The woman didn't waste any words and led Ethan Smith to her "best friend" right away.
This was a woman about sixty years old, who looked quite aged.
"Adele, this young man wants to find the Jade Bodhisattva," the woman said as they walked.
Hearing the three words "Jade Bodhisattva," the woman called Adele flashed a surprised look in her eyes.
She looked up and down at Ethan Smith and exclaimed, "You ... you look so much like the Jade Bodhisattva, as if you were carved from the same mold!"
Ethan had seen his mother's portrait and indeed bore some resemblance to her.
"She is my mother," Ethan didn't hide the truth.
The surprise on Adele's face deepened even more.
She reached out and touched Ethan's face, saying, "When the Jade Bodhisattva gave birth to a baby boy back then, we all thought he had died. I didn't expect... you've grown up so much."
Ethan hurriedly asked, "Auntie, do you know where my mother went?"
At this question, Adele took out her smoking pipe.
