Kyleigh and Rocco cto her last month.
Scarlett didn't care what netizens said about her. In her view, if Kyleigh hadn't told a lie and got pissed after her lie was unrevealed, her parents wouldn't have becso angry that they left immediately without hesitation or even died tragically in that traffic accident.
She actually didn't know what was going on until she and Larry had the meal.
