Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 1058

Solo felt as if his mind had gone completely blank, and he felt a little unsteady on his feet.

He turned away in shock, not quite sure who or where he should be looking, or what he should do at this moment.

After a brief silence, Nora asked, "What's your son's name?"

The lady answered, "Oh, my son? He's a really tall and handsome chap! His name is Marcus, and he's a police officer. Do you guys know each other?"

Marcus?

Though Nora was puzzled, she did find the name somewhat familiar.

In contrast, it was Solo who suddenly understood what was going on. He stared at the lady in front of him in disbelief and then suddenly took a step back, his face turning even paler than before.

Nora, who detected his unusual reaction, looked at the lady again and asked, "Ma'am, has your son been staying here all along?"

"Yeah!" The lady smiled and said, "Shh, keep it down, my son is asleep. If you're looking for my daughter-in-law, how about I give her a phone call for you?"

Nora nodded.

The lady then closed the door.

Nora looked at Solo, who explained, "Marcus... He is Brenda's comrade who died protecting her back then, but isn't he dead?"

Nora's eyes narrowed at Solo's words.

No wonder she had found his name so familiar just now. She'd heard about Brenda's past where Solo had, due to a freak combination of factors, accidentally caused Marcus to die while saving Brenda.

This was also why it had been impossible between Solo and Brenda back then.

Later, Solo had made countless attempts to redeem himself, which ultimately made Brenda relent and change her mind. The pair had been about to get engaged when Brenda suddenly started to reject him again and insisted on breaking off the engagement...

So, had all that been because of Marcus' return?

Nora looked at the villa again. Suddenly, the voice of the middle-aged lady from earlier reached their ears. "Oh, you're awake, son?"

"Yeah. Who's outside, Mom?" The other party's voice belonged to a man.

"I don't know, just a few passers-by. They are probably your wife's friends. By the way, when are the two of you going to have kids? I can't wait to have grandkids’"

"Well... it's no hurry! Aren't we already trying our best?"
