Chapter 416 Kneel Down and Apologize to the Real Descendant of the Songo Family
“Uncle! In such a special situation today, there must be witnesses!” Cecelia faced the other members of the Songo family and began to talk. “Good day, Everyone! I specially invited everyone to be present today, including all the supreme leaders and media, to witness this important moment. Next, I will solemnly restore some historical truths!” “Historical truths?” “What historical truths?” The people of the Songo family started whispering, becoming even more curious about her words. And the supreme leaders of Porema were also waiting for her to continue. All the media have set up their cameras and pointed them at Cecelia and all the important guests at present. “As you can see, there are three tombstones behind me. One for Jessie, one for Vernon, and the other for Edmond.” “Jessie is my great-grandmother, Vernon is my great-grandfather, and Edmond is the ancestor of the Songo family.” “Don’t you all know something about these three characters? Then, how many people know what the Songo family was like sixty years ago?” No one answered. Everyone was full of curiosity. Even if they had heard of the legend of the Songo family, they only regarded it as a rumor. As for the truth of the Songo family’s history, no one really knew. By this time, Alfred had understood Cecelia’s true purpose. Not only did she demand an apology from him, but she also publicly announced the distorted history of the past. How ruthless she was! “Speaking of the past, I want to mention another important person, Jackson Songo. As everyone knows, Jackson, the father of my uncle.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“It can be seen from the genealogy of the Songo family that he and my great-grandmother Jessie are siblings.” “Their fathers are Edmond. Anyone who knows a little bit about the Songo family knows this, right?” The atmosphere in the cemetery was extremely solemn. Cecelia was wearing a black dress, when she glanced through everyone at present, could be seen that there were some people who nodded to indicate that she was right. “But, today, I want to correct the wrong history. Jackson and Jessie are not biological siblings.” Once she said so, everyone was shocked. Except for a few insiders at present stayed calm, everyone looked surprised. There was a lot of discussion, especially among the descendants of the Songo family who were surprised. “Cecelia, what do you mean? Aren’t our great-grandparents Jackson and Jessie from the same father and mother? Are they half-siblings?” “Cecelia, what’s going on?” Even Benson looked at Cecelia curiously, wanting to know the inner relationship. Cecelia continued. “They are even not half-siblings. Jackson and Jessie don’t have any consanguinity. In other words, Jackson was just the adopted son of the Songo family, the godson whom Edmond took, he didn’t have any biological relation to him.” As soon as these words came out, all the descendants of the Songo family looked at each other. It was probably difficult for them to accept this fact. Suddenly, it became clear that their great-grandfather had no blood relationship with the Songo family, which inevitably made people think that Cecelia was deliberately distorting the facts. “Cecelia, what’s the basis for you to say that?” Bowin asked. “I went to Longevity Temple not long ago and met Master Lennox. He personally told me the true history of the Songo family decades ago.” Cecelia explained. “But I heard that Master Lennox has passed away and has been interment by urn burial, how can you prove that what you said is true?”
“Yes, Master Kongyue has passed away, but there is still one person who can prove that what I said is true.” Cecelia looked aside and said. “Bring the witness please.” Everyone turned to look to one side and saw an old man slowly walking into the cemetery accompanied by Adam. No one present could recognize who the old man was, except one person. When Alfred saw the old man walk in, his hand was shaking and his cane trembled as well. Adam already recognized who this old man was, but couldn’t believe what he saw. “Is… is it Jesper Long?” “He is Jesper?” “Impossible, how could he be Jesper!” “Isn’t he not in good spirits?” No one in the Songo family believed that the old cadre-looking man they saw in front of them was the disheveled tramp-like madman imprisoned in the West Garden of their house. When Jesper came in front of everyone, he first looked at the three tombstones, and then knelt down soon and kowtowed.”Sir Nelson, Madam, I am finally here to pay homage to you!” After the old man knelt down and kowtowed three times, he got up and looked at Alfred. However, Alfred just stared at Jesper and asked in surprise. “Jesper, you are not mad?” “Master, I have never been crazy.” “Ah? Could it be that, over the years, you have been pretending to be crazy?” When Alfred saw Uncle Jing returning to normal, he was shocked and speechless. He couldn’t believe that Jesper could pretend to be crazy for more than sixty years. Everyone in the Songo family was also very surprised. Who would have thought that an old man who has been crazy for decades would say in public today that he has never been crazy? Why do people who are not crazy live in the West Garden for decades without going out? “If I didn’t do this, how could you, Master, tolerate me living till now? I’m here today just to tell everyone the truth about the history of the Songo family.”
Jesper said to everyone and reporters at present. “My name is Jesper Long. I was a servant of the Songo family decades ago, and later became a housekeeper…” Jesper recalled the past events in public and explained to everyone in detail about the relationship between Edmond, Jackson, and Jessie at that time. “So, Jackson is not Edmond’s son at all. He personally killed his adoptive father, killed Jessie’s husband, Vernon, took over the family business of the Songo family, and modified the genealogy of the Songo family.” After Jesper announced the truth, everyone in the audience was shocked. The media were shocked by the inside story. Only then did Benson realize that there was no blood relationship between him and Cecelia, and he was not her uncle at all. Discussions continued at the scene, and Alfred was silent and unable to refute a word. Jesper continued. “Master Alfred also knows about this matter. Back then, his father had an evil interest in the young and beautiful Miss Cece, so Miss Cece had to flee the Songo family to save her life.” The real reasons why Cassie fled from the city sixty years ago were all revealed. Her father and grandfather were both killed, and her mother endured the humiliation and raised her up, but Jackson could not tolerate her. She, a weak woman, really had no way to support and keep the Songo family and Songo Dyehouse. In desperation, she had no choice but to flee from the city. Alfred never thought that Jesper would expose such a thing, he immediately became furious. “Bullshit! Don’t talk nonsense! My father didn’t… don’t ignore the facts and talk nonsense!” Seeing Alfred was rebuttaling in public, Cecelia scolded. “Uncle! At this point, the witness testimony is conclusive, do you still want to quibble?” Jesper became emotional and said with tears in his eyes. “Everything I said is true. I have endured it for so many years just because I wanted to be a witness to Miss Cece and her family. I’m afraid that if I die then no one will know the truth of the past!” Jesper wiped away his tears, and Cecelia’s eyes were red. She took a deep breath and looked at Alfred.
“Alfred, you are not of the Songo family, and I no longer need to call you uncle.” “Listen carefully! What you call the fortune of the Songo family was obtained through shameless means by your father, Jackson Songo. His hands were stained with blood and he was burdened with blood debts.” “You have inherited his sins. Hiding and distorting the facts, all you did was as evil as your father. And you should also apologize for what he did to the real descendant of the Songo family!” “My great-grandmother, great-grandfather, and the ancestors of the Songo family are all here now. Just kneel down and apologize to them now!”
