Matias stared at the advertisent, just to see that soone was looking for the owner of this jade and
asked people to contact them, leaving their contact information.”
Matias imdiately excitedly wrote down the contact information, then looked directly at Nara and said,
“Nara, these are your family mbers, they’re looking for you!”
After saying this, he took out his phone, wanting to contact the other party, “I’ll call right now, let’s see
who they are, and if possible, you should et them!”
Unfortunately, before he could make the call, Nara stopped him.
Nara waved her hands and gestured: I’ll contact them myself.
Matias was taken aback, “How will you contact them? You can’t make phone calls, can you?”
Nara glared at him, stubbornly pouting and gesturing: Can’t I send text ssages and type?
Matias: …
Matias knew his sister appeared gentle and frail, but she was actually very stubborn inside; when she
made up her mind about sothing, nobody else could decide for her.
He silently sighed.
Then he spoke up, “Then you send a ssage and ask
now.”
Nara nodded, took her phone, and went out the door.
She sat on the steps at the entrance, quietly looking
ahead.
Many people rented rooms within this courtyard house, the neighbors had all watched her and her
brother grow up since they were little, and now they were all taking walks and chatting.
Nara watched them, her thoughts sowhat complicated.
She had known since she was little that she was adopted, and she also wanted to know who her
biological parents were and why they had abandoned
her.
Was it because she was mute?
Her brother said that when he found her, she was about four or five years old, had a fever, and after
waking up, she couldn’t speak anymore.
So, did her family not want her because she was mute?
Or because they were poor?
She had thought of countless possibilities, never expecting to see sothing on the TV today related to
her own identity…
Thinking up to this point, she picked up her phone, hesitated for a long ti, and finally sent a ssage
to the other party: “Hello, I am the owner of that piece of jade, may I ask who you are?”
The other party did not reply to the ssage for the ti being.
Nara stared at the phone, her hope gradually fading.
It seed her family didn’t want to recognize her either, right?
That’s why they didn’t reply to her ssage promptly…
Nara gave a wry smile.
Then she suddenly saw a person entering through the front gate and imdiately stood up-it was
Keira.
She walked up to Nara and said, “Did soone from Jackson deliver your pendant back to you last
night?”
Upon hearing this, Nara hesitated for a mont, then shook her head.
Keira’s expression imdiately darkened. “Then I’ll go and get it back for you now!”
Nara thought about it for a second, eventually nodding; knowing Keira could not understand sign
language, she took out paper and pen to write it down, “I want to go with you.”
The fact that the jade had been on the news ant it had co from Jackson; could this an that her
relatives were in the hospital, too?
She wanted to check it out…
Keira nodded and went in to greet Matias.
Since Matias couldn’t walk yet, Keira asked him to stay at ho. She then left with Nara.
After the two left the alley, they saw a black sedan
parked on the side of the road: Lewis was leaning
against the car waiting for them.
He was still dressed in casual attire, his deanor relaxed, and his profound gaze fixed on Keira. His
affectionate dark eyes seed as if they wanted to draw her in.
Sunlight poured in from behind him, casting a golden glow over him.
For a mont, Keira was lost in a daze.
Lewis had truly transford into a driver for her sake during this period, paying no mind to business
affairs…
She lowered her gaze, letting Nara take a seat in the
back.
Then she got into the front passenger seat.
Nara was sitting in such a luxury car for the first ti. She looked sowhat restless as she gazed at
the clean leather cushions, clutching the corner of her clothes tightly. She then looked down at her dirty
shoes, afraid of soiling the car.
Keira seed to sense her discomfort and made small talk. “Nara, is that pendant very important to
you?”
In a short while, Nara handed her a piece of paper that
5/A
read, “It was left to by my parents. I was adopted by my brother.”
Keira was startled when she read this. “What? Then don’t worry. I will definitely help you get it back!”
Nara quickly replied, “Thank you.”
Keira looked at her through the car’s rearview mirror.
The girl sat there quietly, her clothes sowhat old but not dirty. She was a lovable girl.
Keira just curled her lips into a smile.
Jackson was in a hospital that, while not publicly disclosed, was easy for Keira and Lewis to find out
about if they wanted to.
The car soon arrived at the hospital.
Keira still had Lewis stay in the car while she took Nara
upstairs.
The two walked down the long corridor and finally found Jackson’s hospital room.
Jackson was in a VIP room, and the corridor on that floor was rarely populated. It was very quiet.
Nara followed Keira nervously and quickly arrived at
the door.
Austin was inside at the ti, chatting with Jackson.
Austin began anxiously. “Jackson, where exactly did. you get that jade piece? We’ve placed
advertisents, and too many people have responded! We’re still screening one by one! If you get any
information, you have to tell us fast!”
As he spoke, several more ssages popped up on his
phone.
They were from people he didn’t know, who had mysteriously sent ssages to him.
Most of them were asking, “That jade piece is mine, when can we et?”
Others were inquiring, “I can provide information about the jade, can I get paid for it?”
Jackson saw these and imdiately said, “Austin, these ssages are just trying to scam us for
money…”
Austin, without hesitation, replied, “How much money do you want?”
As he answered, he said, “As long as we can find my sister, no amount of money is too much!”
►
Jackson was speechless.
After Austin sent that ssage, he scrolled down
further…
At that mont, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Keira walked in with Nara confidently.
Jackson, upon seeing them, imdiately beca anxious, yelling fearfully, “Keera, what are you doing
here again?”
Austin also sprang up. “Senior Sister, we’ve already left the Freeman Sect. You can’t co to
reprimand us
anymore!”
Keira, finding their reaction amusing, said, “I’m here to get sothing from Jackson!”
Austin frowned. “What thing?”
Keira looked toward Nara, “What is the specific pendant?”
Nara took out paper and pen and wrote, “It’s a piece of jade, moon-shaped.”
