Chapter 1049 Truth Be Told, Iâve Had Plastic Surgery Herb lowered his voice and whispered, âIn fact, my father has three siblings and one of them was an illegitimate daughter.â
There was even an illegitimate daughter. The Clark family was really quite chaotic.
Amelia felt a bit disgusted inside but still pretended to be shocked as she said, âWow, your grandfather is quite restrained. He only has four children.â
This seemed like a subtle insult to his grandfather. Herb didnât beat around the bush and continued speaking softly, âThat illegitimate daughter did something that harmed the Clark family, so my grandfather disowned her from the family tree. She was originally the second daughter of the Clark family.â
Amelia didnât understand these rankings and asked, âSo who is currently the second Miss Clark in the family?â
Herb replied, âOf course, itâs my younger aunt.â
Seeing that she was still confused, Herb raised his hand and tapped her on the head, saying, âYouâre really silly. My eldest aunt Alice is the oldest, my second aunt Ashley is the second oldest, my youngest aunt Sumasa is the third oldest, and my dad Carson is the youngest. However, we donât have a second aunt anymore, so Sumasa is the second young lady of the Clark family.â
Amelia said, âSo my motherâs name is Sumasa, and the construction company my sister set up was named after our mother. Is it in memory of our mother?â
âBesides, thereâs one more thing that even I, Johnny, didnât know. Itâs something I overheard from my grandparentsâ conversation when I was eavesdropping as a child.â
Amelia perked up her ears and leaned in closer to Herb.
âWhat is it?â
Herb said mysteriously, âAmong my fatherâs three sisters, one of them is not a child of the Clark family.â
âCould it be that Herbâs grandparents dislike my mother because sheâs not their child?â wondered Amelia.
Amelia wanted to figure it out, but she was afraid Herb would suspect her. He already thought she looked like his aunt, so it was better not to arouse suspicion. She didnât want him to know that she was the baby Skender had lost back then. Just Truth Be Told, Iâve Had Plasticâ¦
let them continue to be confused and uncertain about it.
âIâve told you all about my familyâs secrets. Can you let me take a picture of you now?â
Herb slammed the table, startling Amelia out of her thoughts.
She snapped back to her sense and glanced at Herb.
âNo way!â
After finishing speaking, she picked up the small bread on the table and left without saying anything else.
âOh, wait!â
Herb caught up and stopped Amelia.
âAmelia, Iâve told you such an important secret about my family. Can you please let me take a photo?
Once I send it to my father and get his confirmation, I wonât bother you anymore. Is that okay?â
Amelia looked up at her âsilly cousinâ who was a head taller than her and shook her head at him mercilessly.
âNo, my face is very precious and cannot be shot casually.â
Herb gritted his teeth, showing his pearly whites, and made a Truth Be Told, Iâve Had Plastic⦠crunching sound as he bit down, but then he held back his anger.
âName a price! How much for a photo? Iâll pay you.â
Amelia raised an eyebrow slightly at his persistence.
âTo be honest with you, Iâve had plastic surgery on my face. I donât look like how I used to before.â
