Chapter 385: Chapter 385

Eleanor Sterling listened to the conversation between the two, her eyes filled with bewilderment, and her mind buzzing.

Countless thoughts raced through her mind.

Her mother was once Warren Hawthorne’s fiancée?

Warren Hawthorne also helped her get into school?

No! She was the top scorer; getting into school wasn’t difficult, so Warren Hawthorne didn’t help her.

Suddenly, Eleanor thought of Faye Sterling.

Back then, because of a recommendation letter issue, Faye missed the exam, but the next day she successfully enrolled and even studied under Zion Sheffield.

So it was Faye who got Warren Hawthorne’s help?

But why would Warren help Faye? They shouldn’t know each other.

Earlier, Mrs. Hawthorne mentioned the daughter of her mother...

Eleanor’s eyes suddenly narrowed; the keepsake Rosalie Ray gave her was fake, and the real one was taken by Faye!

Eleanor was filled with anger; she knew Rosalie wouldn’t be so kind as to return the keepsake to her.

It turned out that because of the Hawthorne Family, she gave the keepsake to Faye to cling to them.

Warren must have seen Faye with the keepsake at some point, mistakenly thinking she was the daughter of his fiancée, which led him to help Faye.

Eleanor figured out the sequence of events and quickly understood the relationship.

From what Mrs. Hawthorne said earlier, she had a hunch that Warren Hawthorne could be her biological father.

Thinking of this possibility made Eleanor’s heart tighten.

The matters between her mother and the Hawthorne Family might need to be clarified by asking her grandmother.

"Miss Sterling, thank you for caring about Stella. Our family needs to handle some private matters. May I see you out?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novᴇlfire.net

A voice came from behind; it was Silas Hawthorne.

Knowing it was inappropriate to stay, Eleanor nodded, "No need, I can leave on my own."

Silas didn’t insist and softly said, "Then I’ll see you out."

Following that, Silas escorted Eleanor to the door.

After thinking for a moment, Eleanor immediately took a taxi to the Jennings Family. The thought of her biological father was occupying her mind; she needed to find out the truth.

After seeing Eleanor off, Silas returned to the Hawthorne Family home, where the quarrel between Warren and Mrs. Hawthorne had ceased.

Warren spoke, "Bring the young lady down."

"I’ll go," Silas offered.

He went upstairs to the guest room where Xander Lawson was still lying down, and Stella Hawthorne sat silently beside him.

Her mind was a mess, not expecting the matter to be discovered and unsure of what her parents would do.

Silas entered and gently said, "Stella, Dad wants you downstairs."

Stella stood up, looking at Silas with hesitation, "Brother, are Mom and Dad very angry?"

Smoothing her hair, Silas gently replied, "This isn’t your fault; they won’t blame you. Go on."

Hearing this, Stella felt relieved and, with a sigh, went downstairs.

Silas looked at Xander with a cold and somber expression.

Xander struggled to sit up and respectfully bowed his head, "Young Master."

After looking at him for a moment, Silas spoke, "If you want to marry Stella, it’s impossible with your status as a bodyguard."

Xander was shocked and looked up at Silas.

He... he thought, with Silas’s doting on Stella, he would want to kill him after knowing this.

But now Silas calmly looked at him and said this.
