Chapter 369
Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison
âWhatâs that got to do with you?â
Wilson said coldly, then got up and walked back towards his own bedroom.
Elsieâs eyes bugged out as she started yelling.
âWhat kind of attitude is that? Did I touch a nerve for you not to answer that question? Tell me honestly if you like men and got mad because of that!â
Wilson ignored her completely and slammed the door shut.
âWhatâs this man doing playing cool! Straight guy like him will regret it someday.â
Georgia had to laugh. Sheâd always felt there was something between Elsie and Wilson.
But the two were like snails. For every bit of progress, they seemed to get stuck again.
Well, it wouldnât do for outsiders to step in, so Georgia only asked a question.
âWhatâs up with the two of you? Forget what Wilson thinks, do you want to date him? If you want to, then go ahead and confess.â
Elsie looked complicatedly at Georgia.
âI did have some illusions that I liked this dummy, but when I just asked him, his reaction makes me think Iâm the dumb one for even liking him. Donât ask me those childish questions again. Spoils my mood.â
With that, Elsie also turned and walked towards her own bedroom.
Georgia sighed as Annie turned towards her.
âWhat are Uncle Wilson and Auntie Elsie arguing about? I donât understand them at all.â
Georgia stooped down and picked Annie up.
âI donât understand whatâs going on between them, either. Maybe thatâs how they flirt. Ignore them. I donât get it, either. Letâs go take a bath.â
Saying that, she carried Annie towards the bathroom and got the water running.
Meanwhile, Travis went and drove straight to Sarahâs place.
After about an hour, he knocked on the door right away.
Soon a servant opened the door. Seeing that it was Travis, they let him in directly.
Travis went in and walked right up to Sarah sitting on the sofa. She was staring at the numbers and projections on her computer. Hearing footsteps, she lifted her head. It was Travis. Sarah was confused.
âWhyâd you come over all of a sudden? Not even giving me a call first. Is something wrong?â
She directed one of her servants to make some tea.
Then she turned back towards Travis.
âWhy donât you sit down? If thereâs anything, have a seat and we can talk about it.â
Travis recalled all the times the two of them had put their lives on the line to support each other.
He suppressed his doubts and sat, asking his question in a restrained tone.
âBack then, when you did the DNA test for Sierra Moon and Wesley Simpson, the results showed they were mother and son by birth. You told me that. Do you still remember?â
Sarah nodded, her heart jolting.
If Travis was asking about this, it meant he probably knew the truth.
She made a befuddled face.
âHas there been some issue?â
Studying Sarahâs expression, Travis slowly spoke.
âIâve confirmed on my side that Sierra and Wesley arenât related. Back then, why did your test show they were mother and on? I want you to tell me the truth, Sarah. Has there been some sabotage on your end, or have you been lying to me from the beginning?â
Sarah hesitated for a few seconds over whether to keep playing dumb or to tell the truth.
Finally, she replied.
âMaybe thereâs a problem with one of my subordinates. Iâll find out who the mole is. It might be that Sierra had caught wind of our investigation into her relationship with Wesley, and she bribed someone to fake the report.â
Sarah finally decided to push the responsibility onto someone else. Travis stared deeply at her.
He had a basic grasp of the kind of person Sarah was after a year of interaction.
Sarah only ever did what she considered to be right. In her view of morality, if she thought it was the correct course of action, she had to take it.
âI donât care if you were behind it or if your subordinates went behind your back, Sarah. I just wanted to tell you one thing â donât interfere with whatâs between me and Georgia. I had hoped that I could get back together with Georgia. Even dreamed about it. But I donât want to use any trickery or plots. I would really lose her if I did.
âOf course, I probably wonât have a chance with her now. Georgia already cleared it up today. I might not see her too much from now on. After I help you catch Jayson Mathis, Iâll probably find someplace secluded and settle down. Thatâs that for the relationship between Georgia and me, I guess. No need to pity me or try to help. Iâll be fine on my own.â
As he said that, Sarah couldnât resist speaking up.
âRobert Simpson is no longer of this world. This is a chance for you to get together with Georgia. Why would you give up on yourself like this? If she loved you before, that proves youâre her type to begin with. When she gets out of the shadow of Robertâs death, sheâll discover your good points again. The Travis I know isnât a person who gives up easily. What did Georgia say? Getting you to lose courage like this.â
âThe first reason is, of course, that I donât want to put Georgia on the spot. I donât want the purity of the relationship we once had to end up completely ruined in the end. I am still her first love, the purest first love of her memories. I donât want our relationship to become a chaotic mess. I know what Georgia is like, and my persistence will has a ninety-nine percent chance of ending up fruitless.
âAs for the second reason â didnât you see what happened today? The Simpson family inheritance still hasnât landed with results. Georgia told me why. She had a marriage certificate made with Robert already, so on Sierraâs end, she faked evidence to say the will was fake, but still couldnât inherit the property, since Sierra hadnât made a certificate with Robert. Georgia and Robert are together again, so sheâll always remember him even if heâs gone. Moreover, I actually suspect...â
Sarah raised the question.
âWhat do you suspect?â
âI suspect that Robert isnât actually dead. That maybe heâs behind all these events, that maybe heâs faked his death. I know Georgia, and Iâve seen a lot of the feelings between her and Robert. If Robert really had left this world, Georgia would absolutely get over it. Sheâs a strong person. But even Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison ï¤Chapter 368 A Clear-Cut Refusal for Travis Armstrong The Unexpected Marriage ï¤Chapter 251 What's The Use Of You Have I Told You Lately ï¤Chapter 147 It must Feel Good to Have Him Drive Me to Work then, it wouldnât be this quickly. She wouldnât be fighting against Sierra this calmly right now. Other people think that her determination comes from her pain, but I think that itâs because she knows full well Robertâs still alive, and itâs her happiness that gives her determination. Of course, those are just my suspicions.â
