Helpless, Jane and Patrick had no choice but to leave.
Just as they reached the doorway, the man inside called out to Jane.
“Wait, let me tell you.”
Jane smiled at Patrick, finally getting the answer she had been waiting for.
“In fact, Finley and Haven are not our daughters. We are just their biological parents’ sister and brother-in-law. Their real parents couldn’t find the two sisters for a long time, and they suffered mentally. Both of them passed away a year ago, so they entrusted us to continue searching for her.”
The truth shocked Jane when it was revealed.
She had initially thought that these two people were only pretending for the sake of money, but she didn’t expect there to be such a tragic story behind it.
What she didn’t expect was that Finley and Haven’s biological parents had passed away, and the two elderly people left with disappointment after failing to find their own biological daughters.
Jane’s heart was deeply moved, and she couldn’t help but feel a great deal of sorrow when she looked at the elderly couple. She fought back the tears welling up in her eyes. Suddenly, she thought of her own unborn child who had already passed away.
An unborn child could bring such profound sadness.
What about two biological children they had raised for some time?
Patrick noticed that her emotions were off and was afraid that she might have a health issue.
He quickly asked his assistant in the car to take Jane away while he dealt with the situation.
After ensuring Jane’s safe departure, Patrick asked, “Why didn’t you tell the two sisters earlier? Why resort to such a mistaken approach to obtain an incorrect result?”
“We just wanted them to misunderstand. If things turned out well, we wouldn’t have to tell them about their parents’ passing and spare them the grief.”
The two elderly people had good intentions, and Patrick understood.
He walked out of the house and contacted the two sisters, giving them the address.
Soon, the two sisters arrived together, and Patrick briefly explained the situation.
The truth, which belonged to them, was painful for the two sisters to hear. They hugged the elderly couple and cried uncontrollably.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Finley kept apologizing, realizing the absurdity of her previous actions.
No one could have anticipated that the truth would turn out this way.
None of them saw it coming.
“It’s good that you can see each other. I’m happy, and your parents in the afterlife can finally rest in peace.” The two elderly people had searched for a long time and finally fulfilled their wish.
The four of them embraced each other, crying inconsolably. This scene would move anyone who witnessed it.
Patrick couldn’t help but feel grateful that Jane wasn’t present. If she had seen this situation, it would have reminded her of the child they had already lost.
“But for now, let’s not cry anymore. The most important thing right now is not this matter. Although it’s good to uncover the truth, the problem is that you know it, but your friends don’t. They will continue to harass these two elderly people.”
They had experienced the fermentation and severity of public opinion on the internet.
Just the thought of it made Finley feel a sharp pain in her chest, as if countless needles were piercing her.
She choked and asked, “Should we hold a press conference now?”
Patrick silently nodded in agreement.
“These things have already been arranged by my assistant. The press conference will start in about an hour. When the time comes, we will need both of you to cooperate and clarify the whole situation. The most important thing is to prevent these internet users from harassing the elderly couple.”
Patrick had everything arranged, ensuring that Jane wouldn’t have to worry anymore.
Both sisters agreed and got into the car, parting ways with the elderly couple for the time being.
They arrived directly at the press conference venue.
The place was already packed with people, and all the reporters were waiting in front.
They entered through the back door and arrived just as the conference was beginning.
Patrick looked at the crowd of reporters below, while the two sisters hadn’t fully recovered from their emotions.
“You have to believe in this matter. After it’s over, the people you care about will find peace in their lives.”
Patrick rarely comforted others, and this might have been the first time.
Both sisters nodded in agreement, putting their trust in Patrick’s words.
Finally, Patrick took the stage and explained the situation to the reporters.
“Recently, everyone has been following the story of the sisters searching for their biological parents. This matter has reached a conclusion, and we are holding this press conference to inform everyone about it, hoping that you can approach it with fairness.”
After speaking, he called the two sisters to the stage.
Both of them had been crying for several hours, and their eyes were swollen.
They first bowed deeply to the reporters below, and then Finley stepped forward to address everyone.
“Recently, I have received a lot of attention from everyone regarding our situation, and we want to say thank you.”
“In addition, we want to clarify the situation about the two elderly people that has been circulating on the internet. They are actually our biological parents’ sister and brother-in-law.”
Finley took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
“These two elderly people…” Finley couldn’t hold back her tears and ran off the stage.
Haven continued Finley’s words, “Our biological parents passed away a year ago. These two elderly people searched for us on behalf of our biological parents. Fortunately, they found us.”
Haven couldn’t control her tears either and looked at the reporters below, feeling more and more aggrieved.
The assistant pulled her down from the stage.
The reporters witnessing this scene expressed their sympathy.
They also thought about the actions of the elderly couple before and now understood the outcome.
Patrick made the final concluding statement.
“I hope that from now on, no one will disturb the elderly couple’s normal lives.”
The two sisters cried uncontrollably backstage, and Patrick sighed as he watched them.
He had already instructed someone to bring the elderly couple over.
He walked up to them and patted their shoulders. “Let’s go, let’s go see your biological parents.”
On the way, Patrick explained, “I was afraid that Jane would be moved by this scene, so I asked her to go back first.”
The group arrived at the cemetery and looked at a modest sign.
There was only a photo hanging on it, a picture of their biological parents together. There was nothing else, not even a name.
The two sisters felt a pang of sadness as they looked at it.
“They haven’t found you yet, so they didn’t know whether to put their names on it. They decided to leave it blank.”
The elderly couple explained to them.
Finley looked at the photo, feeling overwhelmed, and fell to her knees, shouting with every ounce of her being.
