Chapter 282 - Youre an idiot (2/2)
As much as Muchen did not like to hear about Sara from anyone else, he was a bit curious so he gave him the go-ahead.
”She was in country Y. That's all I actually know in that part.”
”Country Y?”
”Exactly”
Muchen began to type something in his system and once he was done, he turned to look at him again.
”Any other information?”
”Not yet. But if you want me to keep digging, I can”
Muchen looked at him suspiciously. What was suddenly wrong with him? He would never offer to do something without asking for something in return.
”I also found something strange. Sara is supposed to be twenty four years old now and born in a private clinic in City Y right?”
”Yes. So?”
”Here is what I found.” He pointed something to him as he explained.
”I was actually not interested in her birth. I was only curious about Miss Changyu and her relationship with the family after you mentioned that she was also an apprentice in her grandparents' restaurant.”
”Do you know that for some months, Miss Changyu disappeared. She was no where to be found.”
”How does that relate?” Muchen wondered where he was heading to.
”When the Wangs were leaving the country twenty five years ago, they did not leave alone. They left with a baby.”
He showed him an old footage of a younger Jianjun, Helene, Cixi and their mother who was holding a well wrapped baby.
”There was no news of Miss Jin Helene ever being pregnant or married. So I had to hack into the registry and there was nothing like a Jianjun Wang and Jin Helene getting married. Apparently, she was only recorded as Sara's mother but was never married to her father.”
”Wait a minute” Muchen paused to think.
He suddenly remembered all Sara had told him on Christmas day about Changyu's relationship with her family. She had told him about how her parents were framed by Changyu's because she had been close with her father.
He also thought of the familiar vibe he always had whenever he was standing close to Sara. How much they both behaved alike.
Lastly, he thought about how Sara usually made mistakes with her age.
”Wow” He managed to say out. ”I never thought about this possibility”
”So you think it's true also?” Minde moved even closer to whisper ”Miss Changyu is probably Sara's mother?”
”There is a probability of it being so.”
”Wow!” Minde gasped aloud.
”Do you think she knows about it? Should we tell her about it?”
”I'll handle it. You don't have to worry about that.”
Muchen thought it was going to be really nice if Sara's mother was Changyu. Aside from the fact that the woman had a whole lot of influence and power, Sara had always craved for a mother's love and he had felt really bad when his mother slapped her the other time.
But if Sara's mother was really Changyu, then a lot was going to change and she was going to be really happy. Or maybe not? He did doubt the latter though since he knew Sara had always admired Changyu.
Minde still looked surprised. The news seemed to have left him puzzled but he had to move to the next one.
”Hmm bro...I saw something last but I really don't know how to show it to you”
He still remembered everything that had happened the previous night and how he had followed Sara and the strange young man. But he refused to remember further what had happened last night. ”Damn Eva!” He cussed silently under his breath.
”Hmm?” Muchen thought he heard him say something to him but Minde quickly shook his head before taking out his phone from his back pocket.
He was still withdrawing a bit and did not know how to show him the pictures of Sara and the young man but Muchen who did not like delay quickly grabbed the phone from him.
”What is it you want to show me?”
Minde sighed before saying ”Gallery. Pictures”
It did not take long for Muchen to find it. And when he saw and recognised the person there, his eyes darkened.
”Sara?” He asked to be really sure and quickly, he zoomed on the picture to see the young Man's face.
”That bastard. I knew he was up to no good” Muchen said in a angry tone before standing up. Even his eyes was brimming with anger and his free hand was fisted.
”You know him?” Minde looked at him in confusion.
” Yue King. His name is Yue King. The new owner of Grand Castle Hotel”
Muchen remembered how Sara had reacted when they saw Yue King the previous day.
Although she had said she did not know him, he had doubted that a bit. But now, he just confirmed his suspicion.
Yue King was probably the one who had asked her for the painting. And with the way Sara had reacted when he mentioned the hotel had formally been the Jin's, it further confirmed what he had been thinking about.
He was having some shady deals with the Jins and if he was the one who asked for that painting, it meant the Jins were the ones who probably needed it and it was probably the reason why Jin Cearo had been lurking around.
”I think I've allowed Sara to play alone for too long. And I think now is the right time to get involved whether she likes it or not”
Minde watched him as he spoke to himself and suddenly, Muchen turned to look at him.
”I already have some tabs on Yue King. Find out whatever else you can about him and look for any connection he has with the Jins.”
As he gave these orders, he suddenly remembered when he checked about Yue King, he had seen that he had relocated from Country Y to Country B about a year ago. It was the same Country Y that Sara had disappeared to.
He pulled his hair in frustration as he could not arrive at a proper conclusion.
”...Are you bothered that she's probably cheating on you with him?” Minde asked in concern.
Muchen looked at him like he was stupid.
”How can you even say that? Do you think she'll ever cheat on me with someone like that?”
As Minde thought about it, he did not see any reason why she would not. Yue King was handsome and rich so he did not see any reason why she would not.
He nodded before giving an affirmation to his question. ”Of course she can”
Muchen frowned before smacking his head again. ”You're an idiot”
”Ouch!” Minde wailed.
