Chapter 510 Some Said He Was Dead
Adrien shook his head and said, “David disappeared later. More precisely, he disappeared after he found your mom married someone else. No one knows where he went. Some said he was dead, while others said he holed up in places where people didn’t know him. Even Jensen didn’t know where his dad was.”
Kisa pursed her lips. ‘Indeed, Jensen seldom mentioned his dad. He must have lost contact with his dad after his dad was sent abroad.‘
“I just left Calthon because of my family’s business after David was sent abroad. Things changed when I came back a few years later. I pay some attention to you because you are the daughter of an old friend, and I have been watching you all the time since I knew you were in prison.
“That day was a coincidence. I had dinner with my friends on New Year’s Eve. I happened to pass by the prison when I returned, and I heard the prison was on fire. My heart skipped a beat as I remembered you were still in prison.
“Mostly everyone in prison was evacuated when I rushed over. But you were the only missing one. I didn’t think much of it at the time. I just rushed in after putting on a wet quilt.
Kisa stayed silent and listened quietly to him narrate what happened back then.
“I still remember you fell on the ground and were bleeding badly. I took the risk to save you at the time, but I couldn’t save your child after all. When that child came out of your womb… was stillborn.”
The word “stillborn” totally defeated all of Kisa’s strength. She covered her mouth and sobbed immediately.
Adrien glanced at her. Suddenly, he took out a few photos from his wallet.
