Chapter 867 Entering The Lion’s Den
“Restore Anya’s identity?” Sonia frowned. “What does this mean? Are you saying that Anya’s current identity isn’t fake, but it might be real?
Toby pursed his lips and did not reply.
However, Tom, who heard what she said, nodded and replied, “Yes, Miss Reed, you’ve hit the nail on the matter. Connor told her to change her previous identification to her current one, which also happened to be the one I’ve found before this and assumed that it had something to do with Anya.”
“Can you be more specific?” Toby asked quietly.
Tom hummed in acknowledgment and continued, “Anya’s past identity was of an orphan who grew up in a welfare house, but she didn’t go by the name Anya. Instead, she was known as Germaine Combs, a name that the welfare home director gave her. It was only later that Connor changed her name to Anya, and that was when you told me to investigate her.”
“So, you’re saying that the Deputy Chief did not change much of Anya’s identity?” Toby frowned.
When Tom heard Toby’s question, he nodded. “Exactly. But, of course, this is just what I heard from the Deputy Chief himself, although I don’t think he will lie. He was only following Connor’s orders. We can only find out more about Anya’s true identity from Connor.”
At this moment, Toby pursed lips turned into a straight line as he fell silent.
At the same time, Sonia looked over at him and said, “Who would’ve thought this would be the case?”
Initially, they thought they could learn about Anya’s identity from the Census Bureau.
They never expected the Census Bureau to only help change her name while the rest of her information was the same as Toby’s previous investigation.
In other words, they had only managed to get the name that Anya used in the past with no clue about her true identity.
The only thing they could confirm was that Anya’s relationship with Connor, the head of the Salzburg Family, was not simple.
After thinking it through, Toby nodded slightly. “Oh, well. I’ll ask Connor myself if we can’t find anything here.”
With that, he spoke into his phone again, “Alright, you can stop the investigation here. I’ll get in touch with Connor myself.”
“Alright, President Fuller,” Tom responded.
Then, Toby hung up and wanted to call Connor.
Toby had never contacted Connor before, let alone met him in person.
The relationship Connor had with Toby’s mother raised doubts within him. Hence, he had never felt the need to meet or reach out to Connor.
The only exception was to discover whether Connor was behind Homer’s death and if Connor was the mastermind behind the car accident that Toby was involved in.
At the end of the day, if Toby found out that it was indeed Connor who was behind all of these, he would want to meet Connor for the first and last time. After all, Connor was the man whom Toby’s mother had loved the most.
However, if Connor wasn’t behind this, or if there was no factual evidence, Toby would choose never to meet this man because the man repelled him.
Yet, Toby did not expect that he would have to reach out to Connor so early.
When Sonia saw the frown on his lips, she chewed on hers before asking, “Are you okay?”
“Huh?” He looked at her in puzzlement, as if he did not understand her meaning.
She then pointed at the phone and asked again, “Is it really okay for you to call Connor? I’m sure you don’t want to speak to him now, do you?”
No child would have a good impression of their mother’s lover.
Moreover, this man might be the mastermind behind his father’s death.
Naturally, Sonia was a little concerned for Toby.
When he saw the worry in her eyes, he immediately understood why she was worried. His heart softened as he replied seriously, “It’s okay. I’d have to face him sooner or later. It is just sooner than I expected. I’m also curious about how he will react when he hears my voice. Maybe I could decipher how he feels about me from his reaction.”
After all, he was the son of Connor’s love rival. If Connor hated Toby, Connor would definitely hate Homer as well. That would naturally give rise to the possibility of Connor plotting both Homer’s death and Toby’s car accident.
After all, not everyone would love everything that came with their lover’s life. Those who could love their lovers’ children were rare.
Sonia was at a loss for words when she realized that Toby was putting Connor to the test and nodded. “Alright, then. I will be here to support you, no matter what you do.”
