The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

Chapter 289 – Ch. 289 Who Is Dario’s First Love?

Since there was no signal or internet in this magnificent-looking villa, Declan still didn't know about Roxy's disappearance. He suspected that his father was deliberately blocking the telephone signal in this place as if this older man wanted to prevent anyone from contacting Declan.

But why? Declan didn't know the answer.

He couldn't help but think that his mother was innocent when she left his father. Maybe… it was only his assumptions, but it might be that his mother caught his father having an affair.

Therefore his mother decided to take him away and leave his father.

But Declan still couldn't grasp why his mother left him in an orphanage.

After meeting his father and being engaged in that tense conversation, Declan reminisced about his childhood.

Where did he live? What was her mother's name? And what was his father's name?

Yet, he could remember nothing.

He was barely five when he was taken away by his mother. He lived with his mother for several days and moved around as if they were being chased by something.

Or were they being chased? Was someone after his mother?

Was that why his mother left him in the orphanage?

Declan walked to the bedroom window and saw the empty night sky.

He had no interest in looking for his mother because the woman had left him. Not only leaving him but also throwing away his newborn daughter and leaving the girl an orphan.

But, now…

"Mom, why did you do that?" he genuinely wanted to know, and when he got home, he would try to find his mother.

Knock, knock! Declan turned his head towards his bedroom door when he heard someone knocking twice.

He remembered his father was about to give him the cooperation agreement he had signed tonight. With reluctant and heavy steps, Declan walked only to open the door to his room.

But not the father he saw, but the butler who had welcomed his arrival.

"Good evening, sir. Master wanted me to give this to you."

Declan received the brown envelope containing the cooperation agreement letter.

It made him wonder, what had he come here for?

"Young master, are you truly not intrigued in looking for her?"

"Who should I look for?"

"Your sister."

Declan glanced at the butler with an unfriendly look. "Why should I?"

"I heard that the young miss is not happy with her family. Her stepfather forced her to marry another young man until the young miss ran away from home. Since then, we haven't heard from her again."

Declan snorted sarcastically at that. "She had the guts. I'm pretty sure she can survive."

"But it wasn't her fault, sir. You know that the most, don't you?"

It wasn't her fault. Declan knew that more than anybody. But he couldn't help but hate the girl for being born to a woman who made his family tear apart.

If there was Roxy by her side, what would that girl say?

'I would look for her if I were you. Protecting a little sister is the duty of an older brother. Isn't it?'

Declan gave a faint smile when he heard his fiancé's trademark voice inside his head.

"Alright. I'll look for her. Do you have any data on that wo… I mean, the girl's mother?"

"I'll give it the first thing in the morning."

Declan nodded his head and closed the door to his room after the butler left.

The butler went into his master's private room to report on the task he had completed.

"The young master has decided to find the young miss."

"Did he now," a sly smile filled with satisfaction graced Dario Gonzales' face. "I'm so excited. What is the reaction of that older man now? I want to see it in person."

The butler lowered his gaze and was lost in his thoughts as if he was thinking about something.

"It's time for me to leave," announced Dario.

"May I know the reason? Why do you seem in a hurry?"

"I underestimated my son's ability. He's smarter than I thought. He'll notice before you give him the data. I don't want to die at the hands of my son." Dario chuckle in delight when he imagines something. "I'm looking forward to seeing his murderous look, though."

"I don't understand. If you wanted the young master to follow you, why did you let him go?"

"He'll be a saver with that woman rather than be with me. I was never in the mood to call him back. But now everything is different. I won't let him marry that girl."

On the other hand, Declan opened the contents of the brown envelope to check once again the contents of the businesses partnership agreement between his biological father and his adoptive father.

He felt a little weird because he interceded for his two fathers, who became business partners. This collaboration was a trivial matter because it's only building a hotel, but why did Dario demand his father's side send someone here?

Was it true that his father wanted to meet him and used this excuse? Or did his father have other intentions?

'She was my first love, and I wished you could help me to find her.' that was what his father said to him.

And the butler also expected him to look for this unknown half-sister of his. The butler wouldn't say it on a whim. Declan felt confident that his father had sent the butler to persuade him.

If the father truly desired to find his daughter, why need his help? The older man could seek her himself, considering he could find Declan so easily.

Or… could it be that his father wanted Declan to investigate on his own and find out something he shouldn't?

Declan sighed at the thought of this. He was sure that his father purposely told him to look for his daughter. The man wanted to keep the photo of the little figure hidden among the rows of books but instead put it where he could see it.

Really, what did his father want him to know?

His sister? Or the mother of his younger sister?

Strangely, Declan felt he knew that young girl… his father's first love.

He had only glimpsed it, but he had a pretty sharp memory of remembering people's faces. Declan was sure he had met the girl… but… where?

Declan closed his eyes and started to dig into his memories of where he met girls.

No.

If the photo were taken about thirty years ago, it would mean that the young girl had matured by a lot.

Declan narrowed his search, and one woman appeared in his mind, who bore a resemblance to the young girl in the photo.

Instantly his eyes opened in surprise, and Declan felt his heart stop beating.

"Impossible!"
