Chapter 95 Revenge
Swanstrom's eyes were downcast and her long lashes hid all the emotions in her beautiful eyes, leaving Khalid unable to guess what she was thinking.
Just when Khalid thought Swanstrom wouldn't talk, she suddenly looked up and said, "Revenge."
"What?" Khalid froze, thinking he had heard wrong.
Swanstrom looked out the car window at the ever-receding view and said faintly, "I'm back to help avenge my mother's death."
"Revenge?" Khalid raised an eyebrow in dismay, then it dawned on him, "Wow, you mean Mrs. Gardner ...... no, I should say, Young Lady of Brooks family. I heard your mom killed herself from depression, you don't think it was suicide?"
"Definitely not!" Swanstrom said categorically, "I don't remember anything from my childhood, but some fragmentary memories are still there. And there are a lot of things that point to my mom definitely not committing suicide. For example, once my mom died, the Brooks family became the Gardner family. Also, I can't find any trace of my mom ever living there at home at all ...... I can be sure that my mom definitely didn't commit suicide, but he killed herself."
Khalid, with deep eyes, said, "Who do you suspect? Your father?"
Swanstrom nodded and shook his head: "I'm not sure if he did it, or if my Auntie Taylor did it. Or maybe they both had a hand in it! I'm still looking into it, and when I find out, I'll make the killer pay!" Khalid nodded, "No wonder you said you didn't have time. So if it turns out your dad did it, what are you going to do?"
Swanstrom said coldly, "Do what you need to do."
She will never show mercy!
"I got it." Khalid looked to Swanstrom and said, "I still say, if you need any help, just call me. I don't have my business card, but you have my cell phone number, just call me." Swanstrom drops his eyes: "...... Thanks."
I don't know why, but Khalid said so, and she suddenly felt a sense of reassurance in her heart.
It's as if ...... has found the security of being here.
"Oh, yes." Khalid said, "The Gardner Group's partnership with our company, do you want me to cancel it?"
Swanstrom froze, puzzled, and asked, "I thought you said you were going to cancel?"
"That depends on you." His eyes are heavy, but there seems to be a faint gentle wave of light under his eyes.
Swanstrom's heart warmed and he said, "Call it off. maddison is too much of a nuisance and I want her to keep her mouth shut for now."
"Got it." Khalid nodded, "If you need to keep me on board, call me."
Swanstrom looked deep into Khalid's eyes and suddenly had a lot to say to him.
But when the words came to my lips, I only managed to stifle a sentence, "Thank you."
Khalid feigned impatience and pulled out his ears, "Say thank you again, I don't want to help you."
Swanstrom couldn't help but laugh.
All she wants to do is get to the bottom of it and avenge her mother's death and grow the Brooks family again. And before that, she didn't want to have too much socializing, lest she bring trouble to the friends she made.
But now, she suddenly felt that it seemed good to have Khalid as a friend.
Soon, Gardner Manor was almost there.
Swanstrom got out of the car at the bottom of the hill so as not to arouse suspicion.
Khalid looked at her deeply, his thin lips moved and spoke, "I don't know if you listened to my previous advice, but if you have the chance, you should go for a paternity test. If another hospital is not convenient, you can call me."
He said, making a gesture of making a phone call.
Swanstrom nods, closes the car door and watches Khalid leave.
Maddison arrived home a few minutes before Swanstrom, and as soon as she got home, she went to Taylor and cried.
