Chapter 13 Identity Exposed
Seeing that Myrna had put away the pills, Martin didn't stick to the topic. Instead, he worriedly warned, "Take as few pills as possible. If you really can't sleep at night, take one pill. If you feel fine, try not to take it."
"Okay."
This was not the first time Myrna had taken this kind of pill. She knew their effect and readily agreed.
After grabbing her things, she picked up her backpack, threw the pills in, and prepared to leave.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Martin stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?" Myrna picked up her things and said casually, "I'll go home.
Martin immediately frowned. "Which home?

Didn't the Stark family kick you out?"
He remembered the phone call he had with Myrna before and stared at her for a moment. "You mean to go back to live with your biological parents?"
Myrna didn't like being too close to any men, so she took a half step back and admitted casually. "Yeah."
Martin naturally saw her move, and his eyes darkened. He felt depressed but helpless, so he could only pretend that he didn't see it. After all, out of sight, out of mind. "You hung up on me a few times because you were having lunch with your biological parents' family? You've met them. What kind of people are they?"
Myrna recalled and said slowly, "I haven't learned them more, so I don't know. I only saw my biological father. My biological mother is said to have passed away. Her death reason is not clear yet, and I will check it out. The rest... Grandpa is very good to me." "Grandpa..." When Martin heard this, he knew that

she had not acknowledged her biological parents but her grandfather.
Martin's heart sank. He asked seriously, "Do you really want to stay and investigate your real parents?"
Myrna didn't know why he kept asking the same question. But she was still very patient and nodded. "Yes. Every leaf has its roots. I want to know who I am and where I come from." This reason was impeccable.
Even if Martin wanted to take her away, he had to suppress the thought. He frowned. "Then what are you going to do next? Going back to River Town with your biological father?" Myrna said, "They are from Melcester."
Martin looked puzzled and said, "Melcester? Didn't you say that your biological father is from River Town?"
Myrna couldn't explain clearly. "I haven't figured

out the details yet. Luther told me that they are from River Town, but they don't seem to be."
"What's your biological father's name?"
Myrna thought about it for a moment but didn't remember it. She rubbed the bridge of her nose, for she didn't like this kind of questioning. "His surname is Payne. "Payne?"
The Payne family was quite powerfully rooted in Melcester. The elderly members of this family were even related to the Larson family in Nemmington.
Martin looked at Myrna with deep eyes and
stopped the absurd guessing.
Myrna's real father couldn't have anything to do
with the Payne family.
Myrna had put away her things. She took a
medicine bottle out of her b..ckpack and threw it to Martin.

Martin quickly caught it.
Myrna slowly picked up her backpack and said softly, "This month's medicine."
Three years ago, a pill able to enhance bodily function began to circulate on the black market in their country. It was said that the effect was comparable to panacea. It could prolong people's life and make them feel refreshed.
As soon as the medicine was sold on the black market, all the major forces wanted to control its sale. Only three pills would be auctioned on the black market every month, and every auction causes quite a stir.
"Three more?" Martin carefully checked the pills in the bottle. The small white pills looked no different from jelly beans.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
But one pill could sell at a shockingly high price on the black market.
