“Huh?” Half of the bun in Lauren’s hand fell on her nightdress. “How is this possible? I’ve seen their family photos in the living room at Ruby’s house. That person is Ruby’s father.”

Lauren and Franklin looked at each other. In an instant, Lauren recalled the melodramatic scenes in the eight o’clock TV series.

The reason why Ruby was so familiar with Samuel was that he was her biological brother.

Lauren was shocked by this discovery.

Franklin took out all the photos that had Samuel’s father in them and put them aside.

“It’s better if Ruby doesn’t see these photos. After all, this is her private matter.”

Lauren nodded and looked at the photos. Although the handsome man in the photos looked to be in his forties, it was not difficult to tell that he must have had a different style when he was young.

She found it hard to imagine that such a man would actually be two-timing.

Lauren shook her head. “As expected, you can’t judge a book by its cover.”

“But Rene and Samuel have both passed away. What about their parents? Why hasn’t Ruby’s father visited her for so long? I’ve seen her family photo before. Both Ruby and her parents looked very happy in the photo.”

Franklin pinched his eyebrows.

“I don’t know the details. After graduating from high school, I rarely saw Samuel’s parents. I only saw them once at Samuel’s memorial, but…Samuel’s mother also committed suicide a few days after the memorial.”

Samuel’s mother also committed suicide?

“If that’s the case, then this family really has completely broken down,” Lauren said with regret.

Franklin stared at the stack of photos that he had picked out and placed aside. “I’m afraid it had already broken down before this. It was just that I didn’t hear about it. I’m sure Samuel doesn’t know about it either.”

So, Ruby had befriended Rene…

Lauren did not want to maliciously speculate about Ruby. However, it was really too much of a coincidence. Rene and Samuel definitely did not know that they had the same father as Ruby.

‘But why does Ruby like Samuel and Rene so much? Logically speaking, shouldn’t Ruby hate them?’

‘What does Ruby’s mother, Susan, think about this matter? Did she know that Ruby was a good friend of Rene and Samuel?’
