Chapter 536 Let Me Think
The truth came to light. It turned out that Chloe's biological mother was not Kathy, but Pamela's older sister, or rather, the original Pamela.
The elderly man continued, " Twenty years later, when that green ring reappeared, it was owned by a person named Barbara. By this time, Pamela had become a top-tier businesswoman, and dealing with a lesser-known celebrity was no problem at all. But later, Pamela realized she had taken revenge on the wrong person. Pamela then doubled down on her revenge against the right girl, who was actually her biological niece, the real Pamela's daughter. She made the girl unable to go home for three years and separated the girl from her lover. Whatever Pamela had endured back then, she wanted the girl to endure the same."
At some point, Chloe's face was covered in tears, and she sat silently in the restaurant for a long time. "Who are you?"
"I'm an old friend of your grandpa whose name is Bradley.. I often visit him. Bradley can't speak anymore, but every time I visited, he gave me a small note filled with details of what happened. Each time I visited, I learnt a little more, but I pretended to be unaware of how Bradley became paralyzed. Later, I heard that Pamela started taking revenge on you, and through that, I found you, Ms. Caroline Roberts."
"Who?" Chloe was astonished.
"That's what Fred and the fake Pamela discussed when naming the child. Once, Fred said, 'Did you forget I already named our child? Then name her Caroline Roberts.' At that time, Pamela listened and smiled, but inside, she was deeply twisted. She couldn't believe such a good man loved her sister, but Fred wasn't hers. Pamela clenched her fists tightly. Her desire for revenge grew even stronger."
Chloe fell silent again for a long time. It was originally an incredible story, but in the end, the protagonist turned out to be Chloe, making her too painful to bear.
Chloe rested her forehead on her hand. "How is she?"
"Who?"
"Pamela's sister. My biological mother."
"Not well. She's in terrible status. After being tormented by Pamela and losing you, her life was hanging by a thread. If it weren't for her longing to reunite with you all these years, she might have passed away long ago." the elderly man said, taking off his glasses and wiping away his tears.
Chloe suddenly burst into tears, completely different from the last time when Kathy suddenly claimed to be her mother. Last time, Chloe's heart didn't move at all, but this time, her heart was moved and torn apart with pain. "Why did you come to meet me?"
"Bradley said his eldest daughter had been tormented to this extent and couldn't be relied upon. His younger daughter was even more malicious and couldn't be trusted either. Bradley wants to give all his assets to you, roughly over two hundred billion dollars, all saved in a bank. The password is kept only to you, so you need to come back to Emerald Isle with me." the elderly man said again.
Two hundred billion dollars, that was a lot! Chloe couldn't even imagine how much.
It was the money that had kept Bradley alive, but Chloe didn't care about it at all. Her thoughts were chaotic, and she felt deep pain for the real Pamela. Additionally, Chloe didn't know where Fred, her biological father was either.
"Didn't anyone call the police? Over the years, what Pamela has done can be considered deeply sinful." Chloe clenched her fists tightly.
"Pamela's counter-investigation abilities are very strong. Even if others knew what she did, they couldn't find any evidence. Moreover, she was an immigrant, so people knew little about her. Besides, all the maids in Pamela's house were either bribed or dismissed by her. I had no way to prove anything with just the notes Bradley gave me."
Chloe knew this. Over the years, she was aware of Pamela's actions. Pamela indeed managed to leave no evidence for others to collect.
"Do I have to go?" Chloe asked again.
"Yes, you have to."
"Let me think about it."
