Chapter 127: Honeymoon? No!
"I know, but... You know this is my mom’s lifelong ambition. The result in that file would tell us if my mom’s wish is fulfilled or not. She had struggled almost all her life for this result." Helena rubbed her temples.
Vernon smiled, "Yes, that’s true. If he is really your brother, then it is good news. But if he was not, we could just continue searching for your brother. So, relax, will you?"
Even though he said that, he knew that those were just words and there was nothing that could help this situation. In fact, he was as nervous as Helena was. It was just that he was trying to hide it from her.
If it really was Merlin, he could understand why Helena never found her brother in his previous life. But if he was not her brother, then he couldn’t hold the hope of finding her brother because that was what had happened in his last life.
Suddenly he had a thought. When he ’met’ the last life’s Helena earlier, if he had enquired about her brother’s search results, it should have helped them, right?
Now he regretted not having that thought a few minutes earlier.
[Uff! His hand is shaking in mine. Clearly he is as nervous as I am but he is still trying to stand strong for me. I wonder when he grew up so much.]
Vernon heard her thoughts and was stunned. On one hand, he was shocked that she realized that he was nervous as well and that he couldn’t hide it well from her.
On the other hand, he did not know if he should laugh or cry when she thought that he ’grew up’.
He sighed to himself and opened the file.
He then placed the file between them and said, "Let’s look at it together."
Helena nodded and looked at it along with him.
