As soon as the military off-road vehicle left the gate, Abigail Zimrman instructed the driver to stop, and she, along with Titus Zane and two others, got out and entered the sedan they had driven there.
Jon sat in the passenger seat, occasionally looking at Abigail Zimrman through the rearview mirror.
Titus Zane sat next to Abigail Zimrman, one hand tightly held in hers, while the other gently stroked or patted continuously, sighs echoed beside them.
Abigail Zimrman ordered the guards and the driver to keep the visit of Titus Zane and Jon to the military compound a secret, as she had her concerns.
With a hired driver in front, even though filled with doubts, Titus Zane had no choice but to endure.
The sedan headed towards the city center, and when passing a restaurant, Titus Zane asked the driver to stop, pretending to be hungry and wanting sothing to eat.
The three of them got out of the car one after another and entered the restaurant.
It was just before ten in the morning, not a alti, and there were hardly any diners. They chose a private room in a corner, ordered food, and as soon as the waiter left with the nu, Titus Zane eagerly started talking.
"Madam, you ntioned last ti that my mother was killed by Ariana Evans. Could you tell what happened?"
Looking at Titus Zane, Abigail Zimrman sighed again, then lowered her head, gazing at a spot on the dining table, and said, "It’s a long story, and your uncle forbade to ntion it.
Yesterday, I don’t know how my husband found out that Nora’s daughter had co looking for us, just as we were ready to go to the café for an appointnt, his driver took to the compound instead.
George said that from now on, we would live in the compound for safety.
In fact, Abigail Zimrman knew he just didn’t want her to have contact with Nora’s daughter.
Living here, far from the city center, and outsiders can’t co in, so there was no need to worry about them secretly eting again.
Abigail Zimrman looked up earnestly at Titus Zane and said, "Child, I heard you’ve been living abroad for years. You should never co back. Stay away from Julian Zane and Ariana Evans, both of them,
are not good people, more cruel than you can imagine."
Speaking of Julian Zane and his wife, Abigail Zimrman used the word ’cruel’ instead of ’bad’.
Hearing her own parents being criticized, Titus Zane felt no strong ripples inside; at that mont, what she wanted to know most was, "You asked to settle abroad, but there must be a convincing reason for that to be believable."
Abigail Zimrman sighed again and was just about to speak when a waiter knocked on the door, ca in, placed the teapot on the dining table, and then politely left.
Jon took the teapot, poured tea for himself and the two won, picked it up, brought it to his lips and gently blew on it while slowly swirling it around.
Abigail Zimrman took Titus Zane’s hand again, wanting to say sothing, but hesitated. Finally, she patted the back of Titus Zane’s hand and said, "Don’t ask for reasons, I can only tell you, stay as far away from Julian Zane and his wife as possible, do not beco the next Nora."
Then, she gently patted the back of Titus Zane’s hand again and said, "That’s all I can tell you. Please, don’t co looking for anymore."
After speaking, Abigail Zimrman got up and left.
Watching her departing figure, Titus Zane’s eyes narrowed, sinking into deep thought.
She wanted to know: who was Nora, what did she look like, how did she et her father, and how did she die...
All of this, like a mystery, Titus Zane knew that once she found the beginning of this mystery, all the questions would be unraveled one by one.
