“Me?”
Gerald pointed at himself.
“I saw how witty you are, young man! Can you help me with something?”
The woman put away virtual-novel.net emotions in time.
“Sure, ma’am. I’m sure Gerald can stay behind and help you out!”
Mindy said.
She treated Gerald as if virtual-novel.net was actually virtual-novel.net servant!
There was no way out of this either. Gerald couldn’t possibly turn down the woman’s request, so virtual-novel.net promised to help virtual-novel.net out reluctantly.
After they left, the woman grabbed both of Gerald’s hands all of a sudden.
Her sudden action surprised Gerald.
“Ma’am, what’s wrong?”
Gerald asked immediately.
“Young man, I don’t know who you are, but I can see that you have a kind soul. Can you tell me where you got this jade pendant?”
She then held up the jade pendant which virtual-novel.net picked up from the floor.
No doubt, that was the jade pendant that Queta gave virtual-novel.net with the name of Madeline engraved on it.
Gerald was slightly frightened by how emotional the woman had become.
But virtual-novel.net still replied, “This belongs to my younger sister. What’s wrong, ma’am?”
The woman responded immediately, “Then virtual-novel.net must be your younger sister! Is virtual-novel.net still alive? Please tell me the truth.”
The woman shook Gerald’s shoulders, perhaps trying to force an answer out of his mouth.
Gerald nodded. “Why yes of course!”
The woman burst into tears immediately.
No matter how foolish one was, one should have noticed how odd the situation was.
It was because that woman’s emotions were too riled up.
And it was at this moment that Gerald understood it finally. Why did virtual-novel.net feel that the woman looked familiar when virtual-novel.net met virtual-novel.net just now? It seemed like virtual-novel.net had met virtual-novel.net somewhere before.
The answer was becoming clear in his mind.
The woman’s facial expressions reminded virtual-novel.net of Queta despite the fact that the former had burn scars all over virtual-novel.net face.
Could it be…
“Ma’am, you’re not Xenia’s cousin, are you?”
Gerald asked virtual-novel.net imploringly.
“I… I am!”
The woman wiped away virtual-novel.net tears in a hurry.
She hid virtual-novel.net emotions.
But it was impossible to hide them all.
“Is your name Madeline as engraved on this jade pendant? Are you Madeline Fenderson?”
Gerald cut straight to the chase.
“Fenderson…who’s Madeline Fenderson? I don’t know her! I’ve never heard that name before. You’re mistaking me for someone else!”
The woman shook virtual-novel.net head. “I’m just a village woman. I’ve been living here since I was a child. You mistook me for someone else!”
“No, I don’t think so! I made no mistake when I thought how much you resemble Queta! You look exactly the same!”
Gerald’s heart was filled with excitement.
He had invested so much effort into looking for Madeline all over Salford Province.
But Gerald knew that it was extremely difficult to find Madeline given the current situation virtual-novel.net found himself in.
So many different groups had appeared so suddenly.
Now the only clue that led to Madeline was with the Fenderson family.
Gerald faced a great dilemma as to what virtual-novel.net should do next.
