Chapter 344
“You can fake vidéos and DNA test results, but not memories,” Mila said calmly and turned to face everyone. Her eyes finally landed on Nathan. She felt a sense of security and courage in Nathan’s warm gaze.
No matter if she succeeded or failed today, she would be fearless as long as Nathan was with ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ (F)indN(o)vᴇl.nᴇt
her.
Mila cleared her throat and continued, “My name is Wanda Hoffis. I’m 25 this year and I’m from Sunterland. My name at birth was Sally Hoffis and I was born in Norvania. Also, I’m Zach’s granddaughter. The people in the video are my parents but they are currently missing.” Taking advantage of Zach’s distraction, Loretta broke free of his grip and rushed to the stage. She bellowed, “You’re lying! How can a plastic surgery freak like you be my granddaughter?” Mila gazed helplessly at Loretta and explained, “Grandma, I’m Wanda. When I was ten, you took me abroad because you were obsessed with a celebrity. You even bought that celebrity a five–million–dollar car.”
Loretta was stunned to the core. This was the secret between her and her granddaughter. Zach stormed over and pointed his finger at her. “You old hag! You actually spent five million on a guy!”
“Grandpa, it was a singer, a female singer!” Mila hurried to reassure him.
Loretta was too distracted to notice Zach’s anger. She staggered back and asked, “Are you really my granddaughter?”
Both Mila and Sally reached out to help her at the same time, but it was Sally who got to her
first.
“Grandma, don’t listen to her nonsense. You can find that stuff online,” Sally said.
“Grandma, ask me anything about when I was a kid and I’ll tell you,” Mila chimed in.
Tears welled up in Loretta’s eyes as she looked at Sally and then at Mila. Mila let out a deep sigh and decided to ignore Loretta for the time being.
“Many of you here today are old friends of my grandparents who have watched me grow up. I’m talented in many areas before the age of ten and fluent in several languages before the age Ads by PubFuture
of 14.
“I believe this fraud knows nothing at all,” Mila said.
Sally’s concern grew. Just then, an elderly man with white hair stepped forward. “Do you remember me? I’m your great uncle,” said Seth Hoffis, Zach’s younger brother. FindNovel.net

Mila had no recollection. She asked, “Can you give me another clue?”
“When you were eight, you did something great in my study that cost your grandfather a lot of money,” Seth replied.
Mila’s memory flashed back. She laughed and said, “Great–Uncle Seth! I’m sorry I broke that old porcelain vase of yours.”
“You must be Sally!” Seth exclaimed.
More people came forward to confirm Mila’s identity.
“If you’re Sally, do you remember me? I’m Vincent, and I used to be your deskmate,” asked Vincent Collins, a well–mannered man in his twenties.
Mila had long forgotten what Vincent looked like, but she remembered the name. “I wasn’t your deskmate. You were Nate’s deskmate.”
Are you sure?”
“Absolutely. I’m a few years younger than you and Nate. I did well in class at the time-”
Mila paused. Her eyes drifted to Nathan, who was watching her with a calm gaze. She had pushed herself to study hard and skipped a few grades just to be in the same class as Nathan.
“I skipped three grades and became your classmate because I wanted to learn more. I was short then and sat in the front row.
“You were the tallest kid in the class and you sat in the back row. And you were the class representative for three years in a row.“
