Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 265

The Jones family.

The Jones family mansion was brightly lit.

Old Madam Jones was seated on the sofa in the living room with a huge smile on her face, while Mr. Garrett sat opposite her. He displayed a businesslike expression.

“Rest assured, Mr. Garrett! I’ll treat whatever you have ordered as my personal matter and take care of it.”

Joseph Garrett smiled. “Of course I trust you, Old Madam Jones. We’ve been investigating this issue for so many years, and we’ve only found out that the child had most probably been brought to Jincheng by a human trafficker back then. The rest of the clues are lost. Our searches were fruitless, thus we could only rely on others. When it comes to finding people in Jincheng, the Jones family’s services are second to none.

“I’ve personally come to Jincheng this time to attend to this matter. However, it’s still a private matter of the Garrett family, so I hope you’ll keep this a secret.

“My father has been ill for quite a while, and currently, his greatest wish is to locate the child. Therefore, regardless of whether you can find the child or not, please let me know as soon as possible. Once I have verified everything, I will relay the information to him, lest he gets excited for nothing.”

Old Madam Jones nodded.

“Naturally. Don’t worry, Mr. Garrett. If there are any updates, I’ll be sure to inform you.”

“In that case, thank you very much, Old Madam. This is the child’s photo, but it was taken when she was only a few months old, so it’ll hardly be of any use now.”

Joseph handed an old, yellowed photo to her with a disappointed look on his face.

Old Madam Jones took the photo and scrutinized it.

Although the yellowed photo was taken more than ten years ago, it was still in good condition.

One could tell that the owner of this photo treasured it very much.

Old Madam looked at it and chuckled.

“Honestly, most children look alike, but this child has rather fine features. Judging by this photo, she looks similar to Nelly when she was young.”

A middle-aged man beside her interrupted, “Mom, have you forgotten? Nell has parents. Years ago, when Cathy Morrison was pregnant with Nell, we visited her at her home. How could she be related to Ms. Garrett?”

Old Madam Jones laughed. “Yes, yes, it was just a quip.”

However, Joseph took an interest in her remark.

“Are you referring to the Ms. Jennings who sang for us at Xianshui Pavilion?”

Old Madam Jones nodded. “That’s her.”

Joseph grinned. “Actually, when I first laid eyes on her, I thought that she looked a lot like Annie, and I’m not talking about her appearance. It was her charisma and the vibe she gave off with her gaze. How old is she?”

“Twenty-five, I think!”

“Twenty-five?” Joseph raised his eyebrows.

If Annie was still alive, she would most likely be twenty-four or twenty-five.

All of a sudden, he became emotional. “Did you just say that her mother’s name is Cathy Morrison? Did all of you witness Cathy giving birth to her with your own eyes?”

Old Madam Jones was puzzled.

That time, she was not in Jincheng and did not witness the birth. She only visited Cathy when she was pregnant and held her baby after the delivery.

Old Madam was at a loss for words.

As she hesitated, a voice appeared at the doorway. “Of course, I witnessed it myself.”

Everyone looked towards the doorway and saw a middle-aged woman coming towards them.

Old Madam introduced her, “Oh, let me introduce you to my daughter-in-law, Francesca Connors. Fran, this is the Second Old Master of the capital city’s Garrett family. You may address him as Mr. Garrett.”

Francesca greeted him.

Joseph asked her hastily, “Did you witness the birth with your own eyes?”

Francesca returned a wan smile. “Yes, Cathy’s mother passed away at a young age. When Cathy was in labor, she had no close female friends to rely on. As we are family friends, and I had a child two years earlier than her, I decided to head over and I guarantee that Nell is Cathy’s daughter.”

Joseph saw how earnest she seemed and felt disappointed.
