Skipped At The Altar, Taken By His Uncle novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145

Whitney saw Klein’s serious face and couldn’t help but ask. “Do you know him?”

“No,” Klein answered calmly.

Still, he had a bit of a lead on where to start digging.

No family would just drop 30 million dollars as a wedding gift. Even if someone did, there was no way they’d do it secretly

With that thought, Klein suddenly said, “When are we going to visit Mom’s grave? Have you picked a time yet?”

Whitney was genuinely surprised that he was the one to bring it up.

“How about this Saturday?” she suggested.

Saturday was her day off, and it happened to be her mom’s birthday.

She was probably the only one who still remembered her mom’s birthday in the world.

‘Saturday it is,” Klein said.

When Taylor got back to the hotel, he was feeling pretty annoyed.

He called Harry. “What’s up with Klein? Is he crazy or something? I offered him 1.5 billion dollars, but he turned me down

Harry paused for a moment. “1.5 billion for what project?”

That new resort they’re developing,” Dustin replied.

Taylor, the Harris Group isn’t hurting for money. Dropping 1.5 billion like that just makes it look like you’re trying to make a scene, not actually invest,” Harry said.

Taylor was speechless.

He just wanted to give his niece Whitney some cash and let the Harris family know she got someone in her coches he’d let them mess with her.

It seemed giving away money was way harder than he thought

fcin looked at the photo on the tombstone and could see some resemblance to Taylor from the other day

Whitney had inherited about sixty percent of her mom’s best features, with the rest from Samuel

“Mom, it’s me, Klein Harris. I’m here to pay my respects,” Klein said.

He bowed deeply, showing his respect.

Whitney crouched down and started talking to her mom.

“Mom, I did my best to make up for what happened to you twenty years ago. That man wasn’t worth your love. Mom. I’m doing well now. I’m all grown up and can protect myself,” she said softly.

Whitney didn’t say much more. There were just some things that couldn’t be put into words.

She just wanted her mom to find peace in heaven.

As they were leaving, Whitney spotted a figure heading up the hill and took another look over her shoulder.

Klein noticed too, his eyes narrowing slightly. “Let’s go.”

Whitney nodded and looked away.

Every spring, it had always been Whitney’s grandma, Samuel’s mother, who took her to visit her mom’s grave. Her dad Samuel only came the first year. After that, he never showed up again.

That was exactly why Whitney couldn’t stand him.

As her grandma got older, she started coming by herself.

She often wondered; ‘If I’m gone one day, will anyone still remember Mom?’

Mom had broken off with her parents long ago. After all these years, Whitney had no idea if they were even still around

I wonder if they even remember they once had a daughter, Whitney thought to herself.

Laura’s case got complicated again, and the lawyer who was supposed to represent her backed out at the last min

Half a month went by, and still, not a single defense lawyer wanted to touch her case.

Whitney figured Klein must’ve had a hand in it. But when she asked, he just shrugged it and sad nothing

ein thought for a few seconds, and then let it go.

After just a few minutes, Whitney saw Laura. The elegant lady she’d remembered now looked years older

Laura looked calm as she said, “Oh, you came.”

Whitney raised her eyebrows and said. “Well, what do you want to talk about?”

Laura smiled. “You’re smart. If your mom had been even half as sharp as you, she wouldn’t have met such a tragic end

“Just like your mom, I was naive too. Men like him are never worth trusting your whole life to. Samuel knew everything. b he just kept quiet,” Laura said, her voice cold.

“Why else do you think I was able to switch your mom’s meds?”

Whitney clenched her fists, trying to keep her cool. “Anything else?” she asked.

Laura had no intention of confessing everything. She just wanted to drag Whitney down into the misery with her.

But seeing Whitney’s straight face, Laura felt even more bitter.

“That old woman you respected and loved so much? She knew everything too! Why do you think she was always so nice to you? Whitney, she was just trying to make up for what her son did, you know?” Laura taunted.

Whitney’s face finally darkened.

Whitney’s eyes flashed with anger. “Don’t you dare slander my grandma!”

‘Slander? I’m not slandering her at all,” Laura scoffed. “She knew everything, but there was nothing she could do to stop it Do you really think she could send her own son to prison?”

‘She never loved you best. Her son was always her favorite! She only treated you well because she felt guilty!” Laura spat

Were all the kindness and care from the family member I once respected and trusted so much fake? Whitney wondered, a cold ache spreading in her chest.

It felt like something inside her was falling apart, bit by bit.

‘See’ You’re still way too innocent. Look at you, always at odds with everyone just because of your grandma Bu were never the most important person,” Laura mocked.

“That’s enough” Whitney snapped, her voice sharp.
