Chapter 453
Oliver looked at Diana and explained, "This is my birthday gift to you.’
Diana was confused at first, but then she quickly understood what he meant. No wonder the boy in the photo
looked familiar to her! It was the one she had saved when she was a child.
Impressed with Oliver's efficiency, she exclaimed with wide eyes, "I didn't expect you actually to look into the
incident!"
"Of course I would.’
Oliver wanted to help her identify the boy she had saved so he would have an excuse to see her a few more times.
"Now that we have a photo, we just need an adult who knew the children in Richburgh well to identify the boy."
Madam Fulcher was listening, but she didn't understand their conversation.
"What are you two talking about? What boy?"
Oliver pushed the photo further toward her. "This boy. As an elder who's familiar with majority of the noble families
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin Richburgh, can you tell us who he is?"
Madam Fulcher was chewing on some food at this moment, and she choked a little when she saw the photo.
"That's..."
Oliver asked anxiously, "Who is it?"
Madam Fulcher glanced at Diana, hesitation flashing her eyes. She swallowed the food and wiped her mouth before
saying, 'I don't know.’
Oliver was disappointed. "Even you don't know?"
He had exerted a lot of effort to get his hands on this photo, and he wanted to let Madam Fulcher have a look as
she should have seen most of the noble families' children in the past. Unexpectedly, even she knew nothing about
it.
"Yes," Madam Fulcher said, her eyes flickering slightly. "I've never really seen this boy before. This photo must be
quite old."
It seemed Madam Fulcher truly didn't know who the boy was.
Oliver couldn't stop the frustration that hit him, and Diana even more so. Although she hadn't really expected
anything before, she now had a strange feeling about it.
She felt as if she had known the boy in the photo for a long time, and this inexplicable familiarity made her eager to
discover the boy's true identity.
Evidently, Oliver noted the disappointment on her face and said, "It's okay. I'll continue looking into it."
Even if he had to scour the entirety of Richburgh, he would continue investigating this as long as Diana was
interested in it.
Unexpectedly, Madam Fulcher suddenly called him back just as everyone was leaving Diana's birthday party. She
led him to the backyard, avoiding everyone else along the way, and took him on a stroll.
"What do you plan to do with that photo?" Madam Fulcher asked sharply. All prior kindness from the celebration just
now had disappeared.
Oliver immediately became alert. He could already guess why she reacted this way.
"Then, the boy in the photo..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMadam Fulcher nodded. "Yes, it's Julian."
Lightning seemed to have struck Julian's body whole.
Oliver never imagined that the boy would turn out to be Julian.
The person Diana saved when she was a child turned out to be Julian, and Oliver had been the one to discover
this?!
For a moment, Oliver was stuck between wanting to cry and laughing at the irony of the situation. He clutched the
photo tightly, feeling as if someone had knocked him in the head, leaving him somewhat disorientated.
Seeing the sorrow and loneliness in his eyes, Madam Fulcher knew that Oliver had no bad intentions and was a
clever man.
With that thought in mind, she quickly explained, "I didn't mention it just now because Diana was there. She's been
feeling conflicted about Julian recently, and I was afraid that mentioning his name on her birthday would upset
her..."
"I understand."
When it came to considering Diana's feelings, Oliver and Madam Fulcher were on the same wavelength.
