Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 663

"A hundred thousand. Quite generous."

Evander seemed uninterested, having already guessed who was behind it. "Any new leads on the car accident?"

Natalie shook her head. "Besides the Jensen matriarch's driver, no one else touched that car. Oh, and the madam drove it herself before the accident without any issues. The driver died in the crash, and I've checked all the bank records for his family. Aside from the condolence payment you provided, there are no unexplained large deposits."

The Jensen matriarch had exclusively used that driver for over a decade. Natalie couldn't fathom why a man with a family to support would trade his life for anything. Money? But the bank records were clean.

Evander stared out the window, his expression grave.

"There's one more thing," Natalie said, hesitating before continuing. "Victor wants Mr. Pembroke to marry Miss Genevieve, and Mr. Jensen has agreed…"

That evening, while Charlotte was having dinner with Hiram, he suddenly spoke up. "Sis, the holidays are just a couple of months away. Are you… going to spend them in Eldermere City or here in the Capital?"

She took a sip of hot soup and looked up. "If you don't mind, you could come to Eldermere City with me. My father and brother would love to have you!"

Hiram froze for a moment, then lowered his head.

Realizing what he was thinking, Charlotte put down her bowl to comfort him. "I haven't forgotten our parents. Even though they weren't my biological parents, this was the home where I grew up. You think that just because I've found my birth family, I'll grow distant from you, but besides my brother, you're the only other brother I have."

"Sis, I don't feel like we're growing distant," Hiram mumbled, gripping his fork tightly. "I just feel like I'm not good enough, always causing you trouble. Sometimes I think it's for the best that you went back. You're not held back anymore, and maybe you'll be happier and have an easier life there."
