The Amazing son in law Chapter 1386

“Yes!” Mrs. Lewis replied, tears streaming down her face. “Back then, I wasn’t stationed in Aurous Hill permanently; I was working in Highland Falls. One night, steward Thompson urgently summoned me from Highland Falls to Aurous Hill. Together with another member of the Wade family, I took charge of the orphanage. Within a few days, we replaced all the staff at the orphanage with members of the Wade family. Once everything was in place, I followed steward Thompson’s instructions to find you and bring you to the orphanage…”

Charlie was stunned!

This was something he had heard since childhood, and it felt utterly unbelievable!

He had entered the orphanage at the age of eight and lived there for ten years. Now, he was learning that all the staff had come from the Wade family?!

Could it be that he had spent his entire childhood and adolescence under the watchful eyes of the Wade family without even realizing it?! Thɪs chapter is updated by FіndNovel.net

He struggled to accept this new reality. Yet, deep down, he knew Mrs. Lewis had never lied to him. What could this possibly mean?

Trying to suppress his anger, he asked her, “Auntie Lewis, why did you go through all this trouble? Why did you hide my information? What was your purpose?”

Mrs. Lewis, with tears in her eyes, replied, “Master! Your parents didn’t die in an accident; they were murdered by a gang that intended to wipe out your entire family!”

“What?!” Charlie exclaimed, “My parents were killed?”

Mrs. Lewis continued, her eyes filled with sorrow, “Do you remember what happened that year? Your parents rented an old house in Aurous Hill under the radar and changed your name so you could attend Aurous Hill No. 1 Primary School…”

Charlie nodded, recalling, “I remember that my parents died in a car accident while I was in school. So you’re saying that my parents were actually murdered?”

“Yes!” Mrs. Lewis confirmed. “The people who killed your parents staged the car accident. They were preparing to find you at Aurous Hill No. 1 Elementary School to eliminate you too. It was steward Thompson who intervened just in time, apprehending everyone at a small gate in Aurous Hill. He initially intended to keep them alive for questioning, but they all committed suicide by poison. Later, he investigated and discovered that they were all connected to overseas gangs, but the trail went cold.”

Charlie asked, “Did he find out who was behind my parents’ murder?”

Mrs. Lewis replied, “They were never able to uncover who instigated the gang. Steward Thompson feared that the mastermind would still want to harm you, so he decided to conceal your identity in Aurous Hill. He arranged for us to run the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute to protect and care for you while keeping your information hidden. Our only concern was that the perpetrators wouldn’t let you go!”

“Was steward Thompson acting on the orders of the Wade family?”

“No…” Mrs. Lewis shook her head. “Steward Thompson has always suspected that the Wade family might have had a hand in your family’s demise, which is why he kept this information from everyone in the Wade family.”

Charlie inquired, “Then why did he suddenly come looking for me recently?”

Mrs. Lewis explained, “The master has been searching for you for a long time, but when he couldn’t find you, he thought you were missing. Last year, he planned to make a formal will to arrange the inheritance of the Wade family’s assets. The steward didn’t want you to miss out, so he informed the master of your whereabouts. The master hopes you could return to Eastcliff and compete with the other Wade family descendants for the family business, but he also understands that you might refuse. That’s why he sent a gift of 10 billion dollars…”

Charlie couldn’t help but ask, “Mrs. Lewis, what about your need for a kidney transplant due to uremia? Is that true?”

At this, Mrs. Lewis shook her head vigorously, confessing, “Young master, my illness was a ruse. I knew that since you grew up with me, you’d understand my character. I had to force you into accepting the Wade family’s help, so I pretended to be dying. I confess my deceit and ask for your forgiveness!”
