A Love Trap novel Chapter 841

Looking up, Chant noticed Ashley was unconscious in Andrew's arms. This terrified him to the core. Putting down the book in his hand, he stood up and asked worriedly, "What happened to Ashley?"

"She is fine. Nothing to worry about. It has been a long day so she passed out. Would you please take care Richard and Fabio?" Andrew resorted to lying. It had indeed been a long day and he didn't have the energy to narrate today's events.

"Well, of course," Chant said but he wasn't satisfied with Andrew's reply.

After Andrew got his assurance, he went upstairs with Ashley in his arms. He didn't want to waste any time talking.

Chant gaped at his receding figure, trying to understand what exactly happened.

But he knew Andrew would take good care of Ashley. As long as she was with him, he had nothing to worry about.

"Great Grandpa!"

"Great Grandpa!"

The moment Richard and Fabio stepped into the room, they saw Chant and greeted him.

"My boys are here!

Can you tell me what's wrong with your mother? She seems ill. What happened?" he asked, trying to extract information from the kids.

Fabio pursed his lips, indicating he was equally astonished about everything that had happened today.

But looking at Richard, Chant realized he knew something. Taking a deep breath, Richard spilled the beans. "Mommy saw my little sister today. But some other man snatched her away. Seeing this, Mommy became so sad and finally passed out." Once the words came out of him, pin-drop silence ensued.

After a few seconds, Chant broke it by asking, "Sister? What are you talking about? You don't have a sister." Chant was confused. He couldn't understand what rubbish Richard was speaking.

Even Fabio turned to look at Richard, trying to decipher his words.

Richard looked at Chant, dumbfounded. He had thought his great grandfather knew about it. But it seemed that his great grandfather was as confused as Fabio.

Richard found himself in a dilemma.

He thought to himself, 'Mommy and daddy didn't tell great grandfather about this. Now that I have revealed their secret, will they be mad at me?'

Chant continued to stare at Richard, waiting for a reply. He couldn't help but wonder what was going on in this child's mind.

'Is there something I don't know about Ashley and Andrew?' he couldn't help but wonder.

Then Chant stared at Richard. "Richard, what happened? Just tell me. Don't worry. Your daddy and mommy won't scold you," he said as if he had read the child's mind.

Richard nodded and looked at Fabio.

Slowly, he began, "Mommy gave birth to twins, a baby girl was born along with Fabio. However, two days after thier birth, she was taken away by someone."

Richard was only five years old when this incident happened. Yet it had managed to make a deep impression in his mind.

Besides, Ashley had specially asked Richard not to mention this in front of Fabio. She said it would bring him grief.

But the truth had finally come out today.

Richard wondered whether he had made a grave mistake by breaking that promise. But now that he had done it, there was no turning back.

Chant quietly listened and then said, "So, the little girl named Dany, who came to our house to play, is your sister?"

Richard was not sure but from the way Ashley reacted, he thought it was the case.

"Yeah, she has to be our sister. I heard from mommy there is a mole on the right side of Fabio's ear. It turns out a similar one was spotted on our little sister's left ear the day she was born.

Today, mommy spotted a similar mark behind Dany's left ear which prompted her to believe Dany is our sister.

And due to this, mommy had a quarrel with Dany's daddy. If Dany wasn't my little sister, my mother wouldn't have done that," Richard finished.

Chant frowned and thought, 'Why didn't anyone mention this issue to me?

How dare that person steal the child of the Lu family?

I will teach that person a lesson! Wait and watch!'

As for Fabio, he looked at Richard in disbelief and asked, "Brother, is it true? Is Dany really my twin sister?"
