Chapter 366 He Concealed the Truth

“Your grandmother’s second uncle.” Howard looked around and, seeing nobody else around, he continued, “Because she disappeared with her second uncle, there have been many unpleasant rumors circulating about them, like elopement and incest. The Songos even issued a warning that they would hold those who gossiped about it responsible. But I’ve always believed that your grandmother isn’t that kind of person.”

Cecelia was shocked by the news and nodded. “Okay, Howard. Thank you for telling me!”

As those several people left the archive and got into the car, Cecelia contemplated what she had just learned about.

She asked, “My grandmother’s second uncle is Alfred’s father, right?”

“Yes,” someone responded.

“Did he actually disappear with my grandmother? I’ve never heard of this before, and Alfred never told me about it. Instead, he said that my mother eloped with someone else.”

Cecelia analyzed the situation and became even more certain that Alfred had concealed all the truths.

Remington chimed in, “I can understand. He wouldn’t spread rumors about his own father. The Songos value their reputation a lot. They would never let such rumors spread.”

Cecelia nodded. “But I’m sure there was nothing going on between my grandmother and her second uncle. She loved my grandfather, Allen.”

“Yeah. There must be another hidden story. We need to continue investigating. Perhaps only by uncovering everything can we find clues about your mother’s whereabouts,” said Remington.

Cecelia responded, “You’re right. My mother’s disappearance is definitely part of the conspiracy. When you and Kevin have the chance, please check out the Songo family’s buildings in secret and see if there are any hidden secret rooms or the like.”

“Okay,” Remington replied.

The next stop for them was the home of Spencer, the former private lawyer for the Songo family.

Cecelia had already found out Spencer’s residence with a private detective’s help. It was located in a quaint town called Marinatown on the outskirts of Porema.
