The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 615 Search For Biological Daughter

Meanwhile, at the Lambert family, Nicole had been plagued by nightmares lately. In her dreams, her misdeeds were exposed for all to see, leading to her adoptive parents abandoning her!

In her dream, Avery returned to the Lambert family, taunting her with the triumphant air of a victor. She dreamt of herself becoming a starving and freezing orphan again, at the mercy of others' bullying!

Ever since the day of the reunion banquet, Nicole's mental state had been quite poor.

Claire didn't dare to ask too much about what happened that day. She stayed at home with her, but her sighs grew deeper and deeper each time.

That noon, Nicole woke up from a nightmare, drenched in cold sweat.

The once spacious and cozy room now felt eerily silent, causing a sense of unease.

In a sudden fit of madness, Nicole dashed out of the room, barefoot.

The housekeeper in the living room was startled by Nicole, who looked like a disheveled ghost. “Ms. Lambert, what happened to you?”

Nicole looked around, but she couldn't find Claire. Gripping the housekeeper's collar in fear, she asked, “Where's my mom? I want to see my mom!”

She could sense it. After a series of scandals involving her, her adoptive father's attitude toward her had become distant, even somewhat cold. Now, the only one who could protect her was her adoptive mother.

“Mrs. Lambert is preparing lunch in the kitchen...” The housekeeper was clearly startled. “I'll call her right away.”

Claire also heard their conversation.
