Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Xaviera, I’m back
Caleb was taken aback by his sudden affectionate wife, a gentle smile on his face, “Xaviera, I’m back.”
Xaviera indeed didn’t expect Caleb to come back so suddenly, she thought he would get sick or encounter some opportunity, but he just woke up after a nap.
Caleb gestured Steve to leave and asked in a low voice: “Have you known for a while that… he’s not me?”
Xaviera choked up a bit: “Of course I know, you and he are different.”
Generally speaking, the other personality within would be different from the original personality, but Caleb’s second personality was somewhat similar to him, with their tone and expression quite alike. As the person closest to him, Xaviera could still discern the difference.
Caleb spoke slowly: “In my childhood, I lived in Maple House, which was dark and cold. I knew I was poisoned and that darkness caused my blindness, so I was afraid of the dark. Once I lost my memory and forgot about the poison, so I wasn’t afraid of the dark anymore.”
Xaviera seemed to understand. The other personality of Caleb was just his confused self. Because of their different memories, their characters differed.
There was the strong, darkness-fearing Caleb, and the emotionless, fearless him, but both were still him.
Actually, Caleb didn’t understand why the other personality suddenly appeared, persisted for a week, seemed to adjust to his body, yet quietly disappeared.
The man turned and went to his study, pulled out an old box from the drawer, which contained a yellowed piece of paper. The writing on it went from crooked to neat and sharp, reflecting the writer’s growth. Over the years, they had communicated through this paper.
Caleb paused for a moment and then wrote a sentence on the paper.
…
The Russell house.
Frederick threw the report to the ground, his eyes filled with resentment.
Monica looked puzzled: “Could she really be Nidya?”
Frederick’s face darkened: “Impossible. Nidya was kind and timid back then, she was very close to Nina, and the sisters slept together every night. They never fought, so when Nidya decided to leave with her father, Nina cried for a long time.”
“After Nidya left, they communicated frequently, almost every day. I don’t believe a person’s character could change suddenly and become enemies with her close sister!”
“Moreover, Nidya promised us that she would come back. Who knew that when we went to pick her up, she suddenly changed her mind and kicked us out.”
“Since then, she has been like a changed person. Nina called her many times, but she never answered. Later, Nina gave up and we severed all ties.”
Monica: “Actually… I find it strange too. When I met Nidya as a child, she was mature and polite despite her young age. She is completely different from who she is now. Today’s Nidya has nothing in common with her, apart from her face and DNA.”
Frederick, filled with murderous intent, said, “If she’s not Nidya, she could fake that face. But how can she fake the DNA?”
Monica didn’t understand either. The Luke and Russell families were old friends, and she married Frederick after growing up. She had a good relationship with all the Russells and treated Nidya as her family. At this moment, she felt worried – if this Nidya Hughes was a fake, where was the real Nidya?
Actually, faking a face isn’t easy, and it was even more unrealistic for Nidya, a child at that time, to have plastic surgery. Plus, Nidya Hughes’s face didn’t have any signs of surgery.
Monica paused and suddenly said with a start, “Frederick, do you think it’s possible that someone switched the DNA data? Although it’s unlikely, but…”
“Or there’s another possibility: that person’s face was originally identical to Nidya’s, and she assumed Nidya’s identity.”
Frederick shuddered, as if struck by lightning, he frowned, “Don’t spread rumors about this. I’ll have someone keep an eye on the Campbell family. There might be clues.”
Monica nodded and asked: “What about Jeremy Campbell wanting to divorce Nidya Hughes, are you going to interfere?”
Frederick answered without hesitation: “That’s the Campbell family’s business. I don’t need to interfere. Since they want a divorce, let them have it. It will save Xaviera from being troubled by Anna and Nidya.”
He had a feeling that the mystery that had plagued the Russell family for many years was about to be solved.
