Chapter 787: Chapter 789

e hated taking photos?”

This reminded her of Nathaniel’s attitude toward photographs.

She fell silent and resumed eating her breakfast.

On her way back, Lucinda recalled what Uma had told her in the Honeion Bar.

She mentioned Nathan was in such a pitiful state when he completed a mission in the army six months ago and returned with blood all over his body.

He was severely injured.

She also said he vomited blood every day…

Six months prior, Nathaniel had passed away, and around the same time, Nathan had returned to the Payne family with injuries all over his body.

Lucinda wondered if there was any connection between the two.

Lucinda dialed Uma’s number to find out more.

“Lucinda, I’m flattered you called me,” Uma said.

Lucinda asked with a serious expression, “Uma, I wanted to ask you something about Nathan.

”

“Wow!” Uma exclaimed.

“I understand.

What would you like to know about Nathan? I’ll tell you everything I know!” Uma said in a meaningful tone.

“Can you recall the exact day Nathan returned to the Payne family six months ago?” Lucinda inquired.

Uma pondered for a moment before responding, “It’s been too long.

I can’t recall the exact date.

”

“Do you notice anything different about him now?” Lucinda asked.

“No, I don’t think so,” Uma replied.

“He’s been in the army since he was a child and rarely came back in recent years, especially after he turned fifteen.

He only returned half a year ago.

”

“He hasn’t been back to the Payne family since he was fifteen?”

Lucinda found it peculiar.

Something wasn’t adding up.

Lucinda probed further, “Last time we spoke, you mentioned that he was injured when he returned six months ago.

Was his face and back badly hurt?”

“I’m not sure.

I didn’t see his injuries.

I only heard about them from the servants at Grandpa’s villa.

But he was certainly severely wounded.

When he competed with his uncle for power, he always appeared in a wheelchair and wore a mask,” Uma divulged.

Lucinda realized that she didn’t obtain much valuable information.
