Hilda went back to work to recently, but the places she could visit had decreased even further.She was either working in her office, stayed at home, or went to her the site to have a look.After demolishing was all done, they started working on starting it aggressively. As one of the investors, Hilda put quite a lot of effort in it. She walked around the site to check up on them.This day, right after Hilda had finished looking around and was prepared to go home, she received a message from Diana on Messenger. 'Hilda, Carmen found some of your mom's stuff back home from when you were brought in. When you are free, remember to come over to retrieve them. The address is xxxxx.'She even sent a few pictures over. One of them was a picture of a simple box with some clothes that had turned yellow. It was obvious that they were outdated, and the fashion was popular back then. Apart from that, there was a picture of a hardcover notebook that was popular decades ago. There were a few sticker
The photographs in the photo album, however, actually belonged to her.There was a layer of gel on each of the photographs, so they were well preserved.The photo album had around 30 photographs that showed Connie alone.While Hilda was in a daze looking at the photos, Toby observed the structure of the room. The door was locked, and the windows were all sealed. It seemed that the Adams Family planned to lock them in here to lure Nathan out.After looking through everything in the suitcase, Hilda closed the suitcase and took it. "Let's go."Nuella took out a silenced gun while opening the door. Unexpectedly, smoke traveled from behind the door through the slits."Fire! Fire!" someone screamed in a shrill voice.Fire?While Mr. Adams was happily waiting for his son in law to visit, he suddenly saw billows of smoke rising from the second floor. Then, Diana and Carmen ran outside anxiously from Carmen's room."Dad, the second floor is on fire!"Mr. Adams glanced at the second floor. A tr
Hilda called Gasper after she saw that. "Is there a thunderstorm in Taadi tonight?"After hanging up the phone, Hilda continued to unpack her mother's belongings. Apart from the photographs and notebook, and baby cloth, there wasn't really anything notable. Even so, she kept them away orderly. When I'm free, I'll burn all of these.Finally, she saw the notebook.After she put the diary on her study, she looked at the writing on the first page. The fountain pen handwriting was quite nice indeed. It could almost be passed as calligraphy. Subconsciously, Hilda thought that it was written by a man.Curious, she opened the first page and saw two lines of fountain pen writings on the paper that had turned yellow.'Day X, Month X, 199X, Sunny. My first deary entry.At this point, the writing style suddenly changed. The handwritings looked soft and wriggly, as if it was written by someone who had not written for a long time. Apart from that, there were spelling errors. It was completely diffe
My mother had never been a slut who desired to become part of the rich and wealthy!On the next page, Connie wrote, 'I spoke to my father on the phone today. He doesn't allow me to head home because the wage here is exceptionally high. Adrian, what should I do? Can you come to save me?'The handwriting at the end contained her usual crooked style. The twisted handwriting and utterly illogical sentences strongly indicated that she might have written those in a sorrowful and indignant yet helpless state.The truth of that incident years ago was finally revealed. Connie left Adrian because she was threatened by his family.To avoid them, she became a nanny in another residence where she was then raped by her employer!She was helpless and had no one to assist her. Adrian had left her and her employer had even confined her. When she finally had the chance to call home to ask for help, not only did her family refuse to save her from the fire, but they even thought that she had received an
Nathan placed the notebook in front of him. "This is my mother in law's notebook. She had dated Adrian before, but they were forced to break up. I've just checked the hospital records on pumpkin's birth twenty years ago. She was actually born in September, but she has been celebrating her birthday in October. Her date of birth, which is recorded on her household registry and identity card is also in October.""There's a one month gap there, which means that her Family had intentionally registered her date of birth a month later. Therefore, I suspect that pumpkin's mother had been pregnant before she went to the residence. The Family knew that Hilda isn't a part of the Family she had worked at. As a result, they deliberately changed her date of birth to a month later so that they could blackmail the Family!"Johnathan briefly read through the diary and the more he perused it, the gloomier his expression was. When he closed the notebook, he was frightened and a little baffled.That mean
The whole building of Adams Group was burned down as the fire was too large to contain. Luckily, it was a weekend and night, so there weren't many people in the building. Although no one was injured, the Adams Family had suffered a huge loss. The Adams Groups base and the building, which were once as bright as day, were lost overnight. When she finally arrived at the scene, the whole building was only left with its frame and some charred remains.Everything else was gone!The investigation by the fire brigade revealed that as the building's lighting protection system had aged, the thunderstorm last night had caused the lightning to strike the building, which then gave rise to the fire breaking out. As it happened in the middle of the night, there weren't many people in the building, so nobody knew what happened. By the time it was discovered, the whole building was in flames.Carmen stared at the building's empty black frames in disbelief and slumped to the ground.Many things had hap
He deliberately disturbs me when I'm in the middle of studying. Besides, he is doing it so enthusiastically! I can't believe he's actually asking how my studies are going. How else could it be? I didn't even manage to read anything with him knocking against me while making me dizzy!Nathan lightly drew circles on Hilda's shoulders with his tongue while planting feathery kisses across her shoulders. She had a rose tattoo to cover the Hex's mark. The tattoo almost looked like it was blossoming with charm while exuding an alluring fragrance.He whispered by her ear, "Stop studying if you can't concentrate. Why don't we focus on my thing.."After a while, Hilda was barely hanging in there.She was already exhausted from studying and working hard during the day and figured that she could sleep after making love in the study. Never did she expect to fool around with him in the gym room and in the bathroom while wearing a uniform.The next day, Gasper had woken up early to prepare the car wh
"Daniel!" She approached him timidly upon seeing him.He was shocked when he saw her. Feeling guilty within, he had the urge to escape.After the horrible incident at the Adams Group, the Stephenson Group seemed to behave in a manner that suggested that they wanted to call off the marriage.However, if the Stephenson were to do that immediately after the Adams were in trouble, it would definitely tarnish the Stephenson Family's reputation. Nevertheless, Mrs. Stephenson had other plans in mind. She heard that Hilda was married to an extremely wealthy old man, so they planned to have Daniel take over the old man's assets once the latter had kicked the bucket.He would then dump Hilda once he had received the large inheritance.Initially, he was hesitant about the plan. After all, Hilda had been ruthless and decisive in her decisions. However, Mrs. Stephenson reminded him as an experienced woman, "That's because she loves you, which is why she's doing so many things to hurt you! If you g
