Chapter 1557

Lucas nodded. “That’s right. I’ve already asked my friend to set up a meeting.

I’m going to fly over to Molomia to meet her soon, so I’ve come to ask you whether you’d like to join

me.”

“Yes! Of course I’d like to join!” said Corinne without hesitation. However, she suddenly remembered

something, and…

Lucas could tell what Corinne was worrying about. He patted her head and said, “You’re worried about

the kids, right?”

Corinne sighed and nodded. “Yeah. I mean, it’ll be a hassle to bring them with me, but I’m going to

worry nonstop about them if I don’t. And now…”

She suddenly stopped talking, and Lucas knew why.

She was afraid she would lose Jeremy again if she flew away to Molomia.

“You should stay if you have so many concerns. I’ll go there first. Who knows?

The art teacher might not be our mother.” 1 Lucas patted her head lightly again.

Corinne looked up at him. There was no doubt that she wanted to go. No matter what the outcome

was, she would still like to meet the art teacher.

“Is it possible to ask the art teacher to come here? I’ll foot all of her expenses, of course,” said Corinne.

Lucas shook his head. “My friend said her art teacher would never agree to fly out of the country. She’s

not even willing to meet strangers. The only way for US to meet her is to go to my friend’s house since

she didn’t tell her art teacher that we’ll be there, too. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone.”

Corinne frowned. “Then…”

Lucas understood what she was feeling at that moment. “Like I said, you should stay here if you have

so many concerns. I’ll go meet her first. No matter what the outcome is, I’ll take a photo of her for you,

okay?”

“Please give me more time to think about it. When do you plan to leave for Molomia?”

“Tomorrow morning.”

“Okay. I’ll give you an answer before midnight tonight.”

“Sure.”

“Mister Lucas, no matter what, thank you for coming to tell me the first instance you received the

news,” said Corinne sincerely.

Lucas smiled bitterly. “What are you talking about? We’re siblings, and this concerns our mother. It’s

only natural I’d tell you the first thing I received news from my friend. Corinne, when are you going to

stop being so formal with me?

When are you going to see me as your brother?”

Corinne’s emotions were still all over the place. She really did not have the bandwidth to think about

whether she wanted to accept Lucas as her brother.

“I still have some work to do. You should head back to work too, Mister Lucas.

I’ll give you a call tonight after I’ve made up my mind.”

“Oh, alright. I’ll be waiting for your call,” said Lucas helplessly.

Corinne got out of the car and walked back to the building thoughtfully.

Edmund closed the car door and turned to make sure Corinne had made it back safely to the building

before getting into the front passenger seat.

“Mister Lucas, do you think Miss Corinne will go to Molomia with you?”

Lucas shook his head. “Nope, I don’t think she will.”

Edmund nodded. He did not think she would either.

After all, Corinne still had her kids to think about. She would never feel at ease leaving them at home

while she flew to Molomia.

That was the biggest adjustment she had to make after being a mother. She could never come and go

as she pleased anymore.

“Mister Lucas, your friend, Miss Yvette… She said that her art teacher is quite a private person, so she

might not be willing to meet with you. Are you sure you want to leave first thing tomorrow morning?”

“I don’t care if she’s willing to meet with me or not, but I sure as well will meet her. It’s been so many

years since my mother went missing, so nothing’s going to stop me from finding out whether the art

teacher is really her!”
