Vela made up her mind and no longer hesitated. She pleaded with Galen, “Ghost doctor, I’ve taken a huge risk telling you this information. Please don’t tell anyone that I told you, okay?”
“Fine, fine,” Galen replied impatiently as he took out his phone and called.
It was easy to confirm the authenticity of the number Vela had provided, don’t forget that Galen’s real identity was that of a world-class hacker. In just a few seconds, he had pulled the identity of the owner of this number from the operating system.
Sure enough, this string of numbers was indeed used by Julie herself. It was even her private number, she’d been on the phone with Vela for the past few days.
Once he got the words out of Vela’s mouth, Galen was relieved. He put away his phone and got up to leave.
Seeing that Galen was about to leave, Vela quickly said in a fawning manner, “Ghost doctor, can you leave an address? I’ll bring my daughter to visit you another day!”
Seeing Vela’s fawning and calculating gaze, Galen realized that Vela had wanted to get him because of his special identity as the ghost doctor.
What a greedy old woman! Galen rolled his eyes, waved his hand, and walked out.
Ever since I’d heard the key conversation between Galen and Vela, I’d felt uneasy. I walked to a quiet safe corridor and waited for Galen to come out.
After five years, I finally heard news about my son’s whereabouts, I was actually worried about what I would gain and lose from this. I was looking forward to finding my son, but I was also afraid that this was just a lie from Vela and her daughter.
Galen sighed at Luna, who was frowning and looking very uneasy.
He had known a while ago that Luna’s son was Noelle. He had only helped Luna deal with Vela this time to find out the whole story.
However, he had forgotten that Luna was someone who had been kept in the dark and worried about her son. Now that she suddenly heard that her son might be in Julie’s hands, he didn’t know how worried Luna was.
Galen couldn’t bear to see Luna being led around by the nose again. After debating with himself for a moment, he decided to reveal the truth that Noelle was her son.
“Luna, I need to tell you—”
However, just as Galen opened his mouth, Luna’s eyes suddenly lit up. She interrupted him. “Galen, since Julie stole my son and Julie has a child with Alpha, could that child be my son?”
Galen froze, then cursed inwardly.
Luna’s guess was too accurate! That’s right, Noelle is your son!
Just as Galen thought that Luna had deduced the truth on her own and was about to go get Noelle back, she suddenly became depressed.
I suddenly remembered what had happened. Back then, my baby Nicole and baby Winnie had told me that they had met the little boy next door, Noelle. They had also learned about his mother, Julie, who had been abusing him.
And it was on that occasion that I went to the Louis Hotel out of compassion to rescue poor Noelle.
And if Noelle was my son, then it was impossible for Nicole and Winnie, who were triplets, not to recognize Noelle. But they’d met Noelle and hadn’t reacted, that could only mean that Noelle wasn’t actually my son.
My hopes plummeted, and I muttered my deduction to Galen.
After hearing Luna’s deduction that Noelle was her son, Galen was already in a mess. He was so confused that he did not know what to say.
