Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 252

Yes, I know her,” Sybil’s brother said. How could they not know each other? Her every frown and smile was etched on his mind. When she smiled, he was happy. When she frowned, his heart tightened. No matter her appearance, he still felt that she was the cutest in the world. Unfortunately… “Are you… familiar with each other?” Annalise Barton could not help but ask again. If they were close, he might really know who her biological father was.

“Yes… We’re close.” The thought of her made his heart ache. They were so close that he didn’t even have the will to live. For the past 20 years, he had lived a life worse than death. If not for the fact that he still had a trace of faith in finding his son, he would not have wanted to live long ago. Just thinking about it made him experience a sharp pang of sorrow. He would rather have died without a bone marrow transplant back then than suffer for the next 20 years. “Then… Can I take your pulse?” Annalise asked. She wanted to ask, “Do you know who my father is?”

However, when she saw his pained expression, she felt that her question would be too abrupt. She thought that one could not always think about one’s matters. She had to consider that she had come here to treat someone. As for asking about her biological father’s whereabouts, she would do so when they were familiar with each other. Lee Xander wanted to refuse her. How could he let his love rival’s daughter treat him? However, she was still Heather Barton’s daughter! Even though she was so determined when she left, he still loved her to the core. Therefore, he loved anything related to Heather, even if Annalise was his love rival’s daughter.

“Okay!” he said. Sybil Xander was both heartbroken and happy to see him like this. Annalise immediately sat at the edge of the bed to take Lee’s pulse. Lee wanted to stare at Annalise, but he was worried that he might scare her. He forced himself to look away, his gaze averted. Pretending to be nonchalant, he asked, “Is your mother all right?” “Brother!” Sybil panicked. Lee was stunned for a moment before he thought of something and felt a sharp pain in his heart. His eyes were fixed on Annalise. He wanted to hear Annalise’s negative answer.

However, he heard Annalise say dismally, “My mother is no longer around.” Buzz- Lee felt as if his entire world had collapsed. “How did she pass away?” He felt an indescribable rage. If he had known that she would not be around, he would have tied her to his side even if he had resorted to force. “My mother died in a car accident.” Annalise’s heart tightened at the mention of her mother. She tried to remain calm. At the thought of her mother, she would feel a strong sense of love. Even if she could not remember what happened when she was young. But she knew that her mother loved her. If it weren’t for her mother, she probably wouldn’t have lived until now.
