She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 155 - FINDING OUT THE TRUTH I



Stefan pulled out three photos inside the envelope. One was a picture of his mother and his father. The two of them looked quite young, barely legal age if he based it on their looks. This picture told him that his mother and father knew each other way before he met Clara Minato. The second picture was a photo of his mother wearing a white floral dress and a hat at the beach. She was holding someone's hand. Stefan was very clear as to who owns that hand she was holding. And the last picture was a photo of Latticia, holding a cute little baby in her arms. She was lying on a hospital bed while looking towards her child with a gaze full of love and tenderness.

"And they told me that my mother died from giving birth to me. Is this what a dead person looks like?" Stefan questioned in mockery. He looked at the back of the pictures but there were no notes left on it. He pulled out a stack of paper and found out that it was his mother's death certificate and also the information about her death.

Stefan was born on Oct. 17 and on the certificate, his mother died on Dec. 13. It was clear that she died nearly two months after he was born. And the cause of death wasn't from giving birth. She died from a car accident on her way home from buying groceries. She was a victim of a hit and run.

"Alexander was born six years ahead of me. So, considering the time, Magnus can be called a cheater but when you think about it, he met my mother before Clara. Isn't she the third party, then? She's absolutely the home wrecker. If she didn't come, my mother wouldn't have died." Stefan commented while thumbing through the pages of the documents. After a while, he placed it down on the table and pulled out another stack of paper. The most important thing was that, he didn't cause his mother's death. That's a little relief on his part.

The next documents he got was a DNA test results. "Hn? Why would there be a DNA on this? Is this a mistake?" Stefan read the name of the parties and found that it was a test result between his father and Alexander's DNA. What's more shocking was that, the result came out NEGATIVE. "You've got to be kidding me!" Stefan exclaimed in anger. "Alexander isn't my brother? Is this some kind of a joke?" He read the documents again and again and found that result didn't change at all. "Holy f*cking god! Is this some sort of twisted drama? Is my life a kind of drama? How did this happen?" He was baffled. He was truly surprised that he stopped looking at the other things.

Suddenly, an image of a man, who often come to visit Alexander during his birthday and Christmas, popped in his mind. 'No way.' He thought to dismiss the idea. 'That man was Alexander's uncle.' Stefan recounted but no matter how much he tried to dismiss the idea, there resemblance was very close and he couldn't stop himself from leaning towards that immoral idea.

He pressed his fingers on his temple and rubbed it. He was getting a headache just with this piece of news. How come they all came to him when all he wanted was to know more about his mother? He rested his mind for few minutes before pulling out another stack of papers and a recorder from the envelope.

The recordings were from different people. They surrendered their names and their relationship to his mother and Magnus. Some of them were old classmates from high school and some were from their university. There were neighbors who spoke up and some were his mother's family.

They all said that Magnus loved Clara so much that even when he got married, he couldn't let go of her. Latticia was the same, he loved the man so much that she agreed to become his mistress. They were both aware that they wouldn't become a happy family. In fact, the Dumrique Clan wasn't against the relationship between Magnus and Latticia at first. They were even ready to let Magnus get married with his mother.

However, a news came that Magnus impregnated someone. He admitted to this mistake as well. He was drugged and drunk. But he was fully aware of what happened at the bar. Clara was a fresh graduate student that time when she came across him at the bar. She wanted to get rid of the baby in her stomach but she was also afraid of karma. In the end, she laid all the blame to Magnus.

With a little bit of manipulation, he fell with the trap she made. Eventually, she fell in love with him but that's when he found out that the love of his life got pregnant. It was still considered cheating since he was married to Clara and he kept Latticia from her knowledge.

Everything was twisted. His mother's love was twisted. His father was a cheating bastard. Clara was a manipulative and cunning woman. In the end, none of them have a happy ending and surely, he will make sure that they will suffer forever.

"Looks like I'll have to make a trip back to the Dumrique's villa." Stefan muttered to himself while pressing the next button. A manly voice came through and it seemed like he was exhausted or helpless based on the tone of his voice.

"I'm Dr. Albert. I worked for the Minato Clan and dirtied my hands for the sake of their name. Now, I wanted to bring justice to those that suffered because of my negligence. Young master Alexander is the son of Clara, conceived after she had an affair with her third uncle. I was supposed to get rid of the baby when they decided to find a man that they can easily manipulate. The young miss wanted to get rid of the baby, too but she found Magnus inside a bar and decided to let him take the blame since he's the son of the Dumrique clan, the next heir to their company. A cooperation between them will be a good bait to make the family arrange a marriage for them. So, our plan to kill the baby was put on halt. And I'm also involved in Latticia's death."
