Chapter 602 She Is Madam
The family doctor shook his head. "Mr. Lancaster is not in serious condition."
"But Mr. Lancaster passed out." Joe pointed at Henry, questioning what the doctor had just told him.
The doctor looked at Dr. Tom, "Dr. Tom should be able t o answer your question."
"Yes, Mr. Lancaster''s body is fine. The reason he passed out was because he was slowly regaining
his memory." Dr. Tom put away the small shlight and smiled.
Joe was pleasantly surprised. "You mean Mr. Lancaster''s memory is going to be restored soon?"
"Yes, I''m certain." Doctor Tom nodded.
Frederick was also very excited. "Great, this is amazing news!"
"Dr. Tom, when will Mr. Lancaster wake up? Will his memory be fully restored after he wakes up?"
Joe asked again.
Dr. Tom pondered for a few seconds before answering, "His memory will definitely be restored, but I
can’t be sure how long it will take for him to wake up. If he wakes up too soon, his memory will not
be fully restored. If he wakes up after a long time, his memory will most probably be fully restored.
This is because memory restoration requires an adaptation process."
"I see." Joe nodded after he listened to the doctor''s exnation.
Anyway, as long as Mr. Lancaster could wake up, everything would be fine.
After that, Joe sent the doctors out. When he returned, he suddenly stopped Frederick.
Frederick looked at him. "Do you have something to tell me?"
Joe took a deep breath. "Frederick, I have a question and I think you know the answer. I hope you
can answer me honestly."
Frederick put Theo who had fallen asleep next to Henry and after he tucked the both of them in bed,
he asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"Frederick, is Miss Shannon Smith our madam?" Joe finally voiced out his doubts.
Frederick''s eyes trembled. "Hmm? Do you think she''s madam?”
"Yes, I think she is. Actually, when I first saw her, I had suspected that she was madam because of
her face. However, after I found some information about her, I cleared up my suspicions. It was
when I heard her talk about how she was burned when we were at the party earlier."
"And?" Frederick walked shakily with his walking stick to his previous seat and sat down.
Joe looked at him. "Then I got suspicious about her identity again because in this world, there is no
way two people can look so simr and share such simr experiences. How could both of them
experience the same thing? That is obviously impossible unless they’re the same person."
"You’re not wrong to say that." Frederick nodded.
Joe clenched his fists excitedly. "So Frederick, she really is madam, right?"
Frederick looked at Henry and sighed, "Well, I can''t keep the secret forever. Fine, I’ll tell you the
truth. She i s madam."
"I knew it!" Joe gasped.
Even though he was mentally prepared because of his suspicion, he was still shocked when he
heard it from Frederick himself.
"Madam has changed so much..." Joe said.
The Shannon Smith they met had apletely different personality and was more capable than
Yvonne. The only simrity was their face.
"The reason why madam changed so much is that she experienced being on the verge of death
twice," Frederick said.
Joe swallowed his saliva. "Twice? Oh yes, I remember madam mentioned at the banquet earlier
that she was burned twice, but as far as I know, it only happened once in the industrial zone. Did
madam experience
another fire that we don''t know about?"
Frederick nodded. "Yes. The second fire almost killed her, but I shouldn''t talk too much about it. This
is the most painful experience that madam has gone through and it is not up to me to speak for her.
If you want to know, you can ask her for yourself when Mr. Lancaster recovers his memory."
Joe thought about it. "Okay, but I have one more question."
"Is it about Theo?" Frederick took a guess.
Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
Joe repeatedly answered, "Yes, it is about Theo. Theo i s five years old this year. Madam was
pregnant six years ago, so since she survived, her child should be about the same age as Theo. So
I have a feeling that Theo is actually madam''s child. Is that right?"
"Yes, Theo isn''t an illegitimate child. He really is the young master of the Lancaster family."
Frederick looked at the little boy who was sound asleep beside Henry and his gaze was full of love.
"No wonder Sue helped Theo''s mother. Sue must have known about it a long time ago." Joe''s eyes
were red with excitement. So, Theo’s mother who kept saying that she has a grudge against Mr.
Lancaster is actually madam, but why does she have a grudge against Mr. Lancaster?"
This was the question he simply could not answer.
Frederick shook his head. "Well, I''ll tell you the same thing. When Mr. Lancaster''s memory
recovers, he can ask madam in person. When that happens, I think madam will tell him about it. By
the way, you’ve already asked so many questions, but how did you find out that I knew about
Shannon’s real identity?"
Joe scratched his head when he heard that. "Well, about that... I actually didn''t think about it at first,
until I heard what she said and suddenly remembered that I saw you and madam walking toward
the memorial hall before the party, so I put two and two together." 1
After all, no one could enter the memorial hall except for the Lancaster family.
But Frederick brought in an outsider, which showed that the outsider must have a close rtionship
with the Lancaster family.
"So that was what happened!" Frederick touched his beard andughed, "I didn''t know you saw us."
"Yeah, if I hadn''t seen that moment, I wouldn''t have thought about it. Speaking of which, after
knowing that Miss Shannon is madam, I think I know the mastermind behind the incident tonight.
There can only be one person, and that is Jacqueline. I’m sure Jacqueline also knows that she is
Yvonne," Joe said affirmatively.
Because madam never had any enemies, except for the Conrad family.
In that case, could madam be responsible for Dominic Conrad''s disappearance?
"Yes, the person behind this is Jacqueline indeed. Madam came back this time to seek revenge on
Jacqueline. This is what madam told me personally," Frederick said.
Joe clenched his fist. "It seems like the story about madam getting off the car in the industrial zone
must have something to do with Jacqueline."
"Let''s talk about it after Mr. Lancaster wakes up. When he wakes up, he''ll regain his memory and
he''ll definitely meet madam. Even if he doesn’t fully recover, he''ll definitely remember some things
about madam. By then, all their grievances will be resolved face to face. The most important thing
now is to find Jacqueline."
"You''re right. I’ll send more men to try to catch her as soon as possible." Joe turned around and left
after he said that.
After leaving the family residence, he got in the car while he tried to call Yvonne on the phone.
Yvonne had already returned to the apartment. She was lying on the bed after taking a shower and
was about to rest. When she heard the phone ring, she nced at the phone and was surprised
when she saw the caller.
Joe called her!
What a surprise!
Even though she was surprised, Yvonne still epted
the phone call. "Mr. Woods, what''s the matter? Did something happen to Mr. Lancaster?"
Her voice was calm and cold.
Now that Joe knew about her true identity, he was still in disbelief when he heard her icy tone.
Madam was such a gentle person.
It was as if she had turned into apletely different person now.
"Mr. Lancaster didn''t ask me to make this call, I wanted to call you," Joe replied respectfully after he
gathered his thoughts.
Yvonne raised her eyebrows. "You wanted to call me? What''s the matter?"
