Chapter 2206
If a person had died more than 20 years ago, they would never again walk the world of the living no matter how powerful Samuel thought he was.
Malcolm sighed and looked at Luna and Joshua apologetically.
“My father is just desperate to save my grandmother; that’s why he came up with these lies. I—”.
“I’m not lying,” interjected Samuel before Malcolm could finish. He then looked at Luna and Joshua and bowed to them.
“A priest should not lie, and I am not lying.”
He mustered a small smile as he stared at the shocked Luna and Joshua.
“Remember the two rings you talked about that contained video chips? You thought I was the one who made it after Lucy died, but it wasn’t me.”
Samuel shifted his gaze to stare forward as he added indifferently, “The two rings were made by Lucy herself. I’m sure Joshua knows that she was a jewelry maker.”
Joshua furrowed and looked at Samuel, puzzled.
“It doesn’t make sense.”
If Lucy did not die back then, she would have gone looking for Charles or gone back home to look for Granny Lynch, judging by her personality. Samuel’s story did not seem to add up to that.
Moreover, if she had the time to make the two rings, why did she not return home? If she did not die, where did she go?
“Should I choose my beloved husband, or should I choose my mother who killed my husband’s brother? I can’t choose, and… I don’t want to face that nightmare again. I strongly believe that there is a reason that my brain erased my memory.
“I want to archive these two videos. When either the Landry family or the Lynch family wanted to know the truth, they could unravel it.
“You can say that I’m weak or irresponsible, or you can even hate me…but I just want to live the life I have now.” Reminiscing back on Lucy’s exact words, Samuel sighed.
“That’s why I secretly exchanged one of the rings with the original one that Lucy gave to Jim. I wanted to give the other ring to someone from the Lynch family, but I failed to contact anyone.”
Then, he looked at Luna.
“One year ago, when I met Luna in the Quinn mansion, I gave the ring to her because she was desperate to find out the truth about what happened.”
