    Chapter 408


    After leaving Ster Corporation, Rachel drove to thew firm of Adrian.


    “Hey, what brings you here today?” Adrian put down the document in his hand and raised his hand to


    pinch the bridge of his nose. “What do you want to drink?”


    “Were the Johnson family and the Jones family involved in the past. twenty years?” Rachel suddenly


    asked.


    Adrian frowned slightly. “The Jones family?”


    “The Jones family in Aureliana.”


    “I’ve never heard of it.” Adrian looked at Rachel calmly. “But, why do you suddenly think of asking this?”


    Rachel did not say anything. She only held her chin with one hand and stared nkly.


    Seeing how distracted she was, Adrian got up and sat down beside her. “Rae–Rae, tell me. Did


    anything happen?”


    Rachel stared at him for a moment. Her intuition told her that perhaps her uncle was also unaware of


    her engagement.


    After hesitating for a long time, she finally told him what had happened.


    “I see.” Adrian didn’t seem too surprised.


    His reaction aroused Rachel’s interest.

    Perhaps she could find some valuable clues from her uncle.


    “I’ve heard Mr, Johnson mention this engagement before, but we didn’t take it to heart at that time.”


    Adrian said, “I heard from your mother that the other party owed her a favor back then. I didn’t tell you


    all these years. because I hoped that it wouldn’t cause you any psychological burden.”


    At this point, Adrian paused for a moment. “However, the Jones family in Aureliana is not a nice family.


    I think it’s better for you to cancel this marriage.”


    Adrian’s words seemed to exin the doubts in Rachel’s heart, but they did not hit the nail on the head.


    The Johnson family was in Seaxas, while the Jones family was in


    Aureliana. She still could not figure out how the Johnson family was rted to the Jones family.


    How did the engagemente about?


    Since the other party owed her mother a favor back then, could it be that her mother had interacted


    with someone from Aureliana before?


    Questions popped up in her head like a ball of thread that she couldn’t figure out. She was distraught.


    “Deal with your work first.” Rachel stood up and bid farewell to Adrian.


    Adrian watched as she left. His lips moved as if he had something to say, but he did not say anything in


    the end.


    Peace Cemetery in Seaxas.


    This cemetery was situated at the foot of a hill and beside a stream. The location was very nice.


    Rachel slowly stopped the car and got out with a bouquet of white tulips. Rachel’s impression of her


    mother Sophia gradually faded.


    As time passed, even the hatred in her heart gradually faded.


    On her fifth birthday, Sophia chose tomit suicide by taking medicine.


    There was no farewell, nor were there any words left behind.


    Sophia died without hesitation, leaving Rachel alone in this world. Rachel took heavy steps toward her


    mother’s tombstone.


    To her surprise, she found a bouquet of white tulips in front of her mother’s tombstone.


    Everyone thought that Sophia loved flowers, no matter what kind of flowers they were. However, very


    few people knew that she loved white tulips the most.


    She quickly walked forward and frowned slightly as she looked at the white tulips in front of the


    tombstone.


    She noticed the new footsteps in front of the tombstone. It meant that the other party had just left.


    Who woulde to see her mother?


    Rachel subconsciously looked around. From the corner of her eye, she saw a suspicious figure. “Who


    is it?”
