His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 881

Niamh knew her own gravestone was in this cemetery from when she had faked her death.

Sitting in the passenger seat of the deep space gray Koenigsegg, Niamh turned to look out the window. The weather was beautiful today—the sun was shining brightly in a cloudless, crystal-clear sky.

When Jonathan told her he wanted her to accompany him to Green Hills Cemetery, Niamh had almost asked if he was planning to take her to pay respects to her own empty grave. But after a moment's thought, she dismissed the idea as pointless. She guessed Jonathan was taking her to visit someone else's grave.

After parking, Jonathan bought a basket of flowers from a roadside vendor, and they began the walk up the hill together.

“Want to go see your own gravestone?” Jonathan asked with a smile, but Niamh immediately shook her head.

“No way. That feels too weird.”

“You have a point.”

Seeing Jonathan agree with her, Niamh felt certain they were here to pay respects to someone else. Could it be a deceased member of the Thomas family? Or maybe…

Just as her mind began to wander, Jonathan slowed to a stop. Beneath a lush ginkgo tree stood a marble headstone.

Niamh walked up to it and lowered her gaze to the name carved on the stone.

“…Sean Kane…”

Her long lashes fluttered as she looked up. Though she’d only heard the name a few times, she remembered it—it was Joker’s real name.

He remained silent for so long that she finally had to ask, “So, Marigold… she isn't your biological mother?”

Jonathan gave her a brief glance, a bitter smile touching his lips. “Genetically speaking, she isn’t… but she was the one who gave birth to me.”

Niamh was utterly confused.

Although Jonathan's father, Sprague, had a reputation for womanizing in his youth, he had once been truly in love. The object of his affection was the heiress of the Kane family—Eleanor Kane.

In her day, Eleanor was a regal and aloof beauty. With her prestigious family background, striking looks, and high intelligence, she was hailed as a genius. She excelled at everything she tried, and suitors from prominent families were constantly vying for her attention.
