Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 1017

“Later, when my mother grew up, she went out to make her own way in the world and returned with me. My adoptive grandparents never heard her mention finding her birth parents.”

Mrs. Jones Sr. was filled with regret, crying, “Her adoptive family… how did we not think of that? If we had just asked Wilma for those details from the start, we wouldn't have been so lost when we were looking for her later.”

From their explanation, Anastasia learned that when her mother, Cecilia, had found her birth parents, she hadn’t told the Jones family much about the Brennans, likely because she was still wary of them at the time.

After returning to Fairhaven, she also hadn’t mentioned the Jones family to the Brennans. Something must have happened that forced her to leave the Joneses secretly before they could formally acknowledge her, even making her cut off all contact.

She probably hadn't wanted to burden her adoptive parents, so she never told the Brennans what she had experienced while she was away. This was why, after she was murdered, the Brennans knew nothing of the circumstances and had no leads to find the killer, while Jacob had been just as clueless when he tried to find her after she disappeared.

Thinking about this, Anastasia realized that the event that had forced her mother to leave must have been incredibly significant.

But with no clues for now, she set the thought aside.

Once Anastasia’s heritage was clear, Elder Mrs. Lancaster asked, “So, does the Jones family intend to formally welcome Anastasia back?”

Mrs. Jones Sr. held Anastasia’s hand tightly and smiled. “She’s my only granddaughter. Of course we want her back in the Jones family.”

Mr. Jones Sr. added with satisfaction, “The Jones family has a huge business empire. This boy Colby has no interest in it, and Rena can’t manage it properly. With a granddaughter, the Jones family finally has a successor!”

Anastasia looked over in surprise.

She hadn't expected Mr. and Mrs. Jones Sr. to decide to make her their heir after just meeting her for the first time.
