The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 2195
Cole's peaceful gaze turned hot when he looked at me. He continued, "The Fredericks didn't let her go easily. They sent people after her. Later on, Millicent brought her back to the Yards, and Sandra became a servant of theirs. Even though she was a servant, Millicent treated her well and used her power as a Yard to protect Sandra. Sandra also likely remembered the kindness that Millicent had shown her."
I had never expected the Fredericks to be so insidious.
I thought of what Jordan did before and figured that he must have been bewitched by his family members to act like that. Thinking about it this way, everything seemed a lot more reasonable.
"My adoptive mother remained with the Yards the entire time after that, so where did I come from?" I became interested in what happened next. I could know about my life a little further down.
However, Cole shook his head. "There seems to be a section in the middle of the story that has been deliberately covered up. I haven't found out about it yet. Through inquiries, my subordinates were only able to replace out that Sandra brought back a child from somewhere that she loved dearly. During the economic crisis that year, the three major families gradually declined, and many of her enemies came for her. In order to protect her child, Sandra took her and fled far away."
"I was the child she brought back, but it's a pity that we don't know what happened in the middle." There was regret in my voice when I said this.
"It's not difficult to replace out. It's just a matter of time."
Cole's words revived my spirit, and my eyes lit up when I looked at him. "Really?"
"Yes."
With his affirmation, I smiled. "Then, thank you for the trouble, Mr. Anders."
It must be very difficult to investigate this matter since it happened so many years ago. Thinking of this, I continued, "If you need me, please let me know. Theo can also mobilize some people." "No, my people are enough." Cole practically blurted out.
This stunned me. He did not seem
too friendly about Theo, but I did not ask too much. "Alright then. Thank you again, Mr. Anders. So, it seems that the sandalwood box my adoptive mother gave me isn't something from the Tylers. It most likely belongs to the Yards, no?"
Cole gave a soft 'hmm'. It was noncommittal. "It's very possible, but no one knows what's in the box. I want to know too."
"Were you in contact with my adoptive mother? Why do you want the box?" I gave voice to the doubts trapped in my heart, but I did not know if he would tell me.
I saw Cole turning his head away with a smile on his lips. After a while, he said, "You'll know one day, but now is not the time."
This was a familiar sentence...
I pursed my lower lip and subdued the confusion in my heart before replying calmly, "I'll wait for that day to come. Have you found the other box, Mr. Anders?"
"Of course it's with Jackie
Kingsman I'll negotiate with him
won't bother you anymore, President Lane. I've said my piece, so I'll take my leave first." After saying that, Cole got up and walked out.
He came here just to tell me this?
"Mr. Anders, don't you care about our next project?"
The man turned around, his eyes flickering I believe in your abilities, so don't let me down." A smile spread across his lips after he said that. Then, he turned around and left
Although he had a cold aura and it felt like he was always holding people at length, for some reason, I felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with him. This feeling was a first.
Looking at his back as he drifted away, I recalled what he said just now and was more and more curious about my identity. Could I believe what Cole said, though?
