Chapter 399 We Can’t Let Her Find Out
“It’s a secret rted to Sonia’s life history!” Toby parted his lips and uttered his words clearly. Tom was
stunned to hear this. “Her life history? Is there something hidden in her past, President Fuller?”
Toby nodded. “That’s right. She’s not from the Reed Family.”
“How is that possible?” Tom eximed. “How could she not be from the Reed Family? Everyone in the
industry knows that Mrs. Reed gave birth to Miss Reed in Norfolk Hospital. Miss Reed just went to that
hospital yesterday, and it was proven that she’s Mrs. Reed’s biological daughter.”

“That’s right. 26 years ago, Mrs. Reed gave birth to Sonia in Norfolk. However, that isn’t the same Sonia
as the one we know today.” Toby narrowed his eyes.
Tom was more puzzled than ever. “Are you saying that the current Sonia took over the real Sonia’s ce,
President Fuller?”
“I guess you could say that. The real Sonia might have passed away 26 years ago. There was a series of
reports on a female infant in the file that Sonia was looking at yesterday, right? Most of the reports
indicated that the female infant wasn’t healthy and wouldn’t live a long life. My guess is that the female
infant didn’t even live past six months.” Toby fiddled with his fingers as he spoke.
Tom stared at him. “Why would you make such a guess, President Fuller?”
“Because of Sonia’s red mole!” Toby pressed his lips together. “26 years ago, Henry brought Rina away
when she was only a month old. Then, he threw the infant into theke in front of Titus and Julia’s eyes.
However, no matter how hard the rescue team tried to search for the infant, no one had ever found
Rina’s body. Some said that Rina never died, while some said that she had been washed off into the
ocean. Both sayings exined why they couldn’t find Rina, but most people believed that Rina had died.”
“Well, of course. It’s just a baby—it’d never survive after being thrown into ake.” Tom nodded. “But
what has this got to do with Miss Reed?”
Toby shot him a side re. “Of course it’s rted. ording to Sonia, we can be sure that Rina never
died. Whatever they threw into theke might have been a doll or a pile of clothes.”
“If that’s true, it means that Rina is still well and alive somewhere now,” Tom uttered.
“What if that somewhere is actually in the Reed Family?” Toby narrowed his eyes.
“The Reed Family?” Tom was dumbfounded for a while before he seemed to realize something, and his
jaw dropped. “Are you saying that Miss Reed is the real Rina, President Fuller?”
“Yes.” Toby nodded. “Previously, when I was in the car park of the hospital, I overheard Mrs. Gray asking
Taylor about the red mole on her hand. Taylor imed that the red mole had been burnt off by a cigarette
butt. That was how I knew that the real Rina would have a red mole on her hand. After you mentioned
that Sonia has a red mole on her hand, things got much clearer—it’s obvious that Sonia is actually Rina.”
Tom took a long, deep breath to calm himself down before he spoke again. “Gosh. How did things turn
out this way? Not only did Henry not drown Rina, but he even brought her home and raised her as his
own.”
Toby shut his eyes for a short while. “That’s why I said that the real Sonia never lived past six months.
When Henry brought Rina away, the real Sonia was only five months old. However, there had never
been two female infants in the Reed Family, so my guess is that the real Sonia had already died at that
point. Rina just happened to be a recement for the real Sonia, and she grew up to be the Sonia
we know today.”
Tom gasped and took some time to calm himself down. “That exins why Taylor wants to ruin the red
mole on Miss Reed’s wrist. Taylor probably knows that Miss Reed is the real Rina and is afraid that
someone from the Gray Family will notice the red mole on Miss Reed’s hand. So…” There was no need
for him to continue his sentence. The room was silent for a short while before Tom nced at Toby and
began to speak once more. “Are we going to tell Miss Reed about this, President Fuller?”
Toby drummed his fingers on the table, but the sounds were aplete mess—there was no rhythm to it
at all. He was obviously troubled by the question. After a short while, he furrowed his brows. “We can’t
tell her the truth.”
“Why not?” Tom was curious.
Toby responded with a grim look on his face. “She will definitely have a breakdown. For her whole life,
she has seen herself as part of the Reed Family. The Reed Family holds a huge grudge against the
Grays, and she has a deep hatred toward the Grays. What would happen if you told her that she isn’t
actually from the Reed Family but from the Grays—the family she has hated for so long? What would
she think of herself? What would you do in such a situation?”
Tom lowered his gaze and tried to put himself in her shoes before he responded in a stern tone, “I’d lose
my mind. If I were Miss Reed and I had been taking revenge on behalf of the Reed Family for my whole
life, I would never be able to ept it if I found out that my enemy was actually my birth family.”
“That’s right. This is a problem that has no solution to it. If Sonia knows who she truly is, she will have to
make a choice—to continue taking revenge on behalf of the Reeds, or to recognize the Grays as her
family. She’ll suffer no matter what she chooses,” Toby muttered.
“That’s true.” Tom sighed. “If Miss Reed chooses to continue taking revenge for the Reeds, then she
wouldn’t just be going against her enemies. She’d be fighting against her birth parents. Morally and
ethically, Miss Reed would be at fault. Just the public’s opinions of her actions would be enough to crush
Miss Reed. If she chooses to go with the Grays, then everyone would perceive Miss Reed as an
ungrateful traitor who didn’t appreciate the Reed Family’s selfless care for her. In other words, Miss Reed
would look bad no matter what she did in such a situation.”
“Judging by the sort of person Sonia is, she wouldn’t be able to continue taking revenge after she finds
out that Titus and Julia are her birth parents. At the same time, she wouldn’t want things to end without
the Reeds getting the justice they deserved. In order to resolve the conflict between both families, Sonia
might choose to sacrifice herself.” Toby clenched his fists tightly after finishing his sentence.
Tom nodded. “That’s indeed possible. So, we can’t let Miss Reed find out about her true identity. Once
that happens, things will get a lot moreplicated. If Miss Reed doesn’t know that Titus and Julia are
her birth parents, she will go ording to her initial n to get revenge. That means that she’ll make
Titus and Julia pay for the lives of Henry and the technical staff who passed away back then.”
Toby let out another sigh. “That’s the issue here. Since Sonia is their child, we can’t have her bringing
harm to her own parents. How about this—you can get someone to keep an eye on Titus and Julia. If
Sonia tries to do something that threatens their lives, then our men will make a move to save the couple.
Titus and Julia can die, but they can’t die at Sonia’s hands.”
“I got it.” Tom nodded sternly.
“Apart from that, I need you to arrange for a helicopter to bring me back to Seafield immediately. I need
to see Taylor. Since Taylor betrayed Sonia and Zane, I’m sure they won’t allow her to stay in Seafield
anymore. They will definitely expose Taylor by telling the Grays about her real identity. Once Taylor gets
exposed, the Grays will continue their search for Rina. Although there aren’t many people who know
about the red mole on Sonia’s wrist being sliced off, I don’t think it can be kept a secret for long. Titus
and Julia might hear about it someday,” Toby uttered with his eyes narrowed. “For Sonia’s sake, Taylor
will have to continue ying Rina for a while.” When the right timees, I’ll let Sonia know about her
true identity. However, now’s not the right time.
“I’ll get that done immediately.” Tom nodded.
“Go on.” Toby waved him off.
