Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 929 - 967: Why Are You Still Alive

As soon as these words were uttered, Adrian Conley’s face changed drastically. Adrian Conley, this name... How many years has it been since anyone has called him that? He also thought that this name was something from a past life.

Yet now, this name was spoken once again by someone he most dreaded.

"Mr. Kinston, what are you talking about? My surname is Conley, but that is not my name." Adrian Conley said, holding onto a last hope that the other party was merely probing, not certain of anything.

But to his disappointment, Kyle Kinston’s gaze remained so cold, and so... assured.

"Adrian Conley, since I’ve found you today, it means I’ve confirmed everything. I thought you had died many years ago, but to my surprise, you’re still alive, married with children, a happy family."

Adrian Conley’s face suddenly turned exceedingly pale.

"I don’t want to talk about this here. Get in the car." Kyle Kinston said coldly, leading the way to a parked car.

And Adrian Conley, his whole body stiff, finally took a step and got into the other’s car after some time. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The car drove to a secluded riverside, where Kyle Kinston got out and walked to the riverbank, looking at the gently flowing river. The river flowed like time, once gone, it can never be grasped again.

Adrian Conley took a deep breath and got out of the car as well. Some things, no matter how much he wanted to avoid them, he couldn’t escape them in the end.

As he approached Kyle Kinston from behind, he saw the other person slowly turn around, those pitch-black eyes stared at him coldly.

Once, a similar pair of eyes had stared at him like that, asking him, "What can you give her in this life? But rest assured, since I promised her I would do my best to heal you, I will certainly do so, only that in this life, you have no fate with her."

Those words from that man felt like a judgment to him.

And he, could only accept it passively.

"Why are you still alive?" And now, the owner of those similar eyes asked him in such a cold voice, as if it were ice, freezing all the blood in his veins.

Adrian Conley’s body stiffened for a moment, a long-buried secret was finally about to be laid bare, "I... once thought I would die too. When the doctor pronounced me dead, I woke up in the hospital morgue, then I escaped from the morgue wearing ragged clothes. I learned that your father and mother held a grand funeral for me, and realized that in the eyes of the world, I was already dead."

He spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice, these past events had been buried too deep, too deep, and he once thought this secret would go with him to his grave. But now... "So, I figured, if that’s the case, I might as well be a dead man. After all, with this illness, I didn’t know how much longer I could live. Later, I left Falling City, went to J City, and while begging on the street, I met an elderly couple. Because we shared the same surname, they would chat with me while giving me some food. They knew I had no parents and was an orphan, and as they had lost their son in an accident who was about my age, they allowed me to take on their son’s identity, and I was willing to become their son, to fill the filial duty for them in place of their son."
