Chapter 290 - Grandma started suspecting

When she inside the laboratory Madam Valdez is also there, she is helping Jeff in his cardio research when she noticed Jean.

She is not aware of that they became friends recently. So she is surprised to see Jean in her grandson's laboratory….he doesn't allow anyone to enter his labs, then how did she manage to come.

Enrick smiled politely and explained her about their project and thesis. Then they moved to their section and started working on it.

As everyone are busy in their own world Madam Valdez have her eyes on Jean and her appearance. Mainly her pendent chain…

She remembers too well…..if she is not dreaming it is her elder daughter chain, the same one she and her husband gifted to their precious twins on their eighteenth birthday. There are no chances that it is a duplicate version what Jean is wearing..

She is damn sure it is the exact one her daughter Sophia use to wear….even on the day of her accident she had this chain on her body. There are no possibilities that this chain could be Maria's, because she still have it with her.

Could it be Sophia's…her mind started to go haywire due to this thoughts. She couldn't help but suspect if Sophia didn't die twenty six years back. Her daughter was very secretive and so mysterious .

She was a close book that no one could read what is happening in her life….so it is possible that Sophia didn't die that day.

Then there is a possibility that Jean is her daughter's child. But Jean is approximately twenty five years old now…then how can she be Sophia's daughter.

This can only happen if Sophia is pregnant with Jean when she duped her accident. She might have did this because she is pregnant then, she knew how strict her father is when it comes to love and marriage.

May be this made her to elope with her boyfriend….but why didn't she return back

Madam Valdez felt her heart throb with pain….Sophia and her father both are so stubborn that they use to oppose each other a lot. That might be a reason she opted to have a normal and peaceful life.

But however at the end of the day, Sophia is dead. She remembers what Scott had said, Jean's patents died in accident…that means her daughter is dead.

But her granddaughter is still here… just in front of her. Tears rolled down but this is all her imagination. There is no proof that Jean is the daughter of her dead child.

Even her features didn't resemble much… except for that sea green eyes under the eye glasses. But there are chances that Jean disguised herself in order to hide her true identity.

After all she is living three different life's in one time line… she is the mysterious fiancée of Scott Summers and the student and top doctor of their university.

Second, she is the CEO of INA and also the founder of Grace organizations.

Next, she is the vice CEO of Grey corporations and the pampered sister of both Raymond and Nathan. Black's and Herren's dote on her to no end...

She is living with three identities…

If she remembered well...her younger daughter Maria is very close to Black's. She even contact Charles Wen too often who is the person doctor of Jean for migraine. So there are chances that Maria knows about Jean..

Her eyes widened at sudden realization… 'Migraine' this is the hereditary problem in their family. Elder Valdez and Sophia use to suffer with the same… now Jean is showing same symptoms.

Turning to her grandson she patted his shoulder. Jeff looked at her wrinkled face and asked softly. "Darling, what happened"

"Do you have any pictures of Seline's engagement" she asked casually not revealing her hidden motive.

"No darling. I don't have. But we can ask Jean to show" he suggested.

"How do you know Jean…you look like a good friends" she asked.

"Oh, about that… Jean is friend of Enrick and his sister whose name I don't remember" he said. Though he wanted Iris to meet his grandmother she declined saying that this is not right time.

"Ok" she ended the topic and indulged in helping her grandson.

Later at evening before Jean could go she requested Jean to show the pictures

As they left even before the party started, Jean thought that Madam Valdez is curious. Her eyes solely concentrated on how Jean looked.

That eyes, heart shaped lips, high cheek bones, height…those resembled to Sophia's. However Sophia is as secretive as Jean. She use to disguise herself….and as a mother she is confident that Sophia had some powerful and dangerous secrets by how she use to act.

She is half sure that Jean is her granddaughter but she have make sure of it…

After deciding to ask Maria and Charles she went back to her mansion.

Enrick who saw the changes in her face stayed stoic till he reached his own penthouse.

"Madam Valdez started suspecting." He told in the call.

"Might be because of that pendant Jean is wearing" Iris told. She is now in her family mansion and is fighting with her big brother. They are having a sword fight contest.

"Luanne will now meet Maria and Charles. If that happens then she will find out the truth, this is not the right time yet Enrick." His elder brother told in his cold and deep voice.

Luanne is Madam Valdez..

"I know big brother. But how could I stop that, Maria is not yet aware of who we are….I still have to pretend that I don't know anything" Enrick laughed in mockery.

"We have to wait for right time Rick. Maria is not aware of the bigger threat Jean would face if she is revealed as Sophia's daughter. Keep focused" His elder brother told.
