“Mdm. Wright, my mom says my sister died the moment she was born. It must be true. Think about it. Who would dare to lie to my parents?” Nicole said sorrowfully.

Silvia figured she was right.

Although William had not been as powerful as he currently was back in the day, he was still someone with great potential in the world of politics. In fact, he had made a name for himself in the political arena, and no one would dare to lie to or play tricks on him.

Yet, for some reason, Silvia kept feeling uneasy.

“Don't worry, Mdm. Wright. The heavens always help people who deserve it. If my sister's alive, I'm sure I'll find her one day. Since she's my adoptive mother's biological daughter, she's my biological sister, too. I'll send people to locate her,” Nicole assured in a mature manner.

“You're a great child, Nickie. Your mother's lucky to have adopted you back then. You're such a caring child.” Tears welled up in Silvia's eyes. She had always loved how smart and rational Nicole was.

“Oh, you're flattering me. It's only a daughter's most basic responsibility to share her mother's burden. I'm willing to do anything as long as I can make my mother happy,” Nicole said casually.

She managed to make Silvia chuckle happily thanks to her sweet-talking skills.

Silvia could not stop admiring Claire for being so lucky to have such a caring daughter.

Right then, a host appeared on the LED television on the wall, reporting a piece of news. “According to the reports, the mother of Cayden Moore's twins, also known as the children of Trident Group's CEO, was revealed to be an unknown employee. Based on the report, Mr. Moore and the twins' mother, whose surname is Rumpley, had been in love for ten years. Though they were deeply in love, they separated for some time due to some misunderstanding. And now, they have reunited. It is widely rumored that Mr. Moore has gifted her with all kinds of expensive jewelry and a luxurious mansion to make her happy. In fact, rumor has it that Mr. Moore is currently planning a grand wedding. The netizens have different opinions about the news, and they're unsure if it is true.”

Avery's face was blurred on the television, so all the viewers could see was her long black hair and delicate face shape. Even the children's faces were blurred as well. Regardless, the sight of the family of four cuddling together made Nicole's eyes sore.

Suddenly, the coffee cup fell from her hand. The exquisite cup shattered as it landed on the ground. Even so, she still watched the news on the screen in a daze.

Her mind was buzzing. Avery is the twins' mother? How is that possible?

Nicole was completely shocked by the news, and her unusual behavior befuddled Silvia.

Concerned, Silvia asked, “What's wrong, Nickie?”

Nicole only returned to her senses after a long time. Looking at a loss, she answered, “I'm fine, Mdm. Wright. Maybe I'm just tired from all the recent filming. I'm so sorry I broke your cup.”

Silvia merely smiled and shook her head without saying anything.

While she listened to the news report, she mumbled, “Cayden rarely has scandals, nor does he fancy the media reporting nonsense about him. He always deals with them once he finds news like this. It's odd that they're reporting news about him this time. Then again, the media is always reporting baseless rumors. Most of them aren't real. But has the mother really been found? She looks quite familiar...”

Suddenly, Nicole stood up. “If there's nothing else, Mdm. Wright, I'll get going first. I'm feeling a little unwell. I'll come visit you another day.”

Silvia knew full well Nicole was a celebrity and usually had many jobs.

She thought little about Nicole's odd behavior and let her leave.

Nicole's thoughts were in disarray that she had forgotten to disguise herself before heading to Dylan's bar.

The moment she stepped into the building, some fans who were hanging out there recognized her instantly.

Nicole was no A-list celebrity. In fact, she only became famous for a short while because of the film she debuted in—Orphan. She was the kind of celebrity who had no acclaimed works and could not get famous no matter how hard she worked.

Even so, she had all kinds of filming opportunities thanks to her background. Although she had filmed many movies with bad ratings, she was still well-known in the entertainment industry. It was only natural for her to be recognized by her fans.

Seeing that Nicole was not with her bodyguards, someone screamed, “Ah! It's Nicole Lambert! I can't believe she's in a bar! My goddess, I love you. Can I have your signature?”

As Nicole was currently in a bad mood, she did not treat the fans who wanted her signature as nicely as she would usually.

It was rare to see a celebrity visiting a local bar. On top of that, most of the customers were excited youngsters. Upon noticing her arrival, they squeezed over and blocked Nicole's path. There were even some perverted men who seized the opportunity to touch her inappropriately.

She was a young and sweet celebrity who had a clean reputation, after all. Not only that, she had a prominent status—the daughter of the Lambert family. Women like her were usually out of the leagues of insignificant men like them. They thought it would be a waste if they did not take advantage of her now that she was in front of them.

“Give me your signature, Nicole. I really like you...”
