Chapter 1040 The Photo
Zack turned around and walked out, but then he seemed to remember something. He stopped in his tracks and turned back to James.
“Oh, by the way, sir, last time you asked what Master Davies’ first love looked like, didn’t you? Peter happened to be back at headquarters last night, so I asked him to take a sneak peek at the photo that Master Davies had hidden. He took a picture
of it and sent it to me. Do you want to see it?”
As James was about to get up to look for Amelia, he heard
Zack and sat back down again.
Then he lifted his slender fingers and beckoned to Zack.
“Show me!”
Zack immediately held up his phone and handed it to James.
The photo had turned yellow, but it had been well-preserved and was not damaged.
The woman in the photo stood under a magnolia tree, facing the dappled sunlight, with a serene smile on her face.
She had a beautiful face that appeared slightly immature at the age of 18. One could still see that she was an extremely beautiful woman.
When Master Davies first saw Amelia, he was shocked and
called out to her.
At that time, James mistakenly thought that Master Davies became so excited upon seeing Amelia because Amelia looked exactly like Ashley.
But now, the woman in the photo with the name Ashley
written on it looked completely different from Amelia. They had two completely different faces.
Jocelyn had said that Amelia had a striking resemblance to
Sumasa’s before her disfigurement.
If Master Davies’ first love was Amelia’s mother, Master
Davies would definitely approach Amelia and introduce himself upon meeting Amelia.
But at that moment, Master Davies only got excited for a moment before quickly regaining his composure. He didn’t go
to Amelia or even say a word.
It suggested that Master Davies probably only knew Sumasa before she was disfigured, and their meeting was likely a
reunion of old friends.
James thought for a moment and realized that Ashley
probably just shared the same last name as Sumasa, and they didn’t have anything to do with each other.
Who was this woman named Ashley then?
“Sir…”
Zack swallowed and pointed at the photo, bravely saying,
“I feel like…this woman named Ashley looks somewhat like
you.”
Her and James’s facial features all had a striking resemblance.
Upon hearing this, James’ fingers froze on the photo, his gaze turning cold as he stared intensely at the person in the picture.
He did resemble her a bit, but so what? It was not like Master Davies’ first love had anything to do with him, right?
After James resolved his previous doubts, he became
impatient and raised his slender finger, waving it towards Zack.
“Tell Peter to be careful and not let Master Davies know that
he took the photo without permission.”
