    Chapter 916 My Mother Is In The Photo


    The Zeigler family intended to hide the truth from Herbert. Therefore, he was only aware that a virus had broken out in Baykeep. Knowing


    that everything was kept under control within a short period of time, he felt so proud of his second son.


    When things got settled in Baykeep after the virus episode, Phineus took a few days off and stayed at the Zeigler residence.


    Right then, Herbert was ying chess with his eldest son in the living room. He was thrilled when he heard that Yuvan was on his way home


    with Genevieve.


    Herbert gave a hearty guffaw when Genevieve arrived with a tall man.


    “It''s been a while since youst visited me, Genevieve.”


    “I''ve been wanting toe sooner, if not for the lockdown due to the virus.” Genevieve pursed her lips. “Anyway, I''m here now as soon as


    the lockdown is lifted.”


    “You must stay longer this time and read the entire ''Her Tearoom'' for me,” requested Herbert.


    Genevieve nodded. Subsequently, she introduced the man whom she had brought along. “This is my husband, Armand Faulkner. I think you


    two have met before.”


    “Old Mr. Zeigler,” Armand greeted him.


    Phineus, who sat opposite Herbert, stood up and shook Armand''s hand.


    Then, they proceeded to the living room.


    As Herbert took his seat, he asked Yuvan to bring out the moonstone tea set gifted to him by Genevieve.


    She smiled and said, “It''s just a regr tea set. There''s no need to keep it in a special ce, so please use it often.”


    “No way.” Herbert got all serious. “Tea made in that pot tastes the best. I don''t want to simply share it with others. Who knows, they might


    waste my premium tea leaves too?”


    Genevieve blushed at Herbert''s never-ending praises for her.


    When Yuvan returned with the moonstone tea set, Genevieve brewed tea skillfully. Soon, an aromatic earl grey scent wafted through the air


    and filled the entire living room.


    Herbert took a sip, and the furrow in his brows rxed at that instant.


    Genevieve chatted with him for a while. Then, she took out two photos from her bag to show him. “I came here today to show you these.”


    When Herbert saw the little girl in the photos, his hands started to tremble uncontrobly.


    After a long pause, he lifted his head and asked frantically, “Genevieve, I don''t remember taking these photos for Juliana. Where did you get

    them from? Have you seen my dear Juliana?”


    “Yes, I have.” Genevieve patted his back to console him, just in case he copsed due to breathing difficulty. “The little girl in the pictures is


    my mom.”


    “What?” The news came like a bolt from the blue for Herbert. He was not able to process it immediately.


    Phineus hurried over to see the photos, and he recognized the little girl at one nce. It was his younger sister who went missing when she


    was six!


    He shot Genevieve a cold nce and questioned, “Although I don''t go to Jadeborough often, I do know a little bit about your family. Your


    mother was the daughter of Old Mr. Quinn. How was it possible that she looked exactly the same as my sister?”


    Seemingly perplexed, Herbert checked the photos again. “That''s right. Why did my daughter look identical to your mother? That''s


    impossible!”


    “Yuvan!” Phineus shouted at him, and his face was grim. “What are you youngsters up to?”


    Phineus spent nearly every single day of the year in the army. With his high position held in the military, his imposing aura was deemed


    intimidating by the veterans. It was needless to say that Yuvan felt the same way too.


    His scalp tingled from the hostility of his father. With that, Yuvan quickly passed him a paternity test report and said, “Please have a look at


    this yourself.”


    Phineus scoffed as he snatched the report away from Yuvan''s hand, only to realize a piece of shocking news—Genevieve was biologically


    rted to Herbert!


    “What on earth is going on?” Phineus waved the report at his son.


    “Everything''s stated clearly in the report. Genevieve''s mother was your sister who went missing.” Yuvan shrugged.


    Herbert widened his eyes in disbelief and grabbed the report from Phineus'' grip.


    He skimmed through it and checked the results. Then, his gaze fell on Genevieve. He stroked her cheek and shared, “You''ve found favor in


    my eyes the very first time I saw you. I also like chatting with you. At first, I thought that it was because of your vibrant personality. Who


    knew it was because we were rted by blood...”


    Herbert continued with a pair of glistening eyes, “Your eyes are just like your mother''s...” He was resolute. “Yes, you''re my granddaughter!


    I''m sure of it.”
