"Ever since I saw you, I always had a good feeling about you for some reason. I've heard Amelia say that you're from Empfield and have never been to Jeswood?"Mrs. Summers' heart raced when she asked Laura the question.This was because Laura looked a lot like her.Laura's appearance caused Mrs. Summers to have an assumption.As soon as Amelia arrived outside Mrs. Summers' room, she heard the question. This caused her hair to stand on end.Knock, knock, knock!Amelia's knock on the door interrupted the conversation between Mrs. Summers and Laura."Mom, it's me." Amelia pushed the door open and walked inside. As soon as she saw Laura, Amelia asked coldly, "Why are you here?"Mrs. Summers knew that the two of them had fallen out. Therefore, Amelia didn't know she would need to hide her hostility towards Laura.Laura didn't answer Amelia's question. She just looked at Amelia.Mrs. Summers quickly chimed in and looked between Laura and Amelia, "Laura is my guest. The two of you m
Seeing how Mrs. Summers was holding Laura's hand, Amelia's face darkened even more.However, due to Mrs. Summers being present, she had no choice but to keep quiet.'You'll kneel in front of me and beg me, Laura!' Amelia exclaimed inwardly.After heading downstairs, the three of them saw Nancy sitting on the sofa waiting for them. She would occasionally look in the direction of the stairs as well.When Nancy saw the three of them, she quickly stood up nervously.Amelia walked up to Nancy and introduced her to Mrs. Summers. "Mom, this is the friend I told you about. Her name is Nancy Sugden."When Mrs. Summers saw Nancy, she was taken aback.She looked between Nancy and Laura and then said with a smile, "Let's sit down everyone."Seeing this, Amelia knew that Mrs. Summers began to feel suspicious and felt happy. "Mom, do you think she looks familiar? I had the same feeling the first time I saw her as well."Laura seemed to have noticed this as well. Therefore, she began sizing
After returning inside the mansion, all Mrs. Summers could think of was Laura and Nancy's faces. They both looked like her.In the end, Mrs. Summers couldn't hold back anymore and dialed a number.The more Mrs. Summers thought about it, the more she felt that Laura and Nancy were connected to her somehow.However, she only had one daughter...She couldn't wait to find out if Laura and Nancy were connected to her somehow.The door to Mrs. Summers' room wasn't closed. Amelia saw everything that Mrs. Summers was doing outside the door.Her lips curved from ear to ear."Mom, I've brought some fruit for you..."Amelia's appearance caused Mrs. Summers to subconsciously hang up."Amelia, how come you're here?" Mrs. Summers hid her phone behind her back and smiled."I saw that the door to your room wasn't closed and it's been a while since we've eaten, so I thought I'd bring some fruit for you," said Amelia as she placed the fruits on the table at the side.When Mrs. Summers hung up
"Miss, the doctor said that you need to rest and shouldn't move around. You don't need to worry about the medical fees either. Someone has already paid everything for you." The nurse told Nancy what the doctor told her."Someone paid for my medical fees for me? Do you know who it was?" Nancy was surprised when she heard that someone had paid for her medical fees."I'm not so sure about that. I'll leave you to rest now."Nancy thought about what happened the previous night as she lay on the bed.She remembered that she was hit by a truck and then she lost consciousness.Nancy tried her best to recall what happened, but she couldn't remember anything, no matter what.Not only that, she could vaguely remember two people talking.One was a male and the other was a female.The female voice sounded familiar as well. She seemed to have heard it somewhere.Who was it that saved her?Trying to recall what happened gave Nancy a headache.'Forget it. Let's not think about it for now!'
"Mrs. Summers, Amelia, the wounds may look serious, but they'll recover quite quickly," Nancy replied with a smile."You're all bandaged up. It's got to be really serious." Mrs. Summers looked at the bandages around Nancy's body and her heart ached."It's only some scratches, Mrs. Summers. They'll be gone soon." Nancy continued to comfort Mrs. Summers.Mrs. Summers sighed. "It's a good thing that you're fine."As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something. "I could tell that the truck rammed into you on purpose. Nancy, have you offended someone?"The truck wouldn't have collided with the car Nancy was in if the truck driver had been driving normally unless the driver did it on purpose.Moreover, the car seemed to be waiting for something on the road and only acted when it saw Nancy's car.This meant that the car was waiting there on purpose.Nancy was slightly taken aback and then shook her head with a smile. "I think you're overthinking things, Mrs.
After Amelia was gone, the man walked silently towards the Central Infirmary.Inside the VIP ward, Nancy had only just fallen asleep.She suddenly heard the door of her ward being opened. She felt a little scared and opened her eyes.Footsteps gradually closed in on her and stopped next to her bed.Nancy widened her eyes and subconsciously wanted to scream, but realized that someone had covered her mouth. She also felt that a knife was placed on her neck."Mmmm..."Nancy struggled to break free.The man began to use more force after seeing Nancy trying to break free. The pain caused Nancy to groan."Stop moving or I'll kill you," the man threatened in a low voice.After hearing those words, Nancy didn't dare move anymore.When she saw the man's eyes, horror arose in her heart.The man was wearing a mask, so she couldn't see his face.The man only moved the knife away after seeing that Nancy was no longer struggling.Nancy felt the coldness on her neck disappear, but before
Mrs. Summers walked out of the operating room with a pale face after giving blood.Amelia helped Mrs. Summers to sit down on the chair.She then said deliberately, "Mom, I didn't expect Nancy to have the same blood type as you..."This was something that Mrs. Summers didn't expect. She then thought of Nancy's pale face which looked a lot like her, which made her feel that Nancy was probably her long-lost daughter."Mom... I have a feeling that Nancy is my sister. Could that be possible?"The sister that Amelia was referring to was Mrs. Summers' biological daughter.Mrs. Summers grabbed Amelia's hand and said, "I suspect the same thing as well."Amelia knew that Mrs. Summers would suspect this sooner or later, but after hearing Mrs. Summers admit to it herself, Amelia still couldn't help but sneer inwardly. 'As expected, this old fool had always wanted to find her own daughter!'Amelia forced herself to calm down and said, "I don't know why, but as soon as I met Nancy, I had a s
"What?" Nancy widened her eyes in shock. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.Amelia told Nancy about the paternity test. It took Nancy a while to come back to her senses.She looked at Mrs. Summers who was hugging her and crying and then at Mr. Summers and Nathan. Their eyes were red as well.Nancy then said, "So... so you're my mom, dad and... brother?"After hearing those words, Mrs. Summers cried even louder. Even Mr. Summers turned around to wipe the tears from his eyes."My child. You're my daughter, my biological daughter." Mrs. Summers pulled Nancy into a tight embrace.Looking at the state of Mrs. Summers, Nancy couldn't help but hug her bag. She then shouted, "Mom!"The two of them cried in each other's arms.Everyone in the ward chatted for a while. When they found out that Nancy was deliberately hurt by someone, Mr. Summers became infuriated."I'll definitely get to the bottom of this. I want to see who was it that had the guts to hurt my daughter like that!" he sa
The two children attracted Laura's attention and she just watched them play.The two children looked a little alike. The boy was obviously a little older than the girl. They were most likely brother and sister.The little girl noticed Laura's gaze, so she walked up to her. "Are you looking at us?"The little boy noticed his sister standing in front of two strangers. He then rushed over and stood between the girl, and Laura and Chris with an alarming look on his face."Don't worry. We won't hurt you." Laura squatted down so that she was the same height as the two children."I think I know what she wants, Owen," the little girl suddenly said with a serious face."What does she want?" The little boy's face softened when he looked at the little girl."She's looking at us, so she must be wanting to play with us!" the girl said innocently and then looked at Laura. "Am I right?"Laura squatted down and pinched the girl's face with a smile. "Yes, you are! I love children who are cute l
"Harry and I are planning to go to the beach after this, do you want to come with us?" Shannon asked Laura.After giving it some thought, Laura nodded. "Sure!"The three of them waited for about a quarter of an hour after the meal before Chris came to pick them up."Have you finished?" Chris was asking everyone but his eyes were fixed on Laura."Yes, we have. I have to admit, the food here is actually quite nice," said Harry.He seemed to not have had enough as he placed some more food in his mouth."Do you want some more? We're in no rush anyway."Laura was worried that Harry didn't have enough to eat."No, I'm full. Let's head to the beach." The thought of going to the beach and enjoying the night view with Shannon made Harry very excited."What beach?" asked Chris. He was a little puzzled."Shannon just said that they were going to the beach and asked me if I wanted to join them. It felt like a good idea to me so I agreed. Do you want to come as well?" Laura turned to look
Lucas and Dawn waited for a while but their food still wasn't served."What's taking them so long?" mumbled Dawn."They're probably busy. We don't have any other plans tonight, there's no rush."Lucas picked up his phone and began playing a game. At the same time, he poured a glass of water for Dawn. "Here, have some water., it'll ease the hunger"Dawn was rendered speechless.She picked up the glass, took a sip of water, and then began looking around. That was when she noticed a table of a man and two women receiving their food as soon as they sat down.Seeing that, Dawn shouted, "Waitress!"A girl in her early 20s quickly walked over to her. "How may I help?""When will our food be served? We've already been waiting for a long time." Dawn was a little dissatisfied."I'm sorry, Miss. The kitchen is already preparing your dishes and the food will be served very soon," the waitress said apologetically."What do you mean by that? We've already been waiting for ages. Not only th
"Mr. Summers, Mr. Scholfield is waiting for you in the meeting room.""Okay."Nathan tidied his desk, picked up a file and headed towards the meeting room.As soon as he walked in, he saw Lucas sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.Lucas had a lazy temperament and his lips were curved into a mischievous smile. He looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Summers, you're three minutes late."Nathan was used to Lucas's behavior, so he just looked at Lucas indifferently. "Here's the contract. Check to see if you have any problems with it."Lucas sat up, took the contract, and flicked through it casually. "Where's the pen?""Aren't you going to read it more carefully?""I don't think that Mr. Summers is going to trick me, right?" asked Lucas. His voice was casual and his hand was getting ready to hold a pen.Nathan smiled, took out a pen from a drawer, and signed his name on the contract before passing it to Lucas.Lucas held the pen tightly in his hand as he signed his name on the
Nathan waited in the police station with Amelia.About an hour later, two police officers brought a man in black and wearing a baseball cap in front of the two of them.There were wounds on his face as well. It was obvious that he had been beaten up.One of the officers passed a delicate purse to Amelia. "Miss Summers, is this your purse?"Amelia's eyes lit up. "Yes, that's the purse I lost.""This is the person who stole your purse, Miss Summers. What do you want us to do with him?" the other officer pointed at the man and asked.After giving it some thought, Amelia said, "I've just checked my purse and nothing's missing. I'll let him off this time.""Looks like you're in luck. Quick, thank Miss Summers for her kindness.""Thank you so much, Miss Summers!""Alright, just try not to steal things in the future. You can leave now." Amelia waved her hand.After the man in black was released, Amelia and Nathan headed back home as well.Amelia then sent a text to the man in black
"Get someone to find out why Amelia went to the police station today." Nathan gave the order."Yes, Mr. Summers. I'll get right on it." Dominic nodded and went out of the room.After giving it some thought, Nathan still felt that he should head to the police station in person to ask Amelia what she was doing.When Nathan arrived at the police station, Amelia had just finished talking to Jack."Amelia!" Nathan called out.Amelia stopped walking and turned around. She then looked at Nathan with a face full of surprise."Nathan, what are you doing here?" Amelia smiled and walked over to Nathan."I came to check if Jack had said anything else. I've also heard that you came to the police station instead of to work, so I thought I'd come to give you a lift on the way back."Amelia nodded with a smile. "Okay, I'll head back home with you once I've found my purse.""What purse?" Nathan felt a little puzzled."I was going out with a few friends, but I lost my purse on my way. There we
"Please take a seat, Miss Summers. We've already sent men to look for your purse. We'll find it soon." One of the officers put on a big smile and tried to please Amelia when he found out that she was the daughter of the Summers family.Amelia just nodded and then went to sit on the chair.A while later Amelia asked the officer that just spoke to her, "I'm a little bored. Can I take a look around?""Sure! I can...""There's no need. I want to take a look around by myself. Notify me when you find my purse."With that said, Amelia left the reception room and began walking around the police station.She didn't get far before she saw Jack."I need to speak to Jack," Amelia said to the guard outside the cell."I'm sorry, Miss Summers. Mr. Summers gave us specific orders to keep an eye on him and not let anyone visit him."The guard stopped Amelia. His attitude was respectful, but wasn't letting her anywhere near Jack."Do you not know who I am?" Amelia became a little angry. She co
After losing her memories, Mrs. Summers couldn't remember anything. She didn't want to dwell on this matter since it was in the past.However, Alex wasn't going to let Nancy off that easily. "She must be punished. Otherwise, who knows what she would do next time!"Nancy had become more and more arrogant. Alex felt that if he didn't teach her a lesson now, she would do something even worse.After hearing Alex's words, Mrs. Summers still didn't want to punish Nancy. "She's our child after all. We shouldn't criticize her too much. Everyone makes mistakes, right? Let her off this once for me."Nancy kept nodding her head after hearing Mrs. Summers' words. "Dad, I'm so sorry. I promise there won't be a next time. Please forgive me just this once."Seeing that Mrs. Summers was asking him to let Nancy off, Alex had no choice but to say, "Since your mom has forgiven you, then I'll let you off this once. But if there's a next time, I'll kick you out of the Summers family myself!"Nancy qu
Seeing the look on Nancy's face, Alex knew that she knew about the glass of water. His face immediately paled.Amelia quickly walked forward. "Dad, Nancy was just a little thoughtless, I think she didn't mean any harm."Her words made Alex even more infuriated. "She was thoughtless? Was that the reason to add sleeping pills to the water?"If it weren't for that glass of water, Alex wouldn't have been in a deep slumber and the things that followed wouldn't have happened.Nancy began shaking in fear. That was because she did add sleeping pills to the glass of water.She was planning on getting Chris to drink the water and then she would get someone to bring Chris to her room when he was asleep.That way, Chris would have to be responsible for her under the pressure of the Summers family.However, what Nancy didn't expect was that Alex drank the water instead of Chris.Amelia wasn't worried that Nancy would sell her out. That was because drugging Chris wasn't something appropriate
