Chapter 454: 454: Do you want to test DNA?
I suppose, she wouldn’t allow Grace to come to Serene City either.
Daniel furrowed his brows and continued to watch the video.
[“She comes back every year to spend New Year’s with me. Normally, I don’t allow her to return. The journey is long and she has to switch transport modes multiple times. It’s too cumbersome.”]
[“Serene City is an open international metropolis with many opportunities; she could develop her career there.”]
In the video, Daniel could see his mom shaking her head, with her gaze evading, suddenly becoming guarded.
[“Kyoto is better. Kyoto has many opportunities too, and it’s closer to the coastal province, making it easier to come home.”]
In the video, the man playing the businessman from Serene City stopped talking.
Suddenly, Daniel heard someone in the video shout: “Ella, I forgot to bring money today. I’m buying two chive dumplings, just put it on my tab. I’ll bring the money when I come out to buy groceries later.”
Daniel could hear clearly, his mom responded.
His mother must have changed her name; she probably didn’t want anyone to find her.
In this life, she probably wanted to forget everything about Serene City the most.
Did she also forget him, her son?
Having watched the video, Daniel fell into deep thought.
Even though he felt excitement, he also felt uncomfortable, unconsciously his nose scrunched up more from the sourness.
Suddenly, Daniel’s phone rang. It was a WeChat message from Martin Wallace.
[“From a secret investigation, the woman’s alias in the mining area is Ella Lee, and she has lived there for almost 22 years. When she first arrived, she brought her six-month-old baby, who is Grace. At that time, a man named Luke Ziegler also accompanied her.”]
[“Luke worked at the mine, while the woman took care of the child. They lived together in the factory area, then later, rented a small shop selling chive dumplings. Initially, everyone didn’t interact much with them, but everyone assumed they were husband and wife.”]
[“But their good days didn’t last. An incident occurred with Luke, and the woman was left to raise Grace alone. It was then that the woman gradually got to know the people in the mining area. We checked at the police station, there’s no one named Ella Charles in the coastal province mining area.”]
[“I also have a doubt. Ella Lee’s registered information is not from Pine Village. I guess, she had just taken on Ella Lee’s identity. My contact checked at Luke’s hometown. Apparently, the marriage registration information is identical to the registration information of the woman in the mining area.”]
[“If you want clarification, we can investigate deeper here.”]
[“She has been selling chive dumplings in the mining area residential quarters for 21 years and has never left the area. There is a school in the mining area where children study until high school, before they head to the county town 100 kilometers away.”]
[“At present, she runs the chive dumplings shop alone. She has a harmonious relationship with the people around and leads a simple life. But she seems quite happy, as if she has forgotten all the disputes that happened in the big city.”]
[“We’ve collected some of her personal items. If you want to carry out a DNA test, it can be done at any time.”]
Having read Martin’s message, Daniel promptly replied, [“No need to test the DNA, I’m very certain, she’s my mom. No need to investigate further. My mom doesn’t want to be found.”]
[“Daniel, do you want to go see her?”]
[“I need some time to process.”]
[“Alright! Don’t think too much. Perhaps things aren’t as we see or hear them. The scandal from that year caused a lot of harm to her. Her reluctance to remember is quite normal.”]
[“I know, thank you!”]
Olivia Jenkins didn’t see Daniel again until rehearsal ended.
Walking to the parking lot, Olivia didn’t see Daniel’s car either.
Daniel must have already left.
Olivia covered her face, quiet, just clasping her coat.
