Chapter 751 The Truth

A sad look flashed across Selena's face because her mother was someone she was most unwilling to talk to others about. Therefore, she was bewildered when Jerry asked about her mother the moment he arrived. Nonetheless, out of respect for the old man, she politely replied, "My mother passed away many years ago. I'm sorry, Mr. Murray, but I wish not to talk about her anymore."

Jerry's eyes soon darkened as they were filled with tears. Upon thinking Linda was an imposter, he assumed she was perhaps lying and that there might still be a chance his daughter was still alive. Nonetheless, his last glimmer of hope was shattered when he heard Selena's reply. Then, when he looked down, his eyes fell upon the bracelet that Selena was wearing.

After everything that happened recently, Selena didn't feel comfortable and only found peace within herself when she wore the bracelet on her wrist because that made her feel as if her mother was by her side. With his eyes on the bracelet, Jerry asked, "May I have a look at the bracelet?"

Selena raised her hand while peeking at Pierre, but the man somehow avoided her gaze. Then, she gently rubbed her bracelet and said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Murray. This bracelet is from my mother, and I' prefer to keep it to myself." For some reason, Selena was simply wary in front of Jerry.

In response, the old man sighed and told his men to bring a box to them. Then, he opened it with his blistered hands and revealed another bracelet inside. In fact, the bracelet was initially with Linda, but since she left with Jocelyn in a hurry, she left it behind in her room.

It wasn't until Admiral Evan Moody paid a visit that he found out Linda was actually an imposter. When Jerry learned that Admiral Evan Moody's daughter-in-law was searching for the bracelet, he became even more convinced that his suspicion was true.

Just as I thought!

When Selena saw the bracelet in Jerry's hand, she was instantly stunned. "Mr. Murray, are you selling the bracelet?" Selena happily said, "To be honest, this pair of bracelets used to be my mother's favorite when she was alive, but my father subsequently sold them off. I have one with me, and you have no idea how long I've been searching for the other one, which is the one in your hands. So can you sell it to me? We can negotiate the price."

Looking at Selena's expression, Jerry broke into tears and left Selena wondering. She then turned her attention to Pierre, but her husband simply wouldn't meet her gaze.

In fact, Pierre was guilty of his rudeness toward Jerry back in the hospital when he found out that he was actually Selena's grandfather. While everyone was aware of the truth, Jocelyn was the only one who still hadn't figured out what was going on.

"Don't tell me you're here to buy my bracelet, Mr. Murray, and if that's the case, I'd have to apologize because I will not sell my mother's favorite bracelet. At the same time, I hope you could grant my wish and help me honor my mother."

"My granddaughter, I'm so sorry..." Jerry felt a lump in his throat.

Selena cut him short when she heard the word granddaughter. "Granddaughter?" Selena was puzzled. "Is there some sort of misunderstanding? My mother's last name was Davis, not Murray."

In the meantime, Jerry couldn't stop shedding his tears. Despite his intimidating reputation over the years, he couldn't believe he would cry in front of his granddaughter like a child.

At the same time, Selena turned her attention to Pierre and noticed the man seemed like he had something to say.

"Jerry had a wife whose name was Cecilia Davis, and they had a daughter whose name was Jessica Murray. Cecilia's nickname was Ceci," Pierre replied.

Upon hearing her husband, Selena looked at him in disbelief shortly before she shifted her gaze to Jerry. If that's true, then everything adds up. So, Mother was really...

"My granddaughter, I'm sorry. I owe you and your mother my life..."

Jerry expressed his remorse, guilty of nearly killing his own biological granddaughter by misplacing his faith in an imposter.
