Lincoln was stunned. "Sir..."
"What's her full name?"
"Jenna Chandler."
"The woman who used to live with me at the villa was her, not Serena, right?"
"Yes."
"Did my car accident happen because of her?"
"Miss Chandler left late at night, and you checked her flight and were on your way to find her when the severe accident occurred due to the storm..."
"Why did she leave?"
Lincoln was sweating profusely and shaking. "Sir..."
"Just speak, don't worry. If my parents want to hold someone accountable, I'll take the blame."
"It was probably because of Miss Serena..."
"What did she do?"
"Miss Serena had just returned to the country, and you were very close to her."
Lincoln cautiously glanced at Xander. "Miss Chandler might have misunderstood, gotten jealous."
Xander couldn't quite remember the details,but he could be certain that they hadn't been intimate.
As for being very close?
Xander frowned slightly, doubting he would do such a thing.
Lincoln then added another sting. "You hosted a welcome party for her and helped organize her art exhibition."
"You were away for several days, leaving Miss Chandler alone at home."
For the first time, Xander lost his composure: "I don't even like her, why would I go crazy doing all that for her?"
Lincoln smiled kindly: "Sir, you and Miss Serena grew up together.She is your childhood sweetheart."
"You even said you'd marry her when you grew up."
"But later, as you grew up, you somehow didn't like Miss Serena anymore."
"Miss Serena was so heartbroken she once attempted suicide."
"You felt guilty and promised in front of both families to help the Nash family and Miss Serena as compensation for her."
"So, helping her organize the art exhibition was probably for that reason."
Xander stared at Lincoln and asked one last question.
"So, nothing ever happened between me and Serena, right?"
Lincoln thought for a moment: "As far as I know, that's correct, Sir."
Xander suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
