Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 205

Hiram's eyes didn't meet Rachel's. He seemed to have known the news and deliberately chosen not to tell Gavin about it.

"Rachel, as you know, there are only two big families in XH Village, yours and ours. XH Village was also the place where Landy lost her life." Gavin's eyes became vacant as he spoke. He seemed to be reminiscing about the times he had spent with his younger sister.

"Landy was supposed to stay in XH Village for only 10 days or so and go back to the US after that, but she ended up staying there for a year. We didn't worry much about it since we thought she was only a little girl who wanted to have fun.

But what we didn't know was that she had fallen in love with a man there."

Hiram suddenly cut in. "Dad, this matter hasn't been investigated yet, and there is no conclusive evidence. Let me check again. Please don't come to a conclusion so quickly."

Rachel noticed how nervous Hiram was and anticipated that it was bad news. How could such a calm man like Hiram be so nervous?

"No, I sent someone to verify it myself. It's a real clue, but for some reason, everyone kept it a secret. It is only now when the man is dead that they dare to make it public, "

Gavin said.

"Rachel, that man is none other than your father."

Rachel widened her eyes at Gavin's words.

What did he mean?

Landy had been in love with her father?

Rachel was totally confused.

She couldn't understand what he was saying.

Joanna looked at Rachel, and knew that it was difficult for her daughter-in-law to accept, she said, "Rachel, XH Village is a small village. Your father, who I knew at that time, was good-looking and well-spoken. It's no surprise that Landy, who had just become a woman, fell in love with your dad.

Landy was a smart girl, and your dad returned her feelings. The year that Landy stayed in XH Village, she was actually staying with your dad. But at that time... Well, your dad was already engaged to your mother at that time."

Joanna explained.

She knew that Gavin got upset easily, especially when it came to his sister. Just the mention of Landy could make him lose all sense of reason. So, she thought it was better for her to do the talking.

"The Rong family was also to blame. We didn't want the only daughter in the family to marry into the Ruan family and suffer, so we didn't reveal Landy's true identity to anyone.

Gavin, maybe that was God's punishment to the Rong family. If we had made Landy's identity clear, then regardless of anything else, Landy might still be alive now!" Joanna said, sighing.

"As for the details, too much time has passed, so we can't be a hundred percent sure about them. However, it seemed that in the end, your father broke up with Landy because he didn't want to betray your mother.

Landy couldn't accept it, so she jumped into the river and took her own life."

Rachel took a long time to recover from what she had just heard.

She remembered that once, at the hospital, Fannie had mentioned concealing something from the Rong family.

Had she been talking about this?

If that was the case, then although it was difficult to accept, at least what her mother had said then made sense.

Hiram said in a low voice, "Dad, many years have passed since then. Rachel is innocent. I don't want anything to hurt her."

Gavin sighed and looked away from Rachel, who resembled the man that had driven Landy to her death.
