Chapter 146 Chapter 146 "Back to her hometown? I don't remember her having much in her family." My father toldthat Galen Brown and his wife knew each other in the orphanage. They didn't have any relatives in their families.
Now why would their daughter Geneva even bother returning since Galen Brown is missing and his wife had passed away? "She got expelled from school." Vinson got someone investigated and found out that Geneva Brown had been living on her own in Aurorea for years.
She seemed to live a better life before as she had enough money to get by even if her mother passed away. But life had been hard on her for the past six months. She started stealing money at school and even got caught shoplifting with her classmates.
In Aurorea, that's enough to rack up a pretty serious record, even though she's not yet 18.
The school finally had no choice but to expel her, leaving her with nowhere to go but back home.
I couldn't help but think of Geneva's image: big eyes, clever and sensible with two faint dimples. She was always so bubbly and cheerful.

But back then, what I had been through for the past few years also changeda lot.
"Can we find out when she's coming back? Where she might go?" Vinson pulled out his phone and senta message.
"I've got the flight and tall checked out for you, so will you go back?" "I've booked you a flight this afternoon. How are you feeling?" Geneva is coming back tomorrow afternoon and probably to the old house where she used to live.
Galen Brown's assets were likely confiscated now and I was wondering where else she could go.
Thinking I might get sclues from her, I looked at Vinson with gratitude. "Thanks." He just shrugged his shoulders without saying much more.
I knew he cared about me, but there was nothing I could give in return.
If only I a few more years to live, Otherwise nee maybe then I'd have a chance to repay him. looks to another lifetime.
it's I saw the groundbreaking ceremony being posted in the company group chat on my arrival at the airport.
The overpass project was getting a lot of attention. Even the housing prices of a few neighborhoods developed by the Patterson Group were on the rise.
To my surprise, not only Clyde, but also York and Lisa were there too.
She stood by Clyde's side as if she were the landlady.
Especially when she linked arms with Clyde for photos, plenty of people took screenshots and maybe they thought I'd been cuckolded again. It was quite frustrating to be in my position.

Because whenever Clyde was annoyed with someone, he clenched his jaw tight.
Seeing him trying not to laugh, I couldn't help but chuckle myself.
Turns out, the charm offensive isn't all that effective. It has to be genuine.
And when I rushed home, I witnessed a scene that truly shocked me.
Lisa was right in front of me, at the door of my apartment dressed in a red silk dress with a sheer white coat draped over her shoulders. "Clyde, it's so scary staying in a hotel all by myself."
"Don't you get scared living in such a big apartment alone? Letstay! with you tonight." "Melanie's not here, just letin." Clyde blocked the doorway, refusing to let her in.
