Chapter 1499

"Which one do you think the man in prison here in Asherton is? Kaleb? Or Sonia's husband?" Ilooked at Hendrix and asked.

He lowered his eyes slightly to look at the picture in the diary. It was a picture of a man who lookedidentical to Kaleb, with his arms wrapped around Sonia. The man in the picture had fair skin andgentle eyes. He looked like an ordinary young man without Kaleb's air of hostility.

If Sonia hadn't mentioned in her diary that he was his twin brother, I would have thought that theman holding Sonia in the photo was Kaleb himself.

"All we can do is to go visit the man in the prison tomorrow," Hendrix said. He closed the notebookin his hand, looked at me, and continued, "You need to stay in Jarold City tomorrow and go back tothe Moore Family's villa. After two days, Tobias will come to Jarold City. You can take himsightseeing around Jarold City. In addition, you can act as my proxy for anything in the companywhich needs my signature."

I was stunned. "Why? I thought we agreed to go together, why are you changing your mind now?"

He pursed his lips and explained patiently, "If the man in prison is not Kaleb, we can't be sure thatthe dead body you saw in Oakland was Kaleb either. If he's not dead, then he is a wanted criminalnow. We can't guarantee that he doesn't have any tricks up his sleeve and is waiting for us to fallinto his trap. If you are in Jarold City, at least you will be safe with the Moore Family. They won'tdream of doing anything to hurt you here. In addition, according to the current situation, Sebastianhas planned to give up all the assets in Asherton, so it is unlikely that he will go to Asherton anytimesoon. He is most likely to stay with the Milton family in Jarold City. I will take care of the things inAsherton and then come back as soon as I can. Wait for me here."

I calmed myself down and nodded to show my agreement. Then I looked at him and said, "Youhave to be careful too, take care of yourself. No matter what happens, you have to let me know

you're safe at any time."

He nodded and wrapped me into his embrace. He reassured me feebly, "Everything will be fine afterthis period."

I looked up at him. "When you come back, can you promise me one thing?"

He smiled faintly and asked, "What do you want?"

I really didn't know how to bring up the IVF After hesitating for a moment, I looked at him and said,"Hendrix, if it is possible, are you willing to do... Never mind, forget it, I'm going to take a bath!"

I really didn't know how to talk to him about this matter. I had already reached this point. I was a littlescared now. My desire to have a child was not as strong anymore. I would be content just havingand raising Anne. However, the Roberts were a powerful and wealthy family. I felt a little guilty that Ihad cost the Roberts family two children because of my recklessness.

In the bathroom, I gazed at myself in the mirror and stayed silent for a long time. I couldn't believethat almost half a lifetime had passed. Fortunately, we had not reached the end yet. We hadn't losteach other as Aaron and Yana had, nor had we fallen into despair like Andrea. Life wasunexpected, and we wouldn't know how things would turn out until we reached the end.

I had suffered and been through a lot, but I had also met people who loved me. I hoped thateverything would turn out fine in the future.novelbin

As I came out of the bathroom, I saw that Hendrix had finished packing up his things. Seeing that Iwas wrapped in a towel and my hair was still wet, he said disapprovingly, "Come here, dry your hair.I've told you so many times not to let your hair stay wet like this, you'll catch a cold!"
