Zachary narrowed his eyes. He seemed to have deduced something through Lucas’ silence, if Miss


    Corinne and I weren’t husband and wife, why would I take a child from her back then?”


    Lucas snapped back to his senses and red at him. “I’d like to know the answer to that too!”

    Zachary looked at the infuriated Lucas and responded calmly, “Make I ask your surname?”


    “It’s Rivera,” Lucas answered coldly.


    Zachary asked further, “And what is your rtionship to Miss Corinne?”


    “She’s my sister.”


    Zachary nodded. ‘I understand. Your anger toward me stems from your belief that I’ve wronged your


    sister.”


    “Wronged? That’s an understatement!” Lucas roared. “The harm you inflicted on her can hardly be


    described as a mere ‘wronging’.”


    Zachary then replied, “I don’t remember anything, so I can’t offer you an exnation for your


    usations at the moment.”


    Lucas had always been gentle in character, but he could no longer help himself from gritting his teeth.


    “Do you then expect me to just let you off the hook so you can spend your days away with Sophia with


    the child that you took from my sister?”


    Zachary rified, “That’s not what I meant. I don’t trust Sophia at all. If I believed everything from her


    lips, I wouldn’t have found this opportunity to bring you here for a detailed discussion.”


    Lucas gave him a puzzled look. “If you don’t trust her, why don’t you leave her and uncover the truth for


    yourself?”


    Zachary sighed self-deprecatingly and nced at his crippled legs.” Believe me, I would me and


    Sophia, you should be aware of the kind of influence that Sophia’s family has in


    Molomia. I’m a disabled amnesiac. I can’t escape, and I don’t remember the people I once knew. I


    wouldn’t be able to seek help from anyone even if


    I could.”


    Lucas looked at Zachary sitting in the wheelchair and noted that hecked the vibrant energy Jeremy


    once had. There was a weary, sickly air about him that seemed to be an obstacle for him to escape


    Sophia’s control in Molomia.


    Lucas suggested, “I can bring you back to your home now that I’ve located you. Are you willing toe


    with me?”


    It was a rare opportunity for freedom, and Lucas expected Zachary to agree.


    Unfortunately, Zachary shook his head and said, “As someone with amnesia, both your statements and


    Sophia’s are the same to me. It’s onesided. I find it difficult to trust either sidepletely.”


    Lucas retorted with a cold sneer, “So you’re willing to continue staying with Sophia?”


    Zachary lowered his gaze in deep contemtion and responded, “I’m more inclined to believe your


    version of events for the sole fact that my son and Corinne’s son are the spitting image of each other.


    While I won’t go back with you on an impulse, I don’t intend to stay with Sophia either. Sophia might not


    let it slide under those circumstances, and we might risk the lives of innocent people. Sophia came


    back to the country to deal with her father’s assets. After that, she ns to take Benjamin and me to a


    private ind she purchased. She wants to iste US from the world. I hope you can lend me a hand


    before that happens.”


    Lucas eyed him warily and asked, “What sort of assistance do you need?”
