The Invisible Daughter (Yunice Saunders) novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239 The Dead Don’t Shop for Diamonds.

Don’t go soft now.

Owen’s voice was hoarse. “Oscar, if it’s too much for you, let’s go drink. Get wasted, and the pain will pass.”

Oscar didn’t respond, so Owen took the lead and dragged him to a restaurant.

Oscar downed half a bottle of liquor, one slam after another, eyes bloodshot.

Then Owen brought someone in. “Oscar, Paul came to see you….

Oscar turned–just in time to see Paul’s face–and launched to his feet, punching him hard Jenough to send his jaw sideways. “You promised me you’d take care of Yunice! Why are you still

alive while she’s dead?! Where were you when she got in that car crash?!”

Paul hissed, wiping the blood from his mouth. Annoyed, he glanced at Elsie, who quickly lowered her head.

So Oscar still didn’t know Yunice had broken off the engagement with the Powell family.

He’d spent ten years in the lab, completely cut off from the outside world. He knew nothing about what had happened in the Saunders family.

Paul frowned. “Yunice was supposed to marry Wyatt.”

Slouching into a seat with casual arrogance, he said, “She begged for it. What were we supposed to do get on our knees and plead with her?”

Oscar snapped, “And what about you?! You’re marrying the Kendall girl now! Don’t think I didn’t know–you were never faithful in school. Yunice must’ve given up

on you, that’s why she ran off and agreed to marry Wyatt out of spite!”

“Yeah, I fooled around. I slept around. But Yunice never kicked up a fuss. She kept her mouth shut. I think she just saw Wyatt’s status and got greedy!”

Oscar’s eyes turned murderous. Elsie quickly stepped in, trying to smooth things over. “Yunice is gone now. Who’s to say what really happened between them?”

Owen nodded. “She’s right. You’ve been away for years, Oscar. You don’t know what’s been going on at home. Paul wasn’t blameless, sure–but Yunice wasn’t perfect either. The breakup wasn’t all his fault. Otherwise, I would’ve punched him too.”

Oscar narrowed his eyes, sizing up Owen.

As a child, Owen had loved Yunice the most. If even he was saying this… maybe there really was more to the story.

Once Oscar finally sat back down, Owen changed the subject. “Oscar, we can’t just wallow in grief.

Finished

your research coming?”

Oscar clenched his fist. “I’ve been at it ten years. I wouldn’t have come back if I failed.”

Owen’s eyes lit up. If you invest, we might have a real shot at taking Wyatt on!”

But Oscar covered his face. his voice breaking. “Stop talking business. I just want Yunice back.

He knew that was impossible. He took a long breath as tears slid down his cheeks. Then he stood. “You all keep drinking. I’m going home–to see Yunice’s things

Elsie panicked. There was nothing left of Yunice at home.

Had she faked her death–just to mess with them?
