Chapter 390

Matthew had walked up to Hesper's side at some point and held her hand tightly.

Hesper looked back at him. She was hesitant to speak, but her voice sounded extremely hoarse, and she was unable to utter a single word.

"I was shocked too when Hesper was brought back to the Lanes by Matthew, but when I saw that everyone, especially Father, liked her so much, I couldn't bear to clear things up with Father," Theodore continued to explain calmly. "Hesper is also Father's granddaughter, so if we still couldn't find Rachael, why not let Hesper stay with Father?"

At first, Arthur thought that Hesper approached him only to lie to him, and he only wanted to hear her explanation. He did not expect that he would find both his granddaughters in just one day.

Even Arthur, the man who had experienced countless life and deaths, had teary eyes at this

moment.

"What about you, Simon? Since you already knew everything back then, why would you tell Matthew that Hesper was his sister?"

Simon looked at Twiggy with a smirk. "Because I hated Rachael and I didn't want her to be found."

As soon as Simon said that, Arthur yelled, "Benjamin died because of an accident back then! It had nothing to do with Rachael! You can't blame a child who was not even old enough to remember things! After so many years, I thought you had already let go of the incident. I didn't expect you to..."

Arthur almost choked on his own breath, so Helen quickly patted him on the back and turned to glare at Simon, who looked extremely calm. "Hurry up and apologize to Father right now!"

Hesper, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up. "I'm sorry... But wait a minute."

Everyone in the room looked at her, including Wilfred, who had fallen into despair after learning.

the truth.

Hesper's mind was very confused now. Because of everyone's openness today, the fog that was surrounding her identity had become thicker and thicker instead of dissipating.

She felt that there were many flaws in Simon and Theodore's explanations, which made their story sound very unconvincing, but emotionally, she really hoped that she was Arthur's granddaughter more than anything else.

Theodore looked at Hesper with a nervous expression, which was a rare thing to see. "Hesper, if you have any doubts, I'll explain them to you one by one in the future. I know you're very confused right now, but stop talking already. Just think about the matter for yourself for now."

Having listened to Theodore's words. It did not sound like a consolation but more like a warning.

'Uncle Theo is asking me to play along for now and not say anything for now.'

"Okay."

Although she did not know the reason, Hesper could only do as Theodore wanted her to do, so

she took a step back and stopped talking

The face lasted until late that night Arthur was so exasperated that he almost asked someone to best Simon up. As for Simon, he knelt in front of the bed and did not utter a single word since the incident. And the last time he looked at Hesper, there was a hint of hilarity flashing across his eyes that Hesper could not comprehend.

Simon was punished and grounded. So no matter how many doubts Hesper had, she had no choice but to leave with Matthew

It was obviously not a good idea for her to stay in the ancestral manor that night, so Matthew could only bring her back to his mansion located in the city center.

find it all unreal,"

Walking into the room with Matthew, Hesper seemed to have just come back to her senses and realized that something was wrong. She stopped in front of the door and stared at Matthew in a daze. "Matt, do you believe in what Uncle Simon and Uncle Theo said?"

Matthew did not know what had just happened either. Everything that happened that night was completely out of his plans.

But hearing this, he shook his head. "I don't believe them."

"Sure enough."
