Chapter 1127 A Member of the Joneses
It was like a certain kind of strange feeling, which gave him a slight headache when he tried to recall it.
"So, what do you think of her looks?" Hanson suddenly asked. Of course, he was asking Liam if the woman in the photo looked similar to his elder sister.
Liam looked at the photo carefully as he thought, Based on its condition, this photo was probably taken a long time ago.
Even though the woman in this photo doesn't have Anya's delicacy and arrogance, she still looks gracious.
"Yes, she looks very much alike. What's her name?" Liam asked excitedly.
Putting away his phone, Hanson calmly replied, "Roseanne Jones, Vania's mother."
Upon hearing that, Liam stumbled and fell back in his chair. As if everything had become clueless to him, his mind was in a muddle as he murmured, "It's no wonder she looks so much like her." So, it turns out to be Vanie's mother! I should have connected the dots in the first place, shouldn't I? After all, even her name shares a certain degree of similarity with Anya. Roseanne, huh… It seems she has created a new name using her nickname, Anna, which derives from Anya.
"And the man? Have you never seen him before?" Hanson frowned.
He suspected that Roseanne was a child of the Joneses.
However, he felt somewhat confused after seeing Liam's reaction.
Arguably, Roseanne's identity could be determined by the man next to her.
Therefore, he couldn't fathom why Liam couldn't recognize the man.
Liam shook his head and explained, "I can't recall because I was still young at that time."
Moreover, that matter is a taboo subject in our family. No one has ever brought it up.
Also, we will never keep a photo of that man.
This is also why there has been no news about Anya's whereabouts for so many years.
"Does William know him?" Hanson wanted to confirm his suspicion. At present, he only had this one lead, for Anya had erased everything and left no trails back then.
Since William was slightly older than Liam, Hanson figured he might know something.
Considering there was still uncertainty regarding this matter, they didn't want to alarm Alistair unless it was absolutely necessary.
"I'll call him immediately." Liam didn't want to waste even a second.
Since there was still some time before William's scheduled mealtime, Liam thought it was the perfect time to clarify this matter with him.
William rushed to the restaurant after receiving the call.
After all, locating Anya had been the Joneses' wish for many years. Hence, every family member was very cooperative in this matter.
Liam became restless while waiting for his brother's arrival.
He paced back and forth in the restaurant, sweat beaded all over his forehead and palms numbed in nervousness.
Hanson couldn't bear to see it anymore and asked, "You still can't stay calm even after so many years?"
How the f*ck can I stay calm when this is the closest I have ever gotten to the truth?!
Instead of directly answering his question, Liam asked, "Why are you still against me if you suspect Vanie is a member of our family? You even declined when I invited her to dinner."
I can still comprehend why he is against me if Vanie and I aren't related at all.
But now that there's proven to be a family tie between her and me, Hanson has no absolute reason to go against me.
Crossing his arms, Hanson looked at him with a straight face. "Because you are a man."
To him, as long as that person was a man, he could forget about courting Vania in front of him.
"But I'm her family," Liam rebuked. What the hell is going through Hanson's mind?! I will never stoop so low that I will prey on my own family member.
Hanson calmly took a sip of water. "But this matter has yet to be confirmed, which means I am still doubtful of your identity."
He wouldn't do something that wasn't in his control.
As for Liam, he was really speechless at Hanson's freakish possessiveness.
Slamming his hand on the table, he declared, "Regardless of her identity, I have acknowledged Vanie as a member of the Joneses."
I had felt a sense of familiarity when I met her long ago. Right now, after seeing the photo Hanson had shown to me, I am even more convinced that she is a part of the Joneses!
Meanwhile, Hanson wasn't worried at all whether Vania had any relationship with the Joneses. "Still, she is my wife." He put stress on his point.
It was something that no one could change. Even if Vania was indeed the child of the most beloved daughter of the Joneses, that future had no way to decide her marriage on her behalf either.
