Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218 He's Finally Back

As they crossed the threshold, Cecelia noticed that the Western-style building seemed to have been deserted for a long time. The interior appeared somewhat antiquated, with many pieces of furniture covered in white cloth.

This scene before her made her realize she had been too optimistic about everything.

She had even thought that she would see her little brother as soon as she entered.

But the reality? Nothing in sight.

The immense bubble of her hope instantly burst from within.

Turning around with disappointment, she asked him, "Remington, no one's here! Where the hell is Kevin?"

Remington walked over and gently told her, "Actually, Cece, this place is Eaton Brown's home, where your brother lived for three years."

"Eaton Brown was a chemist with no children of his own, and he adopted Kevin, who then changed his name to Jason Brown. He spent three decent years here."

"Unfortunately..."

"Unfortunately, what? Don't stop!"

Cecelia grabbed his arm, trying hard to control her emotions. She didn't want any more ups and downs on her journey to find her brother.

Couldn't she just find Kevin in a straightforward and even way?

"I hope you're prepared for the rest of what I'm about to tell you."

Cecelia nodded.

"When Kevin was eight years old, his adoptive father passed away due to an explosion during his chemical research. That day, Kevin was also seriously injured. After Eaton's death, he lost someone who cared about him once again and became an orphan. Then he was sent away."

Hearing these words, tears kept welling up in Cecelia's eyes. Her heart felt so sour and painful.

Her brother was trafficked at the age of five and wandered from place to place until he ended up in a foreign country. Who knew what kind of trauma his young heart had endured during that time?

Finally, a foster father came into his life, but he only had three years of stable life before facing another disaster, getting seriously injured, and once again losing his family.

Becoming an orphan once more?

What kind of impact would this second round of suffering have on his heart?

Cecelia couldn't bear to think about it!

Holding back her tears, she walked upstairs to see the place where Kevin had lived.

In one of the rooms, Cecelia found a weathered picture frame with cracked glass covered in thick dust.

She took out a handkerchief and wiped off the dust from the glass, revealing a photo of a middle-aged man and a boy.

Wasn't the boy her brother, Kevin, when he was around six years old?

Kevin...

I'm sorry, I'm late!

Cecelia reached out and touched the person in the photo, her brother.

Looking at his young face, she blinked with sadness, tears streaming down her cheeks.

A great amount of unbearable pain surged deepest in her heart!

"Kevin, no matter where you are, I'll find you!"

She made a vow to the boy in the picture, turned around, and left. Cecelia had wiped away the tears from her face, but her eyes remained red and swollen.

Coming downstairs, she approached Remington and asked, "Have you found out where my brother was sent later?"

"I have. He was sent to a monastery."

"A monastery? Let's hurry and go there! Maybe he's waiting for me there!"

Excitedly, Cecelia said, and Remington nodded, accompanying her as they left the building.

Not long after their car drove away, another silver Maybach arrived, heading toward the building.
