After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Xander's Doubt
Without warning, the man's questions came at her like a steady rainfall, soft and relentless, landing lightly on her head.

Isabel felt the coolness from above, and suddenly her eyes began to sting.

Xander, why do you have to be so kind to me?

It makes me feel guilty.

In the afternoon, the sunlight was just right.

Isabel sat lazily on the swing, pulling out the pendant.

"The Nelsons ... Richie ... Am I her?"

The dream she had the night before ended right after little Leslie crawled out of the dog hole.

Little Leslie had no idea what happened to her after that.

In her previous life, when she awoke, she found herself in an orphanage.

She was unable to recall any details from the past.

Isabel had heard from the orphanage staff that they had found her near a trash bin, almost lifeless, covered in dirt, burning with fever, and on the verge of death.

They had rushed her to the orphanage, where a doctor treated her.

When she woke up, her memories of the past were a blur.

She had asked the staff, and they said they found her the day after the incident at the Nelsons' residence.

It was all starting to line up.

Only the final piece was missing.

Isabel's attention drifted back to the pendant. It had been a long time, and it seemed it was finally time to hand it over.

She was curious to find out who was searching for it.

"It can't be Richie," she thought.

She had ruled Richie out long ago, knowing that he was aware the pendant was with Xander.

What puzzled Isabel even more was the person who had issued the task. Why did they want the pendant? Was there something secret hidden inside it?
