Chapter 206 Illegitimate Son
Charles nodded.
“Who is this third person?” Caleb asked with great concern.
Charles replied slowly, “I promised him that I would never reveal his identity.”
Caleb knitted his brows. “Why?”
“Because he’s my friend, but…” Charles trailed off.
“Why do you still want to hide it after what happened to Vivian?” Caleb questioned.
“Caleb, I’m even sadder than you after Vivian becomes like this. When I left, she reminded me to go back and attend her wedding!” Charles said in a deep voice.
Caleb was stumped.
Kathleen asked, “Charles, who exactly is that man?”
“Felix Morris has an illegitimate son,” Charles revealed coldly.
Kathleen was shocked that Felix actually had an illegitimate son.
“His name is Finn.” After a pause, Charles went on, “He’s the man Vivian is in love with.”
“There’s no need to delete all the information even though he’s the illegitimate son of Felix, isn’t it?” Kathleen pointed out, stunned.
“Finn’s mother is Lindsay Turner, a world-famous celebrity thirty years ago. She later married into the royal family.” Charles paused for a moment and continued, “But she was already pregnant when she got married.”
Kathleen was astounded.
Charles went on, “After Finn was born, he was rejected by the rest of the royal family. For the sake of his future, Lindsay sent him to Pollerton to study. That was how we knew each other.”
“Then what?” Caleb asked coldly.
“Then, Vivian, the belle in the community of international students, was the crush of many men, including Finn and I. However, she likes Finn, so I didn’t pester her and just silently watched over her. It wasn’t until my adoptive parents asked me to come back that I left Pollerton. We haven’t been in touch since then,” explained Charles.
“Where’s the proof?” demanded Caleb.
Charles threw him a flash drive. “There’s a recording of them seeing me off back then, which can prove that I’ve left Pollerton upon graduating from the university. At that time, Vivian was still doing fine. In addition, you can go look up my itinerary over the years. Other than the last time I went to Pollerton with Kate, I’ve never been there ever.”
Grabbing the flash drive, Caleb asked expressionlessly, “Why did Finn do this?”
Charles shook his head. “I don’t know.”
Kathleen surmised, “Could it be that he felt that Vivian was a stumbling block to his future? For example, he needed to accept a blind date or a marriage arranged by the royal family in order to gain their approval, but Vivian got pregnant at the time, so he—”
Caleb cut her off with a gloomy face, “If that was the case, I’ll definitely not let him off!”
Charles said calmly, “Finn will be in Jadeborough tomorrow.”
“Why is he here for?” Kathleen asked, surprised.
“To attend a meeting the day after tomorrow,” explained Charles.
A meeting?
“Is it the press conference of Macari Group’s Flobury?” Kathleen asked slowly.
“I’m not sure about that,” Charles answered.
It must be!
Kathleen was certain about it.
There would be no major events in Jadeborough two days later, except the press conference for Flobury.
She even overheard a discussion about it earlier on the set that day.
It was no wonder the Stewart family would secretly do something about it.
The thought filled Kathleen with anger.
“Does that mean that I’m about to see him soon?” Caleb clenched his fists.
The rage in him seemed to be out of his control.
“Charles, did Finn tell you anything?” asked Kathleen curiously.
