The old lady frowned, a look of confusion on her face. Why did the jade pendant disappear just like that? Was there such a coincidence in this world?

"Tomorrow, I will find her and ask her by myself. You can rest!" The old lady knew that if she bickered with her grandson, they wouldn't be able to come to a conclusion. She decided to personally ask Lily about it tomorrow.

The old lady stood up and left. Edwards Wayne's entire body was stiff, he actually forgot to send her off, and only when the old lady closed the door did he suddenly wake up, raised his head, and looked at Lily who had walked out from behind the curtain.

Lily was also startled, she looked at Edwards Wayne and asked: "Your grandmother just mentioned my jade pendant, does she know where my parents are?"

Edwards Wayne knew that she would have a bee in her mind, because she couldn't accept the fact that her entire family was dead.

"Lily, my grandma might have remembered wrongly. Didn't I already investigate the matters regarding your family?" Edwards Wayne walked over, gently supported her shoulders with both hands and softly consoled her.

Lily immediately shook her head. "No... Maybe my parents are still alive? What if your investigation is wrong? Your grandmother might really know the origins of that jade pendant of mine. Edwards Wayne, I really hope that they are still alive, I really wish to see them, even if there is only a slim chance.

Edwards Wayne looked at her excited face and her eyes brimmed with hope and light.

So, it turned out that Lily yearned to see her family member so much.

"Lily, now that the jade pendant has been lost, how do you expect my grandmother to confirm it?" Edwards Wayne frowned. It was obvious that there was a layer of seriousness on her face. Lily immediately sighed, "That's true. How about I describe to her tomorrow, she might have some clues!"

Hearing that she needed to be described, Edwards Wayne froze for a bit, and then, he touched her hair: "Alright, then tell my grandmother about it tomorrow, I hope that my investigations are wrong, your family is still alive, and you can meet them."

"I hope the heavens will not be so cruel!" Lily sighed, she raised her head and looked at Edwards Wayne awkwardly: "How about... Let's take a rest today. I don't have any interest now!"

All of Edwards Wayne's interest was scared away, so he nodded: "Okay, go rest early!"

"Good night!" After Lily said this in a low voice, he opened the door and went out.

Edwards Wayne looked at the door that she gently closed, his eyebrows knitted together, tonight, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep.

He had never imagined that his grandma would personally see that jade pendant.

Edwards Wayne smashed the table in frustration. He was extremely frustrated, as though there was an invisible hand that wanted to destroy his peaceful life. This made him feel extremely helpless and frustrated.

He was unable to vent his rage on anyone, and could only endure it by himself.

No!

Actually, his mother was the true source of his anger. Unfortunately, Edwards Wayne didn't know how to face his mother, who had abandoned him long ago.

After Lily's matter, Mary Ann's birthday banquet finally came to a victorious end. She received a large gift, which made her very happy, but also made her sad. The person she wanted to see the most was not here.

Mary Ann sat alone in her bedroom, her heart empty as she thought about that person.

Suddenly, her phone rang, Mary Ann walked over quickly and picked up the phone to take a look, the worry on her face immediately disappeared.

It's Leo William!

He put the phone close to his ear and heard the man's low voice, "Mary, happy birthday!"

"Is that all?" Mary Ann somewhat happily muttered: "Where are you?"

"At home!"

"Which home?" Mary Ann immediately asked again.

"The one you came to!" Leo William smiled.

"Then can I go over? I want to see you!" Mary Ann suddenly mustered her courage.

"It's better if you don't come over. You must be tired after messing around for the whole night!" Leo William said hesitantly.

"Don't you want to see me now? Today, Lily came to my birthday banquet, she's so beautiful! " Mary Ann instantly said in a sour tone.

Leo William was startled, and his tone became heavy: "Why did she go? She didn't say anything to you, did she?"

"What is wrong? You seem very afraid that she will tell me something. Are you hiding something from me?" Mary Ann immediately detected it sensitively.

Leo William's expression stiffened, and immediately consoled his in a low voice: "No, I'm not hiding anything from you!"

"Right now, I suspect that you might be with her..." Mary Ann's sweet voice carried a trace of suspicion.

Leo William was immediately stunned!

"How can you be so suspicious of me?" How much distrust did she show him?

"I'm just afraid that you'll be with her, unless you let me pass right now!" Mary Ann finally found a reasonable excuse.

Leo William was speechless. It seemed that this little thing always knew how to torture him.

"Alright, come over here!" Leo William had no choice but to agree to her request.

"Fine, wait for me!" Mary Ann was instantly overjoyed.

"Wait a minute!" Leo William's voice anxiously sounded from the side: "How could you come?"

"I'll drive myself!" Mary Ann immediately replied.

"No, did you drink tonight?" Leo William knew that she must have drunk a lot of wine during her birthday banquet.

Mary Ann insisted, "I drank just a little, I'm not drunk!"

"Wait, I'll come pick you up!" Hearing her words, Leo William did not dare to let her drive.

"Alright, I'll wait for you!" Mary Ann was instantly overjoyed. 20 minutes later, Mary Ann received a call from him, he had actually parked the car far away.

Mary Ann carried a small bag and was about to go out when her mother, Belle Ann, stopped her.

"It's so late, why are you still going out? What are you going to do?" Belle Ann stared at her sternly and asked.

Mary Ann could only laugh: "Mom, it is so late, you haven't slept yet, I'm going out to meet my girlfriends!"

"You want to go out? Alright, tell me how did this rumor come about, and who is that man?" Belle Ann's face instantly became serious.

Mary Ann frowned. She knew that her mother would ask.

"Mom, why would you believe the reports on the internet? This is just me shooting a movie, it's so boring, these reporters only know how to make things up every day. " Mary Ann explained in all seriousness. "Really?" Belle Ann frowned, somewhat suspicious.

Mary Ann was even more infuriated: "Of course it's real, look at the clothes I'm wearing, you'll definitely be able to find this in the TV drama!"

"You better be a little more obedient. How old are you? I let you to act, not let you fall in love when you are so young!" Belle Ann was so angry that she immediately lectured her.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm very obedient! Bye! " Mary Ann immediately said that sentence with a smile, then left.
