Chapter 107: Reliable Man
‘If he’s really Reba’s ex-boyfriend, then everything that happened makes sense!’
‘He was in a rtionship with Reba, so perhaps he knew me from her. With his ability, it is easy
for him to know everything about me. Did he help me for the sake of Reba?’
‘Mr. Mysterious once said that he had a beloved woman. Is that woman Reba?’
‘No, it can’t be her. Mr. Mysterious once mentioned that the woman had been married. Reba
hasn’t been married and is still single.’
Thinking of this, Estelle felt puzzled.
“Estelle, the more I think about it, the more I feel that Mr. Mysterious is my ex-boyfriend,” Reba
took a deep breath and said.
Estelle then suddenly asked, “Reba, you have never been married, have you?”
Hearing her question, Reba fell into silence and didn’t say a word for a long time.
Estelle’s heart sank when she saw Reba’s reaction.
After the long silence, Reba sighed and said, “Well, to tell you the truth, I was married once.”
“What? When did you get married before?” Estelle asked as her eyes widened in surprise.
“About six years ago,” Reba said, looking very upset. “Well, I had no choice at that time. I
dumped my ex-boyfriend and married someone else. He must hate me very much. Since we broke
up, he has never contacted me again.”
Hearing that, Estelle was too shocked to utter a word.
After a few seconds, she asked, “Why... Why did you...”
“I got married because I wanted to adopt a girl. She was only twelve years old at that time. Due to
school violence, shemitted suicide many times. I also suffered school violence when we were
in high school, so when I knew about her situation, I felt sorry for her and wanted to adopt her.”
“ording to the rules, only couples could adopt a child. But I knew my ex-boyfriend and his family
wouldn’t agree to let me adopt her. So... I registered for marriage with someone else and then
adopted that child without telling my ex-boyfriend,” Reba said.
After hearing the whole story, Estelle didn’t know what to say. She didn’t expect that Reba was
married before.
“Reba, where is your husband now?” she asked.
“We divorced a long time ago. We got married just to adopt the girl. Back then, when I proposed to
get married to him and adopt that child, he agreed without hesitation. And after adopting the girl, we
got divorced. Later my father knew about it and almost beat me!”
“Then what about that girl?” Estelle asked.
“That volunteer is taking care of her,” Reba said as she took out her phone and showed the
pictures of the girl to Estelle. “Look, she is eighteen years old now and haspletely got rid of the
shadow of the past. Besides, she has been a freshman at the best university in Hadale and is living
a happy life.”
“Estelle, sometimes I would wonder whether what I had done was right or wrong. I saved the girl,
but meanwhile, I broke my ex-boyfriend’s heart. I contacted him several times after I got divorced,
but he was very cold to me. Later, I had to give up on him. Maybe it is fate that we can’t be together.
But it doesn’t matter. Seeing this girl grow up happily, I think what I did was worth it. Nothing is more
important than saving a life.”
Hearing this, Estelle just nodded.
As more and more evidence showed that Mr. Mysterious was Reba’s ex-boyfriend, she had
mixed feelings.
Then she suddenly remembered that Mr. Mysterious had said that he was guilty of his beloved
woman.
“Reba, did your ex-boyfriend have a new girlfriend after you two broke up?” she asked.
Speaking of this, Reba said in depression, “Yes. Once I went to see him, he introduced his new
girlfriend to me and showed off their love in front of me. I cried after I came back and was sad
because of him for a long time.”
“...”
“s. I dumped him, and he also made me sad. We’re even. Anyway, we haven’t seen each other
since then, and we won’t be together again. Just let bygones be bygones,” Reba said.
Taking a deep breath, Estelle asked the uppermost question in her mind as her heart beat faster,
“Reba, may I know who your ex-boyfriend is?”
After hesitating for a few seconds, Reba sighed and answered, “It’s Justin Roberts.”
“The president of Roberts Real Estate Group?” Estelle’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Yes,” Reba said and nodded.
‘Mr. Mysterious is Justin…’ Estelle thought in disbelief.
She had met Justin once before.
On her eighteenth birthday, her father held a birthday party for her at the Grand Hotel of Hadale City
and invited many of his friends. She remembered that Justin also went to the party.
At that time, she was still in love with Cristofer and didn’t pay much attention to Justin.
She only remembered that Cristofer once said that Justin was very excellent and was the only one
who couldpare with him in Hadale.
Reba continued, “Tim is Justin’s younger brother. Back then, Tim insisted on running his jewelry
company but Justin wanted him to work in Roberts Real Estate Group. They argued because of this
and Justin froze Tim’s bank ount in a fit of anger. And when Tim had no money, I helped him.”
Hearing this, Estelle nodded and said, “No wonder you rmended me for the job in Only Love
Jewelry. You knew that he would hire me as long as you rmended me to him because he owed
you a favour, right?”
“Hey, hey. Although I didn’t be his sister-inw, we are still friends. So, when I rmended
you to him and asked him to give you a chance for an interview, he agreed without hesitation. But
you got the job because you arepetent, not because of my rtionship with Tim,” Reba said
smilingly.
Estelle then picked up her phone and searched for Justin’s information on the Inte.
Justin was indeed very excellent. He graduated from a famous university with dual degrees in
Architecture and Business. When he was in university, he was a Straight-A student. After taking
over Roberts Real Estate Group from his father, he expanded his business rapidly in the country
and became a billionaire.
“Estelle, what are you thinking about?” Reba asked and waved her hand in front of Estelle’s
eyes when seeing her in a daze. “Don’t think too much and just follow your heart. I’ve broken up
with Justin for six years, and we haven’t contacted each other for a long time. Now, we are likeThis text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
strangers. If he is Mr. Mysterious, that will be good. He’s a nice and reliable man, and you will be
happy if you are with him.”
