Chapter 633

Barbara's eyes widened. "Why would I lie? Rainie is our daughter... Areyou messing with us now?"

Zachary said unhurriedly, "I have proof. That's why I said that. NBarbara panicked then and hurried off to her husband, Tobias Lang.As they conferred with each other in their room, Zachary simply waitedoutside without hurrying them.

Still, it took a while for them to return, and Tobias asked,” Who areyou?"

"I stayed here because I recognized her and came to investigate heridentity," Zachary admitted. "Be honest and I won't make things hard foryou, but if you insist on denying it, you can't blame me if I get rough.”Nonetheless, Barbara and Tobias had made their choice afterdiscussing it in their room.

Rainie Lang was not actually their daughter, and they could not hide itany longer now that someone came knocking on their doorstep.Moreover, the rest of the village knew that, since a stranger suddenlyappeared in their house. Zachary just needed to ask around for proof."Could you tell me who you are to her?" Tobias asked.

"Family," Zachary replied.

Barbara sighed then. "We fished her out of the sea, but she had nomemories-the doctors claim that she had brain damage from losing toomuch oxygen."

Zachary slowly clenched his fists at his side.

"So you kept her here all this while?"

There was no accusation in his words-in fact, he was grateful, becauseLulu might really have been killed if not for Barbara and Tobias!"...Yes," Barbara said. "She's forgotten where she's from or even hername, so we allowed her to stay.

"Actually, we had a reason for keeping her," she paused, her voicechoking with tears as she confessed, "My husband and I only had onechild, but he drowned in the ocean when he was twelve. It almost killedus, and even when we tried to have another, the doctor told me after acheck up that I was infertile, denying us from having more children inthis lifetime... and though we resigned ourselves to that fate, Rainiesuddenly came to us."

"We named her so because it was pouring the day we saved her, andwe used our husband's last name for her. We've been caring for her asif she's our own daughter ever since and we've let her stay here withus, but we never called the cops or tried looking for her real family...”"Thanks for telling the truth,” Zachary said then, "but more than that,thank you for saving her and taking you in. If there's anything you want.I'll grant it as long as it's within my abilities.”

"Oh, we're fine," Barbara said. "We're self-sufficient with this homestay,and we'd never go hungry. What good is getting rich too? We have nochildren to inherit our fortune."

Zachary pursed his lips in silence.

Barbara was right, but he could not give them a child.

"You can take her with you. You know where she works, don't you? Youcan replace her there!"

With that, she and Tobias headed to their rooms.

Zachary put a business card on the front desk. “Call me if you needme."

There was no reply, but he could tell that the people inside heard him.After that, Zachary intercepted Rainie while she was leaving work andshowed her a photo of Lulu from university, which he had kept all thiswhile.

Rainie saw it, and she said, "Oh? She looks just like me..."
