Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 694

Sumner, with a compassionate demeanor, delicately poured wine for them.

As the discussion about Everleigh unfolded, he casually chimed in, “I came across an online article suggesting that her decision to take her own life was linked to heartbreak.

I can’t vouch for its accuracy, though.

”

“I’ve heard this rumor as well.

” One of the big shots, slightly drunk, had a flushed face and struggled to articulate.

“It’s baseless.

I have insider information.

Everleigh was rumored to be the mistress of a wealthy man and had allegedly given birth to his child!”

Sumner’s hand shook slightly as he poured the wine.

“Really?” Another prominent figure grew curious as well.

“It’s just gossip, but in the end, rumors about such matters in the entertainment industry often turn out to be true.

Do you remember Everleigh’s prolonged absence from public view before her tragic death? There’s talk that she went abroad for studies, staying there for five months.

However, less than a year after her return, she committed suicide.

”

“So, her supposed studies were possibly a cover for secretly giving birth to a baby? But if she gave birth to a baby, where is her baby?”

“I’m not aware of that,” responded the big shot.

Curious, someone inquired, “Which wealthy man are you alluding to?”

“It’s believed to be someone from one of the four influential families, but we may never ascertain which one.

”

After pouring the wine to the guests, Sumner sank into a contemplative state.

One of the four esteemed families! If he was Everleigh’s child and his surname came from his father, the only logical conclusion was that the wealthy man was from the Lawson family.

The coincidence of sharing surnames with one of the four prominent families was too uncanny.

What was the real story?

Sumner balled his hands.

At the same time, at Jordan’s dinner.

The three dined in a posh private room, the only sounds being the clinking of cutlery.

It was a tradition in the Walsh family not to speak during meals-a part of their family values.

Throughout dinner, Carole remained silent while Jordan observed her with contentment.

“Mr.

Walsh.

” Carole set down her fork.

“I need to use the restroom.

”

“Go ahead,” Jordan responded with a gentle expression, casting a meaningful glance at Domenic.

“Carole just returned and isn’t familiar with this place.

Could you accompany her?”

Aware of his grandfather’s intent, Domenic complied without protest.

With a cold expression, he walked out with Carole, one hand in his pocket.

As they walked silently through the corridor, Carole suddenly stopped and called from behind, “Domenic.

”

Domenic halted and turned around.
