The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 62
Mitchell's tall frame of over six feet swayed slightly. In an instant, he felt the wooden box in his hand blazing hot, almost as if it were burning through his heart.
Shakira pulled out a small card, "Every time there's a parents' meeting at school, no one shows up. The other kids say I'm an orphan. They bully me and look down on me. I only made my first friend in the second grade-she was the first to want to play with me and do homework together. But soon, she moved away. Before leaving, she gave me a card with her new address and phone number, telling me to visit her. I was so scared of losing that card that I carried it with me every day. But one day, it suddenly disappeared, and I knew I was alone again, with no friends."
Then she had a talisman that had seen better days, a charm adorned with symbols that once protected her, but it was lost. "When I was in sixth grade, I fell seriously ill. I had a fever that wouldn't break, and my heart raced at night-I just couldn't get better. My grandma, dragging her tired legs, went to a church. At the church, she prayed for this talisman..."
"That's enough!" Mitchell's heart felt heavy, almost suffocating. Even though these memories had nothing to do with him, he felt overwhelmed with emotion.
He closed the box and shoved it into Shakira's hands. He struggled to speak, his words coming out choked, "Now, everything belongs to its rightful owner."
Shakira placed the items back in the box just as she had taken them out. Suddenly, she giggled softly, her eyes shining with a kind of icy clarity. "You really think giving me these things means they're back where they belong? All my precious belongings from childhood were taken by Yvette. What about the rest? Can the life she stole from me ever be returned?"
Mitchell clenched his fists, "I will find out the truth. Don't worry, I'll make it right."
"Hah, it's unnecessary," Shakira replied coldly, dismissing his concern, "What happened in the past doesn't matter anymore. I just care about the future."
She looked deep into Mitchell's tormented expression, "You gave me these things, but does Yvette even know?"
Mitchell replied, "She hasn't come back yet."
"When she returns, she'll be furious." Shakira hinted.
Mitchell didn't know, but Shakira was well aware of the significance of those items-the ones meant to strip away her fortune. Without them, Yvette would face a string of misfortunes. Realizing this, Shakira said, "I don't owe you anything. Let's call these things a purchase." Mitchell instinctively protested, "You don't have to."
