Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 206 - 206 Behind the Truth 4

Chapter 206: Behind the Truth 4 Chapter 206: Behind the Truth 4 After getting 200,000 yuan, he gave up keeping an eye on Aunt Nelson’s family.

Later, he learned that Aunt Nelson had moved not long after, and he lost track of where she went.

With the 200,000 yuan, he thought about starting a business and perhaps bumping into the woman from that night when he became successful. With this idea, he really did straighten up for a while.

Unfortunately, old habits die hard, and ultimately, he lost everything in the gambling den.

That fleeting dream was gone just as quickly as it had appeared.

Returning to reality from his memories, he told Victoria Garcia everything he knew honestly.

“Can you describe what Aunt Nelson looked like?”

Jonathan Carter shook his head and earnestly said, “Besides remembering her having a long face, I don’t remember anything else.”

“What about the people close to her? Do you remember any of them?” Victoria asked him.

Jonathan Carter tried his best to recall, saying, “I remember she had a son who was around eighteen or nineteen at that time, but his front teeth were replaced with gold teeth. I don’t remember anything else.”

Victoria searched her mind for any impression of such a person but found nothing.

“I’m sorry.” Jonathan Carter suddenly apologized.

Victoria looked at him puzzled.

“You don’t owe me an apology; if you truly feel guilty, try to find Aunt Nelson for me.”

Jonathan Carter looked distracted, immersed in his own thoughts and not fully paying attention.

“How is your mother doing now?” Jonathan Carter genuinely cared about the answer.

Sadness showed in Victoria’s eyes.

“She’s dead.”

“How is that possible… Why… Such a good woman should be living well.” Jonathan Carter muttered in disbelief.

Victoria didn’t want to delve into Jonathan Carter’s reaction.

“Don’t worry, I’ll cooperate with you completely and won’t ask for a cent.”

Victoria looked at the ragged man in front of her and thought about her mother being with such a man… it broke her heart.

Not wanting to look at him any longer, she walked straight out.

She made a promise to herself that she would make whoever hurt her mother pay twice as much.

At the entrance of the alley, trees cast dappled shadows, dim street lights flickered, and suddenly it was midsummer. A cool breeze blew towards her, calming her fluctuating emotions.

She opened the car door, started the engine, and drove onto the road.

There weren’t many vehicles on the road, and Victoria drove faster and faster. She drove aimlessly, or perhaps there was a place she wanted to go but didn’t realize it.

It wasn’t until her car stopped that she discovered she had driven to the cemetery—where her mother was buried.

The cemetery was terrifyingly gloomy at night, and Victoria could feel it, but she couldn’t help getting out of the car. Even if she couldn’t enter, she stood outside Cemetery Park, thinking of her mother.

Perhaps this was the closest way to remember her.

“Mom… Mom…” Victoria’s murmur was so soft that only she knew she was speaking.

Leaning against the external wall, she slowly squatted down, her hands covering her head. Tears slid from her eyes in a straight line, flowing to the corners of her mouth and leaving a salty taste.

“Mom, why did you go? Why did you leave? Do you know how much I miss you? How can you bear to leave us? Mom,…”

Murmuring, Victoria began to cry uncontrollably.
