Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

My Billionaire Family 456

Chapter

456

Since Garrick suddenly died, the Hawkins residence had become almost entirely deserted.

Gina was rarely home these days, always heading back to her parents' place with money.

Rita locked herself in the study all day, not setting foot outside.

As for Hannia, she seemed to have long dissociated herself from this family.

Rita's servants were still the same ones from the Hawkins residence at the foot of Azure Peak, the ones who had come with her when she married Rayburn. After Rita got divorced and moved back to the Hawkins residence, those servants returned with her.

At that moment, Nellie knocked on the study door with a tray of fruit.

"Come in," said Rita from inside.

Nellie pushed open the door and saw Rita, who was always elegantly dressed even when staying at home. Nellie said, "Ms. Hawkins, have some fruit. "It's good for your health and keeps you looking radiant."

Rita replied, "Alright, just leave it there."

put the fruit down and carefully asked Rita, "Ms. Hawkins, I've been with you for decades. Seeing you like this now, I can't help but feel sorry. "You're living alone. Why not move to Fresburg like Ms. Yulia Muller?

"At least there, you'll be closer to your son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. They can take better care of you, so you won't feel so lonely. "After all, you need someone to be around you."

Rita laughed at Nellie's words and chuckled bitterly. She said, "Age is just a number. What's the big deal?

"My roots are right here in Betrico. I'm not going anywhere.

"Don't worry, Nellie. I understand you care about me. Yulia is a caring girl, and she'll be back soon to stay with me."

Nellie didn't know what to say. Having been with the Hawkins family since she was a child and knowing Rita's determined nature, Nellie knew that Rita wouldn't stop at anything to get what she wanted.

In the past, Rita found a way to marry Rayburn. It seemed some traits never changed.

Nellie gently shook her head and said, "Alright then, as long as you're happy and comfortable.

"I'll be leaving now. If you want anything to eat, just let me know

The study's door closed once more, leaving Rita alone in the room.

She didn't eat the fruit that Nellie had just brought in. Instead, she picked up her glass from the coffee table and took a sip.
