Chapter 218 How Did My Mother Die?

Author: Jennie Hum
Sigrid thought that since she was an adult now, she had to get back the company. She could let Franklin have the management rights, but the shares belonged to her. There was no reason that the money earned would be given to Franklin, and then given to Kama and Rebecca.

That night, when George came back, he found that Sigrid was a little strange. Her knitted eyebrows looked like she was thinking about something. Usually, the foodie would be very happy when she ate, but that day it seemed like something was troubling her.

George asked, "The food doesn't suit your appetite?"

Sigrid came back to her senses and shook her head quickly. "No, it's fine."

He did not ask any further. After they'd had dinner and headed upstairs, he finally asked everything.

He was a little puzzled as he asked, "Vincent Group was left to you directly by your grandfather?"

Sigrid was more confused than him. "You didn't know?"

He said, "Neither you nor Franklin said anything

    No, it was impossible. It happened more than ten years ago, even if George were to investigate it, he would not be able to find out anything. How could there still be any evidence from what had happened so long ago? Franklin said, "Your mother died from a heart attack. Didn't I tell you this before?"  Sigrid looked at the stopwatch in her hand. After she'd asked, it had taken Franklin more than three seconds to answer her question.  What went through his mind in these three seconds? Was he thinking of her dead mother, or was he worried that the things he had done would be exposed? Indeed, only Franklin knew how her mother had passed away, but she had guessed that what had happened more than a decade ago would not be simple. Sigrid said, "Really?" Franklin scolded in rage, "Of course, did you think that I killed your mother? How could I have such an ungrateful daughter like you?" She kept silent. Franklin probably didn't even r

    Franklin answered honestly, "Green." "Is it moving?" He replied, "It's moving..." His gaze involuntarily followed the pendant. At first, he could tell that it was moving, then he felt that the pendant was just placed in front of his eyes and wasn't moving at all. His consciousness seemed to be a little fuzzy, and everyone in front of him disappeared. Only this pendant remained in his vision. "Did you kill your deceased wife?" He said, "Yes, I killed her." George, who was watching from the side, narrowed his eyes and looked towards a person hiding behind the bookshelf. "Why did you kill her?" "She used me. At that time, I really abandoned Kama to be with her. She didn't want to be with me at first, but then she changed her mind and agreed to marry me. I was elated, but it turns out that that wasn't my child. Sigrid...isn't my child." Sigrid, who was hiding behind the bookshelf, froze when she heard this. She could not believe what wa

    Vincent Group's November dividends had been credited in full into Sigrid's bank card in December. Sigrid's eyes lit up when she saw the extra millions in the card. Although Vincent Group wasn't huge, it wasn't small, either. Sigrid held sixty percent of the shares, and she'd gotten a few million in just a month. She supposed the company was still making money. It also meant that Franklin owed her a huge sum of money. She looked at her balance. Even without calculating, she knew that she had become a rich woman. Hence, during the weekend, she skipped into George's study and said, "I can cover all your expenses now!" "Hmm, how much money are you going to spend on me?" He looked at her with great interest, wondering how much money he was worth in her heart. Her eyes were shining. "Ten thousand dollars a month!" "...?" Was he so cheap? Seeing that he seemed to be dissatisfied with her answer, Sigrid thought about how her husband wasn't just a

    After the makeup artist left, Sigrid quickly rushed over to discuss with George. However, George frowned as he said to her, "You can't wear fake jewelry. Otherwise, people may assume that I'm going bankrupt." Sigrid had almost forgotten that this guy had always been prideful. How would he allow her to wear fake jewelry? He had probably wished that he could take her out while she was covered in splendid jewels. Sigrid then changed the topic of the conversation and asked, "How did the investigation go for that matter?" George shook his head and said, "It's already difficult enough to figure out what had happened more than ten years ago, let alone figure out something that happened more than twenty years ago. If only Kama could also be brought in for a hypnosis session." It was easy to hypnotize Franklin. However, it was hard enough to meet Kama, let alone hypnotize her. Kama had rarely gotten herself involved in anything. Thus, the chances of her comin

    Sigrid ignored the daily argument that went on between Loris and Elizabeth. She then placed an order for twelve bridesmaid dresses and asked Alisa to prepare them. With regards to the wedding reception props, she still had to discuss it with Rachel. They chose a few simple games, and the remaining ones were just quizzes and so on. She tried her best not to make the groom and the groomsmen lose their pride by doing shameful acts. She was guessing that the identities of the groomsmen that George had invited were not of the ordinary. At the very least, Jonason and Christin must have already occupied two slots. She didn't know which other big shots George had invited, so it would be awkward if she made them feel embarrassed. After Rachel agreed, it was much easier to buy the props for the wedding reception. After Sigrid confirmed the props, she breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that those props were already sufficient. George had stopped going to work from t

    Sigrid pursed her lips. Then, she thought about George and said, "Domineering men... Are you referring to men like my husband?" In fact, Sigrid had been reading romance novels for several years already. Back then, when she treated George as her brother-in-law, she really thought that he was the domineering type. However, when she found out that he liked her later on... "Humph, how could there be such a clingy domineering man!" she thought. He even wished that he could stay by her side every day. It would be better if he could use super glue to stick himself onto her skin! Rachel thought for a while and said, "I suppose so. Your husband does suit the stereotype of a domineering man." "He is a very clingy person in private, which is completely different from who he is on the outside." "You haven't truly understood the personality of a domineering man! A domineering man is only like that on the outside, but on the inside, he treats his wife like a princess! I

    "Too much preparations you all came up with." Cyrus added, "Don't you feel that the groom and his men are very pitiful?" Rachel replied, "No. Marriage is not something to be taken lightly. Thus, everyone should have some fun. If it weren't because of the groom and the groomsmen's status, I would have made things even more difficult for them. I'd probably force them to play dress-up and wear girls' clothes. That would definitely be real fun!" Cyrus replied, "Thus, it can be seen that a man needs the courage to get married." Rachel then replied, "I'm sure the bridesmaids will not bear to make things difficult for you on your wedding day." "How do you know?" Rachel replied, "I guessed it!" Rachel thought to herself, if he were to get married, it'd be with her since they were engaged, right? How would she bear to see others torturing her idol like that? Although they were all excited for the next day, they tried to sleep as early as possible

    The people downstairs seemed to be waiting for everyone to get out of the car before heading to the house together. Footsteps were only heard about a minute after Rachel had closed the door. Sigrid knew what George was going to wear on this day. His first outfit was a suit. Then, he would change into another suit for the dinner banquet. She still felt a little nervous at this moment although they'd already gotten married long before. She wondered how much money George would need to spend in order to appease the bridesmaids later. Since most of them were not short of money, she was afraid that tens of thousands of dollars of wedding gift money would not even be enough to bribe them. Someone rapped on the door. Then, Sigrid heard Christin said, "Why is the door locked? Where are the group of beautiful bridesmaids?" Sigrid thought, "Aren't you all here to pick up the bride? Why is the focus on the group of beautiful bridesmaids!" Elizabeth suddenly felt

    "Okay." Grace agreed and said, "I have something else to discuss with you." When he finally heard this sentence, Zaden knew that there must've been something going on. "What's the matter?" As they talked, they went into the lounge. Zaden also specifically told the secretaries that no one was allowed to come in and disturb him before work in the afternoon. These words made the secretaries' eyes turn red. Since he had ordered them to keep everyone out of his office while he was inside with a woman, it was hard to control their imaginations from running wild. "How's your investigation on my surrogacy?" Grace asked. Zaden had thought that Grace's patience was wearing thin, and so she had sought him out for an update on his progress. Feeling a little ashamed, he said, "I'm sorry. There hasn't been any progress so far. You know that information on surrogacy is highly secured. It won't be so easy for my subordinates to investigate it." "It's okay. You

    "Stop!" Grace made a gesture and said, "I'm going to the Empire Group. Do you want to go with me?" "Oh?" Gentry was flustered for a moment and then realized that he had almost gotten himself in trouble. He quickly said goodbye. "Sorry, sorry for bothering you. It's my fault!" Grace shook her head helplessly. She went to the kitchen to bring the toiletries she had prepared for Zaden, and set off for the Empire Group. Grace took a cab, as she didn't have the nerve to ask her chauffeurs to give her a ride. This was the first time Grace had taken the initiative to go there. She didn't know whether she was going to meet Zaden or not, but the staff at the front desk had changed since the last time she had went to deliver food and she didn't know when it had happened. Hence, the new staff didn't know her at all. However, when she saw that Grace was dressed up very beautifully and elegantly, she guessed that Grace must be someone important. Naturally, she didn't d

    This time, Grace took the initiative. She stood on tiptoe, hooked her arms around Zaden's neck, and took the initiative to plant her pink lips on his. The chaste kisses turned into lingering kisses. Zaden had always restrained himself very much. Every time he met Grace, he always felt that he was on the verge of losing control. "Well, I can't believe that you are so obedient today. Go to sleep. If you kiss me again, I might not remain chaste. You won't have a chance to sleep even if you want to," said Zaden. After going to bed, Grace took the initiative to cradle into Zaden's arms. Just like Dulcie acting like a spoiled child, Grace had also put all of her heart and soul into Zaden, like a spoiled child. The next day, there was still no sign of Zaden at breakfast in the Andrew household. "Oh? Dad's gone again..." Dulcie said regretfully. Douglas found that his sister was upset, thus he comforted her, "It doesn't matter, Dulcie. Daddy need

    The silent confrontation was still going on, and Zaden was waiting. When would Moira give in? Moira was also waiting. When would Zaden be gracious enough to let her go? However, perhaps these two people didn't know each other very well. They both had naive expectations that were absolutely wrong and impossible to achieve from the beginning. "It's so cold..." Moira murmured in a low voice. As she spoke, a puff of white vapor immediately appeared in front of her lips. Even though kneeling down like this was not a big deal, Moira had always been pampered and had grown up a spoiled child. She had never suffered this kind of hardship before. Her body could not bear it either. She only felt that her legs were on the verge of losing its strength and becoming numb. The rain grew heavier and heavier, and the wind and rain swayed. Flowers in the garden were beaten into a mess by the rain, as so was Moira. Moira's body had reached its limit, and she could not catch h

    "Plop—" Moira's kneecaps hit the ground, the sound of it ringing crisp. Grace was dumbfounded. She looked at Moira, who was kneeling in front of her, and could not say anything for a while. As for Zaden, there was not even the slightest expression on his face. "What, what are you doing?" Grace asked. She instinctively stood up from her chair as she took in the scene before her, at a complete loss of what to do. Moira glanced at her. Sometimes, when one's ego was at one's feet, one becomes more able to take humiliation than usual. She replied with indifference, "Why are you so agitated? I'm not kneeling at you. Don't think too much of yourself." Moira looked at Zaden and said, "Zaden, I beg you, please have mercy on the Coulson family. No matter what you demand, as long as I can do it, you can demand it!" Zaden frowned and said, "Kneel further if you want to. You're an eyesore right now." Mercy? For someone like Zaden, mercy had always bee

    "No, Mother, if Zaden takes over the Coulson Group, then we..." Moira could not continue speaking. She did not even want to imagine what would happen. "You understand now? I thought a donkey kicked you in the brain!" "That... That won't do. I'll go beg him right now!" Moira shouted. Now that things had come to this, it was obvious that Zaden's target was Moira. Although she was extremely unwilling, she would have to make a stand against him now. No matter what she would have to experience, she had to protect the company. She could not lose everything. She rushed to the Andrew family villa, but Moira was not even allowed through the main entrance. "Let me in!" Moira began making a scene outside. She made such a ruckus that it was difficult for the people inside to ignore her. "Mr. Andrew, Miss Coulson is causing a scene outside, this..." the butler informed Zaden "Let her be," Zaden said expressionlessly. This was not the first

    Grace frowned before cutting Moira off. "Moira, there's no use in talking to me like that. I just want to know who it is. Tell me the truth!" "Do you think I'll tell you just because you want to know?" Moira scoffed before retorting, "Who do you think you are?" "Does this mean that you admit you used Mr. Yale's name to deceive me?" Grace quickly latched onto the loophole in Moira's words. "Hah, I didn't say that. You're just making things up." Moira was still as stubborn as a mule. She once again diverted the topic so that she could insult and ridicule Grace. All sorts of vulgarities came through the call, and each minute that passed only pushed a person's limits even further. Grace felt nothing at Moira's words. However, Zaden, who was next to her, did not want to hear any more of it. He was on his last straw, so he grabbed the phone to end the call. "Are you stupid? Just letting her scold you like that?" Zaden asked, his tone sour. "As long a

    "Mr. Yale and his wife are quite old, so having children has been difficult for them. In the beginning, they contacted many surrogacy agencies. However, Mr. Yale was extremely cautious when it came to picking a surrogate mother. This caused a lot of trouble to the agencies since the surrogate mothers they suggested never met his standards." "Later, Mr. Yale thought about going abroad to find a surrogate mother. However, right at the critical moment, he suddenly found out that Mrs. Yale was already pregnant!" "The pleasant surprise caused them to give up their search for a surrogate mother. After all, Mrs. Yale wasn't getting any younger and they both went through a lot to get this son, so that's why the Yale family treats him so preciously." As Zaden listened to the report from his subordinate on the other end of the call, his mood grew complicated. The only way he could clear his mind was to focus on the fact that the night wind had blown his body cold. To be h

    Mr. Yale's word of thanks was like a knife stabbing into Grace's heart. How could she be worthy of his gratitude? She could not take it anymore and felt like returning to the car to escape the situation. Mr. Yale withdrew his hand in embarrassment. Even he, who was usually slick and smooth, could not find the right words to say at this time. Zaden tried to smooth things over by saying, "I'm sorry, she was one of the victims too, so..." "I understand," Mr. Yale said with a nod. "We understand and more than anything else, we thank you, Mr. Andrew. You've worked hard today. We won't take up any more of your time. You should go back early and rest. We will definitely drop by next time to properly thank you." Zaden nodded and turned to get in the car. Dulcie was all worn out from crying too long, so she was curled up in her seat and fast asleep. Zaden asked softly, "What on earth happened before I arrived?" Grace suddenly turned teary-eyed. The tear
