Corinne turned to look out the window and massaged her temples. "In other words, you got nothing out of the

trip." "No. | did get something."

Corinne's eyes lit up with hope once more. "What did you get?"

Lucas looked deeply into her eyes. "I heard Nellie Nymphaea's voice on the phone through that friend, and I'm a

hundred percent sure that's our mother's voice! | believe that there aren't any two voices the sin the world.

The timbre of the voice, the intonation, and the habitual use of the words are all the same!"

Corinne's eyes trembled. "So it's really Mom?'

Lucas nodded. "Yes, it's her."

Corinne's eyes turned red. "Mom... She's still alive."

It pained Lucas to see Corinne in such a state. He stroked her head and said, "Yes, she's still alive."

Corinne looked up at Lucas. "But why doesn't she want to see you? Does she know that it was you who wanted

to meet?"

Lucas shook his head. "No, she didn't know it was me. | asked my friend not to tell her beforehand."

Corinne took a deep breath. "You should've let her know that! You're her son; she would've wanted to meet you!"

Lucas lowered his eyes. "No. She definitely won't want to meet me."

Corinne frowned with confusion. "Why do you say that?"

Lucas sighed. ‘Over the years, I've been sending people around the world to search for the whereabouts of you

and Mom. The information is all public. Since she's still alive, she must know that | am looking for her, but she

never thought of contacting me. What's more, she deliberately hid from my people to prevent them from

discovering her whereabouts. Knowing all this, do you still think she would want to see me?"

The frown on Corinne's face deepened. "Could it be... Has Mom lost her memory, too? otherwise, why wouldn't

she cback to find US?"

Lucas shook his head again. "I don't think so. If she had lost her memory, she would no longer paint under the

pen nNellie Nymphaea, nor would she knowingly hide so that we could not find her at all."

Corinne was speechless. 'Lucas is right. If Mom lost her memory, she wouldn't paint under the pen nNellie

Nymphaea. But if Mom didn't lose her memory, why didn't she cback to find me?’

Corinne could understand why her mother did not want to go back or meet the Riveras, but she was not strictly

speaking a Rivera. She did not understand why her mother would feel like she had to hide from the world after

leaving her behind.

Lucas gently hugged Corinne and patted her back gently. "I know you really want to see Mom. She probably

hatesand the rest of the family, so | don't blher for not wanting to see me. But for your sake, | won't

give up trying to meet with her and will convince her to meet with you."

Corinne kept taking deep breaths in a bid to calm herself as she did not want to cry in front of Lucas. In the past,

she thought she had a devil-may- care attitude and was not afraid of anything. However, she was not the same

person as she was, and she cto have three worries.
