Sharon had tried lots of formulations but was still unable to crack her adopted father’s formula for Appreshar.She had been depressed about it for the past few days. ‘What ingredients did my adopted father use? Why is the fragrance so special? Besides, the fragrance remains for such a long time.’She wanted to head back to the Newton household to have a look there. Perhaps she could find some hints in her mother’s bedroom. After all, she managed to find Appreshar in her mother’s room.It was coincidentally noon when she returned to the Newton household. Old Master Newton was taking his rest, so she did not disturb him.In fact, she was not so keen to meet with the old man anyway.As she was the young lady of the Newton family, she was free to enter and leave the house. No one would stop her.She walked straight into the courtyard and headed to Malvales Garden where her parents used to live.On the little cobblestone path, there was suddenly something white next to the flowers o
It was broad daylight, yet Sharon still felt spooked out while feeling chills crawling down her spine.Perhaps this was a bungalow that was abandoned by the Newton family a long time ago. ‘There’s nothing to be afraid of. I should hurry and look for that stupid dog. Getting back my documents is of top priority.’“Stupid dog, come out this instant!” she shouted as she walked further down the road.Suddenly a white shadow passed by and the Pomeranian appeared in front of her. The folder her documents were in was inside the dog’s mouth.“So you’re here. Be a good dog and give me back my folder. Later, I’ll give you some meat to munch on.” She slowly approached the dog.She got closer and closer, and suddenly, she pounced over to catch the dog!The dog was very alert, and in the blink of an eye, it escaped in front of her and made its way to another side.In just a brief moment, the Pomeranian immediately ran into the little bungalow. Subconsciously, she went along and followed the
’What did she mean by her Sienna?’“Sienna, you’re my precious daughter. Sienna… Mommy missed you. You’ve already grown up…” said the woman while choking. Tears were seen flowing down her cheeks and her hands were still touching Sharon’s face. She was evidently heartbroken.Sharon felt her heart thumping hard. ‘This woman... What is she talking about?’She stared at the woman, and after a brief moment, she suddenly snapped out of it. Her vision was a little blurry and she nearly could not make out the woman’s appearance.She held her breath and fixed her eyes on the pale and scrawny face in front of her. ‘This woman... is my biological mother?’In her mind, she was comparing this face to the face in her parents’ wedding photo. The face in front of her was naturally unable to be an exact match to the face in the wedding photo, but there were still some undeniable similarities on this woman’s face.She pushed the woman away instinctively. She could not believe it. She stared at the
”Sienna!” Eugene saw that Sharon was about to pass out and quickly supported her.“Sienna, What’s… What’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?” Autumn was very anxious and came over to look at her daughter, heartbroken.Sharon nearly fainted and her consciousness was slightly hazy, but when she saw her brother’s and mother’s faces appearing before her, she immediately snapped out of it and became alert.“Are… Are you my mother?” She still could not believe that her biological mother would appear in front of her.“My dear daughter, can you finally forgive me? Are you willing to acknowledge me?” At that moment, Autumn’s eyes looked vibrant as she gazed at Sharon with anticipation.Mixed emotions were dwelling in Sharon’s chest. It seemed like she was muttering to herself, “Are you really my mother… but they said you went crazy…”Perhaps it was her comment that agitated Autumn. The woman who had appeared normal suddenly tensed her facial features, yelling, “Who said that I’m craz
She picked up the test tube and took a whiff of the liquid inside. This thing... It could not be regarded as perfume, but it was a specific step one would reach while making perfume.How could her mother even make this if she was crazy? If she could reach this step, it showed that she still had moments with a clear frame of mind.“Sienna…” Eugene chased after her.Autumn began to freak out once more after finally calming down. She anxiously stood in front of her daughter to protect her, treating her son as an enemy instead.“Get out! Don’t get any closer to my daughter!”Eugene knew very well what his mother would be like when her sickness overtook her. He would not be able to communicate with her at the moment. Hence, he merely ignored her and looked at Sharon instead while saying, “Get over here. We have to leave this place.”Sharon’s eyes met Eugene, and it seemed like she had made a decision earlier on. She said, “I want to bring Mom out of here, Brother.”Eugene’s pupils im
Inside the Newton household’s living room, the atmosphere was dim and everyone sat down without saying a word.After quite some time, Quinn was the first to speak. His murky eyes stared at Sharon coldly as he asked, “How did you break into Bamboo Garden?”The Bamboo Garden he spoke of was the place Sharon and Eugene’s mother was locked up. She heard that the area used to be a bamboo forest. Later, they got rid of most of the trees after she moved in.Sharon had not fully recovered her senses just yet. She never expected to meet her mother in this manner.“It was the Pomeranian who brought me in there,” she said in a low voice.The Pomeranian was their mother’s only companion, and it would occasionally run out to look for food.Many people from the Newton household had seen that dog before. They had all received orders from Kelly to give the dog some food if they saw it, but no one was allowed to harm it.Everyone thought that the dog came in from the outside and never pondered t
Sharon stared at Eugene’s injured forehead, and she could feel her anger cooling down slowly.Perhaps it was because he had witnessed the death of his eldest brother at the hands of their own mother, hence the reason why Eugene agreed to his grandfather’s decision in locking her up.However… Their mother was so kind toward her, and she was nothing like someone who would kill their big brother. Not to mention, when they first met, her mother had kept asking her for forgiveness as well…Could it be that her mother showed a better attitude toward her because she felt guilty for abandoning her in the past?She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. There was an endless struggle in her heart. She wondered if she should be saving her mother out of that place.Eugene seemed to be able to see through the conflict in her heart. They were still siblings, after all, and he used to be conflicted like her as well.“Sienna, Grandpa and I have our reasons for locking her up. On the one hand,
Upon hearing this, Sharon placed her hands down and raised her head to look at the man’s deep, obsidian eyes.For some reason, the moment she laid her eyes on him, grievance and sadness started surging uncontrollably inside her chest. Her eyes began to feel burning hot, and tears flowed down her cheeks.The sight of this immediately frightened Simon. He merely said a single sentence, and his tone was not at all fierce. Why on earth was she crying?Before he could say anything, the woman abruptly leaped over and hugged his waist. She buried her face into his abdomen and began to cry.Simon was even more at a loss at this point. How could he have the heart to raise his voice at her now?“Why are you crying? I wasn’t scolding you.” Although, he was still displeased at her for not answering his calls.As soon as he asked this, the woman started crying even louder.“Who bullied you? Tell me their names.” The only thing Simon could think of now was that someone had bullied her earlier
