Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263 Unexpectedly Learned His True Identity

Adam had already driven the car away, so Cecelia didn't say anything else.

She couldn't figure out why, but she could never resist Adam's initiative and goodwill.

"Cece, should I take you to Bluebell Mansion?"

Adam had checked that this was where she lived. Cecelia nodded. "Yes."

In Adam's presence, it seemed like nothing could be hidden from him, and Cecelia didn't intentionally hide anything.

The two of them remained silent on the way. Cecelia rested with her eyes closed, and Adam smoothly drove her back to Bluebell Mansion.

The vehicle belonged to the manor, so the gatekeeper opened the gate for them directly. Adam drove the car inside and parked it in front of the villa.

When they arrived, Adam turned around and opened the door of the passenger seat. "Cece, here we are. You can get off now!"

Cecelia opened her eyes and indeed saw the car parked at the front door of her house. She unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

"Thank you, Adam. Shall I have someone send you back?"

Adam smirked playfully. "I drove you back, so aren't you going to invite me in for a cup of tea? I'm thirsty."

His sunny smile and sincere tone made it impossible for her to refuse his request.

"Alright, come in!"

Cecelia invited him into the house and had someone make tea for him.

Adam finally entered Cecelia's residence, and he was so curious. After he sat on the sofa for a while, a servant brought over a cup of tea and placed it in front of him.

"Adam, take your time to drink. If you want to leave after finishing, there are drivers outside who can give you a ride. I'll go rest first!"

"Alright, you go rest! I'll leave after I finish my tea!"

Adam could also sense Cecelia's deliberate distance and cautiousness towards him. He had to admit that this woman had a strong sense of self-defense and seemed to have already noticed something.

Adam's gaze darkened slightly. After finally getting the opportunity to enter Bluebell Mansion, he couldn't easily let it slip away.

No one knew what his mission in the Cathail Republic was. He was supposed to get close to a woman named Cecelia and find a way to obtain the heirloom book The Collection of Fragrant Clothes from her.

But when they first met, he almost hit her with the car, and the second time he coincidentally met her at the hospital. Those were accidents. At that time, he still didn't know she was his target.

Later, he helped her by holding an umbrella for her and invited her to have a meal, which was his carefully designed plan.

He needed to become familiar with her first, gain her trust, and then proceed to find the heirloom book.

The servant in the living room went off to work, and Adam finished the last sip of tea in his cup. Instead of leaving, he quietly went upstairs.

As he passed the master bedroom, which was closed, he made his way toward the study and slipped inside quietly.

Where would Cecelia hide The Collection of Fragrant Clothes which was precious?

Adam began to search carefully. He checked the bookshelves, boxes, and containers, but unfortunately, found nothing.

He approached the desk and opened a few drawers, but one of them was locked and couldn't be opened.

Could it be hidden here?

Adam took out a thin wire he carried with him and after some tinkering, he finally managed to unlock the drawer.

Gently pulling it open, Adam discovered a box inside. His heart leaped with joy and he quickly opened the lid.

But when he saw what was inside the box, he realized it wasn't a heirloom book, but a picture frame.

He took out the frame and turned it to face him. With just one glance, he was stunned!

In the frame was a photo of a mother sitting with her son and daughter under a cherry blossom tree.

Weren't those pretty cherry blossoms the same ones he had seen in his memories?

Looking closely at the little boy in the photo, Adam was astonished. Wasn't that him as a child?

If that was him, then the gentle and beautiful woman in the photo must be his mother, and the innocent and lovely girl of the same age must be his sister.

He had finally found his mother and sister!

This photo was actually in Cecelia's study. Could it be that Cecelia was...

The more Adam thought about it, the more shocked he became. The answer was already on the tip of his tongue.

But at that moment, the study door was kicked open and Cecelia's cold figure appeared at the doorway.

Adam raised his gaze and looked at Cecelia, his heart filled with mixed emotions and his thoughts in turmoil.
