However, only after finishing her sentence did Lyra Smith realize she had said something she shouldn't have.
She instantly looked at him.
But Morris Jackson appeared calm, "You know."
Lyra was too stunned to respond.
Morris stared at her, "I should say, I know you know."
The sentence sounded confusing at first.
However, Lyra understood the meaning of his words clearly.
"Why didn't you expose me directly?" He wanted to know what she was thinking.
Lyra scolded herself for letting the information slip, but it was clear that Morris already knew about his injury in South Vietnam.
"I thought that if my uncle didn't want me to know, it must be because he was afraid I would worry too much. Since I knew about it, I would definitely keep it in my heart so that he wouldn't worry about my worrying."
The reason was compelling.
And it was truly Lyra's sincere thoughts.
