Chapter 129 The Truth of the Past
Seeing that Taylor Green had chosen him, Julian Smith let out a sigh of relief.
Julian Smith looked at Norton Carlos and suddenly said,”We’ll talk for a long time. Why don’t you find a place to rest first, Mr. Carlos?”
When Norton Carlos heard this, he glanced at Taylor Green with a slightly depressed look. Then, he found a chair in the corridor and sat down.”No, I’ll wait for you here.”
Julian was speechless.
If Norton Carlos had waited here, how could Julian Smith and Taylor have calmed down to have a good chat?
However, Taylor Green felt that it was good to make it clear today, so she nodded and said,”Okay.”
She followed Julian Smith into the private room.
The MTCR club was the best club in Parkgrove city.
Many people talked about business here, and the sound insulation effect was very good. The voices outside could not be heard after they entered the private room.
Taylor Green sat down on the sofa in the private room and looked at Julian Smith.”Mr. Smith, you…”
Julian Smith frowned before Taylor Green could finish.”Ms. Green, shouldn’t you explain the engagement first?”
Taylor Green was taken aback.”What?”
Julian Smith lowered his gaze, his ears a little red, but he forced himself to say,”You care about me so much because you have fancied me, right? Since that’s the case, I can’t possibly allow a woman like you, who I’ve given a chance to, to do two-timing things.”
Taylor Green was confused. Just as she was about to retort, Julian Smith opened his mouth again.”Ms. Green, when you were in Rheinsville City, you’ve been in frequent contact with my son. After you returned to Parkgrove, you approached me, again and again, to inquire about me. All of this should be what I understand. After all, apart from this reason, there shouldn’t be any other reason, right?”
Taylor Green was shocked!
She knew that Julian Smith was narcissistic, and he always thought that all the women who approached him liked him. However, today, he gave her a different feeling.
It was as if Julian Smith was setting up the truth and reasoning for her. Was he trying to persuade her and make her feel that she liked him?
Taylor Green frowned.
When she thought about it carefully, if Julian Smith didn’t know that the son was his, then Taylor Green’s actions during this period were indeed a little out of line.
Taylor Green had paid too much attention to Julian Smith.
Moreover, if she denied it now, wouldn’t it seem too strange?
Taylor Green didn’t speak for a while.
Julian Smith stared at her with his dark eyes.
He had to come to a conclusion as soon as possible. Otherwise, Taylor Green might run away with her fiance!
Julian Smith raised an eyebrow, lowered his gaze, and continued,”If you don’t speak, it means that you’re admitting to it. Ms. Green, am I right?”
Left with no choice, Taylor Green had to admit,”Sort of.”
She glanced at Kate.
Kate also glanced at her silently:Alas, Mommy only knew how to sleep. I didn’t expect that she would contribute to this family one day. It’s really rare.
Julian Smith saw that she was reluctant, so he picked up his cell phone and sent a message to Lenny Patel:[Check on Norton Carlos.]
After he sent the message, Julian Smith put down his phone.
“Umm. Since Ms. Green likes me and I am willing to give you this opportunity, I will answer your questions in detail. Ms. Green, please ask your questions.”
“…”Taylor Green looked at him speechlessly;she was very speechless now.
However, since Taylor Green had finally found this opportunity, she asked directly,”Mr. Smith, do you know Gene’s biological mother?”
Julian Smith fixed his gaze on her. His dark, deep eyes flickered a few times before he said,”I don’t know her.”
Taylor Green was confused.”Then why do you hate Gene’s biological mother so much?”
Julian Smith tightened his jaw.
He looked at the coffee table before him, and his expression became a little serious. He had never mentioned what had happened back then to anyone because it would expose the scar in his heart. But at this moment, he understood that if he did not make it clear, it would be difficult for him to recognize Taylor Green.
Thinking of this, he said lightly,”Five years ago, on April 7th, I received a phone call. A woman said that she was my son’s mother and asked me to prepare 10 million dollars for her. Then she will tell me where my son is.”
Ten million dollars…
Taylor Green frowned and asked,”And then?”
Julian Smith said in a low voice,”Of course, I don’t believe that because I have no memory of any woman, except for that night.”
Taylor Green clenched her fists unconsciously, and the anxiety in her heart made her repeat,”And then?”
Julian Smith noticed the tremor in her voice and slowly said,”After that, I hung up the phone. Maybe she realized she couldn’t get the money from me, so she sent me a location and said that my child was there. If I didn’t get it, my child would suffocate to death.”
Suffocation to death…
Even though she knew that Gene Smith was safe and sound, Taylor Green still found it hard to breathe.
She suddenly remembered that when she eavesdropped on Kevin Green’s phone that day, he said he would bury the child himself…
As soon as she thought of this, she saw Julian Smith’s eyes turn cold.”I just happened to be passing by Rheinsville City at that time. I felt that something was a little strange, so I visited there. Sure enough, I saw Gene, who was buried shortly after he was born.”
Taylor Green suddenly stood up. She clenched her fists so tightly that her arms were trembling.”How was he at that time?”
Julian Smith raised his head and looked at her.”He was no longer breathing by then.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Taylor Green’s pupils shrank all of a sudden.
Julian Smith’s voice was still deep.”When I dug Gene out of the soil, his mouth and nose were full of dust. Fortunately, I brought a family doctor with me and gave him rescue breathing in time. The doctor said that the child had been buried for about 20 minutes… If I was late after a few minutes, he might not be able to be saved.”
At this point, Julian Smith’s mood also became gloomy, and a sense of frustration and resentment rose from the bottom of his heart.”Gene was later found to be suffering from mild autism. The psychologist said that that incident caused it. Although Gene had no memory at that time, he didn’t feel safe.”
As Julian Smith spoke, he stared straight at Taylor Green.
Gene had been weak since he was a child. Julian Smith would hate Gene’s biological mother even more, every time he was ill. For the sake of money, that woman didn’t care about her son’s life.
Julian Smith wished his biological mother were dead.
But from the moment he knew that his son’s biological mother was Taylor Green, he had been suspicious of what had happened back then. He looked at Taylor Green and asked,”Ms. Green, what’s wrong with you?”
Taylor Green looked at him.
After learning the truth, Taylor Green felt heartache for Gene, and she also breathed a sigh of relief. She finally knew the reason, and then everything could be discussed!
She fixed her eyes on Julian Smith and said,”Gene’s biological mother had her own difficulties!”
