Chapter 406 They Could Not Find the Murderer Everleigh opened the box and saw photos. One was of her and her parents, and the other was their wedding photo.
Although the photos were a little old, she could see that they were happy.
The man was handsome, and the woman looked gentle and lovely. Anyone would say that they were a perfect couple.
"I kept this after they passed, in hopes of showing you what they looked like after I found you." Everleigh reached out her hand to touch the photo. Her eyes turned red and tears began to fall uncontrollably. She really did look like Lillian.
Especially those eyes.
Watching her, Saniogo's eyes turned a little red too, but he was content. At least he had not let his younger brother down.
He did not leave her alone in the world.
"Uncle, what is this?" At the bottom of the box, Everleigh found a piece of paper and two pendants.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"This paper is a list of your shares. Half of what the Jenkins family owned belonged to your father. Now that your parents are gone, you should inherit their fortune. I will ask someone to draft the contract tomorrow. You'll just have to cand sign it." "I don't need it." "You do. This will be of great help for the things you want to do in the future. Very few members of the Jenkins family show their faces. Once the banquet starts, there will be quite a bit of trouble for you. It would be best if you have this with you." Saniogo had already made up his mind.
No one could compare with the status of the eldest daughter of the Jenkins family.
He wanted everything that originally belonged to her to return to her possession.
Seeing that he was so persistent, Everleigh did not refuse anymore. She picked up the two pendants and carefully examined them. They were very similar to hers.
"This pendant," "You've got one as well. Haven't you seen it before?" Saniogo asked.
Her father had left the pendant behind, so that the future generations could have a symbol of the Jenkins family as well.
Every Jenkins had one.
Setting down the pendant, Everleigh sighed softly and said, "Yes, it's at my father's place, and he has been keeping it safe all this while. He was afraid that someone was going to doharm." "Your father is right. The Jenkins family owns a lot of businesses, so more than a few people would be out to get you. Those people outside are all your immediate relatives, but there are many others who are your distant relatives. You'll be able to meet them at the banquet," Saniogo explained with a hint of joy in his eyes.
Everleigh's mouth twitched. She was not worried about that.
When she compared it...
"Uncle, how did my parents die?" She turned serious as she decided to ask him about it.
He had not expected her question. For a moment, he did not know how to answer.
"It was a plane crash." "A plane crash? How could it be so coincidental? Uncle, now that I've been recognized as a Jenkins, there are a lot of things I should know about." He lowered his gaze. It was obviously a topic he did not want to talk about. "Everleigh, it's all in the past. There's no need to mention it anymore." "Uncle, you know who did it, don't you?" She asked with certainty.

If he did not know, why would he be reluctant to talk about it? Saniogo closed his eyes, a pained expression on his face. In a low voice, he said, "If I knew, I would have destroyed that person a long tago. Unfortunately, I don't know who did it. I know that your parents' deaths weren't a coincidence. No one survived the crash, and you were lost. In order to find you, I delayed the investigation. Later on, there were sinternal conflicts within the Jenkins family, and I couldn't handle so many issues at once. I had to settle the conflict first. But I've never given up looking for you or finding the cause of your parents' death. However, the outcwas like dropping a stone into the sea." Saniogo recalled the darkness of that period as if it were yesterday. His brother had informed him when he took off and had said that he would give him a gift when he settled down. Afterwards, he had received the bad news. Everleigh was sad and angry. Someone had obviously done it on purpose. Now that she knew the truth, she would not let it go so easily.
"Uncle, can you giveall the information you had in the past, as well as everything that you've been investigating recently?" He gave her a meaningful look and hesitated for a moment. Then, he walked over to his desk and handed her the information he had prepared.
"I have no objections if you want to investigate it yourself. Take this number. This person is a private detective with a good reputation. He's the one who has been following the case all these years. Just tell him if there's anything you'd like to add. Also, if you feel like you want more help, feel free to ask Alexander. I believe that he'll be very willing to help you." Saniogo's voice was heavy, but every word he said was out of concern for her. She nodded, "I will." "Let's go eat. It's almost time." "I don't have much of an appetite." She felt tired just thinking of those people.
Undoubtedly, Saniogo knew what she meant. He did not like his two brothers very much, either. However, they were his brothers, after all, and he could not simply turn a blind eye to them. "Don't bother with them. If anyone dares to say anything to you, just telland I'll take care of it." His face turned slightly cold, and it would be a lie to say that he was not mad. Everleigh's mouth curved and a glint flashed across her eyes. "Uncle, complaining isn't my style. I just hope you can promisethat no matter what I do, you'll believe me." He froze for a moment before he quickly recovered. He laughed and said, "Of course. You're my niece. Who else should I believe if I don't believe you?" Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! She smiled, but said nothing.
Alexander, who was standing by the door, heard his father's laughter, and knew that they were having a good time. He knocked on the door before walking in.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Dad, Everleigh, the food is ready." "Alright, let's go eat together." Saniogo was happy. Now that his niece had returned, his heart was at ease.
When Everleigh was about to close the box, she saw a photo. On it was a lady with a gold dress and a widen smile. Her eyes were so clear that they looked like twinkling stars, and her black hair was scattered casually around her shoulders. She could see that the woman was a ray of sunshine. "Who's this?" Saniogo followed her gaze and looked over. "That's our younger sister, your Aunt Missha." "Where's she now?"
"She's managing the company overseas, the one that your father alive. He was preparing when he was had already invested in the project, and it couldn't be stopped, so it was handed over to her," he explained, his eyes filled with love for his sister. Everleigh nodded; she figured that their sister was not like the other Jenkins.
Her father had ssimilarities with her two uncles outside, but the lady did not.
"Let's go. Aunt Missha has been quite busy recently so she can't cback. I'm guessing she'll cback to see you when she's done," Alexander explained.
She did not mind. Sooner or later, she would get to meet her. Her onlym concern was whether she would be easy to get along with, unlike the people who were seated downstairs. Every dish on the table was Everleigh's favorite. These were the results of Alexander's investigation.
She was in the leading role that day, so it was only natural that the attention was on her.
"Ew, why are we eating this today? It smells terrible. Hurry up and take it away." Cynthia covered her mouth, acting as if she would vomit if she had to smell it any longer.
